LONDON, Jan. 14-.The Medical Press
Circular states that Prot. Virchow reports
that in the course OF his examination in
Berlin OF the bodies of 21 patients who had
died after they had undergone treatment
with the Koch lymph, be observed the in
jections of the fluid caused bacilli to null
tiply in the body and so to parts in which
there had previously been none, thus virtu-
ally generating new affection.
'This," says the periodical, sis start
ling statement, concerning which we shall
probably hear more. Meantime, it is GER
tain that the Vinennese psychologists have
subjected the fluid to a searching analysis.
They claim that it does not contain any
animal alkaloid, and that its effects are due
to the presence of a tox-albuminate sus-
pended, or rather dissolved, in dilute solu-
tion OF chloride of sodium. Should Prof.
Virchow's observations be confirmed, the
composition of the fluid will cease to have
any Importance.

SENSATIONAL LABOR DEVELOPMENTS.

Fees, and Employers Import Help.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE pIspATcui
FINDLAY, Jan. 1.-THE Window Glass
Workers Association OF this city and Fostoria
are engaged in an investigation which promises
to develop into a sensation. 1t is said that
some time ago the Window Glass Workers
Union dcslrous of keeping out imported work
men and of making difficult admission to their
ranks, placed the initiation fee of the organiza-
tion at the rate Of $500. since which time a very
small number of foreigners have been able to
get in, as few of them had that much money or
could get it.
At Fostoria, some foreigners, newly arrived,
were able to meet the remarkable initiation
fee aad secure the privilege of the organiza-
tion. The surprise at their ability to meet the
eXhorbtant demand led to an investigation
which seems about to be fruitful. 1t is now
claimed the proof will shortly be furnished that
leading Fos:oria window glass manufacturer,
whose name is well known, has not orly
brought these men to America under contract,
but that he has furnished thea, money to 60
