LONDON, July 13.-The statement which
has been current that Prof. Won Bergman,
the celebrated Berlin physician, has been en-
gagged in making series of experiments by
inoculating pauper patients with cancerous
matter, has naturally created q great deal
of discussion here. Morrell Mackenzie
when seen to-day about the matter, said;
81 scarcely believe such en- inhuman ex-
pertinent has been made by Prof. Won
Bergman. Besides, such an experiment
would be absolutely valueless as it is al
ready well known that cancer is frequently
communicated TO a healthy structure
contiguous to the disease This is shown
more especially in the side OF the mouth
and throat where cancer tissue gratis it.

experiment as Bergman is alleged TO have
made were tried in England, the operator

Harvest Prospects IN Europe.

WASHINGTON, July 43-A report on the
harvest prospects in France and Europe
has been received at the state department
from Commercial Agent Griffin, of
Limoges, France. The National Millers'
association, the report says, has issued an
estimate showing the field of wheat for
1891 to be 81 per cent less than the harvest
OF 1890. Russia, Tunis, Egypt, Roumania
and some OF the Danuben provinces have a
fair harvest. In Hungary it will be below
the average this year. The estimates
given by the millers, the report says, are
optimistic, their desire to create the i'm
preston there is a,better supply than really
exists is done with the purpose that they
want to buy grain as cheaply as possible in
those countries that have an abundance to
export In conclusion the report says not
only France, but all Europe, is looking
lougingly to the wheat fields Of the United
States
