Berlin Medi cal Society Hears Repol
of tuberculosis Commission.


Berlin, July 9.-The Berlin Medical So
ciety assembled yesterday evening to
hear Prof. Kossel of the Imperial health
office report the results of the prolonged
experiments of the tuberculosis commits
sion in injecting calves with human
tuberculosis. Prof Koch's observations
prior to the celebrated London address.
caused the health office to appoint the
commission to make systematic expert
ments.
Yesterdays paper was in the nature
of preliminary report The commits
sion Investigations cover three forms of
introducing tuberculosis bacilli in
calves, first, simultaneous injection; sec
Ond, in food: and third. by inhalation.
The preliminary report covers only the
first form but the experiments with the
other forms continue.
The commission decided to attempt
the incubation of calves, not with mat
ter taken directly from human victims
but with cultures made therefrom. The
experimentation covered 80 separate Gull
lures, % from adults and 16 from chill
dren. The results were that 10 calves
simultaneously treated did not show the
slightest effect, nine showed after four
months the slightest changes of condi-
ton and seven showed more marked
symptoms but the propagation of tub
erculosis in the body did not occur. On
the other hand, four NEGOTIATIONS from
tuberculosis children infected calves
with disease which resembled a weak
type of animal consumption and two of
this number died from tuberculosis.
The commission summarizes as fol-
lows:
THE series of experiments strengthens
Prof. Koch's view that animal consump-
ton as the cause of human consumption
does not play the role generally attri-
buted to it: but definitive judgment re-
uuires further experimentation"
In the discussion which followed, Prof.
Orth, the late Professor Virchow's sue
cessor, strongly combatted the view that
human animal consumption was dissim-
liar and on-transferable.

LEAGUE OF RED HEADS.
The Washington Story of How Muir
dock Was Elected

dock Was Elected.
The Washington correspondent of the
Chicago Chronicle sent the following to
his paper:
Victor Murdoch, who succeeds Ches-
ter 1. Long of Kansas in the house of
representatives. was elected by the red
haired citizens of the Seventh district.
The issue upon which he fought the
campaign for nomination and election
was that of red hair, and the strength
of the issue may be judged when 1t is
remembered that Murdoch received the
Republican nomination for congress
over nineteen other candidates and wan
elected by an overwhelming plurality
over the Democratic and Populist nomi-
nees. Murdoch preached the subject OF
a red hair" campaign one night at To-
peka in a jocular mood.
Smith," he said to a friend of his,
do you know that the red haired men
of this country have never been fairly
treated? Notwithstanding the fact that
ten out of every 100 Americans have
red hair, we have never had red
haired president since the time OF
Thomas Jefferson We must organize"
Murdock's friend took the matter seri-
ously and announced next day in the
lobby of a Topeka hotel that the next
member OF congress from the Seventh
Kansas district would have to have red
eagerness by everybody who was the
proud possessor of a strawberry
blonde" hirsute adornment and an or
ganization was formed called the Short
Grass League of Red Heads. Every
red haired man in the district came out
and worked diligently for Murdoch and
there was the greatest kind of enthus-
iasm. AS the race progressed it became
evident that Murdoch had a good chance
to win. When the convention assemble
early in April a good 40 per cent of its
members had red hair and Murdoch was
nominated with a hurrah on the first
ballot against nineteen other candidates.
something the like of which had never
occurred in Kansas politics heretofore.
Murdoch was appreciative OF the work
of his red haired supporters and he
Immediately named Thomas G. Wilson,
red haired man, to be his campaign
manager. He also appointed red hair
ed stenographer for campaign head
quarters. Chairman Wilson immediate
ly began the organization of his forces
and gave ample recognition to REQ
haired local workers in every precinct
of the district. The first contribution 10
the Murdoch campaign fund was a
check for 500 from an enthusiastic req
haired Democrat and the campaign was
carried on with such vigor and enthus-
iasm that there was never any show for
MurdOck'S political opponents.

A FAvORITE WON.
Haggins' Colt, Water-Boy, Set
New Worlds Record.

New York, July 81. B. Higgins
Waterboy won the Brighton Handicap
at one and one-quarter miles, in 2:03
10, a worlds record, faster by three
nfths of a second than Gold Heels cir
cular track record time, made in this
race last year, and faster than the rec
ord time of 2:03A made on a straight
course by Banquet. Water Boy carried
the top weight, 124 pounds, and was
favorite in the betting at to 1. He
mad no serious competition in the race
after Jockey Odom made his run, ex-
cept from Roehampton, carrying 100
pounds, with pullman up, and who. at
10 to 1 in the betting, ran a fine race.
Just when they first passed the stand
ne made up ground rapidly, led for a
sixteenth of a mile before entering the
stretch and made a gallant fight for
first honors when challenged by Water
Boy. River Pilot, los pounds, with the
negro boy Hicks in the saddle, was
third, with as good as to l against his
chances to finish in the first three Wa
ter Boy won by a length, with Roehamp-
ton eight lengths in front of River
Pirate.
Little Larron, who rode Articulate,
was thrown in front of the stand as
the horses passed the first time His
mount was fifth and going we'll when
Francesca and Herbert bumped him.
Articulate crossed his legs, stumbled
and Larren shot over his head. He lay

no serious injuries when carried into the

To a good and prompt start Water
Boy was first away and OdOm took him
over toward the rail, but Cochran was
quick with Dom Paul and got the
coveted position. Dom Paul led pas
sing the stand with Water Boy next
and Francesca and Herbert coming
strongly Roehampton last, was carried
wide on the turn, but raced to the front
in the back stretch. Though Dom Paul
led to the end of the mile, many shift
ings occurred behind and Odom, who
had Water Boy close to the rail in
third place, was nearly cut off when
Roehampton rushed into the lead with
Dom Paul and Francesca dropping
back.
Herbert had tired and failed and with
Francesca was beaten at the last turn,

JUDGE FISHER OBJECTS.
Will Resist Attempt of Governor
Bailey to Appoint His Successor.

Judge E. L. Fisher of the Wyandotte
county district court threatens to resist
in the courts any attempt by Governor
Bailey to appoint q successor to him,
as under the old biennial election law,
he would have the right to do. Cover
nor Stanley appointed successors to the
Judges whose terms expired in 1901, and
the expectation has been that Governor
Bailey would appoint successors to the
judges whose terms expire in 1903.
There are eight judges whose terms of
office expire this year. Three are Demo-
Gratis. and Fisher is one of these. The
list is as follows:
Sixth district-Walter L. Simons.
SEVENTH. Stillwell.
Eighth-O. L. Moore.
Ninth-M- p. Simpson.
Eighteenth-D. NJ. Dale.
Twenty ninth-E. L. Fisher.
Thirty sixth-Marshall Gephart.
Wyandotte common pleas-W. G. Holt
Since Governor Stanley made his ap-
pointment the constitution of the state
regulating biennial elections has been
changed, and under the following pro-
vision Judge Fisher and the rest hope to
retain their offices for an additional
year:
"All officers whose successors would,
under the law as it existed at the time
of their election be elected in an odd
number year, shall hold office for the
additional year and until their success
sors are qualified
