the result of the new tariff No indus
tries have shut down, and according 20
the manufacturers there is nothing in
the immediate future which portends a
decrease in business.
Boston, Oct. 15.-Boston manufacture

a basis under the old tariff and
much more certain.

business. No plants have suspended; !;

at capacity.

the result of the new tariff.

SECRET KNOWN
TO SCIENTISTS
All Germany Is Experimenting
With Reported Tubercu-
losis Cure
BACCILLI Is TAKEN
FROM PATIENTS ARM
Already Established. Says Ply
stefan, 1t Will Help Many
Sufferers

PERRIN. Jan. 22.-German scien-
fists today said that they had out.
witted DR.. Friedrich friedman. dis
coverer of Friedmann's tuberculosis
cure" and they hope soon to be able
tn-say -.an fiFst-hand- information
whether The Friedman cure is
genuine or not.
Professor Felix Klemperer. a scien-
fist, announced that he had obtained
the consent OF one OF Friedmann's
patients to withdraw from his arm
tie baccilh that had been injected BY
friedman. The germ has been re-
produced in large quantities, Klein
perer said, and scientists all over
Germany are experimenting with the
bacclli.
Il acted In the name of humanity"
Klemperer said, "and II this germ is
what Friedman claims II is, We will
shortly give II TO the world
You may say, that already admit
that the germ will help many SUI
fereIs. but cannot as yet say II will
helm all"
In another weii-known Berlin labor
atory, the friedman culture is be-
ing propagated and experimental
with by one OF the most eminent
scientists OF Germany, formerly a
colleague OF Friedman, whose name
is withheld.
Prof. August Bier, a most violent
enemy OF Friedman, has obtained
some OF the baccilli, and Is conducting
experiments on tubercuiar guinea
pigs. He conceded that many re-
markable cures had been effected and
said that apparently the friedman
cure was genuine.
Thus, scientists throughout Ger
many are conducting the experiments
that Friedman refused to permit. and
ii was said today thAt in short time
the medicaI experts OF Europe will be
enabled TO pass authoritatively on the
merits Of Friedmanns discovery.
