ED TO TREAT TUBERCULOSIS.
| Remarkable cures of consumption
are said to have been effected in Ruf
sia by Kisel Zagoranski. formerl
licensed by the Russian Medical De
partment to practice medicine In case
of tuberculosis,
NJ. Zagoranski, who is a persona
friend of Samuel Smith, the Unite,
States Consul here. had given to th
Associated Press an account of th,
origin of his alleged consumption cure
tappears that NJ. Zagoranski, thirt,
years ago, was sent to Siberia to super
intend extensive mining works. Tht
medical facilities there were extremel,
limited. and M. Zagoranski himself
attended to the medical wants OF the
workmen to the best of his ability.
An old foreman of the mine, however
took care of the tuberculosis cases
and, according to M. Z,goranski,
cured them. The foreman died some
years ago. codfidIng his tuberculosis
specific to Zigoranski, who continued
to use it at intervals.
Hearing rumor that John d. Rock
efeller had offered an immense prize
for the discovery of a consumption
cure. M. Zagoranski consulted Con.
sui Smith, who, with his brother, w
E Smith, began systematic observ
alton of the cases of several patients
especially that of an EigIish woman
an acquaintance of the Consul, who
had been given up by the doctors and
was about to leave for England to die.
She. however, submitted to Zagoran
skis treatment. which was given un-
der professional medical observation.
At the end Of q week the proportion
of tuberculosis bacilli in the salivs
had been reduced 10 per cent, and at
the end of six weeks the patient hao
gained TWENTY-FIVE pounds, and there
was no trace of bacilli observable, it i.
declared, and the cure appears to be
permanent.
In conversation with the Associated
Press correspondent w. 4. Smith cit
ed other equally remarkable cures
Zagoranskin's treatment, according
to Mr.. Smith, consists merely in .th,
drinking of his specific in large quan
titles, together with life in the opei
air and the observance of a careful
diet.
Zagoranski says that. SO far as he IL
able to observe, the treatment does no
renew wasted lung tissue, but arrests
'he disease. At whatever stage of th,
lisease the treatment is begun it kills
,he tuberculosis germs. leaving th.
ystem clean to be built up by care

The Russian police at one time made
strong effort to prevent Zagoranski' |
but w. E. Smith secured hin
