'DR. AMBLER'S PAPER 1
PRACTICAL CONCLUSIONS REGARD
 ING TUBERCULOSIs.
North Carolina Physician Deduces Five Interesting Facts Concerning the Dreaed Disease-GeorGfa
 Barbecue Enjoyed.

Atlanta. Ga, April i8.--Increased at- tendance and largely increased interest marked the second days proceedings of the American Anti-Tuhercuiosis League here today. Late arrivals brought the attendance up to about six hundred physicians, which includes a large num- Der of women practitioners.
 The general subject considered at the only session the convention held today was the treatment of tuberculosis in its various forms. The paper of the day which was accorded the, closest atten- tion was by Dr. c. P. Ambler. of Ashe- vile, N C., on The Physicians Perma- nent Duty to the Patient and Family in Tuberculosis" At the conclusion of the paper the convention by a unant- nous vote authorized the publication of the paper as embodying the sense of the league on the subject. Dr. Ambler fin the course of his address said:
 T wish to place myself on record as advocating that the best means of pre- ven ting consumption is to discover the tuberculosis disease in the patient be- fore the stage of consumption has been reached. Consumptives are persons dy- ing with a tuberculous disease. Tuber- culosis is not the fatal disease that past generations have regarded it.
 As the conclusion of his discussion, Dr. Amber presented the following points:
 "F'irst, Tuberculosis Is not the fatal disease commonly believed.
 Second, while communicable, It can be made practically inocuous by the proper course on the part of the pa- tient.
 Third, the chief cause of the large mortality is late diagnosis.
 Fourth, late diagnosis is caused by indifference of the patient to early symptoms and carelessness on the part of the physician consulted.
 Fifth, by thorough, systematic in- struction of the patient, better results can be accomplished than by medicine.
 sixth, instruction of patient, fam fly and friends and close observance on their part of the rules laid down, will practically rob the disease of its method of extending"
 The program for the day was closely followed and the address of Dr. A. P. Clarke, of Boston, was accorded the closest attention.
 The latter part of the day was de- voted to a Georgia barbecue, which was enjoyed by several hundreds of the visitors with their wives. The election of officers and the choice for the next meeting place will take place tomorrow.

SENSATIONAL DISCUSSION.
EquItable's "Nasty Mess" Before New York Senate.


 Albany, N. Y, April 1S.-An all-daX. debate in the Senate, characterized by charges against the management of the Equitable Life Assurance Society and the return of Superintendent of Insurance Hendricks who for the first time since the Equitable investigation began, talked on that topic with any thing approaching freedom, brought the affairs of that corporation Into sensational notice today.
 The subject came before the Senate in the form of resolution introduced by Senator Brackett to take from the Insurance Committee his bill to facil- itate policyholders suits for account ings. While Superintendent Hendricks declined to forecast when his investi- gation would be completed, he said that the next step, so far as his de- partment is concerned, is to have representative present at Part One of the Supreme Court in New York Coun- ty on Thursday morning when an or- der is returnable requiring the Super intendent to show cause why he should not be restrained from taking action on the amended charter of the Society.
 Speaking of the Equitable situation Senator Bracket said:
 Tt Is now conceded by every one connected with the nasty mess that there has been the most extravagant waste of corporation money. The cor poration is under the same control now
 The scene has so far shifted" de- clared Mir. Bracket, that whereas the contest in this company began over the control of it's millions, 1t is likely presently to take the form of a race to see who can keep out of States prison"
 Other Senators took part in the dis cussion. Senator Grady asserted that Senator Bracket had been unnecessarily alarmed by scare headlines. He only wants the insurance company's affairs
 Does the Senator think" retorted Mir Bracket, that the meeting yes terday Of Equitable agents at which they suggested the retirement of Vice,
