THE x RAYS KILL BAcILII.
This Has Been Demonstrated by the
University Of Missouri.

AnlS Has Been Demonstrated BY the
University OF Missouri.
Chicago. April 8.-An X ray win kill
bacteria Of diphfheria- The electrical de-
partment Of the University OF Missouri. at
Columbia. announces that after extensive
experiments dsphtheria germs have been
killed by the Roentgen light. To Prof.
Harry Preston Pratt and Prof Hugo
Wightman. OF Chicago. the FIRST TO give
to the scientific world the positive asser-
ton that disease germs In the human body
could be killed by the use Of the X ray,
this confirmation Of their own pioneer work
was extremely gratifying. But 3 week
ago they gave the result Of their expert
ments. which were received with some
doubt by Eastern scientists. and with much
skepticism in Chicago. To the doctors and
scientists who criticised the possibility Of
the Chicago discovery being true. the con-
firmatory report from the University OF
Missouri will come as q surprise. Prof
Roentgen himself. when told by cable OF
the Chicago investigation and the result.
replied that he had expected the expert
ments to result as they did. The X nay.
he said, was q germicide. The University
OF Missouri joins Chicago in sustaining
this declaration The following gives the
details of the university's work:
The Roentgen ray will cure diphtheria
by killing the bacillus which causes that
disease- Tbs Is the discovery which the
electrical department OF the University Of
Missouri announces today. Experiments
have been carried on for some time in the
electrical laboratory to test the effect OF
the famous ray upon the diphthsria ba-
cilius. The germs were prepared by Prof
Hickman. Of the bacter.ological depart-
ment. and subjected to the influence OF the
rays for two hours Tho microscopic ex-
animation showed that the dphtheria ba-
cillus had almost entirely disappeared. The
arrangement OF the testing apparatus IL
different from the ordinary method Fur
Their experiments will be made at once.
If they continue successful the cure OF
diphtheria by the application Of the Roent-
gen rays to the afflicted throat will become
part Of medical practice"
