O'CONNOR Latest Novelties in Tobacco Jars and Pipe Racks at Burford's One Million Offered for Consumption Cure I)r. Frledrlch Friedmann, of Berlin, says that he has not as yet accepted the offer of $1,000,000 made to him bj President Charles E. Finlay of th? Aetna National Bank of New York. The offer is contingent on Prof. Fried matin's being able to make an abso lutely successful use of his live-germ tuberculosis vaccine on Hex Lee Paris, a son-in-law of Mr. Finlay, who is ill of consumption and now under treat ment at Saranac Lake, N. Y. "Up to this moment," shys Dr. Fried mann. to a London correspondent, "1 have accepted no special offer oi any kind. Whether- I shall do so be tween now and my departure for New York or when 1 get there, I cannot ; ay, at this time." According to the correspondent the rival live-germ tuberculosis vaccine, from the Pierkowski laboratory is to go to Saranac Lake on the steamship Mauretania, along with Dr. Friedmann and his vaccine. Thus it is likely that there may be a "race" for the $1; 000,000 prize offered by Banker Fin lay for a consumption cure that will actually cure. The Pierkowski cultures are in charge of H. Prescott Simpson, o\ Cleveland, Ohio. "The preliminary step to enable the German government to apply my rem edy for the benefit of humanity are taken with my full knowledge and consent." Dr Friedmann tells the cor respondent. "The arrangements are being made by Prof. Schlcich, who is fully instructed in my process and is able, necessary to continue my special work during my absence in America. 1 tell you this to show that it isn't true that I have given no doctor of stand r ing an opportunity of testing my reme dy. "In pursuance of the regular course of events Prof. Schlelch will go to see Director Klrchner at the German Imperial .Ministry of the Interior. You know that in bureaucratic Germany negotiations with the government take time. "If there is another live-germ vac cine cure for tuberculosis extant I am only too glad to learn such is the case, because sulTering humanity in that event has a choice of remedies. But I must observe that I)r. Karfunkle cannot be using my remedy. His cul ture, if I understand his claim cor rectly, is derived from an originally virulent human tuberculosis bacilli that have been artificially rendered avirulent by passing them through the blood of a turtle. I discarded my ! artificially neutralized human bacilli. What 1 now employ never was human bacillus, but it is culture derived from turtle tuberculosis germs which has never come into contact with human bacilli and which therefore, never lias contained the germs of human tu berculosis. ".My bacilli are purely of turtle or igin. I should hesitate myself to treat humans with artificially aviru lent human bacilli, because you can not possibly be sure the bacilli will i not recover their former virulence, when returned to the human body. Let me repeat that the so-called Pier kowskl culture is human virulent ba cilli rendered artificially avirulent. .My bacilli were originally reptiles, and are less virulent. "Regarding my plans after my ar rival in New York I prefer to make no | statement at present." Bulgar Premier Tells of the Balkan Alliance i t Ivan K. Gueshoff, the Prime Mini 1 ster of Bulgaria, a few days ago gave ? the first authentic and authorized ac ! count of the forming of the Balkan al J liancC, whose achievements have ? transformed the map of Kurope and . may produce a new grouping of the | powers. "I used to write for the London ? Times myself." he said, "and was sen ! tenced to death by the Turks for show ' ing up Macedonian atricities in Glad ? stone's time. But, as you see. I have ! lived to do more to the Turks than " they wanted to do to me. "It is not true, as has been report . ed. that I was educated in America. " I have never lived there, but 1 admire the country immensely. Americans ? have done much for Bulgaria. They ? founded several good schools where | ; our boys and girls get a thorough edu ? cation. ? "1 want to tell you about the Balkan | alliance, because some newspapers ? have been saying that Nicholas Pash ? itch. Servia's Prime Minister, made it. I That is not so. It was made by Dr. * M. Milovanovitch. then Servia's Min I ister for Foreign Affairs, and myself, j just after the war between Italy and Turkey broke out. We first talked about it on meeting at the railway station in Belgrade Oct. 13, 1911. 1 was on my way home from Vichy. Af terward negotiations were carried on in Sofia, and a treaty was signed in Sofia March 13, 1912. "After this we opened negotiations with Greece and signed a treaty with her May 29. 1912. "We began to negotiate with Mon tenegro in June, but nothing was signed, though we came to an arrange ment as late as the beginning of Sep' tember. "The alliance will hold hold good even after peace has been signed. Ki amil Pasha (the late Grand Vizier ol Turkey) was for peace, but 1 do not know whether he will be able to deal with the Young Turks and the mili tary party. The note of the powers made a profound impression on him, "The United States of the Balkans is not impossible, but it is a dream at present. The Bulgarians do not think about a union of the Slav nations." OAKLAND GAME WARDEN MURDERED RICHMOND, Calif.. Feb. 0. ?

Into a German prison have gone John Dixon and James Rotlgers of New York because of a confidence game they tried tc i play, it was charged, on another New Yorker, named Malhaine. Dixon is put away for two years; his associate got eighteen months. Pretending to fall in with the plot Malhame handed over his purse, then summoned to the police. The lattei say that in the last several years there have been in Berlin alone twenty-one cases wher Americans have swindled Americans. "Americans," said the detective in the Malhame case, "are used to bluf fing. They can palm off the most ven erable swindle, one that has been ex posed a dozen times in the newspa pers, and yet make it appear perfect ly harmless. This is owing to theii perfect control of the countenance. "When Germans try the game thej nearly always give themselves awaj either by getting too excited or els< because they let their faces betraj them. It takes an American to swin , die an American." The story that Malhame pr. tmde< to swallow was the well known on< of the man who has inherited a for ' tune and who wants the victim to tak< care of it while the rogue goes to taki a drink. In the exchange of purses the victim gets one stuffed with greei paper.
