DIR. Vaughn Finds Out she Causes
OF Cholera snfHntum and Typhoid

of Cholera infHntum and Typhoid
Fever.
ANN ARBoR MGR, July 6.-The re-
gents of the University Of Michigan last
year built and equipped laboratory OF
hygiene al the request OF the State Board
of Health. One OF the objects OF this
laboratory was the investigation OF the
csusations of diseases, and this branch
has been under the supervision OF Victor
o. Vaughn, the eminent toxicologist,
who q few years ago gave the world
his discovery of tyrotoxioon, the poison
so often existing in milk, cheese and ice
cream. BE has now, II 10 alleged, added
another triumph to his former SUCCESS in
tho discovery OF the causes Of cholera
iafantum and typhoid fever. He an
nounces that these disenses ere due to
albumenous poisons, theory which sub
vents oil previous theories In regards to
their origin.
DR.. Vaughn discovered the frat point
last March, and has since added four
more. He has isolated three polsons,
which were obtained from the germs in
cholera infAntum, and two from, the
germs in typhoid fever. These poisons,
he claims, are fatal In any quantity, and
resemble closely in their action the
venom of rattlesnake. They are
Of the nature of ferments,
and are the growth of germs.
DIR. Vaughn took the germs from the in
testines of persons who had died from
the diseases, and placed them in TASKS
containing sterilized meat. The flask was
then set in an incubator, in which the
temperature was the same as the human
body. A long, complicated and conse-
quently. ineIplioablo chemical process
followed and the poison which resembles
partially Stacked lime was extracted. Ami
mails being inooulated with the product
displayed the same symptoms as the per-
sons suffering from one or the other of
the diseases. A quantity the size OF pea
killed guinea pig in ~ houra, while
twentieth of grain is fatal, but killed
onfy after from 10 to 80 days. DR..
Vaughn has not named these poisoDs as
yet and will now devote himself to en-
deavoring to discover antidotes for them.

Judge Bail Dismasses the Charge
Against Vaudeville ,. Anderson.
: The postponed case involving a charge
of assault and battery brought by Police
{ man James Hershock against Vaudeville
j. Anderson, colosed, for attaching the
officer during a fFacss at Eighth and
Scott streets on July 4th, occupied almost
-four hours of the courts attention at the
municipal sessions Monday evening. w.
y. Hilles, Eco, appeared for the defence.
The gist OF Hershock's testimony was to
the effect that while quelling the disturb
anoe Vaudeville interfered aud that his
Interference was Of such q nature that
the officer had to give his attention to
him when Anderson's course of action
developed into an assault on the officer.
The prisoner was cautioned when he
! Informed the officer that he knew
4 more law in five minutes than Her.
shock did in one hour, and that
he would have his brass buttons
stripped of in three days. He then took
hold of Anderson to arrest him and was
struck In the fkoe and butted in the
stomach. Andefson's appearance plainly
Indicated that he had been pretty roughly
handled. At the same time there was no
doubt but that his Interference and man.
ner towards the officer tended to provoke
and develop possible riot. While the
officer was arresting Anderson somebody
threw brick, striking Hershock in the
back of the head. number of colored
witnesses testified to having demonstrated
with the officer for his treatment OF the
prisoner. There was little direct evil
dsnoe, however, TO show that Anderson
committed himself beyond remonstrating
with the glitter.
! Judge Ball in rendering his decision re-
ferred to the police officers good record
and also to the difficulties continually
arising in his district which is oueof very
bad repute. He thought however that
Mr.. Rershock in the present case had
been somewhat hasty aud dismissed the
case.
