Pasco obtained the floor and the bill The Silver Bill Goes to the Committee on Coinage. Washington, Jan. 13. The silver bill has been under the rules of the house referred to the committee on coinage, weights and measures, of which Wick- ham of Ohio ia chairman. The silver men in the house have been actively en- in the intermt m?ml in misainnarr of free coinage. They are sanguine of ultimate success and are certain the bill cannot be kept indefinitely in the committee, and that within a reasonable time the coinage committee will order a report made, notwithstanding all efforts to prevent the bill having an opportunity for consideration, Bartine of Nevada, one of the outspoken republican advocates of free coinage on the committee, said today he was confident of getting the silver bill back to the house, lie thought the sentiment towards silver had grown much more favorable than it was last session and that a good many republicans were not inclined to underrate the influence silvor had on the recent elections. The Star says: From the general tenor of conversation among the silver majority it was apparent that they regarded their victory as merely due to the force of an irresistible popular demand which they believe will make itself felt in a sim:r manner in the house and ultimately in the executive mansion. More cautious and conservative friends of silver are inclined to think the action of yesterday will prove to have been a fortunate thing for the country. It may serve to satisfy the strong craving of the west and south for financial relief, and thus prevent recourse to more extreme measures in the way of schemes, fiat money, etc., which are meditated so seriously by the Farmers' alliance and rural political agitators in the interior of the country. The defeated party takes the matter calmly. 'sub-treasur- y The Sew Silver Bill. Washington, Jan. 15. The free coinage bill passed by the senate last night is substantially as follows: An act to provide for the free coinage of gold and silver bullion and other purposes. That from and after the date of the passage of this act the unit value in the United States shall be one dollar, and the same may be coined of four hundred and twelve and one-hagrains, standard und eight-tenth- s silver, or twenty-liv- e grains standard gold, and said coins shall be legal tender for all debts, public and private. That hereafter any owner of silver or gold bullion may de posit the same at any mint in the United States, to be formed intostandard dollars or bars for his benefit, and without charge; but it shall be lawful to refuse any deposit of less value than f 100, or any bullion so base as to be unsuitable for operations in the mint. Section 2. The provision of Bection three of "an act to authorize the coinage of the standard silver dollar and to re store its legal tender character, which became a law February 28th, 1878, is hereby made applicable to coinage in this act provided lor.

Professor Koch's reissued as to the ingredients port today, which compose his lymph, says it coo sists of glycerine and extracts from pure cultivation of tubercle bacilli. Professor Koch says: "So far as I have been able to review the statements published and communications received by letter, my indications are fully and completely oonCriuod. The general con census of opinion is that the remedy has a specific effect upon the tubercular tissues and is therefore applicable as a very delicate and sure agent for discovering latent and diagnosing doubtful tuberculosis processes. Regarding the curative effects of the remedy, just reports agree that dispite the oompurativeiy short duration ol its application, many patients have shown more or les pronounced improvement It has been confirmed in not a few cases, even a cure has been established. Standing quite by itself is the asser tion that the remedy may not only be dangerous in cases which have advanced too far, a fact which may forthwith bo conceded, but also that it actually promotes tuberculosis, the process being. therefore, injurious. During the last six weeks, 1 myself had an opportunity to bring together further experiences touching the curative effects and diagnostic application of the remedy. In the cases of about 150 sufferers from tuberculosis the roost varied of types in this city, and in the Moabin hospital, I can only say that everything I have lately seen coincides with my previous observation. Now, after sufficient confirmation, tho importance of the remedy having been proved, my next task is to extend my study of the remedy beyond the field where it has hitherto been applied, and, if possible, to apply tho principle underlying the discovery to other dis eases." Then follows a lengthy description on the way he arrived at the discovery of the remedy. Ha says: "It a healthy Guinea pig be inoculated with the pure cultivation (Gorman Kultur) of Tubercle Bacilli the wound caused by the inoculation mostly closes ovw with aj)tlcky matter and appears In itn ruav nliys to lieal. Alter ten or fourteen days a bard nodule presents itself, which soon breaking from an ulcorating sore, continues until t he animal dies. Quito a different condition of things occurs when the Uumea pig is already suffering from tuberculosis and is in In such an animal, the small oculated. indentation assumes same sticky cover ing at the beginning, but no nodule forms. ' On the day following or second day after the inoculation, the place where the lymph was injected becomes hard and assumes a darker color, which is not confined to the inoculation spot, but spreads, in a few days it becomes man. ifest that the skin thus changed is necrotic, finally falling off, leaving a flat ulceration, which usually heals rapidly and permanently. This effect is not exclusively produced with living tubercular bacilli, Out is also observed with the dead bacilli, the result being the same whether the bacilli is killed bv a somewhat prolonged applica tion of temperature on boiling heat or or certain chemicals. by means Tuberculosis in guinea pigs are killed by an injection of a very small quantity of diluted cultivations. In hours fact within six to forty-eigaccording to the strength of the dose. Injection which is not sufficient to pro duce death of the animal may cause ex tended necrosis to the skin in the vicinity of the' place of injection. If the dilution is still further pursuod the ani- mals inoculated remain alive "and a noticeable improvement in their condi tion soon supervenes. If the injections are continued at intervals of from one to two days, the ulcerated inoculation wound becomes smaller and finally scars over. The size of the swollen lymphatic glands is reduced, the body becomes better nourished and the morbid process ceases unless it has gone too far, in which case the animal perishes from exhaus tion. By this means the basis of tho curative process against the tubercu loeis is established. The remedy which is used in the new treatment consists of glycerine and the extract derived from the pure cultivation of tubercle bacilli. Into the simple extract there naturally passes from tubercular bacilli, besides the effective substances, all other matter soluble in 5c per cent of glycerine. Consequently it contained a certain quantity of mineral substances and other unknown extractive matter. The effective substance is insoluble in a solute alcohol. It can be precipated by it, though not indeed in pure condition but still with other extractive matters which is likewise insoluble in alcohol The coloring matter may also be removed, rendering it possible to obtain from the extract the colorless dry substance containing the effective principal in much more concentrated form tiian that in the original glycerine solution. For application in practice this purification glycerine extract offers no advantage, because the substances so eliminated are unessential for human organism. The process of purification would make the cost of the remedy unnecessarily high. Against the practical application of such dilutions of dead tubercle bacilli, there presented itself the fact that tubercle bacilli is not absorbed at the in-- 1 13. - corn-Din- TO XABBY A SIOUX.

