The Now Movement to Inoeulato for Consumption - New York's Scien tists ami Tlielr Opinions or the Disease and Its Treatment. Medical nialtcrs aro not generally considered specially entertaining or in teresting topics for tho general public, but when there conies to the top a ques tion whether medical or otherwise that directly appeals to tho feiulerest susceptibilities of about threo millions of fellow-citizens who can read it would seem entitled to something more than a mere passing mention. Here is a case in point. A recent cablegram states that a new movement has been on foot in France with a view to practically demonstrating whether consumption can be cured or prevented by inocula tion. And this is a subject of much widespread interest from tho fact that one-seventh of the whole population of -.North America bocauso it is much more prevalent in the temperate zone are now actually sufferers from this disease and are doomed to die from U In New York city taking the vital statistics for the year 1883 out of U32, tho total number of deaths 2,847 males and L'.MII females died from phthisic or consumption, the great majority of them in the very primo of life that is to say, between the ages of 20 and 35. This means for the whole Country nearly one-third of tho whole adult population. Statistics show that moro than 200,000- of whom one-half will die within the year aro now known to be sufferers from this disease, to say nothing of the vast number whoso ailments aro wrongfully or will fully attributed to oilier causes. For the medical practitioner, who gains one third of his income from this practice alone, is invariably a gentleman, and however conscientious in his duty, shrinks from dealing tho deathblow to every hopo by informing his patient that consumption has marked him for his own. With all this immense prac tice and the knowledge and oxperienco that must bo gained in it tho faculty ad mits, in effect, t hat no remedy lias yet been discovered which will materially check tho progress of tho disease, and therefore, if M. Vernon'iPs experiments should prove that inoculation is a suc cessful mode of treatment, n popular monument many times grander than the statue of liberty ought to be erected to his honor. Sydenham, a medical expert of two hundred years ago, writes: "When this disease is confirmed it for the most part proves incurable." This state ment, however, although generally ac cepted, by no means arrested scienlilic investigation; on tho contrary, it was (hereby stimulated, and nearly every medical publicist siuco then has had somo opinion to express upon it. Of course, thero aro various forms of con sumption. The most fatal and most important, because it is hereditary, being called tubercular. Also many of tlio other forms of disease aro liable to and nearly always do, in tho long run, become tubercular. Tlio tuberclo itself is a vcgctablo deposit on tho lungs, which was discovered in 1803 by Haylc, and Lacnnae'a introduction of. tlio practice of auscultation and tho use of the stethoscope, a few years later creat ed a tubercular public opinion that the little molo was tho solo causo of the disoase. Prof. Vircliow's discoveries in cellular pathology throw doubt upon this, but most praclioners still hold to tlio tubercular idea, and tho discaso of that name is what wo havo to inquire into. And hero comes in Koch, who, nmong his other valuable discoveries, finds that tlio tuberclo is a germ which ho calls tubercular bacilli, and this new movement in Franco is to find out a way to "attenuate" or mako thin the virus of this germ so that it can be used for tho prevention of consumption in tho samo as vaccine is so successfully applied to tho prevention of small-pox. Now, what aro tho chances that M. Ycmenil's plan of inoculation will pro o a success? To calculate this one must take tho opinions of tho best au thority on tlio subject, and nlso sco if tho germ himself has anything to say. Let us interview tho germ first. When not riding tho breeze in search of vic tims ho may bo found at his private lodgings in the pathological laboratory of the Collego of Physicians anil Sur geons, corner of Twenty-third street and Fourth avenue. Thoro Dr. Prud- den, tho director, keeps him anil his congonors in cages nnd feeds thorn on beef tea, oysters, blood pudding, and other stimulative luxurios. After his almost insatiable appotito is appeased, and ho can bo handled without danger, Dr. Prudden takes him out and pets him, and coaxes him to sit under