VEGETABLE JUICE
CURE FOR
CONSUMPTION.

Clans OF New YORK nave re-
CelVed a circular from the New
YorkPoSt GraduateHosp CIV
ing an account the wonderful
cures of consumption through
the use of the juice of raw
vegetables and fruits. 1t seems
that the treatment began by the
use of potatoes, onions, beetS,
tWnips. cabbages and celery,
Later there were added sweet
potatoes, apples, pineappleS,
carrots and parsnips, and still
later rhubarb, summer squash.
tomatoes, spinach, radiShes,
string beans and green peas,
in the pod.
1t would seem to be absurd
on its face that such treatment
could be used to effectualIy
combat consumption. yet so
high an authority as DR.. Russell
OF the above med hospital,
who seems to have made the
discovery and developed the
treatment, states that eleven
cases of we'll developed puImo-
nary tuberculosis have been ab-
solutely cured. while fifty others
are under treatment and pro-
crossing satisfactorily.
1t is to be hoped that the
long looked for cure of this
dread disease has at last been
found in this treatment, but the
medical profession will doubt
less be Sceptcal, as they are
and should be on all new treat
mentS until more than eleven
cases have been cured by a
combination of simple Vege-
able juices that contain little, if
my, of the nOurishment re-
quired by the consumptive.
AS DR.. Russell says he has been
the principal advocate of nutrl-
ton as opposed to medicine in
the treatment Of tuberculosis,
he seems 10 COntraVert his own
theory in the use these Vege-
table juices that possess such a
small percentage of nutrition.
Hygiene and nutrition of the |
best sort are absolute requisites
in the treatment of consump-
ton. If the laws of health are
carefully observed and the body |
is sustained with nutritious,
wholesome, easily digestedfood, |
the raVages of the disease may
be arrested, even Whenthe lung
tissue is involved. There is
little question that the best
nutrition in the world in such
cases is the old and much
abused cod liver oil; not in its
raw state but in the form best
adapted for its immediate alb
sorption into the body, as
foundinScott's sEmulSion ofpure
Norwegian cod liver oil which
contains, in addition, the val
liable hypophosphiteS of lime
and soda and glycerine. We
hesitate to say that it will cure
consumption, but after thirty
years experience with it, the
medical profession knows that
it will arrest the progress OF
the disease and in its earlier
stages generally effect per-
manent cure. So certain are
we of this that we challenge a
comparative clinical test in any
hospital or Sanitarium where
there are patients afflicted
with this nalady. If it will not

For half minute all hands bad the i'm

Then few men and as many level headed

the fire scare was all over, and the nervous

1t was subsequently learned that two

CAssATT WANTS RATE LAWS.
hut Differs With the President on Appeal
to Existing Courts.

President A. }. Cassatt OF the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad speaking for his corpora
ton and practically the other great railroads
interested in the present agitation for
Government control OF railroad rates gave
out d statement yesterday saying that any
action which would deny the light OF appeal
TO existing courts :, as would be the case II
tribunal for the regulation OF the railroads
suggested by President Roosevelt, WAS
created, would be an unjust discrimination
against those railroads
President Cassatt said that the manage
ment Of the Pennsylvania Railroad had
for some years past recognized the reason
ableness Of legislation providing Tor the
Government regulation OF rates under
proper safeguards 10 the owners OF rail-
way properties While the views had not
at first been shared by some OF the leading
railroads, Mr. Cassatt believed there was
now a general disposition 70 aoqnesoe IN
proper legislation upon this subject.
Mr. Cassatt said that the question OF pre-
venting determinations or preferences
between shippers 10y the payment OF re-
bates or by any other device seemed TO
be confounded in the minds OF the public
with that Of other Government regulation
Of rates. The former subject was already
dealt with by the Federal statute known
az the Elkins act passed in 1908 in
"a effective a way al possible by any
legislative enactment, unless perhaps in
the case Of private car lines. in which cases
further legislation might possibly be needed
TO bring them under the provisions OF the
Ellins act, and that this would he met by

Manhattan tunnel work, 80 far as the con-

satisfy Mrs. Flower. II comes from a

sp.t,.i can Despatch 70 THE srS.


ioNpoN, Feb. 3.--The correspondent Of
The Sun has high diplomatic authority for
the following statement:
On the initiative of the German Govern
ment mn interview took place on Monday
A. Berlin between Chancellor Won Buelow
and Sir Frank Iascelles, the British Am
hassador. at which the former proposed
that efforts be made by Germany and Great
Britain TO secure peace between Russia
and japan THE SUNS informant be-
Heves that this conference was preceded
by an interchange OF views by King Edward
and the Kaiser.
A double motive for this action In as
cribed to the German Emperor. One Is
that he seeks TO damage the alliances be-
tween France and Russia, and the other fs
shn, he deaires TO destroy the anh-German
feeling in England.
WAsHrNGToN, Feb s.-While no official
Information has reached Washington OF
.he Anglo-Gerrnan exchanges preliminary
e. an cr''1te TO bring about peace IN the
Far East there Is no disposition to question
the accuracy OF the news. Doubt, however,
Is e1pressed in influential quarters that the
efforts of the German Emperor will have the
outoome which he apparently desires.
This feeling is based on knowledge that
fecent negotiations initiated by Germany
IN connection With other important SUBJ
jeots have not been received with that
enooura cement which might have been
expected.
That the Kaiser proposed an Anglo
German understanding 10 end tho war
j. no: regarded in Washington with any
grea' surprise Had the initiative been
taken however, by any other European
Government or sovereign sensation
would doubtless have followed the an
pouncement Of the fact. Emperor William
has beon exceedingly active recently In
directing international exchanges on a
variety Of subjects. and It is considered as
cutie probable that he oontemplates an
effort that will lead to the establishment
Of peace between Russia and Japan and at
the same time affect the Franco Russian
alliance.
LF,.i If urged TO join in any movement
for International Intervention, the United
States Government would not consent,
not only on account Of its policy to avoid
foreign alliances, but for tho more inme-
date reason that it consistently adheres
g. tho principle Of non-interference between
two beiligerent nations with which it main
tains friendly relations. unless invited by
both belgerents to do so.
No such invitation has been extended.
On t'e contrary, Russia has made Unknown
to all tho Powers. including the United
Stats. that any attempt on their part
10 end the war. by tender Of their good
oifcss or otherwise, would be regarded by
the Russian Government az an unfriendly
act. Japan has expressed a willingness
10 accept the mediatory services OF any
neutral Power whenever Russia showed a
Ike willingness. but has not indicated
desire to take the initiative.
In view Of the attitude assumed by the
two warning countries tho Government
Of the United States intends to hold strictly
s'ooi rom any effort to secure peace.
