THE MORNING OREGOXIAN, TUESDAY, JULY 21, 1908. 11 DR. BMn REFUTES MANY FALLACIES Local Physician Makes Nota ble Contribution to Med ical Knowledge. HIS WORK ON OXALURIA In Address Before International Congress Shows That Dietary Treatment for Nervous Dis eases Should Be Modified. Of signal scientific importance in the field of medical re&oarcb. Is the Inter eating announcement of one of Portland's leading physicians, that vegetables and frulte which abound with such riotous profusion In this state need not be ex cluded from the diet of patients suffering from nervous ailments. On the other hand such palatable articles of diet may be prescribed with full assurance of their salutary effects. The disclosures are made by Dr. Gus tav Baar, of this city, who was one of the three American specialists who at tended the recent International Medical Congress at Vienna. At that momentous conference, Dr. Baar gave the assembled delegates the benefit of his exhaustive and Independent researones into the mys teries ot "Oxalurla," over the nature of which there has been much-to-do since his arrival In New York. Dr. Baar, who has been abroad for the past four months, returned home yester day, accompanied by his sister. Miss Beatrice Baar, of Vienna, who contem plates an extended visit to Portland. The work of Dr. Baar at the Congress and his pains-taking preliminary investiga tions were commented upon by the noted savants present both for their profundity and their exceptional value as original contributions to medical scientific knowl edge. HIb discoveries and disclosures were strongly indorsed by the Congress, with the result that there will probably be a general revision of text-book trea tises on the subject. New York Interview. Upon Dr. Baar's arrival in New York last week, he was quoted as an nouncing that at the recent medical congress a new disease had been dis covered known as "oxalurla." Since the receipt of this dispatch in Portland, a considerable tempest has been arousetf among the local practitioners because of Dr. Baar's remarks concerning the new malady, thereby causing him no little annoyance. In discussing the subject yesterday, Dr. Baar said: Too Much Notoriety. "Not being a very assiduous reader of daily papers, I was more than sur prised to find myself, on my return from Europe, the center of an unde slred notoriety. While I am opposed, on general principles as well as on principles of medical ethics, to seeing any doctor publish his scientific efforts In a layman's dally paper, I am com-' pelled this time, for more reasons than one. to set things right which have been distorted by a reporter. "The excretion of oxalic acid in an amount exceeding one-third of one grain to one quart of water Is abnor mal and Is called oxalurla, If it con tinues for a long time. It is a well defined disease. It was first diagnosed by Professor Cantnl, of Italy, In 1872. Of course, the medical profession knew before that date that oxalic acid ap peared In the secretions of the kidneys occasionally. This latter condition Is, however, of no importance in the health of the Individual, and Is but a symptom of various diseases. It needs no further treatment. If, however, ox alic acid continues to be excreted in abnormal amounts. It must be put on the same level of a metbollc disease? as, for Instance, diabetes Is; with the one difference only, that oxalurla "par excellence" Is a disease which can be easily and promptly cured. The wise questioner on the editorial page of The Oregonlan of July IS was much luckier than I was in finding so many men who knew all about It. Bibliography Is Extensive. "The literature on this subject is very extensive, as is shown by the 35 pages of my book on oxalurla, which are de voted to merely mentioning the names of the authors of the treatises on this par ticular subject. The paper I read be fore the Medical Congress In Vienna was devoted mainly to tearing down many fallacies copied from one standard text book into another and causing so many erroneous views on the subject among the medical fraternity. Therein lies the merit of the work which I have based upon over 3000 examinations made for this purpose. While heretofore, for in stance, oxalurla was thought but a symptom of neurasthenia. I found that these two are entirely different diseases, which, however, have many symptoms In common. Many cases coming to me with a diagnosis of nervous exhaustion, 'nervous prostration' or 'nervous break down' proved to be oxaluria, which, if vigorous muscular exercise were tried, would recover rapidly, while the "Test cure' applied before has proved a failure. This is only one practical point of my work done In that line. Another fact I may mention is that while heretofore most of the standard text-books pre scribed a certain diet for oxaluria. for bidding the patient to eat peaches, rasp berries, cranberries, rhubarb, tomatoes and many other things containing oxalic acid. I proved that people of Oregon who certainly consume a vast amount of these food products, do not show more than half the. percentage of oxaluria cases reported from European hospitals on people who live on the hospital food there, which is certainly not very lux urious. This point alone proves beyond any doubt that we doctors have no right whatever to deprive our oxalurla patients of such food as mentioned above. Many Fallacies Exploded. "I could mention many other statements of the standard medical books which were proved by my work to be fallacious, like the supposed interdependence of diabetes and oxaluria, of Intestinal troubles