BEWARE OF BIG HEAD.
In this connection an interview with him
published in the StockhOlder this morning
is interesting. He is quoted as follows
GOOD will come out Of the present depres
sion. Some railroad managers will not fee
as big as they did a few months ago. IhayC
noticed mellowing already on the paIt Of
few of them. The big head is a terrible
disease. and if ever getit hope my friends
will put me in an asylum. The managers
Of railroads should feel themselves response
| BILE to the bond and stockholders, and the
latter will, IN future, assert their rights in q
way that will correct the evils from which
they have suffered the few past years."
sUCCrs FAST,
Signor Succi is beginning to fail. lie
shows the effects Of his battle with starva.
tion. 1t is thirteen days since he began his
voluntary task. He is now hungry and adj
mits it. The craving of the stomach fol
food at this period OF the task is something
terrible, he says. He weighed to-day l255i
pounds, which is 2lH pounds less than
when he began the fast.
TO STUDY KOCH's METHODS.
Accompanying DIR. II. =. LOOMS, the
visiting physician to Bellevue, who left for
Berlin to-day on the steamship 1raye Ia

DR.. Henry T. Nagle, deputy-registra OF
the Bureau Of Vital Statistics Of the Board
of Health. of this city, said today that DR..
kOch's discovery Of a cure for consumption
by incubation was by no means new one.
Eighteen years ago" said the Doctor, "a
paper on incubation for consumption was
read before the Academy Of Sciences by DR..
Leslie Miller, an old practitioner of this
city. DR.. Miller made some experiments,
but he was poor and unable TO make way
tor his theories"
THE T.. NJ. l..
The Peoples Municipal League does not
propose to stay buried under shower OF
ballots like the babes in the wood under
their shrOud of leaves. At recent meet
ing of the Executive Committee it was de-
cided 10 continue the League as a perma-
nent organization, and Mr.. Wheeler III.
Peckham was authorized 10 appoint sub
committee Of live to formulate a plan for
the ither work Of the League, and 10 pre-
pare an address to the public. Considering
the vote cast at the last election the Demo
crats of this city hope the p. VI. l.. "has come
to tay."
MORE SEN ATORIAL ASPIRANTS.
Meanwhile the list Of candidates for the
United States senate is swelling. Eleven
Democrats have already been named for
tn senatOrship, although 1t mus. be admit
ted that the candidacy Of most Of them ha,
no more substantial foundation than that OF
being mentioned in the newspapers. The
aspirants, if such they may be termed, are
smith NJ. Weed. Of Plattsburg; Wilson ;.
Bissel, of Buffalo; Lieutenant Governor
Edward +. Jones, Of BinghamtOn; eX-Sena-
tor George Raines, of Rochester; Mayor
Alfred Z. Chaplin. Of Brooklyn; eN-Mayor
Edward Murphy, Jr.' OF Iroyj ex-senator
John Boyd Thacher. OF Albany: Comptroller
Edward Wemple, of Fulionyile; Congress
man Ashbel =. Fitch, of New York; and
Governor David Is. Hill, Of Albany, former
" of Elmira.
Only two Democrats of prominence have
declared that the Senatorship has no charms
for them-William Collins Whitney aud
CONGRESSMAN Roswell L. Flower, of New
York. There is another name that has
been placed in the field, one that is cOnsId-
cred by many to be formidable candidate.
1t is none other than eX-COngressman, eX-
General, ex.Minister, and Sheriff Daniel J..
Sickles. His name has been mentioned.
even by Governor Hill, as man fitted toI
the place in every way, but his advanced
years--he is now iXty-seyen-althOugh M
full yig0r Of all his faculties, is bar 10 the
minds Of Younger Democrats. The fact that
eleven candidates should have blossomed
within fortnight illustrates how rich is
the Democratic party, and how well it is
distributed over the State.

REMARKABLE OPERATION.
Another surgical operation, fully as mar
yelous in its way as the inOculatlOns o
Koch and Pasteur are in another depart
ment of therapeutics, was performed at the
| Charity Hospital on Wards Island recently
! by DR.. A. NJ. Phelps, OF the University Med
| ical College OF New York. The operation
is considered one OF the most remarkable
surgical experiments in the history OF medi
cal science. 1t was case where the bOn'
of the leg of living dog was ingraited int
that Of boy. The operation took place
before a gathering Of thirty scientific mer
and medical students.
