that it was likely that the case
would be finished sometime Friday.
DR.. Marcum resumed the stand
yesterday afternoon for re-cross
examination by Senator Peterson.
The witness acknowledged that
a year ago he would have used
5000 units of antitoxin as an initial
dose in severe case of diphtheria
but declared that he would not
have used a dose of 10000 units.
At the request of the counsel for
the plaintiff he agreed to hunt up
a few reports he had of sudden
deaths following the injection of
antitoxin. Senator Peterson quoted
Mutual & Graham to the effect that
$4,000 people had been injected
in New York City and only two OF
these died, one having asthma and
the cause in the other being un.
known.
DR.. Marcum thought it would be
proper to lance the tonsils in case
of diphtheria provided they were
sore and swollen, declaring that Pro
fessor Kernig of Germany agrees
with him on that subject. The wit
ness had made a practice of Ian cine
the tonsils in order to relieve
pressure and congestion and tc
remove danger of the formation Of
an abcess.
Then followed a minute discussion
of the germs and bacilli and tht
attack of the germs upon the blood.
Questioned by Senator Peterson
DR.. Marcum declared that he had
never been interested in a case o
malpractice and did not at the pres
ent time have any case pending II
the district court in which he hat
given a prescription causing thu
death of his patient.
In redirect examination Mr.. Nc
Donald read from medical author
ties telling of the effects of the US
of antitoxin and showed the wi
ness a Park-Davis syringe contain
ing 1000 units of antitoxin whlc
was larger than a Lederle's syring
containing 5000 units.
DR.. Marcum testified that he ha
had diphtheria at one time an
used either 1000 or 5000 units
an initial dose and a secor
dose of either 1000
5000 units. He had recovered, ;
least he thought he had, and b
lieved that to be a good dose.
DR.. Marcum admitted that /
would not have administered 500
units of antitoxin unless he ha
previously diagnosed the case
Iaryngeal diyhtheria. A year a
the physician who believed
minimum doses2 would probat
have administered about 1000 un
and the other physicians would ha
given as high and even higher tn
10000 units.
In re-cross examination the "
ness stated that the hives, which
suit after the administration Of ar
toxin, may last from two or tn
DAYS to two or three weeks but
doctors experience had been fir
one to three days. There was me-
reading from a medical book by n
Farlane.
Senator Peterson-D Do you KIN
when this author advised the use
1000 units on the average?"
DR.. Marcum-No."
Senator Peterson-"That was
1907. What would you give in 1:
for an initial dose of larnygeal di
theria?"

some are selfish and fussy. For my
pets, I have eight dolls, one cat, one
calf, and one turkey, and have a
playhouse. Your cousin and friend,
