16 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, MARCH 27, _1836- CONSUMPTION CAN BE CURED. The Hirschfelder Fluid Has | Exceeded All Expec- tations. SO FAR IT IS A SUCCESS| Within a Few Months the Formula Will Be Given to the World. AUTOPSIES PROVE THE WORK. One of the Greatest Discoveries in the Annals of Medicine Made in California. Last November Dr. J. O. Hirschfelder of this City began to test on human beings the efficacy of a fluid subcutaneous injec- tion compounded by himself for the pur- | yose of curing consumption. | He began with several patients in the | County Hospital in an. advanced stage of | the dreadful disease, and whose recovery | was considered hopeless by the physicians. It was not expected that the new reredy | would cure the malady in its last stages, but it was hoped that it would ease the | pain of the sufferers and give evidence that the theory upon which the injection £uid was compounded was true. | Theresults exceeded the expectations of the physicians in charge of the consump- | tives’ ward. After a week or-soof the treatment it was found that the irritating and weakening night sweats and night coughsceased and that there was a gen- eral improvement, but the disease had gone too far and had weakened the sys- iem of the patients too much to give the | remedy an opportunity of showing what it would do. | Although Dr. Hirschfelder was anxious, o the physicians say, to keep the matter from getting into the press, for the reason that premature publicity would do more | harm than good, the patients and their friends neveriheless talked about the new | remedy, and the facts were investigated and published by Tue Carr. It was found in the case of several consumptives that not only did the night sweats and the | coughing cease, but that there was a gain in weight, thus showing that the restora- tive process had begun. One of these, a gardener named William John Davis, was compietely cured so far as ontward appearances went, after three | wmonths of the treatment. His congh and | sweats stopped and he gained ten or twelve | pounds 1n weight. When he came to the hospital he was so | weak that he could not waik a block wita- out sitting down and resting for at least five minutes. After he left the hospital cured he went to work at his irade in Oak- | land, and imprudently exposing himself, contracted another cold which carried him | off. He was more tnan 60 years old and the second attack destroyed all his powers | of resistance. Several physicians who had an oppor tunity of seeing the old man’s lungs aiter | death were positive in their opinion that | the Hirschfelder treatment had had the | effect of assisting nature in replacing the | lost tissne, Dr. Lane said that theappear- ance of the dead man’s lungs was proof that Dr. Hirschfelder had hit upon a cor- rect theory of curing not only consump- tion but the majority of other diseases. A short time ago a committee of medical | men composed of Drs. Kerr, Lane, Ellen- | wood and Gibbons was appointea for the | purpose of investigating the treatment. They visited the patients in the County Hospital and also private patients in this City, and they were convinced that the remedy was curing the disease. But when they considered the fact that a long time | ‘was required for the thorough cure of con: sumption and that the remedy had no’? been applied earlier than last November they judged it inexpedient to make a public announcement of the formula. While, | thus far, the injected fluia had proved that it was a potent curative agent, they pre- ferred to wait a little longer to watch the future condition of patients who were be- lieved to have been restored to health. Taking this view of the matter, they were content with passing a resolution de- claring that they had investigated the treatment and found the facts to be such as to warrant the recommendation that the treatment be continued until such time as the committee shall deem it pru- dent to announce this most important dis- .covery to the world. A copy of the resolution was handed to Dr. W. F. Southard, editor of the local *medical magazine, and it will appear next ‘week. Dr. Southard said that Dr. Hirsch- felder had offered the formula of his dis- covery to him and the rest of the commit- tee, but they declined to acceptit for the reason that it would be injudicious and premature to give it to the world at this time. 2 It is reported that the remedy differs from all other injection fluids used for the cure of consumption and other diseases, and that it 1s not e culture of bacilli or an animal product. Thus far it has exceeded the most sanguine expectations. The ex- periments at present are being conducted with the view of ascertaining the precise quantity of the fluid necessary for a dose that will secure the quickest and best re- sults. S Dr. Hirschfelder was asked yesterday to | give some idea of the progress of the inves. | tigation inta the merits of the remedy, but he positively refused 10 say anytning about it on the ground that a sufficient period of time had not elapsed to place all doubts at rest regarding its efficacy. He refused to throw any light at all