New York, March 17. (Special)
That electricity may be BUci-cSomily
employed to destroy disease germs
within tho body was asaerted and ill
ustrated at a meeting of the Health
and Longevity Club here this week
by Dr. Samuel T. Tracty. a New York
physician who has devoted years of
study to the use of electrical currents
in staying the progress of old age
and opposing disease. Tho method
by which tho harmful bacteria are
rendered Innocuous within the body
la known as electrical diathermy. By
passing currents through the body In
opposite directions any desired degree
of heat can be created at the point
where they Intersect- without any in
crease of temperature on the surface
and in fact without the patient feel
ing U at all. In this way the germs
of tuberculosis, pneumonia, typhoid
or other bacterial diseases can be
sterilized and rendered harmless. It
Is said that in a test made of 75
cases of tuberculosis the bacilli was
effectlvtly-Mlestroyed In every case.
This method of treatment has been
for some time recognized value In
and other affections that usually ac
company old age, but the Idea of
cooking dangerous germs to death
within the body by this means is a
novel though apparently practicable
one .
In addition to the many forms
of atate regulation already In force
here, New York Is about to follow
the example of Oregon in providing
for the regulation of fraternal In
si ranee organizations. There have
been several cases In whkh improper
or Inefficient management of such or
ganlzatlons has Jeopardized the se
curity of the person Insured In them.
As a result Insurance Superintendent
Hotchkiss Introduced a bill In the
State Legislature placing these fra
ternal societies under the Jurisdiction
of the Btate department. That bill
Is now to be withdrawn, only in order
to give place to a similar measure
which was adopted by the insurance
commissioners of the various states
at their annual convention here a few
months ago. It is proposed to have
this bill adopted by the legislatures
of all the states so that there may
be uniform legislation throughout the
country for the safeguarding of the
$20,000,000,000 of .insurance carried by
these organizations. As soon as th
bill can be redrafted in accordance
with the agreement arrived at It will
be reported by the committ-es of the
legislature that now have It in charge
with a recommendation for favorable
action. It will undoubtedly pass,
making New York one of the first
stat 8 to adopt this legislation which
ts expected to become the uniform law
of all the Btates on this subject.
While instances of rapid advance
ment In real state values are not
difficult to find, it Is doubtful the
record of a small corner lot on the
west side of this city has ever been
excelled outside of a mining or oil
camp In a similar length of time.
The lot In question Is located at
Seventh Avenue and Thirteenth St.,
and measures only 80 by 39 feet Ten
years ago It was held at $30,000 which
was considered a good price. Then
the Pennsylvania railroad decided to
locate its new terminal on Seventh
Avenue wit hits nfctin entrance di
rectly opposite the lot In question,
which Is occupied by an old four
story building. By 1903 the property
had Jumped In value to $168,000. In
1907 It was sold once more, this time
for $400,000. Since then It has chang
ed hands several times, always at
a rapidly Increasing figure, until at
its last transfer, shortly before the
first of the month, Us value had
mounted to more than $700,000.
It haa been rented at an annual
figure of $40,000 per year. Thus in
ten years the property haa multi
plied In value nearly twenty-flve
times or at the rate of two and a
half times each year. Several com
fortable fortunes have been taken out
of this unattractive old building and
it is possible that oth:rs may be
drawn out of It in the future.
