It is claimed that the theory of inoenizt.on as a eunre for diphtheria has bLeen thoroughly and suecessfully test--ed. Thelprocess is by injecting some of the blood of an animal that has been inoculated with a weak culture of the diphtheria bacteria, only stroug enough to slightly affe¢t the animal. On repeated occasions of late it is.claimed that sufferers from diphtheria have been treated in this manner, both in Berlin_and London hospitals, and in every case prompt cures have been wrought. This, if true. proves one of the greatest medical triutiphs of the age. ' L . ; T'ne question Is a‘man the owner of his own teeth? has come before a German eourt at Gera.

WON'T GIVE UP. Strike Leaders Declare Their Fight Is Not Yet Ended. They Say They Are Able Still to Bring the Railway to Terms—Managers | Do Not Seem Worried Over the Prospects. . : REVIEW OF THE SITUATION. CHICAGO, July 16.—Strike leaders say that the strike is still on and that war against the corporations will be waged to the bitter end. Railway managers declare that the strike is a thing of the past. They claim to have many of their old men back at work, and are filling ~ the places of others with men recruited in other cities and sent here by the car-’ load. Trains are moving with something like their old-time regularity. Freight is being moved but the congestion is not ended. Throughout the city the trades-union men who were called out in the endeavor te make the strike effective by paralyzing the industries of the town, have resumed work in most cases, and their part in the great strike was a complete failure. Uncle Sam’s troops still gird the lake front witl},their white tents, and the state militia patrol the miles of railway tracks. There is talk of decreasing the force, but the authorities await more definite information as to the collapse of the strike. President Debs main‘ains an air of confidence in the ultimate result, and holds that the blame for prolonging the struggle rests with the general managers. Telegrams from other railroad centers are more emphatic than ever before to the effect that the American Railway union strike is at an end outside Chicago. ~From Detroit, Toledo, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, and other points the news is much to the same effect— that most of the railroads are running freight and passenger trains on schedule time, that men who deserted their posts at the order to strike are applicants for reemployment; that new men are plentiful enough to supply the needs of the railway managers and that some of the roads emphatically refuse to reinstate former employes who deserted at the dictates of the union. L Saturday the General Managers’ assoctation adjourned sine die. Recognizing that the railroad strike was virtually ended, the members felt that there was n 6 further need for their daily meetings. None of the general managers seem to place the slightest importance upon President Debs’ intention to try to -call a fresh strike upon every road in | the country over which the American Railway union has any influence. President Eugene V. Debs, of the American Railway union, held a long conference Sunday with President Samuel Gompers, of the American Federation of Labor, and P.J. McGuire, first vice president of the federa'tion and secretary of the Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of Amer~| jca. In speaking of the meeting he k said: **The railroad strike is’still on, and to-day we begin again, backed by all organized labor.” . Mr. Debs said that Mr. Gompers.had assured him that the American Federation of Labor would raise all the money it could for the support of the Pull-| man strikers and for the members of the American Railway union on a strike. He added that he had received | assurances of financial support from‘ other large central bodies, who. likg‘ ‘the Federation of Labor, thought it best not to call a general strike; but! to continue at work and keep the American Railway union supplied with the sinews of war. | At a conference held at the Revere house on Saturday, at which President. Debs, Vice: President Hqward, Secretary Keliher and Di rector Rogers, of the American Railway union, General Master Workmad Sovereign, of the Knight i | Labor, and Grand Chief Stephenson and Secretary Rodemos, of the Na; tional Brotherhood of Railway Carmen, were present, it was agreed that the Knights of Labor 'in Chicago and other points in ‘'the i west = where there is trouble with the railroads 'will be called out. Knights of Labor at other places will remain at work and will contribute their moral and financial support to thee strikers. When the meeting had adjourned it was announced that the leaders, in addition to ordering a strilke of some Knights of Labor, had decided to call out all carmen and trackmen; to appoint a number of additional managers of the strike; to appeal to Chief Arthur to forbid members of the Engineers’ brotherhood working with non-union mean, and to push the strike and boycott more vigorously than ever. P The announcement made 'Sunday morning that strikers at Pullman were on the point of surrendering and asking for employment, in the palace car works at the reduced wages is confirmed. Thomas Heathcote, leader of the Pypllman strikers, admitted that all his influence and ' that of other labor leaders was required to preventa general stampede of the workmen and officials of the l Pullman ccmpany acknowledged that ~ they expectedp orders from headquar- ~ ters any day to open the car shops t..ha.t _hav? been closed more than eight - weels.

