COUGH NOW IN SIGHT

PARIS. June 1.-THE discovery in
the near future of cure for whoop-
/ ing-cough was predicted today At the
Academy Of Sciences by DR.. Emile
Roux director Of the Pasteur Insti-
tute.
Dr.. Roux was merely transmitting
the report Of DR.. Alfred Coner bae-
teriologist Of the Nelvedere Military
Hospital Tunis. where with the col
la boration Of Dr. Nicolie he had pre-
pared d solution containing living
whooping cough baciiH which they
injected into 122 children suffering
from the disease. repeating it every
two days. Thirty-seven per cent. Of
the children recovered in less than
three weeks, whereas under ordinary
treatment the mildest attacks lasted
two months.
Dr. Knux, while declaring that the
experiments thus far were on too
small a scale to make a definite pro
noancement, said he believed an
effective cure for whooping cough
was in sight

teetives. Connolley and another

proceeds were divided. Waters turned
States evidence and related his part
Of the transactions. Connolley denied
he was implicated in the thefts
AS there was no attorney for the
government present, Commissioner

penter, of Jersey City, to represent
the government. William McTague,
of this city, was assigned to defend
the prisoners. Both defendants were
held for the federal grand jury which

Mrs. Mary Saiewerska. of 4s6 Market
street. and her daughter, Mrs Mary
Juziviak, of the same address, were
arrested following an examination in
the Third Precinct Court today. Judge

row.

years old, of Al Monroe street, was
found not guilty, but was also held
until tomorrow, to allow the court to
go deeper into the circumstances of
the case Detective Brex made an in
vestigation and reported to the judge
today.
1t is alleged that because Hugoroski
refused to elope with Mrs. Salewer-
ska, who is widow, the charge was
trumpet UP against him. Hugoroski
is married and has two small chill
dren.
In deciding to hold the women, who
when they found the police were look
ing into the matter, asked to with
draw the complaint, the court COM
mented on the number of complaints
that have been made In the past
where the defendant proved to be the
prosecuted person.
The defendant, through his counsel,
julius Feldman. brought witnesses
who furnished an alibi for him on the
night in question, last Saturday.
