Fvervbod v knows that regular physician In
F.urop commonly us hypnotism In thlr
practice, but th extant to which American
physicians ar employing it la not so much
talkad about. Her lo New York an experi
ment In hypnotism wa tried recently on on
of the daughters of Glto Alexander, at fVJ East
loHth street, and Mr. Alexander sars that
there will b no oontlnuane of the t reatment.
Mr. Alaxahder Is head of th drag firm of Al
exander A V an dar s m isssn. Third avenue and
East Heventr-seventh street.
Th physician who administered tha treat
ment wa Dr. Hugo l.oblngr of I.04M Lex
ington avenue. It Is oulr fair to him to aar at
the start that th teanon asalgnad for th fail
ure of th experiment waa th nrvousnea of
the subieot. not th method of th Doctor. Dr.
Loeblnger 1 th family physlclaa of the Alex
anders. He Is 32 rears old aad was educated
In the University of Herlm and la the r.rlnnger
I'nlverslly In Bavaria. 11 practised In both
Berlin antl Bavaria.
Mr. Alexander has four daughters, of whom
the sscond. Frieda. 17 years of g. ha asth
ma. For a faw days Mr. Alsxander had bn
Buffering with bronchitis and was unable to go
down to hi business. Dr I.osbtnger was sum
moned. Th last three days of last week
Frieda's asthma Became verr troublesome, so
that she was kept awak at Bight and wa
doubled up in her efTorte to breath.
On Saturday evening when Dr. Loeblnger
called Mr. Alexander asked hia to do some
thing to rsllsv Frieda. Th Doctor bad never
proscribed for th girl before, but he tras
familiar with her case aad was convinced that
th cause of th trouble was nervousness, a
diagnosis to which he still adhere It seemed
tu him that If she should prove to b a good
hrpnotlc subject It would ba an easr matter to
make her bellav hralf cured br hrpnolio
suggestion, aad that then she would ba cured.
He broached the project to tha girl's ather.
who Is a man of aclence himself, and who an
proved it.
Tha trouble was that Mr. Alsxandar'a daugh
ters are not men of scleuee. and they not only
did not approve of hypnotism, but wore vary
much frightened at something which seemed
to them uneannr and dlaboiiual. Dr. Loebln
ger succeeded In hrpnotizlnc the patient all
rlgnt, but when she was reetored to conscious
ness she waa nervous and hysterical. Hr
sisters svmpailne.1 with her lo her feelings.
It waa thought bast on Monday to call in Hr.
Gorge W. Jaeobr of mCi Madison avenue aa
consulting physician. Frieda haa bvcoin so
hvsterlcalar.il so afraid of Dr. Loeblnger that
when she saw him sns went off Into a fit
of hysteria bordering oa epilepsy. Her older
sister. Ousala. seeing her atate. lecam
ao much agitated toward night that
she fainted entirely away. Dr. Jaeobr
adviasd ijulet and suggested that Dr. loebln
ger refrain from visiting i rleda until bar ner
vousness disappeared. Dr. Loeblnger pre
scribed bromide, which finally qui'd th
patient. Yesterday ah waa reported to be
much better. Guesle, the eldest daughter.

aa well aa ever lo the evening.
Report having got about In Harlem that
Dr. Loeblnger had hrpnottred both girls end
thrown Hieni lotoatraac from which It waa
impossible for him to awakes them, h con
sented iaat evening to tell exactly what hla
treatment bad bn.
"Id th flrat place." said he. "I am not a

"About '.)'. P. M. Saturday I unuartook ta

and the llmbe are more rigid almost catalep

' Theme' hod of Inducing hrpnotlc si umber is
to keen the eres fixed upon soma one point
until they grow wearr. I held up my watch
before Miss Alexander, who was lo her bed.
and asked her to llx bar eyes upon It. she did
so, but It took some time to lallueuc her. be
cause she did not wish to be Influenced. Bh
resisted for about five minute. Then she
looked steadily at the watch as 1 aaked her to

