cloak makers continue belligerent, and
would, it is thought, have committed sew
eral violent assaults yesterday had il not
been for the waltchfulness of the police.
The contractors say there is some secret in
fiGence keeping up this strike. The mea
have had several concessions made and the
labor agitators who control them have
promised several times to send the men
back to work. They have not done so, how
ever. One CT the most prominent COZ
tractors says Anarchists are working on the
strikers and trying to get up serious riot.

large scale, with somewhat ambitious
claims concerning its ability TO cure large

the enterprise are influential and wealthy
1t is proposed to adopt the methods re-
Gently reported TO be efficacious in Ger
many and England with the care of con-
sumptives. Dr.. Mays, one of the Trustees
makes this claim. There are ten thou
sand consumptives annually in this city.
We shall be able to cure al least forty per
cent. of this number, or four thousand per
annum."
The feature of the new method seeking
to cure the consumptive of the Atlantic
coast is thus described: The patient is in
troduced into an air-tight compartment,
from which the air has been exhausted.
Then the room is filed with oxygen, or
nitrous oxide, or any vapor containing
medicine. By inhaling this vaporous med
ieine the patient is liable 10 be cured. The
hospital will be purely charitable. There
will be no paying patients.
