Payohle doings, tragic and . eomle, weird
Charges of "malicious animal magnntlsm"
nd "msntal malpractice'' have lately been
'JHllna; on top of one another In the vicinity
of New Tork, and the average man lias
.been wondering whether a revival of tho
age of witchcraft la Imminent.
Over In Somervllle, K. mere was
pubUo exhibition of hypnotism last week
In which Prof. Arthur Everton threw his
subject. Robert Simpson. Into a trance and
walked on hla rtgld body, aupported at the
fextremitiea on two chairs, -and then was
nable to awaken him. Everton was ar
rtsted. ri Insisted that the subject was

Iry gave advice, one of them reading,
Suggest heart action." ' An expert hypno
tist from Newark arrived, and did auggMit

i,"Bob, your heart action. Listen Bob,

kneT Bub. your heart Is starting!"
; But It was not starting, and an autopsy
showed that Simpson's aorta had been
rit lured, whether a the result of strain
(urlng hypnosis or otherwise.
Stlrrlns; A merles Spooks.

black masks, hands that grabbed people's
ankles and the like.
Although "animal magnetism," whether
malicious or beneficent, has a new sound,
it la merely one of the early terms.' along
with mesmerism, for hypnotism. The
early experimenters thought that' subjects
were acted upon by rays emanating from
crystal balls, bright lights and so forth.
Braid, who mads a pioneer scientific study
of psychic phenomena, discovered that the
subjects really acted on themselves. 1 He
demonstrated this in a oase where a Lon
don scientist was producing wonderful
catalepsies .by the aid of magnets. Braid
told the patient that h would, put lo her
hand something more powerful than a mag.
net and thereupon threw her Into' a deep
trance. But the mysterious objects . more
powerful than a magnet were only a purse
and key ring. On another occasion he in
formed a woman friend, that he had 'just
got a sample of an American drug that
acted through glass, causing nausea. He
put a vial of colored water In her hand and
h Immediately became nauseated. The
cure consisted In giving her another vtal"
Of colored water which waa guaranteed to
be the antidote.
Hypnotic Suggestion.
The Emmanuel movement In ibis coun
try Is a revival of the early recognised
curative power - of hypnotio suggestion.
Ecsema. constipation, paralysis, chorea,
bad habits, abuse of drugs and liquor have
been cured by mental treatment. It would
be logical to assume that these diseases
can also be caused by suggestion, al
though It Is denied that the produotlon of
blisters and changes of temperaturs are
genuine hypnotic phenomena. The theory
la that hypnotism reaches the lower sphere
of consciousness In which there Is control
over bedlly functions whtck) are normally
Involuntary; for example, the sweat glands
and the Intestinal muscles. Scientists
deny that suggestion can act without tht
knowledge of th patient. Of course, thero
may be a subconscious knowledge which
does not reach th higher levels of .the
mind.
Homoepathy Is elted by Its critics as a
brilliant example of suggestion. . Accord
ing to Sir J. Y. Simpson, there was one
homoepathlo solution so attenuated that
th patient would have had to take a dose
every second for SO. 000 years before he
would have consumed on grain of th