the microscope, that tho visitor mav have 0Q1 look t , j WJ,h maffmfv. V. , : 'nR power of 800 diameter that Is to -gay, increasing his size bv about ten thousand timos-ono perceives n little ' rod about tho forty-second part of an inch in le.igth, and yon aro informed that at New Year's, when they march in single tile to salute their president, a lino of two thousand would about cover the space of a pin's point. That's getting him down to dots, isn't it? Prof. Chandler told the plumbers that in the smallest dewdrop Mr. Germ would have as much room to swim in as a whale in New York harbor. It is as hard lo properly estimate such inlinilesinialisni as it is to grasp the illimitable distances of celestial space. And yet what a mighty mite it is! From eighty million to one hundred million of the earth's human inhabitants to say nothing of the animals, aro doomed to death by him. Hy him and his family. And, by tho way, what a funny way lie lias of raising a family. As lie grows in age he simply lengthens. When be has doubled his length lie shakes tlio latter half oil' and says: "tin and grow a son oi your own. lie does this every twenty minutes, so if you have any mind for figures you can easily calcu late how long it would take him to sink a ship. The late Dr. Austin Flint, one of tho leading experts on tho subject of con sumption, believed in this germ theory, and so docs Dr. Zemansky, his follower in tho chair at liellevuo hospital, who has been lecturing on tho heart and lungs for ten years. He says that tho tubercular germs aro invariably found in tlio sputa or expectorated matter of tho se who inherit consumption, and in those cases where the history of tlio family is known, vaccination might prove a preventive. But the discaso is not like hydrophobia, which can be traced to a distinct cause and a distinct period. Mr. Verneuil may possibly and Dr. Zemansky emphasizes the last two words succeed, and thus prevent whole families from dying out; but phy sicians must wait patiently for tho ex periments before expressing an opinion. Most of the leading practitioners ex pressed a similar reluctance, and they also seemed adverse to speaking of tho present mode of treating tho disease. "Oil, we generally get them away from the city," says one. "What tliey necd is to breathe a clear, rarefied at mosphere. Tho Adirondack's suit some; some they don't. Crowds go to Aiken, S. C it is dry there and to Las Vegas, Colorado, and Florida. Claude Bernard discovered that sulphur, when absorbed, is excreted through the re spiratory mucous membrane, and that doctrine has led thousands to drink the sulphur water of tlio Kaux Bonnes, in tho Pyrenees, and tho less wealthy a similar water which is found at Re.l Sulphur Snriinrs. W. Vn." V('K. KI1VK Hr. mifmil-i "All t... I 4 ii ' 3 can prescribe is :. general tonic treat r j - - - '""imi 4iit ment. We try to force the health nit in ,.J. ,w i certain standard, and as Jong as wo can keep it thero the discaso can not advance." "Precisely," observed Dr. .Tanoway, when tlio above was quoted to him. "Keep tho patient healthy and ho eats up the germs, and thus prevents them eating him up." What a grim little joke! Yet it will bb sullicient to produco many a gleoful cough or coughing laugh -tho con sumptive always laughs at his cough and coughs when ho laughs. Tlio members of the Aikon Death club, as they sit and pool their tissues on tho next fatality, will take in bets that tlio little joker germ won't cover their right bower this deal. For at Aiken they "pursue with eagerness the phantoms of hope" and back their fancy on their neighbors' early demise at ono and tho samo time. In Florida, as they lazily bask in tho sunshine, they will try to fathom the mystery as to whether saiil germ is of the naturo of a caterpillar or a cab bage. The form of salutation at Royat and Kaux Bonnes will bo "Comment va voire petit ciouT1 and at Rod Sulphur, as tlio coughing stand asido to let tlio coflin pass, the invitation to drink will bo: "Let's water the plants." They aro brimful of morbid jokes, theso sad consumptives, tho telling of which al ways reminds ono of tho boy In tho dark, who whistles to show ho is not afraid. Thero aro somo authorities who do not accept this germ theory in its en tirety. Dr. J. R. Learning, for instanco, who has published several monograms on phthisis, docs not think tho theory as yet well proven. Tho germs may bo present, and invariably aro, in cases of tubercular consumption, but these aro not in his