A GREAT GATHERING OF DELEGATES
IN ATLANTA.
Atlanta, November 15.—The second
day of the Womens Christian Temperance
Union Convention was attended by dele
gates from every State and Territory and
Canada, Mauitoba and Mexico.
Miss Francis E. Williard presided, and
encouraging reports from various superin
tendents were read. The report of the
world’s Womens Christian Temperance
Union was especially interesting and
showed a wonderful increase in the work
of the union all over the world. The city
is full of delegates and visitors, and pri
vate residences, hotels and boarding
houses are full to overflowing. The
Womens Christian Temperance Union
has made a splendid impression upon the
people of the city, and there is not stand
ing room in Trinity Methodist church,
where the convention is being held. The
evening session was especially interesting,
and the house full to overflowing. As last
evening, the overflow meetings were held
in the lecture room and addressed by dis
tinguished members of the division. Ar
rangements were made for services by prom
inent women of the Woman’s Christian
Temperance Union in all churches tomor
row, and in some there will be two or three
services.
THE KNIGHTS OF LABOR AND POWDERI.Y.
Denver, Col., November 15. — The
Knights of Labor took up the entire ses
sion yesterday in considering the rejtort of,
the committee on laws. This work will
probably be concluded today, when a more
important question will be brought before
the Assembly. Little has been said re
garding candidates for various offices that
are chosen at this meeting, but there ap
pears to be a general feeling that there
will be no opposition made to Powderly’s
election as General Master Workman.
Some prominent Knights are consulting as
to the advisability of the Knights entering
into politics.

PARNELL RETIRES FROM THE LEADER
SHIP.
London, November 15.—The Dublin
Express says that Parnell has informed
several of his most prominent men in the
Irish parliamentary party that he will not
lead the party in Parliament during the
coming session.
ANOTHER RAILROAD WRECK.
Pittsburg, November 15.—The fast
west bound express on the Baltimore and
OKo, jumped the track six miles east of
Clarksburg, W. Ya., at 10 o’clock this
morning, and collided with the sleeper of
the working train. Several cars were
wrecked, and the track torn up for a hun
dred yards. Ir. the working trainflames
Floyd and J. D. Armstrong, bosses, were
fatally hurt. In the postal car Clerk
Charles Dean, George Henry and William
Barden were seriously hurt. The loss
to the railroad company is very heavy.
BIRMINGHAM GOSSIP.
Birmingham, November 15.—[Special.]
The Ancient Order of Hibernians of this
city have invited Dillon and O’Brien to
visit Birmingham. It is likely they will
accept, as they have consented to go to
New Orleans and will pass through here.
Sentence will not be passed on Frank
Iron, ex-Citv Court Clerk, convicted of
embezzlement last night, until next week.
The jury recommended him to mercy, and
petitions are beiug circulated for his par
don.
HOPE FOP. CONSUMPTIVE!:
THE GREATEST MEDICAL DISCOV
ERY OF CENTURIES.
A REMEDY' THAT EFFECTS PERMANENT
CL'RE OF CONSUMPTION—THE IN
TENSE EXCITEMENT THE DIS
COVERY' HAS OCCASIONED.
Berlin, November 15.—[Copyright,
1889, by New York Associated Press.]—
Prof. Koch holds supreme sway over pub
lic interest. The publication of the Pro
fessor’s statement yesterday has intensified
the excitemect both here and abroad, and
from every centre of Europe and America
telegrams of inquiry are pouring in on
Koch, Cornell, Bergmann and other med
ical men who are known to be engaged
in treating patients by the
new methods. Koch’s Clinique in
Albrechtstrasse, the Imperial Sanitary In
stitute, Reich’s gesundheitsanit, where
Cornell and other Kochists are at work,
are swamped with letters and personal ap
plications. Many medical men, including
a number of English and American physi
cians, have been studying the process
under Dr. Levy in the small wards of a
private hospital at 26 Prenslauer street,
Strasse, where Prof. Koeh first achieved
striking results with small means. Here,
since October 8, permanent cures of con
sumption have been in progress. Dr.
Levy every morning shows his patients to
visiting physicians and illustrates the pe
culiar features of his method as is visible
in individual eases. Addressing a
group of physicians in his private
laboratory, Dr. Levy said: The remedy
not only attacks the particular places and
groupes of baccilli, but rapidly annihilates
all tubercalos baccilli with which bodies
are infested. We now know that curative
matter acts equally upon all groups. The
first cure is to free the organism from bac
cilli. To attain this end massage at an
early state of the treatment to glands,
joints, etc,, effected by tuberculosis, in or
der to force the baccilli which have in
creased themselves in cypts to the blood
channels, where we can more easily reach
them than were they in those parts
where circulation has little influence.
