the fact thnt hostilities with the Sioux and a
general outbreak Is imminent. George Cot-
grove , nn old rancher , rode Into camp yester
day and Htutcd that n party of Indians lin I

In wait for about half an hour or more bo-
rhlnd a woodpile.
Soon Indians were hoard going at a good
rate , whooping and yelling , Three of the In

the ranch , when a cowboy named Fred
Thompson shot and Instantly killed the for
mer ono , who fell backward off his pony , the
pony running Into a field near by. A volley

horses.
A fusilndo was then commenced on both
tides , fully n hundred and lllty shots being
fired , Ono cowboy , whoso imino was not
learned , was seriously If not fatally

Cubic Special to TUB Bnn.l Are Parnoll's
mental powers failing ) A couple ot weeks
ago Lubouuhcre snld ho always thought
I'uriiolt n man who might go mnd , ftnd re
cent events bad made him conclude thnt , the
'evil day hart come. Not a few who heard
Itn today bellovo that his mind is unsettled.
t was In the postofllco after 1 o'clock this
lornlng when ho rushed In , wrote n tele-
ram , rushed out again , with oycj fixed ,
'eiiturcs ' set , anil seemed to see no ono ,
iiough there wore a number In the room
horn ho knew.
Ho luughod today , not a pleasant laugh ,
nd staggered those who heard It. It came
it tint during his speech to the crowd hi '
rent of the Victoria hotel word had been
cntout for a gathering of the Purnell. clans
in market day at Kllkcnnoy by the hotel
in parade where the market was
old. Several hundred people were
resent. The speakers wevo William
tcdmond , Fltzgcral , Harrison , O'Kolly ,
cully and Purnell. The people acted curl-
maly ; were anxious to see and hoar Parncll ,
ut having donu so manifested no satlsfac-
lon , except the minority of shoutew In f rent ,
ut the main tiody uf the people were silent.
Jhcers came only from tno roughest element
ml boys. It was quite common to hoar mon
, nd womnn ask , which is Parnclll Ho does
ot scorn to bo known except by nnmo. His
olco was very husky and ho stopped hi the
nlddlo of his short speech to break and swal-
ow a raw egg.
He devoted himself to an. attack on Sir
ohn Pope Hennessey. This seemed Illogical ,
' that Sir John Purnell's
'onsldcrlng was enn-
Iilato. Ho said Hennessey was a tuft-hunt-
ng place hunter , but did not show how this
reputation belonged to him moro now than
wo months niro. The speech was a distinct
'allure. The same may bo said of the incut
ng , for no enthusiasm was shown.
Scully looks not unlike Parnoll. Ho
aid It was a poor business to swop a horse
.11 the middle of the stream , especlaly when
on hadn't another horso.
The meeting dispersed quietly. It was
upposcd that Parnell was going to Water-
'ord In the afternoon and thence to Limerick ,
lo changed his mind and would not go. Ho
ihanged his mind again to stay at Kilkenny
111 the election. The various mental changes
tecp the correspondents Jumping.
Meanwhile In the evening quietly at a
, vork meeting the priests mot at Ballyrnpgct
n North Kilkenny , where the electtou Is to
bo bold , and It should bo remembered that
the town of Kilkenny , to which Parnoll has
been devoting himself , is not In It. Fully
talrty flvopriests jvero , prosontj The .prlosts
declared their firm resolution nod solemn
conviction that Parncll had rendered himself
totally unfit on moral and political grounds to
.oad In the future Irish people.
They condemned the Freeman's ' Jour-
lal and the seizure by Parnoll
of "United Ireland" nnd adopted the candi
dature of Sir John Pope Hennessey.
On top of this mooting come ? the address
of the Bishop of Ossery who lives in Kil
kenny , addressed to the priest's people. Ho
casts his lot with Dillon , O'Brien and other
soced era nnd nnd asks the electors of North
Kilkenny to do likewise. Like every ob
server , the bishop is aware that the conserv
atives are hurrahing for Parnoll and will
veto for him , So far Parnoll has boon firing
Ltlanlc cartridges. There are no electors In
Kilkenny , so llealy and Davltt , Dr. Tanner ,
Dr. Esmond and the priests voted today
against the meeting hero. They waut no
Uonnybrook fair business. .
Davltt returned tonight from a visit to
lastio Corner and the coal minus on thoedgo
of Quuons county. Tno reception was
'tithusiastlc. ' Between these two points
there are 1,400 electors. "Parnoll , " ho said
to'mo , "will not get moro than twenty votes
outside of tbo conservatives , and they are til1
for him. There are about four thousand
votes In North Kilkennoy nnd as suvo as I
ivo ho will have at least a majority of a
thousand. Parncll is undoing the work of
years In inciting racial hatred after years
spent by all of us in uprooting it , for ho and
the rest of us know that homo rule can't
come to Ireland ihrough the English people
whom ho is now trying to excite against us.
Hut wo will win. Ho may hnvo the ro.ugh ,
unthinking element with him ; may have
mobs to hoot , but the people who kavo given
the country hearts are with us. "
Sunday la to bo a busy day. All the prlosts
of the various districts linvo something to
say about the coming contest and there wil
bo meetings , generally antl-Parnoll , in pl
directions. 1 spent an hour this evening in
the patriot committee room. Six priests
were there going to work In a systomatl
wav , giving advice , talking to national racnv
bora of parliament. I alluded to Parnoll's '
bare mention to "another side to the story. "
"Yes , " ho replied , "wo all know another
side to the story and to us ono day ho said hi
would lift the corner of the veil. "I hnvi
been assured , ho said , of destroying a happy
home. Whoso happy homo have 1 acstroyod I
Lot me tell you that In a married life of
twenty-three years Captain O'Shea did not
spend thr'eo hundred nighu at home. I have
never urank a glass of wluo with him nor has
he ever paid a farthing for anything I have
overeaten or drunk. ' That is the corner of
the veil he lifted. Parncll accuses Gladstone
of not giving a straight answer. Does ho
not only equivocate ! Ho lies.Vo did not
force him out. We bogged him to re tire for
a short tlmo. Ho refused and forced us to
depose him. Ho is now working hand In
glove with the enemies of Ireland. The
torlcs are on his side and will work and vote
fur him. It is certainly the fact that the
torlos nro working for Parncll but nro likely
to do him little good. They are dangerous
allies of Ireland.
Hero again Parnell's agent assured mo to
night ho was certain of Parncll't success.
'Walt nnd Beo1' ' ho said , "It will astonish
you. "
He Is mistaken In ono sense. Nothing can
astonish a man In Irish politics.

