Captain Scott and His Sc Followers
Perish in South Pole Blizzard

tain Robert f. Scott and his party were
overwhelmed by a blizzard on their re-
turn journey from the South Pole. The
entire party persisted.
They reached the South Pole on the
18th Of January. 1912.
The news of the appalling disaster
which befell Captain Scott and his COM
panions was brought to this port by a
signalled message from the Terra Nova,
the vessel which had carried the ex.
plorer and his expedition to the Ant
arctic and which late last year went
once again to the south to bring him
and his companions back.
The total number of deaths involved
in the calamity is not known, but it is
said sc scientists and sailors lost their
lives.
Captain Scott's party reached the X.
act point where Ronald Amundsen
planted the Norwegian flag at the south
pole. They found there the hut con-
strncted and left behind by Amundsen's
party.
These facts were recorded in the docu.
ments found on the bodies of the ex.
plorers when they were recovered.

remarkable cures that had come under their
notice, mainly cases that had been referred by

The Battle Resumed

this morning with a light artillery fire.
The action soon became general. all
the artillery On both sides being brought
into play. The cannon fire was aug
mented by sweeping salvos from the
machine guns, while the infantry came
into action with volleys and individual
shooting.
The artillery fire of the rebels from
their position at the arsenal extended
in several directions on account of the
encircllng tactics adopted by the Gov.
eminent troops.
Diaz turned his guns in the direction
of the British Legation shortly after
noon in order to reply to the fire of a
federal battery stationed there.
Y. M. C. A. Building Sheledr
The rebels strengthened their position
by placing more men and field guns on
the Y. NJ. @. A. building, commanding
the arsenal. against which the Govern
ment troops continued to direct a ter
rible fire from their artillery and small
arms.
For four hours continuously during the
forenoon the Federal troops shelled the
positions Of the rebels without great ef-
feet The rebels returned the fire much
more vigorously than yesterday. Their
heavier guns hurled Strapped aud solid
shot iuto the heart of the business dis
trict.
For many hours after the opening
OF to-day's battle the artillery fire OF the
Federal troops did not appear to do great
damage TO the rebel positions.
Diaz soon brought his heavy guns
vigorously to bear. He made every eff.
fort to dislodge the Federal rifemen
and machine gunners from the higher
buildings. AT the same time he directed
a constant fire ON the new National
Theater. about which q considerable DOR.
ton OF the federal artillery was sta.
toned. In this latter eff rt he was
fairly successful.

Washington, February $50 much iterest
has been expressed in this country cor serning
the reported new cure for consumption dis
covered by DIR. +. F. Friedman Of Berlin
that the government is rushing out a public
document containing all the information
available. The subject matter is now in the
course Of printing in the government printing
Office. The Internationa News Serviceto-day
obtained an exclusive review of the informa-
ton it contains.
The document contains a report from Con-
sui General Thackara at Berlin to the State
department. 1t also gives the address before
the Berlin Medical Society, delivered Novem-
Der 6 last, in which DIR. friedman announced
his discovery and told something of its re-
suits. This is followed by discussions of
other eminent German physicians who give
testimonials Of some Of the good results
claimed by DR.. Friedman. The majority
Of these physicians had turned cases they re-
garded as hopeless over to DR.. Friedman for
treatment and we're amazed at successful
cures affected.
Claims Success
The new treatment consists in the injection
Of a solution prepared by the doctor himself,
which he claims contains living non-virulent
bacilli taken from the cold-blooded animals,
in contradistinction to the virulent organism
contained in Koch's tuberkulin and other
tuberculosis remedies. Up to November
Is last, DIR. friedman claims to have treated
1882 cases and said incubation was an assured
success.
DIR. friedman has so far concealed the
method of preparing his remedy fer use. He
announces that he does not want to disclose
this secret until he should be prepared to
manufacture it in sufficient quantities to
supply the profession. At present he is treat
ing all cases that comes to his institute in
Berlin.
The consul general reports hat the medical
profession in Berlin have not accepted the
remedy as of practical use and reserve judg-
ment until they have been given an oppor-
tunity to make their own tests. All seem to
admit, however, that DIR. Friedman has eff
fected some wonderful cures and they are in
terested in the discovery.
