A NEW GURE FOR TETANUSS
THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1899.
A BRITISH VIEW OF AMERICAN INDUSTRY.
Treatment of tetanus, or lockjaw, by injec tions of carbolic acid solution has been remark-American brag," says the Literary Digest, ably auccessful in Italy said Dr. Antonio has come to be almost proverbial, foreigners Fanani, of No. 66 West Tenth street
not always appreciating the fact that what "I thank Dr. George L. Freeman, whose is called our brag is half the time due to Tetter has just been published in. The World American love of humour rather than to for giving credit where it is due, yet he seems American conceit. Nowadays, however, we do to question the results claimed for the treat- not have to do all our own bragging; there are ment I am happy to be able to give him the others who do some of it for ut. We take the facts. Carbolic acid is a cure for tetanus be- following from an article in the Liverpool cause it is anti-thermic, anti-toxic, and anti-Journal of Commerce, a paper not likely to be spasmodic; that is, it keeps off the fever, prejudiced in favour of the United States even peutralizes the polson and prevents the spasms by Anglo-Saxon sympathies of tetanus. It is administered by hypodermic

In distilled water. The doses are from three to four centigrammes of the solution daily. They have gone as high as thirty-five centigrammes in one day without any sign of carbolic acid poisoning. A
FIRST USED IN ITALY.
Prof Baccelli, director of the Royal Medical Clinic of the University of Rome, frat disco- vered the merits of carbolic acid as a tetanus cure in 1897. Since then it has been freely used among members of the profession in Italy, Germany, France and Russia. Statistics show that Baccell's discovery is infinitely superior to the antitoxin treatment of either Tizzoni or Behring..
"I have at hand reports showing that up to last March thirty-one patients have been treated with Baccelli's method, only one of whom died. "Of forty patients treated with Tizzoni's antitoxin eight died.
"Of eleven patients treated with Bebring's antitoxin four died.
"Of nine patients in another country treated with Behring's antitoxin two died,
"All of these methods are far superior to old fashioned treatment, under which seventy out of every one hundred patients died.
MANY MIGHT HATE RERN SAVED. The World, which is always helping suffer ing humanity, can accomplish much good by publishing these facts, Think of all the lives that would have been saved if Baccelli's carbolic acid injection had been used in the recent great number of tetanus cases in New York. think the World reported more than eighty- four cases, many of which ended fatally."

blow their own trumpet' few will deny. Before condemning them wholesale, however, for indulging in so harmless a discharge of gas which to the British public shows, perhaps, just a little want of taste-it is as well to look around and see if there is not some justification for the American's assumptive right to talk in a fone somewhat above a whisper, and brag of the achievements of his country. Without giving any opinion likely to hurt the suscep tibilities of our fellow countrymen, we would advise many of them, especially the manufac turer, to take a journey over to the States and thero examine the way things are done, note the machinery that is used in producing goods there, and compare it with that which obtains in similar factories in this country. Above all, moreover, pay particular attention to the workers. To an unbiassed person the and favourable to the American. There men difference all round can not but be noticeable
depended upon putting in as much labour as work as if they had to, as if their very lives could be crowded into the working hours of it day, as if, indeed, they had a direct interest in the result of their toil. No one would need to go a long way in this country to find men in the pay of any industrial concern loafing about as if they were paid to learn and practise draughts or cards, or amuse their chums with and cars in their business.... It may be said entertaining gossip, when they should be head that the American is better paid than his British of energy; but, if the American gets more, contemporary, hence this display

And, without condemning the working there can be litle doubt that he earns it capabilities or proclivities of our own country. men, it can not be denied that, generally. speaking, the measure of their day's work is gauged by the capacity for work of the poorest workman, or at least of a very indifferent one. This restraining initudtee upon men of energy and ambition is demoralizing, and has played ment of Great Britain as the world's factory. no little past we opine, in the retrograde mave

