SURE CURE FOR CONSUMPTION
A CHICAGO PHYSICIAN AN
NoUNCES A DISCOVERY.
Method Explained at Denver-Rocky
Mountain Association Elects DR..
Hough President and Will Meet
at Salt Lake.

Denver, Colo, June 9.-The feature of
the 51st annual convention of the Amer
lean Medical association, now in session
in this city, was a remarkable address
at the afternoon session today by Dr.
j. B. Murphy of Chicago, who, al
though 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 with spe-
cial reference to the discovery by him
of a cure for consumption, or tubercu-
made public today for the first time,
and it's announcement aroused great
enthusiasm among the assembled ply
sicians.
DR.. Murphy's new treatment is based
upon the fact that the sore spots in
the lungs have a natural tendency TO
heal, the healing process being retard-
ed or prevented by the constant expan-
sion of the tissue in breathing.
The treatment consists in the intro
duction of pure nitrogen into the lung
cavity, through a hyDoderInic needle.
The action of the nitrogen congresses
the lung, and gives it an entire rest.
After a few weeks the nitrogen is with
drawn, and air admitted, the lung ex-
banding to it's usual dimensions. If it
be found that a perfect cure has not
been affected, the nitrogen can again be
used.
The treatment of tuberculosis thus by
means of compression is not a new the
Dry, but the application is new. DR..
Murphy announced that five patients
whom he treated in this manner were
cured in four to eight weeks. He de-
clared that unless the lung is entirely
gone. a permanent cure can be effected.
On his return to Chicago he will use
his treatment on 230o leensumptfve pa
tients in the Cook county hospital.
The attendance at the convention is
larger than at any previous convention
of the association, except the semi
centennial at Philadelphia last year.
Nearly 1,400 doctors had registered
when the books were closed today.
Columbus, o., was the city chosen as
the next place of meeting.
The following officers were elected:

TAXATION OF MINES.
Claim of the Centennial-Eure For
a Rebate of Tax

Eureka, June 9.-In conversation to-
day with County Attorney Ed Pike he
stated to your correspondent. in regard
to the Centennial Eureka case, that if
the county should be liable for the Cen
tennial-Eureka's claim it would also be
liable for the tax paid by the other
mining companies in 1896, which would
probably amount to $4,000 and this
amount would have to be repaid by the
taxpayers of the shore districts and
the county generally. The new Eureka
school house was built out of the taxes
of 1896, and it would fall especially
heavy upon the taxpayers here.

It Comes to An End For the
Present.
ANSWER TO BE AMENDED
DEFENDANT SETTING UP CoUN.
TER CLAIM OF $4,000.
The Amount Alleged TO Have Been
Overcharged by Andrews In the
Furniture Deal-Jury Finds For
the Defendant In Haddock VS..
Utah Lime and Cement Company.

The county warrant case of S. H.
Auerbach against Salt Lake county,
in which the plaintiff sued to recover
$4,000 on a warrant issued to Andrews
& Co., in part payment of furniture.
came to a sudden termination for the
present.
The defendant rested after having
put in a great deal of testimony to
show fraud in the deal and to show
that the furniture which had been
sold to the county for So, 500 was worth
only $4,000.
The plaintiffs counsel then moved
that the evidence relating to fraud be
stricken out, and after argument, his
honor sustained the motion, holding
that the existence of fraud did not
nullify the contract and that the coun-
ty remedy was to set up. a counter
claim for the amount it claimed had
been oVercharged, being about $28, 900.
Mr.. Auerbach's counsel then, argu-
ing that the warrant sued upon was
the first of the series issued, asked
for judgment for the amount claimed,
contending that the county should pay
the warrants in their order of iSSu-
ance up to the sum they acknowledged
the furniture to be worth. Judge HileS
declined to make such a ruling, and 1t
would appear to follow that the coun-
ty, in its counter claim, would have
recourse against all the warrant
holders.
Mr. Van Colt then asked leave to
amend the answer so as to set up the
counter claim, and his honor sustained
the motion. The plaintiffs counsel
stated they were unprepared to meet
the defendants testimony as to the
value of the furniture, and in view of
. I,a 4a6 trrv-T hn h06
taken, asked for continuance, which
the court granted, without date, and
the jury was discharged.
This establishes a new basis in the
case, which will now practically have
to be tried over again.

The Dividend Cut Down.

The Herald is Informed that at the
meeting of the directors of the Mercur
company to be held today the usual
dividend of IS cents a share, or $4,000,
will be cut down to 1919 cents share,
or s25,000, being the amount regularly
paid by the company previous TO the
sale of the Resolute fraction to Cap
tain J. r. De Lamar.
1t was further stated that the output
of the Mereur mine and mill would
easily enable the company 10 pay a
monthly dividend of $4,000, but no
more, on account of which it was pro-
posed to keep a good treasury surplus,
which is now in the neighbOrhood of
500, 900, and this will not be broken
into or impaired unless something ex-
traordinary occurs.
The Mercur, which will be able to
maintain regular monthly dividends of
$25, 900, is one of the best investment
stocks on the market today, and al
though it is now on the down grade
because of the cut in dividends, the de-
preston will be but temporary, as the
showing in the property is such as to
guarantee these regular distributions
of wealth for a great many years to
come.
