WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our regular Correspondent

Nfrom our regulnr Oorrcsponuont)
WASHINGTON, ID. O. Feb, 10, 1890
The imperative need Of more pub
lie buildings in Washington has been
much talked OF in both ends OF the
Capitol, since Senator Morrill,
brought out the fact that S121,700
a year was being paid out by the
Government for rents in this city,
and that owing to tie overcrowded
condition OF the Government build
ings the amount was continuously in
creasing. The sentiment in Congress
seems to be in favor OF erecting the
buildings necessary to carry on the
business of the Government, and it
is probable that early action will be
taken in the matter. This is particu-
larry necessary in the case ofthe Gov
eminent printing office, ramshackle-
ty, unhealthy old rat-trap which will
some day fall down and kill several
hundred of its sardine-packed occu.
pants If it is not replaced by q new
building.
The hearings in the Ohio ballot,
box forgeries still go merrily on, but
it is expected that this week will end
them. Whatever the committee may
do, the impartial public has convicted
Foraker and Halstead Of trying to
destroy mans good name with q
paper which they knew to be forged.
Belief that the new Rules are to be
'dopted by the House mas brought
swarm of lobbyists of all descrip-
ions to Washington in the hope of
,etting part of the spoils. This
s the way the matter strikes Repre-
Crisp, of Georgia, one of
he most clear headed men in the
House: when you consider the
propositions for immense expeditures
+ public money that are being urged
pom this Congress, and that these {
lules make the way clear for them,
on do not have to be a prophet to
ee that the money asked for by Con-
ress is apt to overbalance that held

THE TUnKRoULosIs CURE.

Professor K0ch,s Method OF Treat.
| ment Explained TO a Large Number
OF Foreign Doctors-yienna Physi-
clans Express Doubts rs TO the
Radical Cure of Lupus.
BERLIN, Nov. 18.-Professor Gerhardt to-
day explained Koch's method to large
number of foreign doctors, exhibiting
three cases in illustration. The first was
case of aggravated disease of the throat.
The patient received an injection yesterday
of two milligrams of the lymph. To-day
there was decided reaction and cure is
expected. The second was case of phthi-
sis, in which the treatment had already
been attended with marked success In
the third case the treatment was applied as
a means of diagnosis, and as no reaction
followed Professor Gerhardt :. assumed
that the patient was free from tuber-
culosis. In the course of q lecture
Professor Gerhardt warned his hearers
against the idea that Koch's treatment
merely required the injection of the lymph
to drive out the disease. 1t has been ar
ranged that after fresh supplies have
been prepared the lymph shall be dis
tributed, first among the laboratories and
hospitals of Berlin; next among UNIVERSE
Ges ana large uoSpltaiS tnrOuSnOut Ger-
many; then among the hospitals of Vienna,
Paris and London and lastly among
practitioners. Only small portions of the
lymph have as yet been sent abroad-to
DR.. Waltzoldt of San Reno, and to doc
tor at Davos.
VIENNA, Nov. 18.4-Doctors who have
returned from Berlin express doubts as to
the radical cure of lupus by Koch's treat
ment. They say that in some of the cases
declared to be cured suspicious looking
pustules were seen breaking out afresh
near the cicatrized wounds. The leading
Austrian specialists warn the faculty
against over-estimating the efficacy of
Koch's method. They affirm that up to
the present time not single case of I'M
doubted and permanent cure has been re-
corded. They also think it impossible
that the strong reaction of the remedy
on diseased tissue may prove dangerous to
weak lungs and interfere with respiration.
Three deaths attributed to this Cause have
already been reported.
4 BERLIN, Nov. 18.-Professor Koch is
'chagrined over the temperance of lupus
in patient reported as cured. This is
the only instance, however, of the return
of the disease after supposed cure.
