CLAIMS A CURE
FOR TUBERCULOSIS
Discovery of Minneapolis Ply
stefan Is Said TO Rival DIR.
Friedmann's

! MINNEAPOLIS, MINI, FEB. 3.-The
Minneapolis Daily News today prints
the story OF the discovery OF a tuber-
culosis cure by DR.. j II. Burgan, OF
tcis city, which is said by physicians
here 10 rival that OF DR.. Franz Fried
itch Friedman, OF Berlin. DR.. Bur
gan also uses a serum, but works on
a different theory as TO the cause OF
the disease.
The method he uses Is to inject
serum token from healthy pigs In such
way as to strengthen the resistance
OF the cells In the body. He dispdtes
the long accredited theory OF Or. Koch
as &c the cause OF the disease. He
says that the germ known az the
Koch tubercle Is negligible factor In
the development OF tuberculosis, and
that weak resistance Of the body 10
the real cause.
His cure, therefore, disputes that ~
friedman In that he goes On the
hypothesis that injecting germs TO
killing tubercles In the system Is or
no avail, and that the only way TO
overcome the disease Is to strengthen
| the resistance OF the body SO tEat
germs cannot live In IT,
By research lasting l3 years, Dr.
Burgan has developed a serum which
he says can accomplish this. He has
tested Il on half dozen patients and
gives the records OF cures effected In
each.
He says he will furnish this serum
to public dispensaries and hospitals
at the cost OF making 1t. so that 1t will
be available TO the public at cost
low enough TO be OF service even TO
the poorest.

death in cruel form when two bur-
glars beat her into insensibility, and
after plundering the cash drawer Of

while searching for more plumber.
They left, leaving her unconscious on
the floor. while the blaze in her bed
room threatened the destruction OF
the building. and the death OF the
helpless woman.
Neighbors happened to discover the
flames, and rushed TO her assistance,
In time TO extinguish the fire with
small damage, and rescue Mrs. Wend-
l\ldt from her dangerous position.
She was drawing the shades OF her
store when the two men entered and
one leveled revolver at her head
and demanded money. She was too
frightened TO speak, and the pair
backed her into her bedroom, where
one suddenly struck her with his fist,
rendering her unconscious.
Police have been unable to get any
trace of the robbers, and Mrs. Wend
landt is on the verge of nervous col
lapse as the result OF her experience.

ASQUITH PURSE

SOCIAL DUTIES
Premier Is Mentioned for Chief

Special Gable to The American.

LONDON, July 5.-Premier Asquish
is said by his friends to be serious
~ considering taking the office of
Lord Chief Justice of England, from
which Lord Alverstone is soon to re-
tire, so that the Premier may be as
sured of a permanent income for the
remainder of his life. The fact is that
Asquith, who was considered a while
ago TO be very rich man, has been
left dependent upon his salary as Pre-
mler of $4,000 a year. owing, 1t is
said, to the extravaganza of his wife.
Her father, Sir Charles Tenant,
settled on her a dowry of $500, 900 in
1895, and Asquith, who had been earn
ing 100000 a year as a lawyer had
large sum in accumulated savings,
but Mrs. Asquith has spent every cent
of this.

The financial demand of the Pre-
mier is now so great that he is com

ing been Prime Minister. Therefore
he must find himself one of the high
judicial posts. The best. next to that
of Lord Chancellor, is the Lord Chief

Churchill Needs Salary.
Nearly all Asquiths colleagues are
perturbed by the possibility of los
ing at the next election their salaries
of $4,000 a year, especially Winston
Churchill who has always lived well
and is absolutely dependent on his
salary.
John Burns is about the only mem
Der Of the Cabinet who is unmoved.
He never increased the scale Of his
expenditure, which is $1,000 a year,
and has saved nearly all of his sal

office has made to him is that he now
rides home in a taxicab instead Of the
trolley car which he used to patronize.

OUTLINE WAR IN

Lively Fight Is Waged Between
Hammerstein, Gatti-Casazza
and Campanini for Barrientos.
BY CHARLES HENRY MELTZER.
Special Gable to The American.


PARIS, July 5.-After discussions
which had lasted for nine months. the
French Academy Of Medicine has
reached the decision that all cases of
tuberculosis should be reported to a
doctor sworn to professional secrecy
and that the sufferers, if too poor to
pay for treatment. should be cared
for by the powers that be. gratuitous-
ly. Though the decision only points
the way to a much needed and beneti-
cent reform, it has great weight and
will no doubt be made effective by
the legislative.
Chief credit for whatever good may
follow goes to DR. RouX director of
the Pasteur Institute.
Apart from the project for found
ing a French Theater in New York
already published, | understand that
a second scheme of an entirely diff
ferent kind is being talked of here
for permitting hungry Americans to
feast on good drama Details will be
made public later
Arthur Hammerstein, who is still
in Paris, tells me he has quite given
up his old business to assist his So
cratic, or as some might say. his
Diogenic father in his opera cam
paign. He also informs me that he,
not Jacques Coini. is now his fathers
official representative in Europe.
Claims Sopranos Contract.
1t has already been stated and
denied with solemn emphasis that
Madame Barrientos, the charming
and gifted ColoTatura soprano, who
made such an impression this spring
at the TheateT Champs Elysees. has
been engaged by Arthur Hammer
stein.
Arthur Hammerstein explained the
case to-day
Madame Barrientos," said he is
now in South America. We have en-
gagged her by cable and to clinCh the
contract | have deposited $4,000 in
the Credit Lyonese.
"Gatti- Casazza is furious and has
Cabled Madame Barrientos, as ! hear.
to try to stop the engagement. Mr.
AstruC, of Paris. who is the ladys
agent, has been dragged into the con-
troVersy. The fact is that Barrientos
was repeatedly offered to Gatti- Ca
sa2za and Campanani. but they both
missed their chance"
Mr.. Hammerstein also assured me
that while his father might be I'M

Three novelties promised for next