on the subject and referred his questioner to the members of the committee. He added that the publicity already given to the matter had had a harmful rather than a beneficial effect upon the public mind. The cure for consumption has been the | cardinalate goal for which thousands of medical men have been striving for several hundred years past. Koch thought that he had attained it by the preparation of an injec- tion fluid which was to destroy the bacilli of the disease, but after his discovery had been announced to the world throughi the medium of the medical and secular press it was discovered that the Koch lymph was a false alarm. It was in order to avoid the humiliation of a similar fiasco that the committee. of physicians appointed to investigate the work of the Hirsehfelder fluid resolved to delay the announcement of its success un- til suflicient time had elapsed to render the evidence unquestionable and uncontrover- tible. In fact the committee are aiready conyinced that the cure for consumption and for several other diseases has been found, but through excess of caution they wish to say nothing about it until the cured patients shall have resumed their or- dinary vocations and be living witnesses of the inestimable value of a discovery which shall write the name of California in letters of gold upon the annals of medi- cine, Handy With the Machine. Before sfgr. Massala was elevated to the he passed much time in , and was the prime favorite of lig Menelek. One day the King asked the future prince of the church to secure him asewing machine, of which he had heard. The machine was shipped to Abys- sinia in parts, and no. one at the court or in the following of Mgr. Massala could put them togetber. At last the King, despair- ing of outside help, took the machine to his rooms, worked at it all night, and the next morning sent for Mgr. Massala and the Queen to show them his handiwork. | He had succeeded in putting the parts to- gether properly. TWO ROBBERIES IN ONE WEEK, and a Half of a Police Station. BOTH BY THE SAME MEN One Held a Revolver to the Head of the Vic- tims. MADE A PRETTY GOOD HAUL No Clews Left by the Footpads on Which the - Detective Force May. Work. Two daring highway robberies in thickly settled parts of the City have agitated the police during the present week. One robbery was perpetrated less than a block and a half from the California-street | Dr. Joseph O. Hirschfelder, Discoverer of a Treatment Which Has Proved to Be Efficacious in Consumption. DOWNFALL OF A BANKER George W. Carrick, at One Time Ralston’s Agent, Is Destitute. Called at the Police Station and Asked | to Be Taken to the Alms- house. Hungry, ragged and emaciated George W. Carrick, at one time a weil-to-do prom- inent citizen of this City, cailed -at the California-street police station yesterday afternoon and asked to be taken to the Almshouse. He told the station-keeper a pitiful story of destitution and want and said that unless he received aid withina few days he would dertainly die of starva- | tion. The old man’s wishes were complied with and he was taken to the central sta- tion from which place he will be trans- ferred to the Almshouse to-day. During the boom on the Comstock in early days Carrick was appointed by W. C. Ralston, then president of the Califor- nia Bank, as sole agent for the bank throuzhout the State of Nevada. In those days the California Bank had immense in- terests in the mines of the Comstock, and dhe least error might have precipitated its ruin. Notwithstanding this fact Ralston’s confidence in his agent never weakened, and Carrick held the position up to a few months prior to the failure of the bank. Finally the books of the bank became hopelessly tanglea, and Carrick, who was an expert bookkeeper, was brought down from the Comstock and placed in the Eosition of head bookkeeper. He only eld his position, however, for a few months when thebank failed. The failure was q‘llickly followed by Ralston’s death, and Carrick, his best friend dead, began to look for other employment. He finally secured a position of consider- able responsibility from the Southern Pa- cific Company, but reverses had weakened the old man’s mind and he eventually gave up that office. Since that time he has gone from bad to worse, until now he is a physical and men- tal wreck. In all probability he will spend the last of his life dependent upon charity for a livelihood, & life which standsoutin bold contrast to his busy useful career during the boom of the Comstock. —————— He Knew Court Painters. ‘When the picture of the Russian Grand Duchess Olga, whom he later married, was shown to the late King Charles of Wurtemberg, he looked at the portrait carefully and then said dryly: “he por- trait is highly flattering; the bair is oo full, the eyes are t00 brilliant and the skin too-fresh.” *But, your Majesty, you do not know the Princess,”’ answered the ad- jutant, who had been sent from St. Peters- burg. *‘No, that is true,” said the King, *‘but I know court painters.” e ———————— Having completed its share of work on the revised version of the Apocrypba, the Cambridge University Press is about to begin a large edition of the Septuagint version of the Old Testament, which wiil take many years to complete. Highest of all in Leavening Power.