WisnitriTow, March 27. -Admiral Walker,
who haa been assigned temporarily to Ih
command of th I aclflc station to i elieve Ad
miral Irwin will leave here to-morrow for Han
Francisco, where he takes tho first steamer
for Honolulu. Admiral Walker takes with him
Instruction formulated by the President last
ftlght.
Ths Instruct ens. It Is known, relats en
tirely to affairs in Hawal'. hut ths tenor of
them will not ba made public unless called for
br Congressional resolution There Is no
longer doubt that Admiral Walker goes upon
some mission of delicate Importaoc. which
tha President was unwilling to Intrust lo
other naval commanders, and as Ih
datsll I onlr temporary. It Is surmised that
what he I assigned to do Is to be accomplished
t'lthout delay and th station then turned
ver to snreo other ofllcer whose sea service
haa not been so long as Walker's.
The fact that permission was given theAd-
fulral this afternoon by Secretary Herbert to
sk up hi resilience In the city of Honolulu
aad not confine himself to the quarters of hla
flagship atreagthens the belief that Walker
either goes to etahllsh a coaling station
nt Warl Harbor, cded the I'nlted Mute
br treaty with Hawaii some reara back.
or else thai an Intimation has been received
the' the Provisional tioverntnent Intend to
revoke the eeeelon. or decline to renew It upon
Ihe expiration of the tlm limit given lur th
construction of the station.
Cnder atreatr. the period in which the sta
tion was to he established was limited, and this
time la believed to expire some tlm t his year.
The Administration a poller Inward the I'm
visional Governmert has no pat President
Dole In a good humor, and It Is stated that at
the first opportunity lie v. Ill retaliate in some
form
The Pearl Ilarhor cession will be taken a a
eu. and ao attempt is understood to be con
templated to bold the I nited Slate lo the
terms of Ihe trcntr- Senator I'.dmuntls has
recently said that uader the treaty the I nited
states haa Irrevocable rights to the liaibor,
but at the Navy Department it la held other
wise. The fact that the Admiral expects to remain
Bt Honolulu dispels the I e'uef that hia
orders were made with u view to hla
aeiiiuption of the commaBil of iho llehr
lag' Sea patrol fleet. This licet anils irom
Haa Francis o soon after April lo, and as
the Admiral will not reach Hawaii much be
fore thai nothing would le gained bv his
going to Honolulu should tho department In
tend that he command the fleet.
The Instruetlone to Wnlker are carefully
surrounded with more then ususl mystery.
Were they of the ordmarv character given an ,
oilb-cr assigned to a station they would hn
mnde known, hut Walker Is aot going merely
as the fommander-in Chief of the station,
but upon other duty of some extraordinary t
nature. Admiral Walker takes with I. in
Lieut Stanton and Lieut. Spencer S. Wood as
hi staff. I
tiecretarr Herbert declined to state to Tn
Sis reporter thlseveningt lie tenor of Walker's
instruction-. He intimate I that the President
had given them and that he bail Ino authority
to make them public. Admiral Irwin will re
turn to San Francisco upon Walker's arrival
and be retired from active service. Ilia re

Orion, which Ballad from Roston on March Iff
for P.oocador I!ef. for the purpose of saving
the stranded war ship Ksarsarge, haa arrived
her. The Orion reached Roocador Reef at 5
A. M. on last Thursdsr. si, a found that the
Kaaraarge had been stripped, set on fire, and
burned to tha water's edge br the local wreck
era. After becoming satisfied that tber viae
absolutely nothloj loft of the Kearsarge that
wa worth saving, the Orion proceeded on Fri
tter afternoon for this port, where she arrived
to-dar.
WxsHtvnTiv. March 27. -No despatch had
ben received by Mr. Ilsrbert from Lieut.
Force, the late executlv otTlcor of tha Kear
arge. who accompanied the wrecking party
to Roooador. It Is believed he will report to
the department to morrow that th expedi
tion has been abandoned, and that tha Orion
will return at one to Roston.
Hecreta-y Herbrt was much dlsappeiated
on hearing that all chance ut ssving tha old
ship was gone, but was Dot surprised, as ha
had had great doubt, after recent reports of
Ih condition of th wrack whan seen br pass
ing steamers, that th vessel could be raised
and brought to some port for repalra.
The burning of the ship Is hells e.' to h due
to ibe pilfering of aallvea from theNlcaraguan
coasts, who flocked lo th veaasl in great num
ber aoon after she wis lost.
The Secrotarr believe that everything of
value was stripped from the vesssl. and that
even If the wreck could hav been recovered
little would have been found save th hulk.
While Hi attempt to save the vessel waa dic
tated by purely sentlmentul reasons, there
will be aenorel regret nmonc thousand of
people, as well as many ef the older naval
officers, over liercomplotedestmctlon. Among
the younger naval ufflcera. who believed the
money expeoded lo saving the ahlp could have
been put to bettor use lu tho construction of a
modern vessel there Is something of a feeling
akin to rejoicing that tha navr will not ba
bumpered br another wooden ahlp,
