LONDON, Nov. j.-Michael Davitts latest
instalment OF his dynamite re'emuons
takes leave Of McDermott and recapitulates
the facts already stated. In concluding this
part Of his exposures Davitt appeals 10 the
Home secretary in the following words
.sThe men whom McDermott ensnared were
uilty only through the agency OF those
who put dynamite into their hands, or sup
plied them with money with which

ALLEGED BRITISH SPIES.
-
The idea that the two British officers who
arrived in New York on the Aller saturda!
are believed by Dillon and OBrien 10 De
spies Of the British Government is absurd.
| They are Lieutenant W. X. Jones Byron Oh
the aKing's Own" Hussars, who is in the
sixty.tourth wear of his service, and Lieu
tenant Edmund C.. Hamilton, who has seen
| two years service. Both are well-known
and popular officers in the service, and are

KOCH's DISCOVERY.
The Lancet. referring to the fact that DR.
Samuel q. Dixon. of Philadelphia, claims
he discovered the method of curing con-
sumption by incubation before Professor
Koch, saws: "llOw easy matter II Il
10 claim priority, and how diiiicui'
10 substantiate the claim is shown
| by Dixon's claim in support of his con
tentiOn that he established inoculatlon
| in animals for the tubercular bacillus. Dr
Dixon mentions that he had met Win
success in preventing susceptibility tC
phthisis by inoculating animals with what
he believed to be an unusual form Of
turbercular bacillus, and that ne sue
ceeded in producing marked morphologica
change in this bacillus; doing this by sub
ecting il 10 different degrees OF tempera
ture. moisture pressure. and changes IN 1000
stufrs. As, however, DIR. Dixon IS unable tC
saw how this immunity was produced, anC
as he refers it entirely to the chemical
products Of tubercular bacillus remaining
and acting on the tissues of the body, whilst
his modified bacIlli are killed in the tissues
and as the experiments are vague anC
bring forward no points not already known
it is to be feared that DR.. Dixon's claim FOL
priority of the discovery and the publlca
| ton must for the present remain In aDey
ance."
