Senate Committee Acts Promptly.

The Senate Committee on Foreign
Relations authorized a favorable re-
port on the bill giving effect to the
Cuban Reciprocity Treaty.
The motion to favorably report the
bill was not opposed by any member
OF the committee, and the decision to
favorably report was arrived at in less
than IS minutes after the question was
taken up. No effort was made to
amend the bill, and it will accordingly
be reported to the Senate just as it
came from the House OF Representa-
tives. The report will be made by SEN
ator Cullom, as chairman OF the COM
mittec.
The only discussion which occurred
in the committee apropos OF the bill
was on the point as to whether an
agreement could be secured with the
House looking to the adjournment OF
the extra session next week, on the
condition that time be agreed upon
early in the regular session for taking
vote on the bill. The members gen
orally expressed themselves as willing
to enter into such an arrangement and
the I4th OF December was named as an
acceptable time for taking the vote All
the members OF the committee except
Senators Morgan and Clarke, OF Mon
tana, were present at the meeting.

WAS A MINE FOREmAN'S DISCOVERY.
Some Remarkable Cures Said to Have
Been Made.

Moscow (By Cable).-Remarkable
cures OF consumption have recently
been effected in Russia by Kisel Tag
oranski, formerly a mining engineer,
and now specially licensed by the Rus
sian medical department to practice
medicine in cases OF tuberculosis. Tag
oranski has given the Associated Press
an account OF the origin of his con-
sumption cure, from which it appears
that 80 years ago he was sent to ST.
IBERIA to superintend extensive mining
works The medical facilities there
we're extremely limited, and Zagoranski
himself attended to the medical wants
OF the workmen to the best OF his
ability. An old foreman OF the mine,
however, always took care OF the tu-
berculosis cases, and almost invariably
cured them. The foreman died some
years ago, conhding his tuberculosis
specific to Zagoranski, who continued
to use it.
Hearing a rumor that John d.
Rockefeller, OF the United States, had
offered an immense prize for the dis
covcry OF a consumption cure. he con-
suited American Consul Smith, who,
with his brother, w. Z. Smith. began a
systematic observation OF the cases OF
several patients, especially that OF an
English lady, an acquaintance of the
Consul, who had been given up by the
doctors. She submitted to Zagoran-
skis treatment, which was given under
professional medical observation. At
the end OF a week the proportion OF tu-
berculosis bacilli in the saliva had been
reduced 10 per cent, and at the end of
SIX weeks the patient had gained 22
pounds, and there was no trace of ba-
cilli observable. From being unable
regained her normal strength. This oc-
Cured last spring, and the cure appears
to be permanent.
In conversation with a correspondent
w. L. Smith, the brother of the Con-
sui, cited other equally remarkable
cases. Zagoranski's treatment, accord
ing to Mr.. Smith, consists merely in
the drinking OF his specific in large
quantities, together with life in the
open air and observance OF careful
Zagoranski says that so far as he is
able to observe the treatment does not
renew wasted lung tissue, but arrests
the disease. At whatever stage OF the
disease the treatment is begun it kills
the tuberculosis germ, leaving the sys-
TEN clean so that it may build up by
careful diet
The Russian police at one time made
a strong effort to prevent Zagoranskis
practice, but w. Z. Smith secured him
a special license from the Russian gov.
ernment, under which lie is now operat-
ing. He has had many patients in
Germany and other parts OF Europe.
Prince Oldenburg, a philanthropisi
OF St. Petersburg, who maintains sew
eral hospitals in Russia and big san.
itarium in the Caucasus at his own ex.
pense, has offered to place three beds
at Zagoranski's disposal in a St. Pc.
tersburg hospital.

graph operator in the New York Cen

Grove and entered the Philadelphia and
Reading Railway station at Allenwood

Murrcll J. Haier, are operating at
other points.
Early Saturday morning John Dali
ton, the watchman at the Reading sta
tion in Girardville, was attacked by
four masked men, who locked him in
one of the apartments OF the depot.
They then searched the express rooms
and secured three valuable packages
and SIS in cash. Dalton succeeded in
escaping through a back window. He
gave an alarm and a posse chased the
fleeing desperadoes, who escaped into
1he mountains. Shots were exchanged,
and it is believed one OF the burglars
was wounded. An armed posse is con-
finuing the search for them, with the
hope OF securing the $500 reward offer
ed by the Reading Railway.
Waiting for the signal that murder
cts are at work, special trains stand
at intervals along the three trunk line
railroads OF this section, ready to speed
10 some scene oi crime as yet unsus
pected. Excitement is intense along the
roads, where train dispatchers and
other officials listen at the telegraph
instruments for clicks that tell OF some
man. in lonely tower. in peril OF his
life.
The railroad officials and employees
are determined to run down the daring
band Of despcradoes.
To each locomotive that is held in
readiness for a nashlikc trip over the
rails at given call is attached one
coach, within which are detectives,
heavily armed. The engineers stand by
their throttles, that not a moment may
be lost in getting under way, and so
they will stand throughout the night il
not called to move their trains.
Should train be ordered to move
she train dispatchers will clear the
track Of all other trains and give
clear way for fast run.
The roads interested are the New
York Central, the Pennsylvania and the
Reading, and so thoroughly aroused
arc the people OF all this section OF
Pennsylvania that hundreds OF citizens
arc voluntarily out on watch along the
tracks or hidden near the towers.