flriig. ' Another medicine was so diluted
that It would- have required an. accumu
lation of doses equal to sixty-four times
the bulk of th earth to amount to - one
grain of medicine. Dr. Elisha Perklna of
Norwich, Conn., In 1766, patented a brass
arid Iron "tracer" three lncheu long, which
a as drawn 'across the 'forehead to cur
tobthache and headache. It was popular
and successful. '.
Many kinds of mechanical moans, as
crystals, lights, the sound of a gong and
passes with the operator's hands, are used
Ui start the subject on the subliminal path.
Experts variously give from three to nine
stages of hypnosis, beginning with drowsi
ness and ending with deep somnambulism.
Liletault says there Is first drowsiness,
then drowsiness with a possibility of sug
gestive catalepsy, ' then slight sleep with a
possibility of automatlo movements, then
deep sleep In which th subject only hears
what the operator tells him, then light
somnambulism of which ' the . waking
memory Is Indistinct, and finally deep
somnambulism with an entire loss of mem
ory on awakening and a possibility of all
the phenomena.
A Dlspnted Doctrine.
Evil suggestion, which Is tba scientific
counterpart of "malicious animal magnet
Ism," Is a disputed doctrine. Some Euro
pean authorities,' as Luys, maintain that
anything can be done with a hypnotized
subject. A man may be poisoned or mu
tilated without th slightest after recollec
tion. Subjects may be made to sign their
names to promissory notes or wills. On
the other hand It Is maintained that th
moral aense of subjects Is even keener dur
ing the hypnotic period than in "the normal
state, and almost Invariably resists evil
suggestions.
, LJebault, a member of th Nancy School
of Investigation, found that only Ibr I per
cent of his subjects were amenable to
criminal auggestlons. Some subjects car
ried out the experimental crimes evidently
because they realized that the deeds were
not bona fide. An English experimenter
suggested to a young shopkeeper, who had
refused to play th role of a minister or
that of a fush pedler, to put a lump of
arsenic (actually sugar) In a friend cup
of tea. Th young man did so, and when
asked why he had poisoned his friend res
pited, laughingly, "Oh, he has lived long
enough."
Many girl subjects refused to follow In
dellcat or Impolite suggestions, even show
ing a moral squcamlshness not of their
waking state. On girl wouldn't help her
self to a glass of water, deeming It Im
polite, and another refused to tell an anec
dote walch bar mother regarded as a good
jok. A young woman declined to put her
finger t her ns as an aailatant In th
xporlmanta. although ah laughed at th
ruat. A. physician hypnotised gUl
suffering from lung trouble and was sur
prised at her refusal to let him examine
her cheat: On being reminded that h had
often made this - examination, :ie replied,
'You never before did It when I -was
asleep." When awakened she remembered
nothing of the episode and apologized tor
hr rudeness to the physician. Subjects do
not usually recall In (he waking state their
hypnotio experiences, but remember them
when again hypnotised.
Hypuotle Limits.
Eernhelm had a girl subject who seemed
to be entirely In the power of her oper
ator, yet could not be persuaded to empty
an Ink bottle on her best dress. An Ameri
can subject cheerfully, obeyed orders to
stab the operator with a cardboard dag
ger, but when an open penknlfo waa given
her and she waa told to repeat the act
she hesitated and had an attack of hys
teria. . .
More under th Influence was a young
woman subject of a European alienist who
bad trained her to go into a trance at the
striking of a gong. She waa orosslng a
street one day when she heard the chimes
of church bells, became hypnotized, stag
gered about, was run down by a vehicle
and killed. A somewhat similar cafe ws
that of an officer who hnd been hypno
tized . at a public performance and was
accustomed to fall Into a trance when
ever he saw a shining light. One night
a carriage lamp In the street producted
the usual effect on him and he was walk
ing toward It In peril of his life, when a
companion seised him.
Although the plea of suggestion Is not
so common In criminal cases today as It
waa a few years ago. as far back as 1VB
a tramp was tried and convicted In a Eu
ropean court of abusing a woman after
hyptonlzlng her. In 1879 a dentist was
charged with mistreating a young patient
by suggestive power. In 1S94, a man named
Csynsky, was sentenced to three years In
an Austrian Jail for hyptonlzlng into
pseudo-matrimony a Baroness von Z,
aged 3S. Dr. Volsln reported th case of
a woman who was hyptonized and used as
the tool of extensive thievery by three
criminals. Prof. Krafft-Eblng testified In
favor of an accused shoplifter, who In
sisted that she bad been hyptonized, and
she was acquitted, but it was afterward
found that she was a professional that
and had deceived her scientific champion.
Potency of Suggestion.
Suggestion is potent In criminal cases In
another direction than th causing of
crime. As administered by th police In the
"sweating" system, It Is a prolific cause
of false confession. Robert E. Cantwall,
a Chicago lawyer, has found 117 caaes of
execution for murder on "confessions" In
which the alleged victims wer afterward
found to be alive. At the Stelnhell trial
In Paris the other day a young man, prob
ably aelf-hyptonlzed, rushed Into the court
room aqd proclaimed himself the assassin.
A number of American psychologist, in
cluding Professors James and Munsterberg,
believe that Richard Q. Ivens, a young
man who was executed for the murder of
Mrs.. Bessie M. Holllster in Chicago three
years ago, was actually Innocent and was
hyptonized by th pollc Into his "con
fession." There ar said to be three ways of graft
ing false Ideas on th minds of others
first, by quiet and apparently sincere
statements, repeated at intervals; second,
by cunning "Indirection or th production
of an Inference," which la a mental trick;
third, by violent forcing, which Is the
police "sweating" style.
The effect of continued hypnotism on the
subject is a weakening of th will and In
tellect, and In , nervous caaes there Is a
risk of Insanity. A trance is followed by
nervous exhaustion and sometimes convul
sions.' A number of deaths have been re
ported during th hypnoc trance or fol
lowing It. Bernhelm reports a man of 37
who was hypnotized to relieve the pain of
an inflamed leg; he began to breathe with
difficulty and died In two hours, declaring
that hypnotism had killed him. Th post
mortem showed embolism of the pulmon
ary artery, and probably this was due to
the excitement of th hypnotic process..
This case resembles the recent fatality
in New Jersey. There was a physician who
hypnotized his wife to extract a tooth
without pain. He mad a few passes; she
phrleked and dropped dead". She had, It Is
said, no trac of heart disease. A well
known Austrian subject, Ella von Salmon,
became much excited one night preceding
a seance, and died. Th post-mortem
showed nothing wrong with her except
anaemia.

