Catarrh in the Head, and who
has been perfectly cured by the

DEATH IN THE WATER.
Some Drowning Persons are Suffocnted,
Others Die of Apopiexy.

Some Drowning Persons are Suffocnted,
Others Die of Apoplexy.
st. Louis Post-Dispatch.l
Death in the water can only happen in
two ways. The drowning person suffocates
He breathes water into his lungs in
stead of air and also swallows
considerable quantity of water.
Death through suffocation does not
occur at once, but only after a compare
lively long struggle with the elements. The
unfortunate man has then the appearance of
one dying of strangulation. His face is
purple in color and swollen, the lips are
purple and the eyes bloodshot, his mouth is
filled with toamy substance and the stom-
ach, the windpipe and the lungs contain
much water.
Occasionally drowned person presents
an altogether different appearance. The face
is pale, limp and there is little or no foam
in the mouth. These symptoms indicate that
death did not follow by reason OF strangula-
tion, but was brought about by faintlng
spell or stroke OF apopiexy. In this case
breathing stopped at once, the epiglottis
closed convulsively, so that little or no
water entered the lungs. This appearance is
favorable, for in this case the chances for re-
suscitation are greater than in the former.
The question is often asked. How long
must q person remain under water before
drowning? The time cannot be determined.
1t has been proven that life need not be ex-
tinct in body which has been under water
for several hours, and that some times in
such cases resuscitation was achieved by
continued exertions OF several hours dura-
tion on the part of the rescuers.

MAGNATES In CONFERENCE.
AGAIN TALK OF TRANSFERRING THE
LOCAL LEAGUE CLUB.

indianapolis Only Too Eager to Once More
Enter the Field-Prestdent Day Says
the Matter Could be Easily Arranged
NO Danger of General Smash.
ESPECIAL rELEeRAM TO THE DIsPArcH.i
NEW YORK, May Three prominent
National League officials were in town to-
night. They were President Spalding, of
the Chicago Club; Secretary David Haw-
ley, Of Cleveland, and j. Palmer O'Neill,
OF Pittsburg. What brought these magnates
here at this time could not be
definitely ascertained, but there cansbe no
question that the trio, in addition to Presi-
dents Day and Byrnes, had quite a lengthy
conference this afternoon. The question
is, what was that business talk?
1t is claimed that Pittsburg and
Cleveland are. showing signs of
distress. Upon the other hand it is stated
that some of the members want the League
schedule changed. But Mr.. Day is the au-
thority for the statement that, under the
present arrangement Of affairs, the schedule
will not be changed
A DISPATCH reporter called on Mr.. Day.
ut is fact" said he, "that the clubs in the
National League are not doing as
we'll financially as might be wished. There
is not club in the organization but what
will lose money, unless there is a change in
the attendance. 1 calculate that the New
York club will lose $25, 900 on the season"
But isn't there possibility that at least
one, il not two clubs will drop out of the
League before the season ends?"
Il cannot say that there is. Suppose such
was the case. The League, in my opinion,
would be just as we'll off with six clubs"
us it not fact that the poor attendance
at Pittsburg has had depressing effect
upon the officials of the club?"
There is no doubt but that Pittsburg has
suffered a great deal financially, but the
officials expected that"
Suppose Pittsburg should retire, would
there be any trouble in filling the va
cancy?"
Not at all. Remember that don't an
ticipate such an event, but if Pittsburg
were to go Indianapolis would take that
city's place in an instant"
There is claimed to be weakening in
the Cleveland club?"
"Oh, that is a mistake. know whereof
1 speak when say there is hardly posi-
bility of Cleveland's retiring from the
League. The officials there don't expect to
make any money, on the other hand they
expect to lose great deal"
will there be any trouble in case of
Pittsbury's retirement or transferring its
players to Indianapolis"
"Why should there be? A player VINO
has an engagement in either the National or
Players Leaq ue is in luck. There are actually
making more money than their employers.
If they were to be paid by the amount of
gate receipts JUST now they would be enti-
tied to about one-fifth of their present
salary"

THE VETERANS KICKING.
Very Few of Them Satisfied With the Nor
rilI Pension Bill.
FROM A STAFF CORRESPONDENT.

FROM n sTArF COhRESPONDRNT.1
WASHINGTON. May THE Command
ant OF Sayler Post No. 249, G. A. R., Ne
braska, has written letter here in which
he gives the reasons why the post to which
he is attached is not particularly anxious
for the passage of the Morrill, service pen
sion bill. He points out the fact that of the
members of the post only four would be
benefited, as only four are over 60 years of
age, and each of these served but 120 DAYS
in the army. He says that seven OF the
post served four years or more, and that
they will have to wait ten years before re-
ceiving any Benefits under the Morrill, bill.
Fifteen men served for over three years,
ten from one to two and half years, and
i've served less than year.
He considers these facts as another reason
why the Morrill, bill should not be enacted
into law, as it will benefit only those who
served their country least, and will leave
tine others out in the cold until they shall
have reached the age limit, Notwithstanding
the fact that some of them served in the
army ten times as long as the four who
would 5e benefited. This statement is only
a sample one. Similar letters have been re-
ceived from all over the West in relation TO
the matter, and it is one of the reasons why
the Senate is not SO particularly anxious to
act at once upon the Morrill, pension bill,
which passed the House last week.

DEATH OF A PEARL.
The Story Connected With the Decay Of One |
Precious Gem.

