AMERICAN DOCTORS
LEAD THE WORLD
Generous Treatment Given by DR.. Lo-
renz on His Return Home.

VIENNA, Jan. 20.-Dr. Lorenz, whc
arrived here today from London, thus
gave his impressions of the United
States:
Above all was struck with the
magnificent charity of the Americans
and their immense gifts to educational
institutions and hospitals. Their will
lingness, even their anxiety, to spend
money in aiding others is almost be-
yond belief
Next to this condition, DR.. Lorenz
said he had marveled most at the
large number of alleged heaIeTs in
American, naming the Christian Scien-
lists and Faith Curists of every de-
scription who seem to flourish there.
The doctor was enthusiastic with re-
gard to the practice of medicine in the
United States, and declared that Amer
lean doctors, nurses and hospitals lead
the world.
American physicians represent pro-
gressiveness," continued DR.. Lorenz,
while the English physicians are ex-
tremely conservative. In America it
was difficult to accommodate the doc
tors and students who desired to at
tend my clinics, while during my last
week in London many Of the most emil
nent surgeons showed no interest In
the new methods, while others who
We're present declared the old way to be
best"
f DR.. Loranz said that he anticipated
reyisiting the United States.

CALLS GOV. TAFT
UNCRATEFUL
Papal Secretary of State
Makes Complaint Against
Philippine Executive.
Special Cable to The Globe.

Special Cable to The Globe.
ROME, Jan. 20-CardinaI Rampolla,
papal secretary of state, has written to
ington, complaining of the ingratitude
of Judge Taft, governor of the Philip
pines. The secretary maintains that
notwithstanding the concessions made
by the vatican to the American mission
which recently visited Rome, the exec
utive Of the Philippines refuses sum-
marily to reinstate the Roman Catho-
lies in lands unjustly seized by the
Filipino independent Catholics.
In this way, he asserts, the Ameri-
cans are indirectly fomenting that
schism which is agitating the islands
and which is mainly due to the papal
compliance with the requests of the
American mission. In long report
sent to Mgr. Falconio the vatican law
yers hold that the seizure Of church
lands was illegal because they had
been peaceahly possessed by the Ro-
man Catholic church from time i'm
memorial. They assert that if the in
dependent Catholics have claim on
these lands such claims should be es-
tablished by legal process and not by
enforced arbitrary spoilation, which is
equivalent to robbery and which no
respectable government should tolerate
Mgr. Falconio is expected to take the
matter up with the Washington gov
ernment.

WASHINGTON. y. c., Jan. 90
Representative Littlefeld (Me), Over
street Qnd), and Powers (Mass), the
Republican members of the subcommit-
tee of the judiciary committee. have
practically completed the antitrust
bill. A meeting of the full subcommit-
tee will De held tomorrow If a report
is agreed en- by the subcommittee it is
probable that the judiciary committee
will be convened Thursday to receive
the report.
1t is said that tie differences Of opin-
ion that have existed between the sub
committee and the attorney general re.
lated to forms of expression, the extent
to which publicity should be provided
for and questions Of punishments, but
that there has been no conflict Of npin-
ion as to the general purposes at
which bill should aim.
1t is said the bill as it now stands
provides for publicity through the in

He recommends that authority be
granted for the appointment Of an as

Office, one additional assistant attorney
general and tw1 expert and confidential
stenographers and typewriters. With
this additional force Mr.. Knox believes
that much smaller sum than $500, 900
would be adequate for the purposes in
tended and that the results would be
in every way mare satisfactory than
could be obtained through the bill as
it now stands.

ed by discussion" said Mr.. Quay dur
ing the discussion. "and no one knows
that better than the senator from In
diana"
Mr.. Beveridge responded by saying
that the thing to do was to find out
who was really obstructing it.
I'VE will discover that by a vote -
retorted Mr.. Quay.
Mr. Beveridge said it was the same
old argument: 1--WE have the votes and
are ready to go ahead"
Mr. Quay interrupted with propo-
sition that unanimous consent be given
for vote on the bill on Saturday, the
oath inst.
Mr.. Beveridge showed some irrita-
ton at the interruption, saying it was
hardly pertinent to the point he was
discussing.
"The senator from Pennsylvania, -
said Mr. Beveridge, has secured
pledges and has surrounded himself
with a corps SO impervious to the as
saults Of reason that he proposes to
rush the bill through
THE statement of the senator from
Indiana" said Mr.. Quay, "is entirely
false which he later corrected to
untrue"
Mr.. Beverfdge characterized Mr..
Quay's use of the words "willful OBJ
struction" as audacious, because, he
said, Mr.. Quay had announced that
unless he got what he demanded need
full legislation would be sidetracked.

ELECTRICAL ACTION
IN THE LUNGS
DR.. Atkins, Of California, Has a New
Theory of His Own.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Jan. 20.-Dr.
Albert j. Atkins, lecturer on the prin-
ciples of medicine at the California
medical college, in recent paper read
before the San Francisco County So
ciety of Physicians and Surgeons,
claims that experiments conducted by
him have demonstrated that it is cleo
tricity, not oxygen, which purif1es the
bleed on the lungs. DR.. Atkins says
that no oxygen passes through the
membrane of the air cells of the lungs
into the blood stream; aIse that the
air cells create carbon. He has dis
covered that the action which takes
place in the lungs in breathing is cleo
trical.
Nitrogen and cxygen Of air c5m-
ing in contact with the seereted car
bon causes combustion, which gener-
ates electric currents; these pass
through. the membrane cf the air cells
into the Iolood from venous to arterisl,
also causing the rhythmic action Of the
heart, thus showing the lungs to he
the important center af life
The Theory advocated by DR.. Atkins
is that oxygen of the system comes
from the food we eat and the water
we drink and must be refined by the
process cf digestion before it can be
made in solution ana enter the blood.
He claims that a certain percentage
of oxygen Of air is consumed by means
Of the chemical action taking place-in
the air cells during breathing. The
refuse of this process is exhaled as
carbon dioxide. Further experiments
made by him shcw that the resistance
CT the human system is SO much great
er than the pressure Of the atmcs-
phere that 1t would be impossible for
osmosis Of a gas to take place under
such conditions. Other experiments
show that venous blood can be changed
in color like that of arterial blood by
the use of gaivanic electricity.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. 2O.-The

discussion of the Alaskan boundary
dispute.
Mr.. Cochran (Mo.) denounced as
"cowardly surrender" the. course of the

Mr.. Hepburn Qowa) took up the
challenge and countered with the
charge that Democratic administra-

the republic Of Texas. While Mr.. Cock

Mr. Sheppard (Tex.) talked Of trusts,
using exceedingly strong language in
his denunciation of the existing con-

declaring that in view of his perform
ances his Minneapolis speech was a
"disheartening mockery." To call him

Mr.. Jacoby yesterday introduced res

that there is an abundant supply of

ton for irrigation investigation is $685.
600, against $65, 600, the current appro-