— Latest U. S. Gov't Report _ ol Bakin Powder ABSOLUTELY PURE | police station and the other only afew blocks from the Harbor police station. } In each case two men committed the | robbery, one of them holding up his vic- | tim at the muzzle of a revolver and the | other securing the plunder. | From the necessarily meager description eiven by the robbed men, their attention having been concentrated more upon the revolver than upon the footpads, the police believe that the two hold-ups were done by the same persons. The first robbery was committed last Tuesday night. A stranger from the country had been visiting Chinatown and at about 11 o'clock, when a few yards | north of California street, on Dupont, two { men standing in the shadow of St. Mary's, | Church stepped in front' of him. One of i them poked the muzzle of a revolver into | the stranger’s face and commanded him in a gruff voice: *“Throw up your hands, and don’tlet a | squeal out of you.” |- The man from the country shot two | brawny arms and sunburned fists toward | the zenith. He had no remarks to make. in fact he was so much surprised and agi- tated at the black muzzle of the pistol that his mouth was too full for utterance, his heart being in it. There was a grocery store on the oppo- site corner not more than 100 feet away, and there was considerable travel from Du- pont street down California to St. Mary’s alley, and from the alley back again by persons going slummine. But this was not compauy for the coun- tryman. He dared not call for help, be- cause the footpad with the pistol, cocked it, making considerable noise in doing so, and with an oath threatened tosenaa bul- let down bis throat if he uttered a sound. The other highwayman rifled the coun- tryman’s pockets with a skill and daxter- ity that betrayed long practice in the agile art of pocket-picking.. He took a gold watch and chain and a few dollars in sil- ver. In another pocket was a purse con- taining considerable gold; but before the robber could reach it the approach of sev- eral Chinamen alarmed him and his part- ner and they ran away. The man who had been. plundered was 80 confused and alarmed that he remained standing for fully a minute on the spot where the robbers had left him, and by that time they were out of sight in some one of the many dark and dingy alleys which exist in Chinatown. He reported the matter to the police, but owing to the fright into which the thieves had thrown him he was unable to give a very good description cf them. The next affair took place on Wednes- day night between 11 and 12 o’clock on Clay street, between . Battery and Front, the victim also being a visitor from the country. He was rooming with a friend on the City front, and was retufning from one of the theaters where he had spent the ‘evening. - As he was walking rapidly through a part of the street where the shadows were the deépest two men stepped out of a dark doorway, and before he could have an op- portunity of using a weapon if he'had one the foremost highwayman poked a pistol in front of his eyes and gruffly ordered him to throw up his hands and to refrain from reciting either prayers or stump- speeches. L The other man took from the victim’s pockets $30in coin and a dep~sit-book on the Hibernia Bank. Then, keeping him covered with the revolver,they ordered him to pursue the even tenor of his way and not to look around or to disturb the peace in any manner, under penalty of being shot in the back. The robbery was reported to the police One Was Within a Block; yesterday, but the description of the rob- bers was not very daefinite owing to the darkness which existed at the place of the hold-up. ‘With George the Strangler on his v!eekly rounds and two successful hold-ups in one week the detective force cannot complain of lack of work. - COMBINE IN LIGHT. Consolidation of the Gas Company and the Edison Concern Probably Effected. Negotiations for the consolidation of the 8an Francisco Gas Company and the Edi- son Light and Power Company are still in progress. The committee having the sub- ject under consideration consists of J. B. Stetson, L. P. Drexler, Joseph B. Crockett and George W. Prescott. Itis believed that a consolidation has been practically effected and that the combined capital stock will" consist of 140,000 shares, of which the gas company will bave 100,000 shares. 3 J. B. Stetson was asked last evening if the trust had been formed, as reported on the street, but declined to be interviewed on the subjegt.- Yesterday the stock of the gas company again went to 841, and onlv receded a iginge. The Edison stock was quoted at [ On the division of the stock, which gave the gas company 100,000 shares, it was pro- Eosed that the Edison company should ave 33,000 shares for its 20,000 shares al- ready out, and that the rest should be re- served to meet the bonded and floating in- debtedness of the latter corporation. The Edison directors contended for a larger snare of the stock. It is surmised ‘that tz;omle concessions were made to effect the eal.