' wOODS AFLAME. . Blazing Forests Cause Great Destruction in Several States. BRADFORD, Pa., July 16.—Fdrest fires are causing serious losses to lumbermen in this county. Many destructive fires are raging between Bradford and Kinzua, in the hemlock district traversed by the western New York and Pennsylaania railroads. At Peck’'s switch, near Marshburg, a pile of saw logs containing 350,000 feet of timber was destroyed, and a force of men are at work trying to confine the flames to. one locality. The logs destroyed belonged to Weed. Munday & Coi, of this city, and were partly insured. East of Morrisons, 8 miles in Corydon township, 2,000,000 feet of hemlock logs owned by the United Lumber & Coal company, of Oil City, and the Warren Packard company, of Warren, have been destroyed. Fifty men are now battling with the flames in an effort to save 1,000 cards of bark piled in - that vicinity. Families at the lumber camps thereabouts have moved to places of safety, taking their household goods with them. Af Thurston’s camp, Corydon township, the people:. barely escaped "from their houses before the flames destroyed all the property in the place. The fires are the result of the recent dry spell, and as rain has commenced to fall it is likely there will be no further damage. b

Eae HArBOR CiTy, N. J., July 16.— Forest fires that have been raging in this section for several days past have swept over an area of over 5,000 acres. Saturday night the condition of affairs looked. serious, and the residents for several miles around were called out to meet the flames. Although they met with some success in changing the course of the fire, there isgreatdanger that ‘many buildings will yet be destroyed. Among the buildings already burned were those on the farm of Congressman J. J. Gardner, including his fine country residence. Near Bridgeport the dwelling of Capt. Gus Williams was also destroyed. A fierce fire is now sweeping through °the dense woods in the lower part of Galloway township, and is headed directly toward Hewittown. Itisimpossible to form any estimate of the loss at present. The principal losers, however, will be the owners of the timber lands, large sections of which have been swept by the flames. Bie Rarips, Mich., July 16.—Probably a hundred men, women and chil-, dren, inhabitants of a' ten-mile section of the southern part of Isabella ‘county, are homeless on account of forest fires. ' Although now only smouldering the fires are causing much suffering and privation. A lumber camp of the Gale Lumber company was destroyed with many acres of green timber. Three small sawmills, many, houses, crops, bridges, = fences, etc., have been burned, but there has been no loss of life. The people are praying for rain.

COST THREE LIVES. : The Jealousy of a Nevada Husband Results in a Triple Tragedy. Love Lock, Nev., July 16.—Three men were killed near here [hursday night as the result of a husband’s jealousy. Robert Logan shot and killed Dan Lovelock and Fred Sullivan, and was in turn killed by his wife. Mrs. Logan had applied for a divorce, and her husband. was insanely jealous of her, threatening to kill some of ‘her male friends. A few days ago Mrs. Logan went to Cottonwood to visit her mother. Logan followed and that night attacked and severely wounded Dan Lovelock, the stage driver. Lovelock was unable to return, so. Mrs. Loga\n brought the stage back. Wednesday she returned to Cottonwood to bring Lovwelock home. -Mrs. Logan drove with thé wounded man on the seat beside her. Fred Sullivan, a stranger, rode on a rear seat. About dusk Logan rode up on horseback. He was armed with a Winchester and ordered ;| his wife to leave the stage and go with him. She refused, ~saying she was going home. Logan then said he would go, too, and rode on behind. They rode along for two. hours, when Mrs. Logan heard a shot, and turning saw Sullivan fall dead with a bullet through his heart:. - He had been shot in the back by Logan. ‘Then the mur- . derer shot Lovelock, who was too weak to defend himself, and he fell dead in Mr. Logan’s lap. Logan then got into the stage and, taking the reins from his wife, drove toa well, five miles distant, into which he said he intended to throw the bodies of the murdered men, after - which he would kill his wife. However, she persunaded him to water the horses first, and as Logan stooped to secure a bucket from under the & stage, Mrs. Logan took a pistol from Lovelock’s pocket, and, when he arose, shot him. He begged for mercy, but taking careful aim, she fired again and : Logan fell behind the stage. Mrs. Logan dismounted and fired one more ' shot into her husband’s prostrate form to make sure he was dead.