and oxalurla. etc.. but I do not wish to arouse In the anxious reader's mind the same feeling my chauffeur arouses In me when ever he attempts to use big technical terms In connection with my machine, to wit. disgust. Suffice it to console every body who suffers from oxaluria to state that the cure is a most simple one and can most positively be obtained within a very short time. Any of my worthy medlcai brethren who chooses to attack me on tne basis of some distorted med ical statement, produced by some Ignorant penman, I must refer them to the trans actions of the Medical Congress at Vienna, appearing at Bergmann's, Welsbaden, Germany, or to my book on oxaluria. appearing at Vienna and Berlin, at Urban and Schwartzenberg." . Speaking of his trip abroad. Dr. Baar said: AVhere America Leads. "I am ready to believe that America leads the world. While I was at Frankfort-on-the-Main the man who sold me Frankfurter sausages, when I asked him if they were genuine, replied with a wink, 'Tney are made from Chi cago meat.' I went to a shoe dealer there to get a pair of good shoes. The first I was offered were of American make. I visited a tailor shop vto pur chase a new suit of clothes and the proprietor showed me the latest styles, explaining that they were "the Ameri can cut.' When I went to a concert to listen to some muBlc one cool even ing I felt quite at home, fdr I heard one of the popular American airs there. When I was asked what caused the re cent panic. I replied that I knew of none. When my questioner pointed out the fact that so many laborers are re turning to Europe, I promptly said to him "We Americans are not going to support the beggars of Europe. We don't want them to send their money home to their poor relatives for them to pay the taxes to support European governments. Keep your poor at home; send us Tarmers only." "America is bound to excel Europe In everything, as she has at the pres ent time obtained the lead in most every line, except perhaps in the ap plied arts and music. These two de partments are bound to come within the next decade. "At the recent congress in Vienna there were but three Americans present Osier of Oxford, Pratt of Boston, and myself. At the conclusion of the con gress I visited the , hospitals of Mu nich, Halle and Berlin for the purpose of taking up special clinics." y OFFERS DEFENSE MOXTAVILIiA POLICEMAN DE NIES CHARGES. Committee Refuses to Hear Attack on Reputation of Two Young Women Accusers. Policeman Matt P. Murphy, against whom several men, women and children living at Montavilla made a general complaint of drunkenness and conduct unbecoming an officer, put In his de fense last night during a two-hour ses sion of the police committee of the Executive Board. At the conclusion of the hearing the accused officer at tempted to put in testimony tending to show improper conduct on the part of two young women who made seri ous sworn statements against Murphy, but the committeemen refused to lis ten to the evidence, on the ground that, if anything was wrong at the home of the witnesses, it should have been reported to headquarters previ ously by the patrolmen on the beat. The case was taken under advisement after Lawyer Isaac Swett, for the de fendant, made his argument. It is probable a report on the matter will be made to the Executive Board, which meets next Friday afternoon. Several witnesses, all of Montavilla, swore that they had known Policeman Murphy since he was detailed on the Montavilla district on the first relief, and that they had never seen him un der the influence of liquor. Among these were William Deveny, who said that the accused officer had been asked by the Board of Trade to curb speed maniacs on the Baseline Road, and said that the officer's activity in this re spect may have had something to do with the charges. J. s. Sloane, C. T. Evans, H. S. Chessman, W. E. Marshall, E. B. Morelock and Policeman M. F. Sloan, swore that Murphy had been efficient and sober while on duty in the district. Mrs. A. Oilman, called by the prose cution, swore that on the night of July 7. during a social session of the Arti Bans. Policeman Murphy called and that he had been drinking. A. D. Hill testi fied that he had seen Murphy go to the home of C. T. Evans on several occa sions and remain probably an hour at a time. Mr. Evans took the stand long enough to explain that the officer was there on official business and was wait ing for Mr. Evans, and that the officer never had a drink of liquor at the home of the witness. When the defense sought to secure from Policeman Robson, who patrols the Montavilla district on the shift following Murphy, a statement tending to involve the reputation of the two young women 'who made a portion of the charges, the committeemen Thom as G. Greene and R. L. Sabln refused to admit it as evidence, and the case closed with the argument by Mr. Swett. BLESSED BY ARCHBISHOP Banner of Holy Name Society, Sa cred Heart Parish, Consecrated. The blessing of a magnificent banner. the property of the Holy Name Society. of the Sacred Heart parish, was made an Imposing event last Sunday morning at 10:30. St Joseph's Verein Society. to the number of 150. accompanied by their band, and a large delegation of the Knights of Columbus, escorted his grace. Archbishop Christie, from the parochial residence to the Sacred Heart Church, and in the presence of one of the largest audiences, his grace blessed the banner with appropriate ceremonies. The zealous and Indefatigable pastor, the Rev. Father Gregory Roble, celebrated mass and the archbishop gave