II would not care said DIR. Harper. ITO discuss
the attitude OF DR.. Kemsen. but would say for
myself that am glad that knowledge OF Greek

present time to swing too far away from the

of oxford to require Greek. and IL would scarcely
seem reasonable that In opening her doors TO
Americans she should modify her requirements.

to be a proper requirement when the fact Is
taken into account that N fOur-year the
first two years are given to college work and the

Replying to question DR.. Harper said. Il am OF
the opinion that the expense OF selection should
borne by the Rhodes trustees IL cannot be fairly
levied against any OF the educational institutions
The selection finally made is IN each instance an IN
ton to exact il from the candidate selected 20 would
be obviously inequitabe to subject the chairman

DIR. BIGGS Is SCEPTICAL.
Doesn't Believe Vaccination WI
Cure Consumption an Man.

That while It is doubtless possible partly TO
immurize animals from tuberculosis BY vaccina-
ton, there is one especial obstacle to the ap-
plication OF the method TO mankind was the
comment made by DR.. Hermann Biggs. the
tuberculosis expert, last night on the paper OF
Dr. Eduardo MaraglianO. the we'll known Ital-
ian physician, which was read at Philadelphia
under the Phipps Institutes auspices on Tues
day.
This obstacle to the application OF the pro-
cedure to human beings" DR.. Biggs told
Tribune reporter. lies in the fact that the
serum 10 be injected contains partly toxic sub
stances"
Or. Biggs admitted that the procedure re-
ferred to had been in part successful IN the case
Of certain animals.
"On this basis" said he. ''men have been ex-
perirnenting with animals. and not without re-
suits Experiments, however, have not been
made on human beings. Some time ago Dr.
Trudeau demonstrated that IL was possible
partly to immunize animals by this process
Dr. NaragIiano is a very well known man. ana
the paper read from him has considerable