The Orio colour-printing machine, of which a specimen has just been set up in London, is the invention of Mr. Ivan Oriol, chief engineer of the Russian Government Printing Works in St. Petersburg, where 32 of them are now at work printing paper money and bank-notes. Its inventor, who was not a printer but a weav-markets are now and will be assailed. ing engineer, originally designed it in order to print elaborate multi-coloured patterns such as would render the forgery of bank-notes impossible by the photographic methods which are frequently applied with success; and it is now being used to produce notes with elaborate interlacing designs, having the most intricate variations of colour, and, it is stated, so perfectly printed that no two in a million are found to vary in the disposition. of their interlaced patterns. The most important feature of the machine is that it prints all the instead of re-

quiring a separate impression as is the case with present methods of colour- printing. In other words, the paper is passed through it once only. This is managed by mounting on a revolving cylinder all the dif férent printing surfaces required for the different colour, and arranging that the various colour rollers are held off the cylinder oxcept when the appropriate printing surfaces are opposite them. In this way all the surfaces are inked, each with ink of the proper colour. As the cylinder revolves each in turn comes in contacting. with and delivers its charge of ink to a smaller transfer roller which is so geared to the large cylinder that it always presents precisely the same portion of its circumference to the suc cessive printing surfaces carried on the for-

A British convey of slow ships is coming under escort from Halifax to Alifford Haven. The hostile A squadron of twenty-seven ships lying in Belfast Lough plus a torpedo flotilla stationed nt Belfast, discover and capture the convoy, whose rendezvous is unknown. The superior B squadron of thirty ships, mostly slower, located at Milford Haven plus a flotilla of des treyers is sent to sea to protect the convoy and bring it safely into Milford. Vice-Admiral Sir Harry Rawson commands A squadron; and B is commanded by Vice-Admiral Sir Compton Domville.

Some interesting experiments were tried at Newbury recently with a balloon and set of Instruments for wireless talegraphy by the Rev. J. M, Bacon, Mr. J. N. Maskelyne, and Mr Nevil Maskelyne. The object was to obtain Information on several doubtful points, mostly acoustic Thus it was intended to test, how far it is the fact that, as is generally taken for granted, a sound is heard with greater intensity across the wind than down it, and Mr. Bacon was anxious to obtain further data respecting echoes from the earth heard in a balloon, sluce certain previous observations of his seem to Indicate that observers in a balloon who explode a gun-cotton cartridge hear the che from the earth much later than appears theoretically cor rect. On the ground a complete set of apparatus, for wireless telegraphy was set up and used for several experiments during the afternoon, but the balloon carried a receiver only, the trans. mitting instruments, being too cumbrous and heavy. To represent the vertical conductor, with which so the best results has been obtained in wireless telegraphy, a thin wire poft long was fastened to the top of the balloon and brought down to one rerminal of the caberor in the car, while to the other was attached a wire of equal. length, which was allowed to hang down vertically, With a view to increase the efficiency of this an old suggestion of Lord Kelvin's was adopted, and it was made to ter- minate in a metal vessel full of water, which slowly dropped out by a fine orifice. A suc coraful ascent was made just after 6 o'clock The balloon moved in an easterly direction, and in about three minutes disappeared in a cloud, not, however fore its occupants: hed Bignalled thar their i

She fired two guns, but did not succeed, as was at first supposed, in putting out of action the four torpedo-boats. After her exploit the destroyer remained on the watch outside, and in order to escape her should she make another dash in, two of the torpedo-boats proceeded up the Enstferry estuary, and a third-No. 72, which was undergoing repairs to the eccentric strap of her fan engine-hid herself under the military side of Haulbowline Island. The latter vessel, however, was espied by the destroyer Ferret, of the B squadron, which dashed into the harbour at full speed at four o'clock on the afternoon of rst inst, and being unobserved by those on the torpedo-boat, who thus had no time to discharge a torpedo, fired two guns at also narrowly escaped capture, but managed to the boat and disabled her. Torpedo-boat 68 get away by the back channel between Haul- bowline, and Rocky Island. The Ferrel then proceeded to sea, steering an easterly course. The incident caused great excitement at Queenstown.
The battle between torpedo destroyers and torpedo-boats grows very interesting, and so far the vessels of the B fleet appear to have an ad- vantage. The naval authorities and the officer acting for the Intelligence Department are fully informed of every move, and the results, it would seem, fully justify the ideas of the ori ginator of this form of tactics, and it is also stated that the operations thus far will mater ially affect futurs policy with regard to boats and destroyers.-L. & C.
