Koch's Theory Disproved.

NEW YORK, Nov. 4.-Positive signs Of
tuberculosis have appeared in the COW
that was innoculated with germs by Dr.
George ID. Barney, Of Brooklyn, several
days ago. DR.. Barney will permit the indi-
cations to become more pronounced and
will then kill the COW and hold an autopsy.
Dr. Barney is now certain that he has
disproved DR.. Koch's theory that the hu-
man tuberculosis and bovine tuberculosis
are not intercommunicable. The COW was
inoculated by DR.. Barney about ten days
ago. On Saturday last it began to show a
fever, and now all the known signs of tub
erculosis are apparent in the beast. DR..
Barney said last night that he had no doubt
that the autopsy TO be performed would
prove beyond doubt the fallacy of DR..
koch'S theory.