opinion tho causo. Gen erally, however, the germ theory is ac cepted, and, presuming it to bo correct, what uro tho chances of making the virus practical for inoculation? Prof. Herman M. Biggs, who has probably givon raoro careful study to the gorm life than nnyono in the country, modest ly gi- es Ids opinion that thoy will not be i ' ) to produco this virus, and that if tl. do succeed thero is no probabil ity heir being ablo to prevent con st: . n by Inoculation. "Ion must first settle this point," says he, "that :ine attack gives insusceptibility. If vou do not get that there is no possibil ity of your getting a preventive vaccine, in all of the ordinary contagious dis eases you tlo get this insusceptibility .ifter a fust attack, but in consumption it is not known at all. On the con tiary, there are well-known cases where persons havo been cured of tu!'Oroulois in one organ and have after ward had it in another in fact, they were more liable to it than those who had never had it." Then again consumption is so insid ious it takes so long a time to develop that it is impossible to trace it back to its original cause. This naturally leads lo the question if it is an infectious dis ease, and Prof. Biggs emphatically de clares that it is. But it requires more intensity and much longer exposure than any other virulent disease. Half i minute, for instance, is sullicient time to catch small-pox, while for con sumption it would take a very long and constant exposure, not taking into ac count tho at present unexplained fact that a certain number of people aro in susceptible to it. Dr. A. B. Molt, thinks tho question is whether consumption is a scrofulous disease, as has been held by certain authorities, and it so the ad visability of inoculating any ono with a disease so formidable is very question able. Dr. K. C. .lanoway also says that tho introduction of such very small quantities of tubercle matter would bo a very dangerous proceeding. The subject should bo thoroughly tested on animals, and so far no such tests have been made and proper safeguards dis covered that human beings so inocu lated may not bo liablo to tuberculosis. Dr. Delafield, whoso studies on "Pa thological Anatomy" is just going to a second edition, points out that the great difficulty about first testing it on the lower animals will be that lliey aro not so liable to consumption as human beings, and therefore it will bo part'e ularly uillieult to reason from experi ments on them what tho results would bo on human beings. Dr. O'Gorman, of Newark, expressed the same opinion as others who were called upon, that wo were going too fast, that there had been no tests yet made, and it was too soon to say anything about tho inocu lation theory. Several of tho medical gontlemen mentioned aboyo raised another impor tant question: Suppose, the attenua tion of tho virus to bo possible - and it does not at all follow that because ono particular bacteria can bo attenuated by manipulation that another can who shall bo vaccinated? Healthy persons are vaccinated to prevent their taking small-pox; for hydrophobia, also, inocu lation can bo practiced before tho de velopment of tlio disease, but in con sumption there is no evidenco that the porson is liable to the disease, except upon the grounds of inherited tenden cies, until tlio discaso is actually devel oped, and then it would bo loo late. To inoculate generally as a preventive, similar to tho course pursued in regard lo small-pox, would bo altogether un wiso and risky. Thero aro so many in susceptible to the disease, and tlio dan ger of implanting tuberculosis would ho too groat. As an instance of tlio danger, it Is reported that a nurse in Germany in washing a glass which had contained tlio expectorations of a con sumptive cut her baud, ami tuberculosis was tlio result There aro ninny cases reported. So it appears from tho opinions of loading authorities that it is altogether too soon to speculate upon the results of tho now movement, howover ono may desire to plant ono more hopo in the over-hopoful breast of our con sumptive fellow-citizens. Tho possibil ities of practical benefit from tho pro posed experiences aro illimitable, but at present the only real advantages de rived from the study of tubercular bacillus aro tho aids to proving tlio hy genio conditions of thoso afl'ectod by discaso and those, who may becomo so.