Mr. Root the directors of the World's Offden Panorama. The reporter was passing The Fair yesterday and took the opportunity of looking at the Panorama placed there by the National Panorama Company. Tho crowd around prevented him from taking more than a cursory glance, al though the views he did manage to see were very fine. The main object of the company is to exhibit the fine one horse power machine the panorama is driven by, and which can be seen in a glass co.e underneath. The mechine has two motive powers which it relies on, one be ing a weight and the other a spring, so that in case of one getting out of order the other is sufficient to do the work while its associate power is getting re paired. The speed is regulated by a beautifully designed and simple gover nor. For a small motive power to drive any machinery this seems to be the de serable thing. What Does This Mean?

LOTTERY A SCHEME G&antv Scheme CJf EARTHED. Ce fore LouitDa Y oka the Pales. 13- .- Edward New York, Jan. IL Horner, a banker at 6$ Wall street, has been arrested for sending lottery circulars through the mail. The arrest was made on the strength of indictments found against the prisoner in Springfield. I1L Inspector Conrad, upeaking of the case, Mid Horner ia the chief agent in this city of various indemnity bonds, of Austria, Hungary and other foreign countries which bonds, he says, are nothing more or less than lottery policy certificates. The extent in which they are dealt in this country, Conrad says, exceeds the Louisiana lottery business in the busiest times, and he pronounces it a gigantic swindle. Over a hundred million dollars are collected bonds, yearly for these it is said, and the whole of it ia controlled by Horner. The latter, according to the statement of the inspector, acknowledged that he is interested in various schemes to the amount of IVK,- 0U0 and that his yearly expenses exceed 115,000. He maintains branch establishments in Boston, St. Louis, Chicago, Milwaukee, Denver, Birmingham, Ala., San Francisco, St Joseph, Mo Mexico and South America. Before the commissioner, the counsel. for Horner said his client did not come within the federal statutes upon which the arrest is made. He had written the attorney general for his opinion and had received a reply that his case had been submitted to Chief Post Olliee Inspector Rath bone.

Today the talk was Btill all fight The general verdict briefly summed up is that Fitzsimmons is a wonder and class all by himself, and that Jack Dempeey is tho cleverest and gamiest man of his inches who bos ever entered the ring. Fitzsimmons tonight said: "The fight'was not a hard one, I did not even get thoroughly warmed up. I did rot work any harder than when punishing the bag. I told him I was strong enough to last all night and ho had better give up. But he would not, and I had to keep it up much to my regret His gameness cost me ?5,000 which had been promised me in case I won in ten rounds." Fitzsimmons received congratulatory telegrams from all over the country, and was glad to find he had friends. The Olympic club today poid over to him 811.000 as his share of tho purse money. and many people who had won money on him also made him presents which ag gregated $7,230 more, "How about the proposed fight with, Corbett," was asked. Jimmy Carroll, hie manager, replied: "There is nothing in that. Fitzsimmons is a middleweight and there is no use for him to go after heavyweights. He might niako the same mistake as Djmpsey and be sorry. It is not good policy for a man to go outside of his class." "Corbett is too clever," said Fitasim- mons. "and too big. Middlewcights are good enough for me." Parson Davies, of Chicago, who starred Peter Jackson, had a talk with Fitzsimmons and Carroll about a contract for a tour to cover America and England and to last six months, provided the consent of the California Athletic club, which has engagements with both men, is obtained. The men are well liked by the directors and those who were in the city promised to call a meeting as soon as they reached nome.
