dozen others were badly hurt. Casey and
CasSens were driving along Harrison street
in a buggy, when they encountered crowd
of intoxicated Greeks near the corner OF
Clinton street The Greeks refused to get out
of the road. and q violent alteration en-
sued. They jumpe1 into the buggy and at
tacsed the young men with knives. Caskens
and Casey drew their revolvers and fired
right and left. The Greeks succeeded how
ever, in wrestling away the revolvers, and 1t
began to look as if the young men would be
killed outright when the patrol
wagon loaded with police dashed up.
When the Greeks saw the police
they rushed into house on the corner
and barricaded the door. Caskens and Casey,
each having over dozen wounds, were s2nt
to the hospital. Lieutenant Cosgrove pre-
pared to storm tho dwelling in which the
Greeks had entrenched themselves a heavy
scantling was secured, and amid the howls
and wells OF the Greeks, the officers battered
down the door. A terrible hand-to-han1
struggle then took place in the hall. When
tho melee was over eighteen Greeks stunned
anil bleeding from the police clubs, were
thrown into the patrol wagon and taken OF

KOCH'S SECRET.
The German Scientist Reveals His
Lymph's Ingredients.

The German Scientist Reveals His
Lymph's Ingredients.
The long talked of secret of the ingredients
entering into the composition Of Professor
Rocks famous lymph has been at last given
to the world at large.
Professor Koch states that his lymph is
composed of pure generated tuberculous
forms from forty to fifty per cent. OF the
compound. :,
The lymph, he says is derivative OF
albumen, and acknowledges that it contains
a mass of necrotic substance that attacks
even certain sound tissues Of the body when
injected.
His remedy simply consists in powerful
elycerine extract derived from the pure cul-
ovation Of the specific microbes which, en-
tering the lungs, cause consumption ana are
known as tubercle bacilli.
When these tiny organisms get into the
living tissue OF the body they produce pol
son, which gradually breaks down the tissue
till it becomes necrotic, or dead matter, and
wasting suppuration ensues.
By inoculating the consumptive with hls
preparation from the pure culture Of the It's
sue, destroying tubercle bacilli themselves,
he so increases the amount Of ne
crotizing substance in the lung
issues that the dead matter swamps the in-
vading bacilary force, cutting in off from its
only means Of subsistence it the living pro-
toplasm, and the decaying part Of the tissue
is detached, carrying with it the enclosed
microbes and ejecting them from the field.
To use a military phrase the bacteria are
thus thrown into the position Of an army
corps ''in the air'-powerless to strike an
effective bow and compelled to retire in dis.
appointment. The affected lung simply
parts with portion of its tissue to save
itself and the whole body from destruction.
Surgeon General Hammond seys that. a
lymph factory will be started at the Marine
Hospital, New York Harbor.

A score Of members of the American As
sociation for the Cure Of Inebriety mst
at the Academy Of Medicine In New
York City and listened to paper by d.. D.
D. T. Crothers, Of Hartford, on "Alcoholic
Inebriety and Life Insurance." DR..
Crothers held that the use Of alcohol In any
quantity was of necessity conducive In a de-
gree to the shortening Of life, and therefore,
drinking men were not as good insurance
risks as abstainers. He thought that insur-
ance companies which were so careful to
guard against all other ife-shortening
agencies were very lax in the matter OF
moderate drinking risks" -ziss
DR.. j. B. Mattison. of Brooklyn, read q
paper on "Opium Addiction as Related to
Life Insurance" As opium risks areinyari-
ably refused by insurance companies, DR..
Mattison devoted himself to considering how.
long after stopping the use Of opium a man
might safely be given policy OF Insurance..
He quoted authorities which said all the way
from three to ten years. His own opinion
was that if the applicant had refrained from
the use Of opium for three years, and was
otherwise in good heath, he might be ac-
cepted as arisk. 49,.

friends who knew Of the attack Of illness
which carried him off. Death occurred at
$40 In the afternoon. The end was quiet
and peaceful and came after period Of un-
consciousness lasting about twenty-four
hours.
Mr.. Bancroft for some years past had
been in the habit of spending about five
months in Newport, r. l., and passing the
winter and colder season Of the year in Wash
ington,
His whole illness was less than three days.
he failed rapidly, and became unconscious
In the afternoon, in which state he remained
until the end.
It was decided that interment should take
place in Worcester, Mass, where Mr.. Ban
croft's wife Is buried.