Bamkers, Lawyers and Capitalists Carefully Studying the Proposition. The Legislature of 1895 proposed several important amendments to the constitution of California which will be submitted to the voters for ratification at the next gene- ral election. The proposed amendment relating to the assessment and taxation of vroperty may be regarded as the most sig- nificant, as it contemplates the overthrow of the system of taxation whnich delegates to the constitutional convention of 1879 worked so haid to secure and on which the main fight for the adoption of the con- stitution largely hinged. : It is known that money-lenders, bankers and lawyers, representing insti- tutions which hold securities of great value, are studying the provisions of the proposed amendments ana discussing the chances of ratification by the people. There may be jobs hirking somewhere in the proposition, as the iegislatare which proposed the amendments was not overscrupulous or exceptionally in- telligent. ¥ The amendment is numbered 33, and re- peals sections 4 and 5 of the existing con- stitution and amends section 1 to read: Section 1. All property in the State not ex- empt under-the laws of the United States or this constitution shall be taxed in proportion to its value, to be ascertained as provided by law. The word “property’’ as used in this article and section is hereby declared to in- clude moneys, crédits, bonds, stocks, dues, franchises and ail other matter and things, real, personal and mixed, capable of private ownership; provided that property used for free public’ libraries and free museums, grow- ing crovs, mortgages, trust deeds, property used exclusively for public schools, and such as may belong to the United States, this State or 10 any county or municipal corporation within this 8tate shall, be exempt from taxa- .tion, The Legislature may provide for a re- duction from credits of debts due bona-fide residents ot this State. i Sec. 2. Section 4 of article XII1 of this consti- tution 1s hereby repealed. 5 Sec. 3. Section 5 ofarticle XII of this consti- tution is hereby repealed. In order to convey -to the reader more .information on the subject, the sections indicated for repeal are republished, as follows: Sec. 4. A mortgsge, deed of trust, contract or other obligation by which a debt is secured sha:l for the purposes of assessment and taxa- | tion be deemed and treated as an interest in the property affected thereby. Except as to railroad and other quasi public corporations, in case of debts so secured, the value of the roperty affected by such mo: e, deed of Ttga, Tust, contract or obligation, less the value of | such security, shall be assessed and taxed to the owner of the property, and the value of such security shall be asscssed and taxed to the owner thereof in the county, city or district in which the property affected thereby is situated. The taxes 5o levied shall be a lien upon the property and security, and- may be Fnld bg either party to ssuch sécurity; it pud the owner of the security, the tax 8o levied upon the property affec thereby shall -become a part of the debt so secured; if the owner of the property, shall pay the tax so levied on such security. it shall constitute a payment thereon, and to the extent of such payment a full discharge thereof; provided that if any such security or indebtedndss shall be paid by any such debtor or debtors, after assessment and before the tax levy, the amount of such 157 may likewise be or dei umrnetby such debtor ‘btors, and sonall be computed according to the tax levy for the preceding year. Sec.5. Every contract -hereafter. made by which & debtor is obligated 1o pay any tax or assessment on money loaned or any monnfi, deed of trust or other lien shall, as to any in- terest specified thereon, and as to such tax or assessment, be null and void. : .

Captain Wolters’ Magnificent Canine That Was Banished by Bremen Polices One of, if not the bluest-blooded dogs that ever reached the Pacific Coast, if not the entire United States, is now housed at the home of Charles H. Cattermole of 1522 Mason street, where his owner, Captain Wolters, until recently master of the Ger- man bark J. C. Pfluger, is visiting. 5 The sire of this aristocrat among canines is Yras; the great dog who invariably fig- ures 1n the pbotographs of Prince Bis- marck, Geymany’s grand old man, while his dam i¢ an equally celebrated bitch also belonging to the Prince. Sultan, as the dog is called, is of the famous Ulmer breed, the greatest among German dogs, and bears resemblance to both the Great Dane and mastiff breeds. He is 48 inches from the tip of his nose to the base of his tail, stands 31 inches tall at i-the shoulder and weighs over 180 pounds. He is a rich brindle in color and walks with the stately tread of a lion. 1 Sultan’s sire and dam were once the property of Kmperor William I, who pre- sented them to Prince Bismarck. Both were inmates of the famous Zahna breed- ing station in Prussian Saxony, and there ‘While still a young pup Lie was presented to Mr. Bremerman, a director of the North German Lloyd Steamship Company, who kept him until his temper brought him under the ban of the Bremen police, who notified his owner that.he must be killed, confined or exiled. Just before the Pfluger sailed from Bremen Mr. Bremerman offered Sultan and another dog to Captain Wolters pro- vided. he would make & substantial con- tribution to the city’s poor. On the mariner’s depositing 160 marks in the poorbox he became the owner of the pair. On the Pfluger’s arrival in this port the other. dog, a magnifieent fawn specimen, was sold to John'D. Spreckels for a hand- some price, but Captain Wolters refused to part wita Sultan, though receiving many tempting offers. The discipline of a ship bhas moderated Sultan’s temper, and he shows no hostility except when his master’s physical welfare is threatened, and allows those who visit the captain to fondle him with impnnity. Captain Wolters: leaves for Germany lv(illun a few days and Sultan accompanies him. Cooper produced his best tales whena young man. He always believed his first, written when he was about 20 years of age, was his best. NEW TO-DAY. \»'v. Good health is_ better \than diamonds. Health is life. No pleasure can be taken without it.