After massage and injection subdue the
baccilli, all that remains to be done in the
case of tuberculosis of bones is to remove
the dead pieces of bone and restore the
general health of' the patient. In order to
meet the pressure of the cases, another
hospital is about te be established in Alex
ander Platz, where the Hotel Germane is
being transformed into wards having
150 beds for consumptives. Dr. Pfuhl re
ports a strikingly rapid cure of lung tuber
cles. The patient was aged forty-two
years. He has been ill for six years, and
his ease was apparently hopeless. The
first injection was made on November 5.
The usual symptoms followed after the
injection. Increase in fever and sick
ness were followed by a distinct
change in the character of the spectum, and
notable cessation of characteristics of con
sumption. Dr. Pfuhl promises the pa
tient that, though it cannot replace the
parts of the lung that are gone, the reme
dy will insure a healthy retention of the
smallest portion left. The secret of com
position of the lymph has been communi
cated to Professor Bergmann Fraentezel,
Brieger Levey and other intimates of Pro
fessor Koch here; also to Professor Wieg-
art, of Frankfort, Dr. Rost, chief of the
Hamburg hospital, and Professor Nothna-
gel, of the Vienna University. Prof. Noth-
nagel, addressing the students of the Uni
versity, said: “We face one of the greatest
intellectual achievements in the province
of medicine for centuries past. Prof.
Kochs’ discovery has a far wider scope
than Jenner's and is perhaps the greatest
feat in the history of science. What in
spires me with admiration is such actual
discovery as the method of the Bacterio
logical research which must serve as the
basis of all future discoveries in that line.
The present movement is among the most
sublime that humanity has known. Stu
dents shared the fervor of Prof. Noth-
nagel and cheered him to the
echo. Prof. Bellrath holds that
Prof. Koch’s method places it beyond
doubt that the remedy will be found be
fore long for cancer, which is still the
greatest misery in medica. as experience
indicates that carcinomia has baecillic or
igin. Sceptical criticisms of Koch’s dis
ci very came from French medical men.
I Trof. Bronardel Doyen, of the Paris rnedi-
I cal faculty, is reported to have written
Highest of all in Leavening Power.—U. S. Gov’t Report, Aug. 17, 1889.
\
ABSOLUTE!* PURE
a letter in which he advises incredulity re
garding the efficacy of the remedy cntil its
nature is fully known and scientific proof
given of its effetiveness. “Until we
know,” says Prof. Bronardel, “the compo
sition of the remedy, the history of the
experiments on anmals and prolonged
therapeutic effects oa patients no one
ought to pronounce definitely on the
method. M. Pasteur and Prof. Bouchard
are said to be witholding their opinion
for similar reasons. Their attitude, how
ever, does not affect the medical fraternity
outside of France, who have personally
watched the process of cures by the new
system.
Prof. Bergmann lectures tomorrow to
physicians only, on external tuber
culosis and Dr. Fraentezel on
Monday on internal tuberculosis.
Dr. Rest will begin the treatment
of patients by the new method in the
Hamburg wards next week, preparing
lymph in his own laboratory. Prof. Koch
has interested Dr. Weyl, of Frankfort,
with the treatment of cases in the Insti
tute of Hygiene there. Prof. Koch is also
receiving communications from English
and American medical men regard
ing the method of distributing lymph.
Dr. Corner has received the
fourth class decoration of the order
of Red Eagle. This is the first decoration
given in connection with the discovery.
The rush for Prof. Koch’s statement in
creases. A quarter of a million copies
have already been Sold. The publishers
refused 10,000 marks for an early proof.
The sanitary council of Austria will send
two of its members to Berlin to procure
lymph, and will test the treatment in the
Vienna hospitals.
A FIGHT TO THE FINISH.
DEMOCRATS AND REPUBLICANS ON THE
WARPATH.
Chicago, November 15.—The politi
cians have settled down to a fight to the
finish for supremacy in the Illinois Legis
lature. It is to begin with applications
for injunctions to prevent the returning
board from certifying the elections to the
Governor, and will be followed by pro
ceedings in quo warranto to keep the rep-
resentatives-elect from exercising duties of
legislation. Their cases are to be taken to
the House, in an effort to unseat those
who are claimed to be ineligible. Two
cases of this kind have already been un
earthed. The Democrats will make a fight
against seating Collins, of Rock Island,
and the Republicans against seating Geber,
of Peoria.
PROBABLE EXTENSION OF THE BALTI
MORE AND OHIO.
Baltimore, November 15. — United
States Senator Daniel and a number of
business men from Lynchburg had a con
ference today with Presidents, Mayer and
Vice-President Smith and Lord, and Di
rector Blackford, iu regard to the exten
sion of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad,
from Lexington to Lynchburg, a distance
of about fifty miles. The Baltimore and
Ohio officers promised the Virginia dele
gation to look into the matter at an early
day.
in jail under a serious charge.
Griffin, Ga., November 15.—[Special.]
