COMPLAINTS BEGIN TO COME.
I. G. G. Likely to Have a Very Busy
Time

Several important complaints were filed
with the interstate commerce commission
today, some of them involving questions
which heretofore have been considered by
the commission.
Advantage is taken by the compliments
of the new railroad rate law to get their
cases before the commission under con-
ditions more favorable to them than here
tofore have existed. The number of COM
plants filed today indicates that the COM
mission Is likely to have a busy time in
the next few months, for 1t is known that
many other complaints are practically ready
for filing and that they have been with
held only until the new act should become
effective.

in Chicago.

CHICAGO. August 3O.-Because James A.
Roach was cured of paralysis he died. On
April q Roach. who was nineteen years Of
age. was shot by policeman. He recov-
cred from the wound but the lower part Of
his body became paralyzed and he was I'M

lard Hospital in this city continued to
treat him for the paralysis and short
time ago noticed that life was returning to

physicians, become weakened by his suf-
ferings and he was unable to Withstand
the shock and pain which accompanied the
return of life to the paralyzed portion OF

Blue LIeHT PRODUCES sLEEP.

The fact that colored rays may be used as an
anesthetic IS the interesting announcement Of Pro-
fessor C. Redard. OF Geneva Switzerland. The ap-
paratus employed is simple. consisting Of an cleo
trio incandescent lamp. with blue globe and a
hector, together with blue veil used for covering
the face of the patient and excluding all traces OF
sunlight while the rays doing their work Doc
tor Redard claims that after the patient has at
tentively fixed his eyes the blue rays for two
or three minutes he will become unconscious after
which a small surgical operation-such, for exam
pie, as the removal of a tOoth-can be performed
without causing the patient the slightest pain The
awakening from the effects Of the rays is quite
gradual, and no dangerous or even UNPLEASANT
symptoms are noticed--Technical World Magazine.
