The members of the Fiftieth Iowa received

OF che time l could not make Il out at all.
The gunners plowed the water about II
whenever the rays OF the New Orleans re-
~lentless searchlight rested on II. The chance
that the destroyer would get within striking
range of the New York grew greater with
every swift turn OF the screw, But with its
approach to the flagship II must loom into
greater directness aud risk the hail from
the fagship's qulck-Hring guns at deadlier
range. That 1t had held its course so long
without injury was an amazing thing.
Win or lose the end OF the fierce game
was close at hand. The big Oregon had run
down to a position nearly on a line drawn
from the New Orleans to the New York.
A fash from its forward gun and a tre-
mendous fountain sprang up just beyond
the Spanish boat. The she'll had been aimed
a little too high and astern. Again the guns

Straight to the mark few the great thir-
teen-inch steel shell. 1t must have struck
the Spaniard fair amidship, for the flying
shadow vanished. To the westward the New
York. to the eastward the New orleans
waited in vain. The restless searchlight
probed the dark area in a thousand places,
but found nothing. The New York steamed
slowly eastward down the coast, examining
very foot of water for wreckage. Men with
strained senses listened for the hail of some
wrecked survivor. but they found nothing.

and shaking hands with the gunner who
had snuffed out at one snuff, as one snuffs

that came to stab III the dark. On board
the flagship this morning the officers said
simply that the New Orleans had discov-
cred a torpedo boat or gunboat attempting
to make harbor and that the boat was sunk.

NEW CURE FOR CONSUMPTION
Young Chicago Doctor Makes Re-
Announcement to
Convention of Physicians.

DENVER, Colo, June 9.-The feature of
the ifty-first annual convention of the
American Medical association, now in ses-
sion in this city, was a remarkable address
at the forenoon session todly by DR.. j. B.
Murphy Of Chicago, who. although still a
young man, is recognized as one of the
greatest living surgeons.
DR.. Murphy's paper was entirely upon
the subject of the lungs, but special refer
encc to the discovery by him of a cure for
consumption or tuberculosis of the lungs.
The discovery was made public today for
the first time, and its announcement aroused
great enthusiasm among the assembled
physicians.
DIR. Murphy's new treatment is based upon
the fact that the sore spots in the lungs
have a natural tendency to heal, the heal
ing process being retarded or prevented by
the constant expansion of the tissue in
breathing. The treatment consists III the
introduction of pure nitrogen into the lung
cavity through a hypodermic needle. The
action of the nitrogen congresses the lung
and gives it an entire rest. In the course
of a few weeks the nitrogen is withdrawn
and air admitted, the lung expanding it's
usual dimensions.
After a warm discussion the conN ention
refused to admit the New York State Medi-