TEST BRIDGES UNDER STRAIN
Effect of Spaed of Heavy Train
Recorded and Now Being;
Analysed.
Dean T. E. Turneaure of th College of
Engineering, University of Wisconsin will
report the results of the 1S.000 lest made
on the effect of the speed of heavy trains
on the members of steel and Iron railway
bridges, at the annual meeting of the
American Railway Engineering and, Main
tenance of Way association In Chicago next
March. Two years have been consumed In
the Investigations In which. Dean Tur
neaure aays, nothing has been found to
Indicate that Insufficient provision has been
mad In th past for safety, but rather
that It had not been mad In the same rela
tive degree In largo and small structures
and In th same members of a structure,
to secure th maximum economy.
Heretofore little actual data has been
available regarding the comparative effect
of high and low speeds on steel bridges,
so that allowance for such strain had to
be mad largely by guess work In th spec
ifications and designs. A few Isolated
experiments wer conducted with apparatus
purchased In Germany, including those of
Prof. Turneaur In l7. Extrsm difficulty
and expense prevented further Investiga
tion until two years ago when Prof. Tur
neaure invented an electrical Instrument of
simple design which autographlcally rec
orda th actual amount of bending, length
ening or shortening of tha bridge membors
under stress. Twelv duplicate of th In
strument wer mad In th university shops
for th tests, which covered vry part of
som fifty bridge on eight railway sys
tems. Including th Santa F. Rock Island,
Chicago, Milwaukee V St. Paul, Nickel
Plat, Chicago, Burlington ft Qulncy, Nor
folk and Western Pennsylvania, and New
Tork Central.
fifty to 400 feet In length and required from
on to three days for a test of each.
For five weeks the first summer and
nine th next, Prof. Turneaur, aaalatad
by Prof. W. R Klnne. E. E.
Parker, O. L. Kowalk and J. B.
Kommer of Wisconsin university and
Prof. C. L. Crandall, Prof. E. W. Retlger
and A. C. Irwin of Cornell devoted them
selves to the field work and during tbo
past summer supplementary tests . wro
made on on of the Missouri rlvr bridges
near St. Louis. .The railways furnished for
the testa the necessary heavy engines and
loaded trains, which wer run back and
forth over th bridge at varying speeds,
producing by th autographic recorders lfi,-
000 diagrams, th data from which I now
being assembled for th final report, which
is expected to furnish a mora rational and
xaot basis for bridge design, eliminating
the element of guess work In providing for
speed strain.
Dean Turneaur la of the' opinion that
not all of th fund of $9,000 ralsod by th
railroads of th country for the tests win
be consumed, and that the remainder will
be utilised in starting another series of
tests Involving a different feature of de
sign. This will requ'lro a new. type of ap
paratus to be developed during the coming
winter In th laboratories of the college of
engineering.
