PRESS CLUB MEETS PRESS CLUB.
Visitors From Chicago Entertained by
the Local Organization.

Members Of the Chicago Press Club to
the number Of ninety-fve, including the
wives Of twenty-five Members got to New
York early yesterday morning in special
train and yesterday fell into the hands of
q committee from the New York Press Club.
The day began with a joke. All hands
left the Hotel Breslin about II o'clock and
ernment boat John G. Carlisle, used mostly
by immigrants, was waiting. At Ellis
Island the officials We're told that the bunch
were contract laborers and hadn't q whole
lot Of money.
Some Of them did show as much as 80
the inspectors that they should be Be- allowed to o
land in America. But they were fed and
ordered deported. The boat took the party
to Blackwell's Island, where for time they
were locked up in the workhouse.
At the Press Club in Nassau street, last
George H. Rowe. who is president Of the
local club, proposed the name Of Homer
Carr for honorary membership. He said
that the only other person 80 proposed
was w. j. Bryan, and when that name was
mentioned nearly everybody went wild,
takers chairs on which they had been
sitting to eat and cheered until they were
hoarse.
Opie Read, who was sitting at the head
table, was mistaken for Bryan by local
members and was pelted with flowers and
confecions The milk wagons were going
the rounds when the speeches came to an
end this morning.
To-day the visitors are going on rubber
neck wagons around town, will shake hands
with the Mayor and in the afternoon go
to the Hippodrome. Tonight the ladie
are going to see "The Prince Chap" While
the men will attend vaudeville smoker at
the club. Saturday morning they will go
to West Point, and on Saturday night see
the Bowery and Chinatown.

CONSUMPTION CURE NOT FINAL.
London Lancet" Warns Against Hasty
Acceptance or Behring's Conclusions.

Special Gable Despatch TO THE Sun.
LONDON, Oct. 12-The Lancet will say on
Saturday:
Prof Behring is pathologist OF world
wide reputation, with splendid record
of past achievements, and We may hope
that his confidence in his own work will
once again be justified Nevertheless, we
cannot but deprecate the great publicity
which has been given to an investigation
which at the present time is very far from
complete"
In showing the individuality Of premature
publicity as to a cure for consumption, the
Lancet emphasizes the fact that it is calcu-
lated to raise hopes that at best are only
realizable in the distant future.

COLER MAY RUN IN BROOKLYN.

A committee Of the Municipal Ownership
League Of Brooklyn held conference
yesterday with former Comptroller Bird s.
Coler and rendered him the nomination
for President Of the borough on the ticket
of the organization.
Mr. Coler romised to accept the nomina-
ton in case the league would name only
first class candidates as his associates on
the county ticket. He was assured that
all his associates on the ticket would mea-
sure up to his standard.
With Ma jor Ebstein as the Republican

Coler in the race as the no minee Of the Mu-
nicipal Ownership League, the chances OF
Jimmy Ridgway's installation in the old
Borough Hall as Brooklyn's first citizen are

Dr Diefenbach described his method Of
treat mcnt In detail II consists In dipping
oelluloid tf hard ruhlar rods into solutions
Of salts OF radium These rods are then
inserted into incisiohs made in tuuors.
The effect Of the radio activity. he said,
was To destroy the diseased tissue. An
cleo, roscope Is necessary in the treatment
TO determine whether the rod IL radio
active.
In the case OF cancers the radium Ii APP

and the treatment II external. He men,
toned the case OF one man, - years Of age,
who was treated In Flower Hospital for a
tumor on the foot Two radioactive rods
were inserted in the growth. When they
were removed, two days later, the tissue
was much darker than before.
After short interval two more rods
were inserted These left the tumor fria ble
and It easily removed There has been a
slight recurrence, but the doctor hopes
.t.t- i
There are some hopeless cases, where the
growths have spread over large areas. The
application of radium IL useless In these
cases. DR.. Diefenbach admitted that he
does not fully understand the action Of the
radium salts.
Prof. Hugo Iieher Of this city has been
experimenting in injecting radum into the
tissues without the Use of rods or sheets
of cellnloid. In the case Of one rabbit on
which he was experimenting, the injection
caused rapid respiration and pulse for
an hour and half during which period
the rabbit was fast asleep and could not he
awakened At the end Of that period it
awoke. Its breath had great influence
on the electroscope, showing that it was
charged with radum.
He said that three cases OF tumor and can
Ger had been treated with remarkable
success at Flower Hospital. This marked
distinct advance in medical knowledge.
Though at present the subject was vague,
they hoped soon to have moro light
DR.. William H King cited case Of tumor
Of the ear which had been cured by the
use OF radium. The effect was very similar
to that of ultra violet rays. Practically
no scar was left A little whiteness re-
suited, but that was explainable by the de-
struction of the pigment in the skin. Cases
in parts of the body where the circulation
is feeble have been most successful.
1t is important, he said, to restrict the
circulation to certain parts. so that the
effects may be localized. Otherwise the
blood will carry the radium around with 1t.
Here also. he thought is a cure for tuber-
oulosis. By injection OF radium the
breath becomes charged. This must have
purifying effect on the lungs.

But he waited until the seventh day
after Beluche's departure, passing
meanwhile from wonder to Impotence
at the latter's delay. and at having re-
ceiyed no message from mis- ennis
saries in New Orleans.
1t was Nato who told LATTE that
Count de Cazeneau had removed to
Kanauhana. a small plantation ad-
joining La Tete des Faux. The boy
said that the count had purchased
1t. and was removing all his slaves
and other property from New Orleans.
LATTE was. for reasons of his own,
surprised at this piece of information.
and now summoned Baptistine, the
captain of the polacca upon which
Nato had returned.
Much of what Baptistine had to tell
was already known to LATTE, but the
former added to this by saying that
the ferment among the citizens of
New Orleans appeared to be growing
more violent each day There was