Dave Berry, colored, is in Spalding county-
jail, charged with a serious crime. About,
one month ago he went to the home of
Chancy Redmond and decoyed off a girl,
Mary Brown, fourteen years old, and" she
has not since been heard from. It is
thought Berry, in order to hide one crime,
has committed a greater one, and mur
dered the girl.
PECULIAR PROCEEDINGS.
London, November 14.—The refusal
of Mrs Oshea to make any defense in the
action for divorce brought against hir by
her busbar d. and the failure" of Mr. Par
nell to appear ia court to refute the
I charges made asrainst him in the matter,
have caused an immense sensation. The
utter collapse of the defense amounts to
an acknowledgement of guilt to the court,
and will result in Parnell being condemned
to pay the costs of the divorce proceeding.
A RIDICULOUS LIBEL LAW.
Guthrie, O. T., November 15.—A bill
has been introduced and passed one house
making it a criminal libel for a newspaper
to even insinuate anything against a char
acter whether it is a fact or not.j
A VERY IMPORTANT BILL.
CONGRESS TO BE PETITIONED TO
REPEAL THE STATE BANK TAX.
IN THE SENATE NOTHING DONE — THE
HOUSE OCCUPIES THE TIME IN
SECOND READINGS—THE GOS
SIP OF THE CORRIDORS.
Atlanta, November 15.—[Special.]—
The Senate had no session today, being a
very dignified body and anxious to get
home.
The House had a desultory sort of ses
sion. Most of the time was taken up in
the second reading of bills; a few bills
were read a third time, little or no new
matter coming before them.
Representative Whitfield, of Baldwin,
presented to the House this morning an
invitation from the Mayor and citizens of
Milledgeville to be present in that city on
the 27th at the laying of the corner-stone
of the Girls’ Normal and Industrial Col
lege.
The invitation was accepted.
IN THE INTEREST OF STATE BANKS.
The following resolution, by Mr. Ryals
of Chatham, was adopted:
“Whereas, The statute of the United
States, levying a tax of 10 per cent, on
State banks of issue, which was enacted in
the interest of national banks, gives the.
latter a monopoly in the issue of currency,
which is unjust and injurious to the peo
ple of this country, in that said State
banks, by the exhorbitant tax, are pro
hibited from doing business, and are pro-
vented from issuing a good local currency
which, properly provided by State laws,
would be safe and greatly promotive of the
prosperity of the people; therefore, be it
Resolved, by the House of Representa
tives, the Senate concurring, That our
Senators and Representative in the pres
ent Congress be, and they are hereby in
structed to urge the passage at the ensuing
session of an act repealing the statute im
posing said tax.
Resolved further, That His Excellency,
the Governor, be requested to have each
of our Senators and Representatives in
Congress supplied with a duly certified
copy of the foregoing resolution.
THE SENATOBSHIP.
Everybody is talking senatorship. Men,
women and children; legislators and high
private citizens; high and humble—all
talking about the election of a United
States Senator.
It is well settled that the speeches last
night by Mr. Norwood and Mr. Hartridge,
had no effect upon the votes of the legis
lature.
It is well settled that the lobbyists have
had none; that the delegations for and
against Gordon have had none. It is well
understood that the gallery sentiment is
entirely a different matter from the senti
ment of the f 00-.
It is well settl :d that there are but two
factions, Gordon and Calhoun; that there
is no more room now for Mr. Norwood or
any other dark horse.
It is certain that the Senator will be
John B. Gordon or Pat Calhoun; and now
it is a vexed question of addition and sub
traction.
Both sides are confident.
Both admit the possibility of defeat
and both are working hard for the prize,
both claiming the advantage in the mis
sionary field of uninstructed and unpledged
votes.
Nothing is certain until Tuesday.
Everybody agi ces now that the Senator
will be named by the first ballot.
HARTRIDGE SCORES A HIT.
As an intellectual effort, aside from its
prabtical effect, the speech of Gazaway
Hartridge last night was a master-piece.
It established his reputation, and cer
tainly insures an audience for him when
he speaks again in Atlanta.
It was a sujerb piece of sarcasm and
ridicule, and brilliant beyond the most
sanguine expectations of his friends.
“We ought to have that man in Atlan
ta,” is the comment on the streets today.
Which is the highest encomium an At
lanta audience could give.
general notes.
The largest man in the House, and one
that will represent Southwest Georgia in
higher position hereafter, is “Billy Woot
en,” of Dougherty.
He is peculiarly free from “freshness”
of most young members, and is founding
his reputation upon a substantial basis.
He is a hard worker, conservative, and a
man of weight in the House.
Another young member from Southwest
Georgia, whose record here predicts future
honors and prominence for him, is Price
Gilbert, of Muscogee. He is the author
of some of the most important measures
before this Legislature.
Charlie Ozburn, the white man who
killed a merchant named Bradly last May,
was sentenced to hang this morning. He
was found guilty of murder two or three
weeks ago, and Judge Clark pronounced
the sentence this morning.
It is to be a private execution.
The date is January 9.
