The pledges made to .the friends ol the Fair were kept In every instance.' 1 At noon Friday the House resumed, in committee of the’ whole, the consideration of the bill. Mr. Cummings, of Now York, opened tho opposition with a bitter speech against a proposition which ho characterized as one which was intended to loot tho Treasury. - The World’s Fair proposition had so mixed itself up with the Government that it was difficult' to tell which was the World’s Fair and which was the Government. The remnants of former Congresses had covered the floor so that it could hardly be told whether the present Congress or the heel-taps of former Congrosses ran the House. It was a matter of pride with him that he had filibustered against this looting appropriation. Mr. Fellows of New York eloquently supported the bill. The work, he said, was a Governmental one. The idea of the fair had been born in Congress; it had its inception here. From the start to the finish it was a Governmental work. Tho debate continued until 1 o’olook. Much of it was entirely foreign to the question pending and referred to the Commissioner of Tensions. Precisely at 1 o'clock the Chairman of the committee of the whole stated that under the order of the House the committee must rise. Having arisen, tho Burboro w bill was reported lo the House. Tho ponding amendment (and the only one) was a substitute offered by Mr. De Armoncl, of Missouri, for the first section of the bill.

A second e#lj was ordered and tho bill was passed by a voto of 131 to 83. A motion to reconsider was laid on the tablo after a futile effort to filibuster was made by Mr. Bailey of Texas. This passes the bill finally in the House.

NEW CURE FOR PNEUMONIA. Rlood of a Convalescent Injected Into the Huffferer's System. A novel operation was performed at the Philadelphia hospital by Visiting Physloian W. E. Hughes la thi presence of the resident staff and nurses, and tho result has been so favorablo that It is now the opinion of the medical men interested that a new and immediate cure for pneumonia has been discovered, - The operation consisted in, a patient who was recovering from the disease being bled, and his blood being infused into the arm of the sufferer. The patient on whom the operation was performed was a white man who had been brought in by the district surgeons The convalescent from whom blood was extracted was a colored man. An incision was made in tho white man’s uppor arm,.and one of the veins was Isolated for about half an inoh. After It bad been bound and the natural flow of blood stooped, a slit was made in it and a glass tube with a wide aperture was Inserted. Then about a pint of .blood, extracted from the arm of the colored man. was poured In. Gravity carried it into tho veins, and Soon tho blood was coursing through the man’s body. Ip order that the body should not be supercharged with blood a similar amount was extracted previous to the operation. This was black and un-healthy-looking, while the blood infused was of a bright-red color. After the operation the man's temperature rose, and symptoms similar to those that wero noticed after the Koch lymph lnjeotions followed. In a few hours, however, a change for the better sot in, and the next morning tho man’s temperature was normal, and apparently he Is a well man. According to the theory aoted upon, the system of a eouvales -ent is lull of the pneumonia bacteria antidote, and when the blood charged with this is infused into a sufferer It works a cure immediately.

The committee appointed by C. L. Severy, assignee of the defunct Bank of El Keno, O. T.. has jfist mode a partial statement of the condition of the bank’s bOoks and the financial standing of the president of the concern, S. W. Sawyer. The deposits Of the bank, as far as the lommlttee has progressed, are shown .to be a little over $7,000, but such vehement protests were made by the citizens, that tbe expert accountants have refused to act further as examiners. Bawyer figured his assets on the books at $20,00P, but this amount represents city property, which is nearly all contested and is really of no value at aIL The partial statements of the committee have intensified the feeling against Sawyer, and one of the most prominent attorneys in the city said that unless Sawyer or his wife made a speedy settlement with his depositors he would be proseouted for larceny.