Leaving Logan’s body lying in the dust, the plucky woman drove into town with the other dead men and told the: news. Lovelock was stage proprietor and driver, and though well acquainted with Mrs. Logan, had never been suspected of intimacy with her. Sullivan was an entire stranger. The people here denounce Logan as a coward and commend Mrs. Logan’s courage.

SCORED BY SENATORS. Btrike Designated a Rebellion—Ex-Presi~ dent Harrison’s Opinfon. = WASHINGTON, July 12.--The strike was the subject of a lively debate in the senate to-day. Mr. Peffer (pop., Kan.) c¢alled up his resolution declaring for government ownership of railroads, coal mines, and for a single tax, and he made it the occasion of a speech in behalf of the strikers. He predicted more trouble unless congress and the administration and the couuntry took immediate warning and adopted some such scheme as he had proposed. Mr. Davis (rep., Minn.) took occasion to tell Senator Peffer that it was the kind of anarchy ‘ now prevalent in Chicago that he was inviting by his remarks. . Mr. Davis scored the Kansas senator unmercifully upon his populistic - theories. Then he declared for law and order and the preservation of peace throughout the country. i ; Senator Davis. speaking of the Kyle resolu=tion, spkid it was put in at a time when the troubles in the west were in progress for the purpose of making the United States a partner in the lawlessness. The strike grew from & strike to a boycott, a boycott to a riot, and now to an insurrection. He described the various acts of lawlessness, and said that Kyle's resolution was to take away the power of the United States to punish such gross acts of violence. If the acts of violence had been com.mitted upon the great lakes or the high seas it would bave been piracy and punishable by death. The authority of the TUnited States could not be denied. .The duty of the president is to see the laws executed. It was time that such action should be taken to put down the rising tide of anarchy that threatens to engulf the city of Chicago. The military power of the country was at last necessarily called upon to put down the lawlessnews. The senator from Kansas' had said the troops should be withdrawn, but he had not ‘given a suggestion .of 'what would protect life and property. Debs could not do so if he was given full power, no more than he could restore the cars burned by his men. s . Mr. Davis was followed by Senator Gordon’ (dem., Ga.) an ex-confederate general. Mr. ' Gordon made an impassioned appeal for the ~ preservation of peace and the upholding of the laws and the constitution of the United States. He declared that the lawlessness that had been indulged in at Chicago and in other sec- ‘ tions of the country as the result of the strike | was nothing less than rebellion against the authority of the government, and he appealed not only to the senate but to all good citizens to uphold the national authorities in maintain- ~ Ing law and order and the-honor of the gov- | ernment. i . Mr. Daniel (dem., Va.) then offered a resolution commending the course of the president -and declaring in unequivocal terms for the enforcement of the laws of the land and the upholding of the constitution. ol ; Mr.: Daniel, himself an ex-confederaté. in commenting briefly on these resolutions, shared the sentiments expressed by Gen: Gor=don, and declared that all sections of the country, north and south and east and west, had common cause in upholding the government, its institutions and its laws. EX-PRESIDENT HARRISON’S VIEW. INDIANAPOLIS; Ind., July 12.—Ex-President Harrison claims to have been misquoted in reference to his opinion of President Cleveland’s action in ordering United States troops to Chicago: Said Mr. Harrison: “Ihave neither said what lam quoted as saying as to the use of United States troops by the president nor do I think that the president has transcended his power.. On the Other hand I believe that there is mno. spot *in the- United States where the United States troops may not go under-orders without asking anybody's consent, and that the enforcement of the laws of the United States is the sworn duty of the " president, and the army @n appropriate instrument to use in the enforcement of those laws where they are violently resisted and the civil officers are unable to deal with the situation. If the posse comitatus law limits the president’s constitutional power at all, which is very doubtful, it only requires the proclamation to precede the use of troops.” i SENATE INDORSES THE PRESIDENT: ‘WASHINGTON, July 13.—The sénat,e. without division, has adopted Senator Daniel’'s resolu= tion commending the course of the president, denouncing as treason the acts of the men.who are practically levying war against the United States, and strongly declaring for the inforcement of the laws of the land, and the uphold- , ing of the constitution. : e