the people the pap Diessing. After mass his grace complimented the Holy Name Society upon the banner. emblematic of the object of the organi zation, ana preached an eloouent and impressive sermon on the duties of the Catholic laity. Immediately after the service the members of the different or ders present congregated at the invita tion of the pastor in the hall, where re freshments were served. The afternoon waB spent In a very enjoyable manner. Father Gregory was In the chair and in Introducing Very Rev. Prior Adelm. referred to him as one of the pioneer priests of the Pacific North west and one who has done yeoman service In the cause of Christ and human ity. The Rev. Prior. In a masterful speech, gave the men sound, fatherly advice, and dwelt at length on the ob jects of the society. Rev. Father Schmidt, of the Dominican Church, gave an eloquent address In German. The orator of the day was W. A. Mun ly. and In forceful and logical manner he took up the theme of the church, its work and the benefits derived by organi zation of the laity. The oration was well received by the large audience. Remarks on fraternal society work were made on behalf of the Knights of Columbus by B. C. Jones. Recitations by Messrs. Quinlan and Malley were enjoyed and the St. Josephs band rendered several selections during the afternoon. The banner is the handiwork of the Benedictine Sisters, of Mount Angel. It is richly gilded and is a work of art. A school teacher after spending- 43 stren uous moments explaining- the mysteries of phyftlolog-y to the primary claas sounded their intelligent attention by asking the definition of "vertebrae." A small and anx lou, boy on the back seat arose and deliv ered the following: -The. vertebrae is a lonr. wavy bone. My head sits on one end of It and I alt on the other." Pathfinder. REPORT FAIR CROP Cereal News From the Interior Is Reassuring. HURT BY HOT WEATHER Wheat Yield In Counties Along Co lumbia River Will Not Be as Large as Last Year Other Sections Heard From. Crop news from the interior received by the railroads yesterday were some what reassuring, although they show that the wheat yield of the Oregon counties lying along the Columbia River will be unusually short. How ever, reports from the Walla Walla country and the Palouse district as a whole show an average crop. Continued hot and dry weather In Wasco County has shriveled the grain, according to the railroad reports, and the grade will be reduced on this account- The harvest has been begun and no further damage to Fall grain is reported. Extreme hot weather which began in Sherman County last Saturday has caused considerable damage to late grain. The indications now are that the crop will be about 60 per cent of last year's yield. Fall grain is ready to harvest In Gilliam County, and will grade No. 1. Spring wheat, which was given up for lost last week, will make good hay, and in some cases, fair grain. Walla Walla wheat is in fair condi tion. A crop estimated at 15 per cent less than last year's Is expected. Crops of all kinds are in good condi tion in the Powder River Valley dis trict of Eastern Oregon. Throughout the Palouse country the cool weather of the past week has increased the yield of grain approximately 10 per cent. The whole Palouse crop is now placed at approximately 75 per cent of list year. RAILROAD TO AID STATE Trackwalkers and Section Hands to Guard Minnesota Forests. CHICAGO, July 20. (Special.) The operating department of the North western Railroad will try to assist the State of Wisconsin in the creation and preservation of a great forest reserve in the northern part of that state. Of ficials of the company have consented to hold two conferences with the State Forestry officials early in August at Antigo and Ironwood. E. M. Griffith, Chief Forester of the State, started the movement, and the railroad officials are In hearty sympa thy with the Idea. In brief, the pur pose Is to create an auxiliary force of forest guards, from the track-walkers of the Northwestern. The Forestry Chief hopes to have the track-walkers and section foremen made special po lice, with authority to assist In the preservation of timber from Ares and other dangers. Tho plan may be adopt ed In other states, especially in the Pacific Northwest, where millions of dollars worth of timber are destroyed by Are every year. CUT RATES ON THE SOUND Fare From Seattle to Vancouver Re duced to 25 Cents. SEATTLE, Wash.,' July 20. (Spe cial.) The Canadian Pacific today an nounced a 25-eent fare from Seattle to Vancouver, the latest move in the bit ter rate war which has been in prog ress between that concern and the Puget Sound Navigation Company. The Canadian Pacific has for some time had a big sign on its wharf, reading: "Victoria, 25 cents; Vancou ver ." The blank space haa aroused considerable curiosity, which was ap peased today when it was filled in with the figures. "25 cents." The rate to Victoria has been 25 cents for some little time. The rival company will not meet the cut, but will maintain its rate at $1. It Is pre dicted that the rate fight will last through the Winter, as there is no dis position on either side to give in. HARVEST ON IN PALOUSE Winter Wheat Near Garfield Will Go 4 5 Bushels to Acre.

Winter wheat is looking good and will make an average yield of 35 bushels an acre. Many fields will make 45 bushels an acre. On account of the continued dry weather. Spring wheat win not average more than 20 bush els, although many fields will make 25 and even 30 an acre. The yield of oats will be cut down not more than 25 per cent."