Two Wonderful Performances by n Native of India. When lie entered tlio room he spread a white cloth upon the lloor and sat down upon it with his back lo tlio walk the door of tho room being on his right hand. His spectators were disposed in tho following fashion: "Mr. Smyth at on a chair nearly in tho middle of tho room, I was sitting on a sofa near the door, the l'arsee merchant stood in tho doorway about arm's length from me. Tho servants stood about in groups, tlio largest group being bo tween the door and tho conjurer. As soon as lie had settled himself lie turned to tho l'arsee and asked for the loan of a rupee. The peddler at lirst demurred a little, but, on being guaranteed against loss ho produced tho coin. Ho was going to put it info tlio conjurer's hand, but tlio latter refused and told the l'arsee to hand it to Mr. Smyth's bearer. The bearer took it; and, at tiie request of the conjurer, looked at it and declared it to bo really a rupee. The conjurer then told him to hand it to his master. Mr. Smyth took it, and then followed this dialogue: Conjurer Aro you sure it is a rupee? Smyth Yes. Conjurer Close your hand and hold it tight. Now think of some country in Europe, but do not tell mo your thought. Then the conjurer ran over thonamos of several countries, such as Franco, Germany, Russia, Turkey and America for tlio native of India is under tlio impression that America is in Europe. After a moment's pauso Mr. Smyth said ho had thought of a country. 'Then open your hand," said fhff juggler; "soo what you havo got, and tell mo if it is a coin of tho country you thought of." It was a 5-frane piece, and Mr. Smyth had thought of Franco. Ho was going to hand the coin to tho conjuror, but tho latter said: "No; pay it to the other sahib." Mr. Smyth accordingly put tho fl frano piece info my hand. I looked closely at it, thou shut my hand, and thought of Russia. When I opened it I found, not a Russian, but a Turkish silver pieco, about tho. size of a 6-frano pieco or of our own crown piece. This I handed to Mr. Smyth and suggested that ho should nanio America, which ho did, and found a Mexican dollar In his hand. Tho coin, whatever it was, had never been in tho conjurer's hand from tho time tho rupco was borrowed from tlio Parsco merchant. Mr. Smyth and his bearer had both of them closoly examined tlio rupee, and Mr. Smyth and myself turned over several times the fi-frane pieco, the Turkish coin, and tho dollar; so the trick did not depend on a rovorsiblo coin. Indeed, it could not, for tlio coin under-went three changes, as has been scon. 1 only add, for tlio information of those readers who do not know India, that a rupee is only about tlio sizo of a florin, nnd therefore about half tho weight of a 3- , frano pieco. lie did another trick almost equally as wonderful. Ah beforo, lie was seated on a white cloth, which this timo, I think, was a tablecloth, borrowed from tlio mess sergeant, Ho asked some ono present to produce a rupee, and to lay it down at a remote edge of tho cloth. Tho cloth being three or four yards in length, the conjurer could not havo touched tlio coin without being 6eon, und, in fact, did not touch it. Ho then asked for a signet ring. Several wero offered him, and ho chose out ono which had a very largo oval seal, pro jecting woll beyond tho gold hoop on both sides. Tlio ring ho tossed and tumbled several times in his hands, now throwing it into tlio air and catchiucr it, then slinking it between his clasped hands, all tho time mumbling half-in-nrticulato words in somo Hiinloostanco patois. Than setting tho ring down on the cloth at about half arm's longth in front of him, ho suid, slowly and dis tinctly, in good Hiudoostanee: "Ring, riso up nnd go to tho rupOo." Tlio ring rose, with tho seal uppermost, and, resting on tho iioop, slowly, with a kind of dnncing or jerking motion, it passed over the cloth until It came to where tlio rupee was on the remote edge, thon it lay down on tho coin. Tho conjuror then said: "Ring, lay hold of the rupco and bring it to me." Tho projecting edge of tho seal seemed to grapplo witli tho edge of tho coin; tho ring and tho rupee roso into a kind of wrestling attitude, and, with tho same oancing or jerking motion, the two returnou to wutim roacn or. uia ugglor's hand. I liavo no theory to explain oltherof thoso tricks. I should mention, how over, that tho juggler entiroly dis claimed all supernatural power, nnd al- loged that ho performed Ids tricks by moro sleight-of-hand. It will ba ob served that ho had no preparation of his surroundings no machinery, anu no confederate. 8. 8, MvbinaOH, m Boston Herald.
