CURE FOR SPINAL MENINGITIS “l—_——“ Announcement of Discovery Made at Medical Meeting. 5 New York, March 12.—Authoritative announcement of the first authentic cure of dread cerebro spinal meningi- tis by means of intra-ventricular in- Jections of the Flexner serum was made at a meeting of physicians and surgeons at the New York Academy of Medicine.

BUSINESS INTERESTS CONTINUE AT WORK Hope to Bring About Settlement of Big Strike, Philadelphia, March 12.—Another ef- fort to find some method by which the struggle between the Philadelphia Rapid Transit company and the Amal- gamated Association of Street and Electric Railway Employes can be end- ed is to be made by the United Busi- ness Men’s association. This body represents thirty-two bodies of busi- ness organizations with 12,000 mem- bers. It is expected that a strong and rep- resentative committee will be appoint- ed to take steps to bring the two war- ring sides together. The meeting, it was said, would take the ground that the general public has some rights in the present situation. A powerful de- mand was planned to end the struggle quickly. Among the plans, which, it is said, will be presented at the peace meet- ing, will be an appeal to the big banks and bankers of the city to bring about a settlement of the strike. It will be suggested that the bankers alone have the power to force a speedy adjust- ment. The executive committee be- Heves that if the bankers consent-to act the Philadelphia Rapid Transit company will have no other alterna- tive than to agree to a programme of: conciliation, as the company is a large borrower of money, and would natural- ly heed the demands of the financial interests.
