Las Cancer Its special 0Iicrobo9


A highly interesting discovery, which

of cancer has been made in Professor
Won Leyden's university hospital here
A young woman of % and a man Of 03,
both suffering from dropsy aud cancer
of tho stomach, We're brought TO the
hospital last spring. In order to remove
the accumulated fluid, tapping was re-
sorted to in both cases The fluid was
exam ned under the microscope, and
hitherto unknown living organisms, be-
longing probably to tho protozoa, were
discovered.
Professor. Waldeyer, to whom the
preparations were submitted, advised
that hey should be sent to DR.. Sohau-
dim, assistant at the geological insti-
tute &C the Berlin university, who has
been Investigating the protozoa for years
past, Ho began bis examination on July
10, and uscertained that in both cases
the fluid contained a rhigopod, which
no named Leydenia gemmipara schau-
dim. He inferred that it is a pathogenio
organism, but both no and Professor
Won Loydon still abstain from deciding
as to the connection between it and cam

Of such a connection. They have made
