COMMENT IN GERMANY.

Berlin, Oct. 20-An inspired article in the
North German Gazette regards the Anglo
German agreement as a ''reassurng sign for the
peace of the world" and says that Great Brit
ain, just as Germany does, expressly renounces
ali idea of making use of the complications in
China for her special advantages and in eco
nomic aims adheres to the principle of equal
rights for all.
Germany. it is added, does not take upon her
self the obligation of asserting her influence
where other Powers have already acquired spe-
cial rights. she regards the agreement 'as an
important step toward the early establishment
OF a settled condition in China"
The tone CT the article suggests that the agree
ment is welcomed a protection against the
exclusive claims of Great Britain in the Yangtse
Valley.
The German Government thinks the Anglo
German agreement contains nothing the United
States cannot subscribe to- since the United
States has steadily favored the ''open door," the
territorial integrity of China and equal advan-
tages to all the Powers there. No other Power
as consulted before the agreement was reached,
because it was deemed best that two great
Powers come forward with an agreement as an
accomplished fact and then invite the other
Powers to subscribe to the principles of the
agreement One nation could not have done so
alone without arousing antagonism. Two great
Powers could.

MANS THROAT CUT OPEN WITH A PEN
KNIFE AND A PIECE OF MEAT
REMOVED.
REMOVED

The life of Thomas Conroy, of Norwich Conn.,,
was saved at Bellevue Hospital yesterday by
the quick wit of DR.. Christian, a young surgeon,
who tore open the mans throat with a penkntfe
In order that a piece of meat which had lodged
there could be removed
Conroy is single and ffty-three years old. He
was found intoxicated at Forty-irst-st. and
seventh-ave on Wednesday, and placed in the
alcoholic ward. After two days of milk diet
meat was given him. He was ravenously hun
CRY, and cut off a large piece, which he tried to
swallow without chewing.
Some of the diners watched him in astonish-
ment but soon saw him choke and rise from
the table in a paroxysm of pain. He fell on the
floor in his intense efforts to help himself Con-
roy whose face was startlingly red, clutched at
his throat with one hand and pointed to it with
the other Forester, nurse, rushed out Of the
ward into the yard calling for doctor DR..
Christian was standing on the main porch or the
main building. and started on a run toward the
alcoholic ward, surmising that there was some
thing serious Forester told him in few
words what the matter was as they ooth ran
into the alcoholic ward.
DR. Christian saw he had a desperate case
and he found no knife or lance handy for his
work He thought of his penknife, and he deftly
cut the mans throat, holding him tightly down
on the floor 1t dangerous operation as
there are so many vital points thereaoouts. lie
cut the trachea and the entrance to 1t through
the throat and then he put in his thumb ana
finger and pulled the trachea away from the
big piece o neat. which he could not yet re-
The windpipe had to be cut, for the pressure
could in no other way be relieved. DR.. Christian
had intended to use any tube or substitute he
could find in the ward, but just at that instant
Dr. Anderson appeared with case OF instru-
ments. He handed regular piece OF throat
tubing TO DR.. Christian. and the surgeon put II
in its place permitting free breathing.
DR.. Christian then forced the piece o. meat
out of the throat, and the man, though nearly
unconscious, began to breathe more easily The
blood was stopped and the wound sewed UP and
in an hour it was evident that the patient would
surely recover. The throat. which was sewed
up, will be opened again wnen the man has
gained strength and the trachea will be put In
proper shape.

OUT IN LAKEWOOD CEMETERY.

It is often the duty Of a police officer
to so into very disagreeable positions,
and some Of these adventures are of the
most narrowing nature. requiring all the
nerve that can be summed up to keep
a man steady.
Nearly every officer has had some such
adventure, which he considers his worst
experience.
Captain j. B. Angle, of the Second
Police District, has been actively engaged
In police work for a number of years, and,
therefore, has been through many severe
trials. But of all the experiences Of
this kind, the Captain says that his
adventure in trying to catch a gang of
srave-robbers, who had been systematic
cally at work taking bodies from the
various cemeteries around Richmond,
was the worst of his whole experience
as Il policeman.
This adventure occurred while the Cap
tain was a private on the force, and
when Mr.. Darlington was Mayor OF
Richmond.