The circular further s.iy : "While surren

BKIIU.V , Dec , 13. The relchstag has ad-
ourned for the Christmas recess. It will resume -
sumo its sittings January 13. Its debates ,
Iko those of the landtag , are losing their
) lttcrnc.is nnd keen enmity toward the gov
ernment which were wont to characterize
them during the Uismnrck regime.
The discussion of the budget before It wni
remitted to the committee , In which the
party lenders figured , illustrated the change
n stylo. Herr Uobel in an Impassioned yet
moderate speech drew a sombro pic-
.uro of tht ) misery of the pens-
ant under the present policy of
protection , which enriches the great tnnd-
ords at the expense of the poor consumers.
Ilcrr Hcbel contended thnt It was untrue
that protection aided the small farmer , nnd
contended that the largo cultivator and the
rent-receiving landlord were the only ones
Benefited. A high tariff on cereals and cat
tle , ho assorted , profited only the rich land
ijoldernnd Impoverished the poorer classes.
The rural populace emigrated in masses into
the town , thus Increasing the misery , crime
nnd dissatisfaction In the crowded centers of
population ,
Hcrr Hlchtcr attacked the military credits ,
declaring that It was needless to maintain
the present expenditures In view of the
peace that now prevails In Europe ami the
fac tthat no power was menacing Germany ,
Dr. Wimlthorst defended the government's
ngrarinn and colonial policies and denied that
the miseries which Herr Dobcl depleted were
duo to the existing laws. It was social morals ,
ho declared , and not the organization of so
ciety that was responsible for tno evils af
flicting the people , A reformer oughtto aim
to purify nnd fortify society through religion.
A. man who could bo said to bo without re
ligion was only a beast.
The speaker was Interrupted at this point
by the sooinllst members with cries of "What
Was Frederick the.Greatl" .
"If Frederick were living ndw , " re
plied Dr. Wlndthorst , "you would not bo
hero , " nt which remark the members laughed.
Herr Uamberger made a practical speech.
In which ho attacked the projected treaty
with Aubtrln , saying ho was opposed to it if
it Involved a differential tariff.
Chancellor Von Caprivl did not try to re
fute Herr Bambcrger's arguments , merely
contenting himself with saying that ho could.
not discuss the treaty question pending the
negotiations. The fact is , ho said , that the
conference in regard to the treaty which are
being held in Vienna are coming to nothing
and nro nbouCto'Vo ad jounied until February ,
with thp probability that they will never bo
resumed. The two governments were mak

