IMPORTANT MEDICAL ].
DISCOVERY MADE
Antitoxin for Pneumonia, Blood
Poison and Typhoid.

Boston, Feb. 1: After two years OF
perimenting vaccine, which, 1t Is
said, will successfully check the germs
of pneumonia, blood poisoning and
typhoid fever, has been discovered in
the laboratory of Tufts medical
school. The announcement is made
through DR.. Timothy Leary, head
pathologist at the school, who said
that an antitoxin for these three dis
eases had been perfected and that ar
rangements would soon be made to
supply physicians. The Tuft pathol-
ogists worked into practical use the
theories advanced by Sir A. r. Wright
Of London that dead germs automat-
ically create an antitoxin in the blood
for all living germs of the same kind
in other words, dead germs in the
blood form a poison that is fatal to all
living germs of the same kind with
which it comes in contact. Following
out this theory it was proved that it
Is possible to inject into the blood
dead germs and that after the inoc-
ulation they will form this antitoxin,
fatal to all living germs of the same
kind. Working on this it was only
question Of isolating che germ in ques-

SENATE REPORT ON
The SECRET SERVICE
Administration Not Hampered by
Law Limiting Operations.

Washington, Feb. IL! - Senator
Hemenway presented in the senate
the report of the committee on appro-
priations concerning the effect of the
limitations on the secret service con-
tanned in the sundry civil bill for the
fiscal year~1e09, which limitation was
the subject of protest by President
Roosevelt in his annual message to
congress. The subject was investi-
gated by special committee consist
ing of Senators Hemenway, Gallinger
and Clay, who found the administra-
ton had not been hampered by the
action of congress in limiting the OPP
erations of the secret service.
Discussing the report in speech
on the senate floor Mr.. Hemenway
said that the appropriations for the
secret service began with $4,000 IN
1857 and had been increased and de-
creased from time to time until for
the fiscal year 1908 the appropriation
was $4,000, which enabled the reg
ular employment of about sixty-five
men, -

THINK COOK LABORS
UNDER AN ILLUSION

Philadelphia, Sept. 3.-That Dr. Cook 5
reported discovery Of the north pole may
be a mental illusion on the part OF the
explorer superinduCed by the mOnOtOny
of d two years soiOurn in the polar re-
giOns, was the belief expressed today by
DR.. Robert NJ Kelly of this city. DIT.
keeIy accompanied Peary on his North
Greenland expedition in 1912, and thus
became intimately acquainted with DIT.
Cook. who was a m mber of the party.
From what ] know of the Peary eX-
petition and the conditions near the pole, -
he said, Il can only conclude that Dr.
Cook is making a sincere statement, but
the veTacity of it is a question of mental
illusion.
4 do not believe it is impossible to
reach the pole, but it is improbable that
one man can accomplish the feat As
for the Esquimaux, their testimony is
vaIueless. They do not even know what
the north pole means
''Peary and Cook were within 200 miles
Cook made daily observations, a compari-
son OF the conditions of the ice or
weather would mean a great deal. II
Peary reports an unusual condition OF
the ice, alone, il will partly confirm Dr.
Cooks statement, for with nothing short
of that could the pole have been reached
The ice drift has never been northward,
according to reports Of any OF the eX-
plOrers in any expedition.
Travelling 100 miles in seven days, as
DR.. Cooks story would indicate, seems
impossible. ] confidently believe that Dr.
Cook was affected by the strain of his
Journey and has come TO believe that he
has really reached the pole

NOTED EXPLORER GIVES
PRAISE TO DR.. COOK

Rome, Sept. IA correspondent of the
Tribuua interviewed Captain UmbertO
Cagni president of the International PO-
lar commission, and himself an explorer
Of note, on his arrival today at Gaeta
aboard the battleship NapOH. Captain
Cagni said what D.. Cook had done was
a marvellous piece of enterprise worthy
of his daring. He believed DR.. Cook
would be capable Of scientifically prov
ing up to a certain point that he had
reached the pole, and declared that one
who has the courage to face the polar
dangers cannot be a man of bad faith.
1.-The Arctic explorer said Captain
Cagni. EITHER must be a genuine scien-
fist or a sWindler DR.. Cook is not a
swindler. His undertaking is astonish-
ing.
Captain Cagni hoped that when full
details were at hand they would be mag
nificent proof that human activity had
accomplished the task which for so long
had defeated the scientists.
Professor EmanuelH, the astronomer
points out that DR.. Cook must have wit
messed the total eclipse of the sun which
was visible only from the pole just at
the time he is supposed to have reached
it. This. the astronomer said. would give
him an opportunity to prove scientifically
that he had reached the pole.
