the league are baseball crazy but they
must have good teams I'm order TO keep up

has resulted in high salaries being paid
to players. The hackers of the club in all
the towns are wealthy men who were in

ever made any money and they never ex-

KOCH'S THEORY REFUTED
Infected Milk Responsible for a Major
ity Of Tubercular Diseases.

LONDON. Feb. 4-The Royal Com
mission on tuberculosis which was ap-
pointed in August, 1901. has just issued
a lengthy report on tubercular diseases.
This report sets forth that man is liable
to infection by bovine tuberculosis and
that cows milk containing tuberculosis
bacini is responsible for a majority OF
the cases OF such infection. These find-
ings are supported by long series Of
exhaustive experiments and researches,
which are described I'm the report.
The report is considered to be Of the
greatest Importance as demonstrating
conclusively that the theory Of Profess
sor Robert Koch. of Berlin, announced
in 1900. was based upon insufhc ent and
misinterpreted observation. This COM
mission was appointed as a result Of
Professor Koch's assertion that bovine
and human tuberculosis were quite dis
tinct diseases. The chairman of the
commission VAS the late Sir Michael
Foster.
