TESTS ENCOURAGE
GERMAN SCIENTIST
Physicians Laud DIR. Friedman
After Watching His Oper.
atoms Yesterday

NEW YORK. March 10-Satisfied
that as a result OF the interest taken
in his claims by the Federal Marine
Hospital service, he has nothing
more to worry about 80 far as having
his chance to demonstrate the worth
OF his discovery, Dr. Frederick Franz
Friedman today prepared for his
trip TO Canada. The German savant,
who insists that his turtle baccilli Is
an absolute specific for tuberculosis,
remained close to his hotel apartment
denying himself TO all corners while
he prepared samples OF his culture to
take along with him. and rested from
his strenuous exertions OF the last
week
The doctor and his brother were
well pleased with the favorable COM
ments that followed the administra-
ton OF his cure" to seven patients
at Mount Sinai hospital. yesterday.
These cases are officially government
ones. The doctor OF record In them
Is DR.. Arthur Stimson, Of the Marine
Hospital Service He will remain here
In charge OF them while DR.. John +.
Anderson returns to Washington and
GILL on living monkeys.
On his return to this city the latter
part Of the week, DR.. friedman will
administer the germs to additional
patients until f,e88 have been ineea--
lated.
He has made it plain that he will
prefer that joint and bone cases be
brought to him because 1t will be
easier to determine whether the cure
Is proving beneficial. but also said
that he will treat pulmonary cases
when possible.
In marked contrast to the
criticisms early showered on DR..
Friedman for the manner Of his
work all Of the doctors who saw him
In action both on Saturday and yes
terday were loud in praise of his
technique. They said that no matter
what the merit of his cure they were
well satisfied that he was q skilful
member of their profession. and en-
titled TO all consideration.
DR.. W.. II. Park, who Is conducting
the board OF health examination OF
the Friedman baccilli, said today
that so far everything DR.. Friedman
had told him had been borne out by
the developments.
One OF the first callers on Dr. Fried
mann today was DR.. Dandesman, OF
the Peoples Home hospital. where
Friedman treated his first three
cases. He reported that the two men
treated, who were suffering from we'll
defined pulmonary tuberculosis in the
early stages, were doing splendidly"
According to DR.. Landesman the night
sweats and pains In the chest have dis
appeared already, and the patients be-
lieve they are certain Of cure.
While DR.. friedman Is in Canada
the visiting physicians In Mount Sinai
hospital will chart all Of the other
cases that will be treated by the Ger
man specialist on his return. II was
explained today to Offset certain
criticisms. that the administration Of
the Friedman baccilli does not con.
sist merely of taking hypodermic
syringe, sticking 1t into tube OF the
culture. drawing 1t out and injecting
II Into the patient. From three to Ave
hours are necessary in separating the
bacciIIi under the microscope and get
ting them in exactly in the form in
which they must be given TO the
patient.