'IN A GRAND CAUSE. = Opening of the Christianr Endeavor Con- _ vention at Cleveland. CLevELAND, 0., July 13.—Notwithstanding the uncertain conditions of travel incident to the great railway strike, it is estimated that- 20,000 strangers are temporarily quartered in this city to attend the Christian Endeavor convention, and: every incoming train is adding to the number. Every one of this number was anxious to. secure a place within the doors of the Saengerfest building, and long before 10 o’clock every seat and every available inch of standing room :in the hall was® ocenpied. Those who could /not get . into the hall were @ accommodated in a monster tent ~ in the eastern part of the city, having a seating capacity for 10,000. . o The address of welcome was delivered by Gov. McKinley. The governor was very cordially received: and his words were applauded vigorously. - Secretary - Baer's anpual report showed the society to be in a very flourishini condition and with an ever incredsing membership almost phenomenal in proportions. The growth of the society during the last twelve months has been the largest since it was organized thirteen ' years ago. During that period, 7,395 companies have been added to the ranks, against 5,276 companies added to the rolls during the previous year. England has now 1,453 regularly enrolled companies, including fifty-eight in Scotland and thirtyeight in Ireland, or a total of 75,000 individual members. The gains have been very heavy in .India, Japan, Turkey, China, France, Spain, Mexico and other foreign countries.

In President Clark’s report, which was read in the evening, he said: = -

“Right nobly have you rallied around this standard during the last year. ' From east and west and north and soudth has come the good news—'Christian Endeavor stands for the election of good men, for the enactmeént of good ’ laws, for sturdy and steady opposition to the saloon. the gambling hell, the lottery, the violation of the Sabbath.’ o ‘lt stands by such men as Charles H. Parkhurst and every kindred spirit in every politi‘cal party that seeks to purify politics and to make this Immanuel's land. I congratulate you that non€ of you have been cajoled into making our organization the tail of any political kite. To be- a Christian Endeavorer ‘does not. =mean that .one is necessarily a republican or a dem“oerat or a populist or a third party man, iory or a liberal. It does mean that he--4s necessarily a good citizen, and. that he will exert every ounce of his infiuence to whichever sex he belongs (if the young men will excuse the generic pronoun) for the right. “While Tammany flourishes in New York and open gambling in Chicago and licensed prostitntion in New Orleans, and the Louisiana lottery has moved only across the street to Honduras, the outlook is dark. Itis dark, but not _hopeless. This last year has seen Boss McKane | sent to Sing Sing, and Brooklyn redeemed. It has seen Croker fly to Europe. It has heard Woolley speak in Chicago and Indianapolis, and Murphy in Boston, and has witnessed a score of other good-citizfins‘hip campaigns. It has seen. - thousands of Endeavorers go to the primaries who never went before. It has seen a splendid ~ verdict pronounced against the saloon in Canada, a verdict that Endeavorers have made em~ ; phatic in a hundred towns.” * . S ! Strikes in Pennsylvania. i HARRISBURG, Pa., July 14.—According to the annual report of the bureau of statistics of Pennsylvania, which has just been completed, the strikes during last year numbered fifty-three, or about twice as many as were credited to the previous year. Not one of these strikes was successful. The number engaged in them was 950 and the number involved 17,308. The estis | ‘mated loss in wages was $1,395,488,
