story, as circulated In diplomatic cir

The marquis came here only recent
ly. He presented his credentials to King
Victor Emmanuel. Then, In accordance
with custom here, he sent a secretary
to ach of the other embassies to -inquire
when he might make his official
calls upon them. The ambassadors all
replied promptly with one exception-
Ambassador irishman.

marquis called at all tbe other em

early for official visiting in Rome.
Nevertheless, tlje marquis called. The
usual compliments and commonplaces
were exchanged. Then the marquis re
marked:
"I began to fear I would not be per

Ob, ' replied Ambassador Lelshman
with a bored air this, at least, is the

San- Francisco, x April T. The Em
manuel movement, a mixture of religion,
medicine and suggestion, by which
was hoped -to cure nervous diseases, has
proved a failure at St' Luke's hospital.
according io the hospital authorities.
; Aftef experimenting a year .with; the
new cure, which has swept through the
country, Bishop Nichols of the episco
pal church decided that it would . not
prove, successful, with a result , that Dr.

While It Is freely admitted that the
cult's claims did7 not materialise, the
doctrine propounded by its leaders is
oy no means-denied. The sole assertion
Is that the movement 'proved a failure
at St. Luke's. .- -
leaders of the Emmanuel movement
declare that the nonsuccess of the move.
ment in the hospital was because the
patients were surrounded by depressing
signs of Illness and that the constant
suggestions' of .misery and. the grave
were, not. good for the 'nerves of those
woo were treated mere. , , ,
Dr. A. A. Morrison of Trinity, who' Is
the leading exponent in - Portland of
mental therapeutics, expressed no sur
prise when ' told of its failure In San
Francisco.. In fact Dr. Morrison, says
that he had heard that the movement
had not proved a success at St. Duke's,
the Episcopal hospital in San Francisco.
"Because the effort to help the nerv
ous and otherwise ill people by means
of . what Is known as the Emmanuel
treatment was not a , success in Ban
Francisco Is no argument that it has
not accomplished wonderful results else
where," declared Dr. Morrison.
'It is. well known that it has failed
in many places, and it la equally well
known that it has proved a conspicuous
success elsewhere.-; - -
'Of course a hospital is not the place
to treat the nervous and mentally de
pressed, and it ought never to have been
attempted with such, surroundings.
"The personal equation is a large item
In this work. It is not to be expected
that work of that character can be car
ried on With success by any and every,
body. .

rison, "that the foundation of psychic
