Poison of TarantuLa
Probably Not Fatal
Philadelphia Scientists Experiments Lead
Him to Believe That Bite of Insect
May Possibly Cure Disease.

All his experiments have been carried
on with dogs as subjects. The animals
have been placed in a small compart-
ment and the tarantuIa then released.
In each case the dog has been bitten,
but. unfortunately for the continuance
of the experiments, the dog has always
reta1iated by killing the tarantuIa.
Not one of the dogs thus bitten has
suffered any III effects
In the case OF the dog affected with
chorea" said DR.. Stout today. he
seemed to become Immediately better
after having been bitten and for more
than half an hour showed none of the
symptoms of his disease. I expect to
continue the experiment with the same
dog at frequent intervals to see if any
permanent result can be obtained.

PHILADELPHIA, July 26.-Fearing

tula. heretofore deemed deadly, Philip
Samuel Stout, assistant demonstration in
pathology of the University Hospital
here, has been carrying on experiments
to determine accurately the character
and effects of the poison of the big

DR.. Stout has become . enthusiastic
over the subject that he will allow a
tarantuia to bite him to study the eff
feCts.
Up to the present time DR.. Stout has

Stout believes it may eventually be

DR.. Stout began his experiments more

by a friend travelling in Central Ameri-

Advised by Counsel.
Kleindien5t was advised by his attor-
news to remain In Washington until it
was absolutely necessary for him to go
TO Baltimore. The policeman says he
informed Acting Chief Boardrnan that
he intended going to Baltimore for trial

kleindienst says he knows he would
not be given a fair and impartial trial
in Baltimore because none Of the other
policemen had such.
To Fight in Courts.
After his talk with Captain Roardmap
he decided TO compel the Baltimore au-
thorities to get requisition papers for
him. 1t is understood this is something
unusual because ordinarily a warrant
from the Monumental City authorities is
all that is necessary TO take a man from

Counsel for Kleindienst will make a
hard fight against the pollcernan's re
turn to Baltimore even after the paDers
arrive here. The case will be arg7Ied in
the Supreme Court Of the District ana
every effort Will be made to keen Klein

court in Baltimore, because. Il is al

He was we'll up on the affairs of the
Catholic Church, its history, customs,
and officials Upon investigation 1t was
found that he was once a divinity stu
dent, and had thus gotten his acquaint-
aTce with the affairs of the church and

Attention was first called to the man
by the acting pastor Of St Joseph ;
church. who was the first to suspect that
his tale was not straight. He called the
attention of Captain Boardman to the
actions of the man. Central Office De

After little investigation they learn
ed that man answering to the descrip-
ton given of Doyle had been getting
railroad fare from several other clergy
men of. the city. 1t was then decided
to have him apprehended.
In order to attain this end a descrip-
