NEW York, Jan. Special Telegram to
The BEE. There is not nearly so much en-
thusiasm over the Presidents association at
present as there was couple Of weeks ago
and some railway men OF this city are wait
ing for Gould to give some indication of keep
ing his promises to start the ball of reform
rolling. Gould was the lnstigator of the
new organization and announced that he
would be the first to abolish some of the OBJ
jectlonable features of the agency system
He made most eloquent plea for the forma-
tion of the association, anu promised all sorts
of things. After the association was formed
Gould said that, u Don second thought, the re-
forms should be made under the supervision
of the association, officially, although he had
previously stated, or was understood to state,
that he would take the initiative, without wait
ing for official action. He did, in fact cur
tail some of his eastern agencies of the Mis-
souri, Pacific and Union Pacihc, but the
promised reforms, as he was understood to
mean, were not forthcoming, nor are there
any indications of speedy adoption of them
Several other features of the wizards be-
fore and after actions, are attracting atten-
tion. There are few of the men who were
possibly sincere in attempting to enforce the
purposes of the association, who are getting
"a trif1e suspicious. They want to see Gould's
enthusiasm kept bubbling and some of the
promised reforms put in shape. The belief
is current that Gould does not want toset the
example in the reform line for reasons best
known to himself When a railway presi-
dent, who is member of the association,
was asked today what the next move of the
association will be, he replied:
"See Could. We are waiting to hear from

BERLIN, Jan. 90. - New York Herald
Cable-Special to The BEE. In the discus
sion on Koch's method, which was resumed
in tho Berlin Medical society yesterday even
ing, Prof. Virchow showed a preparation
made from the corpse of patient who had
been treated by the new method for pulmon-
ary tuberculosis and pleursy, whereas the
preparation showed symp oms of general
military tuberculosis. Virc ow did not ven
ture any definite opinion, however, on The
question as to whether death was caused in
consequence of the mistaken treatment DR..
Ewald expressed great satisfaction with
the therapeutic successes he had obtained
by Koch's method in the case OF
patients to whom he had applied 1t
in August at the hospital and whom he had
been able to send home long ago. Their con-
diion, on the whole, was very satisfactory
and he was convinced that Kochs remedy
would do more towards the cure of consump-
tion than anything previously known. AT
the same time, he admitted that
he had not yet seen any complete
cure. Heurgently advised his colleagues not
to treat all pulmonary patients indiscrimi'
nately by Koch's method, but to discriminate
very strictly In order to avoid unpleasant
accidents. Prof. Weber of Halle publishes a
report in today's number of the German
Medical Weekly, attributing little value tc
Koch's fluid for the diagnosis of tn uberculosis
and advising, rs other authorities have done
that at all events very small doses should be

of his intention at an early day to call the at

initiative and his opponents must wake up If
they want to deprive him of the leadership.
O'Shea will not down and insists on know
ing why Mccarthy said that Lockwood
could have put different complex ion into the
divorce suit had he cross examined Shea.
Lockwood denies having said So McCar-

ANXIOUS 10 d ET TO WORK.
Move to Postpone the Contest Until
Late in the Session.

LINCOLN, Neb., jan 22-GSpecial Tele-
gram 10 THE BEE. Peace sheds her DO
nign radiance over the warning factions to
night and the quiet Is unbroken ex xcept when
a sore independent refers to the supreme
court in such picturesque phrase as Ia con-
glomerated mass of human iniquity.n The
Independents must go through prescribed
routine to get into Joint convention again, and
they need do no scheming unless obstruction
is offered. The opposition are simply on the
defensive against passionate action and un-
fair consideration. Both camps are therefore
quiet, and news is next to nil.
The independents in the house have started
the machinery for another convention on
February s. The independents in the senate
are anxious to grind out some needed lcgisla-
tion, and suggest setting the contest for a
time subsequent to the forty days allowed
for the Introduction of bills. The contestees
are ready 10 go on with their trial pro-
viding they get square deal, but some
over Jealous triendma undertake TO oDstruct
the new concurrent solution. In due time
IT will go on the house calendar. There are
l20 bills ahead of 1t, which may have to be
disposed of before the resolution is reached,
unless the independents muster two-thirds
vote TO suspend the irIlos. Another delay
might be made in the senate II the opposition
should be so disposed. IL is not at all un-
likely, therefore, that the trial will be post
poned until late in February.
The independents want railroad regulation,
change in the usul'y law, and a few other
measures, If the contest be postponed, as In
diCated, and the legislature pass reasonable
bills that Governor Boyd can sign. shrewd
political prophets say they will not be sur
prised TO see the contest thrown out of court.
The signs point that way. There is grow.
ing contingent Of fair minded independents
who are not fighting for spoils but who do
most earnestly want few measures for the
relief OF the agricultural classes.

and that he committed suicide
while suffering from temporary in
sanity during an attack OF pneumonia.
The whole affair is shrouded in mystery.
Five days elapsed before the dukes death
was registered and the newspapers Join in
censuring the attempts of the various public
officials concerned TO hush the matter up. TO
such an extent was the policy Of secrecy fol-
lowed that even some OF the members OF the
dukes family were not aware OF the real
cause of bis death until the facts were pub
lishe ed In the newspapers.
At the inquest 1t was learned that the duke
was entirely alone when he committed sui
eide, having dismissed his nurses just mo-
meut before firing the fatal bullet Thecoro-
ner states that the inquest was held at the
late rcsid ence of the duke and that nothing
ont Of the usual course occurred. The jury
was chosen i'm the usual manner and the
house was open TO the public. The coroner

that American pork was now smuggled

therefore, he thought it better to admit it
openly. Herr Boetticher however, replied
that the government must decline to accept
