PHILADELPHIA, Pa, May l6 In all
the hospitals of the city the use of the
Koch lymph for the cure of tuberculosis
in man and cattle has been practically
discontinued. Where there is no absolute
discontinuance of the toxic agent, it is
only being experimental with in a few
selected cases. Even 10 these special
cases the treatment OF the lymph is be-
coming narrower and narrower in scope.
Resident physicians of the hospital say
the fluid has proved to be of such small
value that, together with the great danger
attached to experimentation, there is no
reasonable escape from abandoning it. At
the home for consumptives, at Chestnut
hill, and also at the male branch of that
Insulation, All Spruce street, the Koch
lymph has been superseded by a new
treatment. DIR. VIM. NJ. Angney, visit
ing physician OF both institutions, says
that the lymph has failed utterly. save in
a single case. The cure of hat patient
is so uncertain. however. that no good has
come from the experiments. The new
treatment that DR.. AngneY has instituted
is one advocated by two Detroit physi-
clans. 1t consists of inhalation of chlor-
ine and hypodermic medication by chlJr-
ide of gold and soda aud a solution of
iodine. The value OF this new treatment
has not vet been determined.
At the Jefferson hospital experiments
with the celebrated German physicians
fluid have been brought to a close. 1t is
known that DR.. Da Costa considered the
remedy too dangerous for experiment, be-
cause there was no certain knowledge as
to its best use. DIR. }. VIM. White says
the fluid is being used at the University
hospital in selected cases. The expert
ments. he added. were being confined TO
narrower fields steadily. The same state
ment is gwen by the physicians at the
German hospital. In the rest Of the hos
pltals. where there have been but a few
experiments, the lymph has almost be
come a stranger. 1t has leaked out that
the tuberculosis commission of the veter-
mary department of the university of
Pennsylvania has abandoned its expert
ments with Koch lymph. and a majority
of the members OF the commission are of
the opinion that both as a curative aud
~diagnostic agent the fluid is valueless.

BERLIN, May l6.-The negotiations
for a German-A Austrian commercial treaty
with Suain have become curlously in
volved with the reciprocity convention
proposed BY the United States. The
German embassy at Madrid sent a DIS
patch to the effect that the Spanish min-
lister of foreign affairs had received the
overtures for a treaty with Germany f,vor-
ably and told the German ambassador
generally on the principle of reciprocity
as far as was compatible with the protec-
ton policy. Since this, however, the
concession TO the United States has be.
come known. This renders difficult any
treaty with European powers. Spain
has agreed to give American imports into
Cuba and Porto Rico a differential rate
of % per cent against similar Im-
ports from all other countries,
whether OF not they conclude treaties with
Spain. Such a privilege, constituting a
practical customs union between the
United States aud the Spanish Antilles.
blocks further negotiations which the
German ambassador had undertaken SIM
ultaneously with the Austrian, Italian and
Belgian ministers. Spain has been in
vIted to send a delegate to the customs
conference at Vienna, where the difficulty
might be discussed. German traffic with
the Antilles is OF no great importance,
but the formation Of a treaty recognizing
exclusive American privileges is hardly
possible The Madrid government finds
that every country of Europe takes a SINH
lar view of the matter.

Ruel, imperial minister Of finance, becom-
ing vice president OF the PrussIa6 council.
The impending changes add power to the
National Liberals in the ministry.
The press is discussing a pamphlet,
supposed to have been inspired by Bis
marck, assailing the emperor's tendencies
toward absolutism. The paper rgues
that the ministers alone ought to be re-
sponsible, aud that the sovereign ought
specially to avoid rhetorical declarations,
as in proportion that his fallibllity
becomes obvious will respect for him
suffer. A chapter on The Kaiser His
Own Minister blames Chancellor Won
Caprivi Tor not using his influence to pre-
vent the emperor's injudicious public
u~tterances. compares Germany to a rud.
derless ship, aud accuses the emperor Of
consulting private advisers behind the
backs OF his ministers.
The misery Of the defeated strikers at
Westphalia is extreme. Over 10000
who have applied Tor work in the Bochum
district have been refused employment

LONDON. May l6 Thomas b. Reed.
ex speaker of the United States house OF
representatives in talking to a correspou.
dent of the Associated press in Italy con
corning the Mckinley bill. said, in part.
1T will stimulate our foreign commerce
by a large number OF articles on which
the duties have been reduced or which
are added to the free list. 1t will stimu.
the reduction In duties on raw material
and the increased duties on the very few
a~cticles of necessity which have been
largely imported. but which hitherto We
have been unable to manufacture profit
ably. 1t was extremely unfortunate that
the bill went into effect IN time or was
foil owed soon by the most severe finan,
cial panic, when the failure OF Barring
Bros. seemed to shake the foundations of
the strongest houses, when general in
s~olvency seemed imminent.
Under such circumstances II was not a
difficult matter to convince thousands of
voters that the financial difficulties were
due solely to the inherent defects of the
measure. Why, look at the case of
Austris, whose merchants complain so
loudly of the ruin that the Mckinley bill
wrought TO their trade. They complained
that their Industries were affected to such
an extent by the measure that through
their efforts the Austrian government was
forced to seek to draw other nations into
measures Of reprisal against the United
States. Notwithstanding these complaints
the facts proved that exports for the first
three months under the operation of the
bill were increased 60 per cent over the
corresponding quarter of 1890.
Here in Italy the merchants and press
re-echoed the wailings of the balance OF
the European press until they discovered
that had the bill been specially devised
for the purpose it would not have been
better adapted to increase her trade with
the United States, for by its provisions 30
per cen of our purchases from her are on
the tree list; "a per cent are admitted at a
reduced rate of duty; II per cent at the
same rate, while the duty was advanced
on but 4 per cent. The commercial al
lance of the central states of Europe
which certain powers are endeavorlng to
bring about is evidence that commercial
nations are not slow to take every possible
p%recaution to protect and stimulate their
trade-and that is exactly the policy on
which the Mckinley bill is founded. |
am very confident that the next few years
will be years of great prosperity to the
United States, ard hat they will prove
to be favorable both TO our domestic
manufacturers and to our foreign com

AUSTIN, Tex. May l6.-A horrible
affair occurred in this city late yesterday
evening. Mrs. John K. H~eadspeth, the
wife of a highly respected citizen, at
tempted to poison her whole family, to,
gethcr with her own aunt, by putting
Rough on Rats in some soup of which
they were about to rartake. Her daughter
noticed her put something in the soup
and saw her try to hide the act. but of
course suspected nothing serious. Mr..
Headspeth and his wIfe's aunt, Mrs.
Perry, partook of some of the poisoned
soup and were at once taken violently
sick. MIR. Headspeth was removed to a
drug store and his life was saved with
extraordinary efforts. Mrs. Perry, the
aunt OF the crazed woman died
in agony last night in spite of
all assistance. She was II years old,
and was only stopping with Mrs. Head
speth for a short time. Mrs. Headspeth,
who committed the horrible crime. has
been considered at times to be OF unsound
mind. For the past ten or fifteen years
efforts have been frequently made to have
her confined in an asylum, but her hus-
band always objected, and she was kept
at home. She is an old lady so years OF
age and talks and acts like a perfectly
sane person. She was arrested last
night and placed in Jail, and is very com
Portable in a special cell. Mr.. Head
speth, who is about So years of age. is
resting some better, and it is thought
that he will recover.