The Story Connected With the Decay Of One
Precious Gem.
st. Louis Globe-Dem ocrat.]
One peculiarity of pearls is that unlike
other precious gems, they are liable to de-
cay. Occasionally valuable pearl changes
color, seems to be attacked with deadly
disease, and crumbles into dust. Such is
reputed to have been the fate of the most
magnificent specimen ever known. 1t was
found by an ignorant fisherman, who dis
posed of it for an Insignificant sum. Passing
through successive hands, it finally became
the property of Russian merchant and
found possessor who knew its immense value
and priced it accordingly. He kept it care
fully in a secluded room of his magnificent
mansion, apart from all other of his treas
ures. 1t was the wonder and admiration
of favored friends who were permitted to
look at it. The merchant finally became
involved in q political conspiracy and fled
to Paris, taking his one great treasure with
him.
He kept it hidden for a time. but at last
consented to show it to some distinguished
lovers of precious stones. But when he
opened the casket he fell back in dismay
and staggered as though stricken with
death. The gem had begun to change color.
A fatal disease had attacked it. 1t soon
was worthless heap OF white powder, and
the once wealthy merchant was a pauper
The death of pearl is caused by decompo-
stion of the animal membrane which en-
tiers into its substance.

The Distinguished Guest Who Sought the
Repose of the Seventh Avenue Hotel
He Receives an Exceedingly Harsh Re-
pulse and Reiires.
Yesterday forenoon gentleman of leisure,
whose shirt collar had evidently done duty
in several driving storms and whose toes
had emerged from his shoes to take view
of the eighthour struggle, sauntered up to
the register counter OF the Seventh
Avenue Hotel. He called for pen
in tone which absolutely awaked front
from his comfortable slumber. Ed Lands
passed pen to the gentleman without lift
ing his eyes from the pile of $50 bills he was
counting. Then it occurred to him to take
glance at the newcomer, because the fel-
low had come in between train times. As
the clerk lifted his handsome hazel eyes he
saw an unshaved, unkempt, dirty and
ragged son of the highway. Three weeks
had passed since a razor had touched
his bronzed cheek. His hair was long and
his nose was red, while his clothes were evil
IDENTIFY relics of Stonewall Jackson's foot
cavalry. "Ah," said Colonel Lands,
good morning." "Good morning." said
the new patron. And he finished his sigma
ture with flourish. 1t read, "Nicor Bern
adotte the Seventh" Mr.. Lands drew
strong breath, strong because much OF it
was supplied by the respiration of the gen.
tleman in front of the counter. He had
heard of the celebrated Bernadotte family
of France. which had supplied King to
the throne of Sweden. Here, then, was
descendant of that distinguished race. But
Mr.Landis was not overpowered blythe strong
odor of royalty which pervaded the corridor.
He gaZed at the Seventh Bernadotte with a
cold, penetrating look, and said simply,
"Goodby." The visitor was apparently
startled He turned and glanced at the
clerk as if he had understood imperfectly.
Again Mr. Lands said: "Goodby."
Then the Bernadotte said, with naughty
accent, "I'll see you again." and he strobe
into the raw outdoors. He heard, as the
swinging doors famed the close atmosphere
behind him, Mr.. Lands fond "Goodby."

A MIRACULOUS RECOVERY.
ONE VICTIM OF THE GAS JET SAVED BY
NEW BLOOD.


A Young Shop Girl Supplied With the
Necessary Fluid From the Arm of
mechnnfc-An Operation tho Result
OF which Was Long In Doubt.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH;
NEW YORK, May Lizzie Cunning
ham, young shopgirl, was found uncon-
scious in bed at her home, 206 Eighth ave-
nue., on the morning of January 6. Beside
her lay her friend, Mary Failon a seam
stress, dead. The unlighted gas let was
wide open and the room was fuII of
gas. Miss Cunningham was taken in a
comatose condition to the New York Hos
pital. She failed to rally after receiving
the usual treatment, so on January her
physician decided to try the TRANSMISSION of
blood.
In two operations 40 ounces of blood
poisoned by the inhaled gas, had been drawn
from her. Amos A. Lincoln, big, healthy
telegraph linemsn, under treatment for
muscular affection of the arms, volun-
teered to give the blood needed to
fill her veins. About % ounces were drawn
from his right arm into a basin containing
phosphate of soda, which was intended to
keep the blood from coagulating. A little
rubber pipe terminating in glass tube
was attached to the bottom of the vessel,
which was elevated several feet above the
girls body. The glass end of the tube was
inserted in the radial artery in her wrist
and Amos Lincoln's blood was let
into her veins. Miss Cunningham
remained unconscious until January 9.
She then revived enough to speak little,
but soon sunk back into unconsciousness
from which she was revived during the next
four days only occasionally, and with great
difficulty.
On the 18th she began to show symptoms
of improvement, although her body was
totally paralyzed, and her mind was
inactive and clouded. The paralysis con-
tinued until February when Miss
Cunningham began sitting up in bed and
occasionally leaving it. She continued to
convalesce slowly, and day before yesterday
was sent home with only a slight
halt in her gait and general
stiffness of her movements to tell of her mar
row escape from death DR.. Robert f. Weir,
the attending physician, said to-day that,
despite the unusual length and strenuous
ness of her struggle for life, she was just
about as sound as ever in mind and body.
