AWAITS DETAILS.
Not Entirely Convinced That the Re-
suits at New Orleans Are
Conclusive.

NEW YORK, Sept. 2S.-While the
announcement from New Orleans Of
the discovery of the yellow fever germ
excited much interest In the medical
profession in New York, among bac.
t~eriologists generally there appeared
to be a unanimous agreement to
await the publication of fuller reports
before commenting.
At the meteorological laboratory of
the Health Department 1t was said
that the fact that the psychologists
Of New Orleans were conducting the
experiments vas known, and II furth.
err investigation established conclu-
sively that they have discovered the
yellow fever germ It would be one of
the great feats of science.
Only one thing could be found In
the report that might suggest posi-.
bility of failure, and that was the adj
mission that examination of fresh
blood had led to negative results.
That has been the experience of every
other bacteriologist that had tried to
discover the organism, and when it
came to using blood that was not
fresh there Is SC much danger of dis
torted forms due to chemical change
in the blood itself that the right re-
suit is doubtful.
DR.. Ewing, professor In the medical
department Of Cornell University,
who is regarded as one of the fore
most authorities on blood in the pro.
.fession, said that the discovery of the
organism would be most important.
But there are SO many things not
yet settled, so many that must be con.
s%idered," he said. that l cannot give
an opinion now"

Threat.

MoRGANToWN, Sept. 2s.-The
committee appointed at the Monday
night session of the city council to
serve notice on the Union Utility
company to repair the streets within
80 days, or suffer the annullment of
its charter, has fulfilled its mission.
The notice was served on H. R. War
field, manager Of the company.
Tie streets mentioned in the no.
tice are those along which the a
line runs, and which are paved with
brick. The city claims that in some
places these streets have never been
put in repair since they were torn up
to lay the tracks.
The company claims the opposite,
and says that the streets we're put in
/ repair, and that the matter is settled
so far as the company is concerned.
l does not intend to repair any one of
the streets complained of.
Mr.. Warfield said that the city
might make good its threat to annul
the street car franchise If It wanted
to do so. The cars will stop in 80
days. He says that no money is made
from operating the cars in winter.
II they quit running he is Of the opin.
ion that public sentiment will see that
they are started again.

DIR. o. L. Pothier's announcement that
ne and his colleagues. Drs. Watson
and Hume and Professor Couret, have
identified what they have reason to
believe is the active agent in yellow
fever has created d furore in local med.
ical circles.
Some Of the older local physicians
are inclined to belittIe the discovery,
and point to the Investigations Of DR..
Joseph Jones, former president OF the
State. Board of Health IN 1878. when
microscopic investigations OF the
Blood of yellow fever patients was a r
cied to the point of a~scertaining the
granular and stellate characteristics
of the red corpuscles.
Another element holds that the in.
yestigations by DR.. Pothier. &c, have
carried the process OF elimination to
such a point that the identity of the
cellular forms discovered Is practical.
ly as that of the active agent in vel.
low fever.
DR.. Pothier wa silent, save to re.
iterate what he said last night. His
future course will be to trace the cellu-
lar forms through the mosquito from
the time Of biting a yellow fever pa
tfent to transmitting the disease to
another person.