Dr. Windthorst's ' present thorough-going
support of the government is duo to relations
with Chancellor von Caprivl lu regard to the
question of rclig' n orders.
The bundcsrat'i ' as refused to approve the
resolution adopted by the reichstng , by which
theological students are permitted to pass
the last six months of their army service In
hospital work. The centrists consider thnt
this refusal indicates that the buudesrath
will not pass the measures for the recall of
the Jesuits unless Caprivl uses the whole of
his influence with the government to support
their demands.
The Volksblatt has obtained nn'd Is making
the most of the circular of an association
formed to combat the destructive tendencies
of socialism. The circular , which Is private ,
bears the signatures ofVonMoltko , Miguel ,
Puttkaracr , Krupp , the bishop of Troves ,
and others , chielly belonging to the old
cartel party.
The recent speech of Emperor William
upon the educational system has had a marked
effect upon school methods. The school re
form committee has voted to substitute mod
ern for ancient languages In all the lower
classes In places where there are only gym
nasia , and also make such changes in the
present system of roalschulon and high mid
dle class schools us will enable tbo course to
bo continued in higher roalschulen. In Ham
burg the town council has decided to estab
lish a higher middle class school lu accord
with the emperor's ideas.
The Frankfort Zcltung announces the
flight of a banker named Rclss , an embezzler
to the nmountof 400,000 marks.
Many medical men who came from abroad
to study the Koch treatment nro leaving with
their hopes af its success abandoned. Some
specialists contluuo their demonstrations ,
but others have ceased to offer inquirers fa
cllltlcs. Prof. Bergraaiv ppon , concluding
his demonstrations , announced that' ho would
not pronounce definitely upon the results for
a year , but roatllrmed lila belief in the value
of tbo treatment.
The committee of German Freemasons np

