 FEVER GERMS Professor Klebbs Dis covers the Cause of the Dread Disease. Experiments in Which Science Will Be Most Deeply
 Interested. It Is Shown That the Germ Is Not a Bacillus, but
 AnCeba.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

CHICAGO, March 5.-The Times Herald will say tomorrow: Dr. Ed win F. Klebbs, president of pathology and bacteriology in the Post Graduate Medical School, has discovered the cause of yellow fever. AS a result or a series of experiments, extending over two months, he has isolated the emoe- ba, which is without doubt responsible for. the disease, and he has been able to trace it's developments through number of stages in the various organs of the body.
 Professor Klebbs made his experi- ments on the stomach, duodenuh9 and liver of two patients who had dleo of fever in Mobile The material was sent him by Dr. Herman Mohr of that city The professor sought for the pa cflli known as lanerillis and Sternpers s, but found no trace of them at all.
 He then went to work on his own ac- count and by the aid of special aye, composed of fuchsin, methylin blue ana methylin green, he succeeded III 1so- lating the desired germs.
 The germ is not a bacillus, but an amOeba It causes inflammation Of the stomach when swallowed, and then Tn the duodenum 1t assumes sporuStln form. appearing here much like a blackberry. From there It mlgrates to the liver, where it appears as a large structurous body, about twice the size of the red blood corpuscles. Its effect is a rapid degeneration of the liver cells.
 While Professor Klebbs is confident he has obtained the yellow fever germ, ne will not make any sc1entlhc clam Tn this direction until he has been able to obtain live germs and make experi- nents with them.

Special Dispatch to The Call.
 Call Office, Riggs House,
 Washington, March 5. The Senate Committee on Foreign Re- lations held a two hours sitting to-day in an effort to decide upon what course to pursue with reference to the Hawaiian annexation treaty.
 When the committee adjourned the members refused absolutely to give out any information to the press saying that all present had pledged themselves to absolute secrecy.
 The present intention of the committee is to hold the treaty in executive session until a test vote can be secured, and 1t Is still understood that the Bacon amend ment will be used for the purpose If the result of this vote indicates that a vote upon the treaty itself would result in its defeat the friends of annexation would then resort to the expedient of a joint resolution.
 Some difference of opinion developed in the committee as to the wisdom or re- s,In1ing the executive sessions at all, but ii was urged that many of the Senators would not assent to the change in the method of proceeding until there should be at least a vote on the treaty itself. and this view is understood to have pre- vailed

The Third Fire.

Wednesday night close to the hour
of mid night the fire bell sounded out
it, harsh warning, All who were
still up hurried to town aud, guided
by the light, located the fire in n
small barn In the rear of Mr.. H0barts
property at the corner of Monroe and
jefferson streets. The barn was
small and was soaked with the rain
which was falling at the time of the fire
aud so it didn't make much of a blaze.
There were several barns close hy
and the men watched them toprevent
sparks spreading the flames.
While the origin of the fire will
doubtless never be known it was pro-
badly started by some tramps who
went in there to get out of the rain.
The loss was only hundred dollars
or so, the tramp having escaped.
The chief point about it Is That the
third fire has now been had and the
old saying about three fires has been
sa tislied
