His new companions hit upon the
plan of using Dawson's fame as

probable winners of big stakes a week
or more in advance of the races, thus
causing heavy play on the favorite,

Then Dawson was furnished with pol

choice, leaving the field clear for \
cleanup by his hackers. The scheme
was exposed when Lord Foley lost
three of his best racers at Newmarket

latter turned kings evidence. Daw-

FOREIGN NEWS NOTES

Berlin, Aug. 5.-Dr Max Moszkowski
of Berlin, VINO has won distinction by
his scientific researches in New
Guinea, succeeding in giving himself
an unmistakable case OF beri-beri by
living for 13S days upon a diet con-
sisting almost exclusively OF hulled
rice. He believes his experiments sup.
port the theory formerly held by him,
that beEi-oeFi is a disease induced by
certain foods and not due to an in
lection OF any kind from without, as
has been maintained by many investi-
gators.
DR.. Moszkowski, who in 1911 ad-
vaaced his theory in an address before
the Berlin Medical society, reported
at the society's last meeting the re-
suits of the experiment which he has
just finished. After a few weeks of
hulled rice diet the nervous disturb
ances accompanying beri-beri appear
ed, and the case was then diagnosed
as befi-beri by DR.. Schuffner, the noted
authority in this line. The typical
dropsical affection of the skin followed
with soreness of certain groups of
muscles, stomachic disturbances, and
eventually the typical and dangerous
Irregularities of the heart action.
DR.. Mos5kowski then treated him
self with injections of an extract pre-
pared from rice bulls. He recovered
rapidly and is now quite well. Inpec,
tons of this extract also cured pigeons
and hens which had become affected
with beri-beri after hulled rice diet
DR.. Moszkowski believes the hulled