Ucrman Freemasons mot nt the resi

Vlroliowand Loomln Talk : on the Ettl
onuy of Kouti'N Lymph.
( Copi/rlflMed 1SOUJy Jama Go/xloii ZIemuU.1
BERLIN , Doo. 13. [ Now York Herald Cable
Special to THIS Bun. | The Herald inter
viewed Prof. Vlrchow , the foremost patholo
gist of the world , and obtained his views on
Dr. Koch's lymph. The savant was full of
hurcastlc humor at first , and assured mo that
ono of the American students of his labora
tory had begged for ono drop of the lymph'
with orders to go to Philadelphia and estab
lish a now hospital.
Ho said it was absurd to know that doctors
in all parts of the world were about to Inject
n powerful poison into the bodtc * of men before -
fore Koch had made known the results of
largo or long continued doses upon animal ] .
It is highly dangerous and Indiscreet to have
an unknown and untried fluid in use by Inoi
pcrts. It is u pity to have it used upon men
In nil stages of disease nnd non-disease when
those who use It should nt least know what
elaborate experiments hnvo proved. "I can
not express nn opinion ns to the reason why
the lymph only affects the tissues inhabited
by the Bacilli until Koch tells what it U made
of. Wo must have tuberculosis ttssuo taken
from n living patient hoforo tbo lymph Is ap
plied , nnd tissue taken from the same spot
nftcr treatment to Judge what the action It.
Otherwise wo may mistake the changes
caused by the disease Itself for the changes
caused by the lymph. The best euro I have
found Is the action of the lymph In cases uf
tuborculouis affections of the larynx , Under
ordinary treatment tubercles form on the
cdgo of the voc.U b.ituli , and finally
they are detached , leaving behind them
ulcers which wo cuu readily heal , but the dif
ficulty has been these tubercles develop so
slowly that by the tlmo ono sot of tubercles
has detached themselves another set springs
tfr another place. Koch accelerates the
growth and segregation of tubercloi lu the
larynx so greatly nnd they are full grown and
detached so quickly that baforo now ones ap
pear ho can hcnl the whole larynx. It Is very
clear to mo the lymph Is dangerous
to children nnd persons in an ad
vanced stage of phthisis. In the case of chil
dren it brings on n perilous Inflammation of
the lungs , niul In advanced phthisis It is nnt
to destroy the lungs. In cases of tubercular
meningitis the fluid is likely to cause fatal
inflammation of the brain tissues. No
doubt the remedy brings on astonishing
changes iti lupus and apparent cures have
been affected so far In tuberculosis of the
lungs. Some cases in early stages of the dis
ease show a slight Improvement. The patient
clniuibho feels bettor. His weight Improves
nnd there Is less sputum , but my opinion is
these results nro mostly psychological. The
patient's mind and system nro affected and
stimulated by the knowledge that ho is re
ceiving a now remedy which Is said to act
quickly. No tests made now , In this tlmo of
excitement are worth much. Wo must have
a period of quiet before the real search ; be
fore the results can bo made known. For
patients must bo in normal condition and
take a year or two before wo can toll whether
Koch's remedy is effective for phthisis. It is
possible that by the end of careful experi
menting of two or three years wo may bo
able to use this lymph successfully in com
bination with some other compound and so
conquer pthlsis In Its first forms.
"I do not admit that Dr. Koch's lymph Is n
perfect diagnostic of all forms of disease
caused by the tubercle bacilli. It Is
dtacnontlo nnd very remarkable , 'but
In the few days occupied by the
present public experiments wo already
find the lluld provoked n reaction
where no bacilli existed , nnd failed to nut
where bacilli were found. The point I make
Is that the lymph Is not an absolutely certain
diagnostic. There is one good service which
It renders science. It proves that several
differing maladies are caused by the same
bacilli , such us lupus , strunius bono nnd Joint
tuberculosis ami phtsisis. "
When I asked Vlrchow what ho thought of
the announcement that a professor In Scot *
land haa-dlscovored the microbe of career ,
ho laughed and said : "WIthGod everything
Is possible. 'Great U Allah I I hod an Idea
that cancer existed without a raierobo , liut if
humble bow to the microbe and also to the
detector. "
Before Dr. Loomis loft for New York I
Interviewed him , lie said : "I was skeptical
at llrst , but now consider the lymph the
greatest medical discovery of modern if not
of nil times. I saw , yesterday , In Dr. Von
Bcrgtnnnn's private wards , un Englishman
cured of nine years of lupus with sixteen
Injections of less than one-eighth of n drop.
The lymph , diluted , cured him of what was
considered an absolutely fatal disease. All
uround mo were cases of wonderful
cures. Prof. Von Loyden , the great Internal
medico , would use lymph on his own child
If the occasion should necessitate It. "
lie noticed nn improvement In advanced
cases of lung tuberculosis and advised the use
of the lymph.
Dr. Loomis snld that every drop of the flu id
was worth at least $100 ! , as a diluted drop
will furnish ovcrono hundred and thirty in
jections of average strength and any reputable -
blo American physician can got $100 for each
injection , as a phial contains about ninety
drops. Its present actual commercial value
is $ rS,03 ( ) . The doctor said a drop was worth
three times moro than a fine diamond of the
same size.
