The Medical IVess Circular states that Prof. Virchow reports that in the course of his examination in Berlin oi the bodies of 21 patients who had died after they had undergone treatment with the Koch Jympb, he obser?cd the in jections of the fluid caused bacilli to mul tiply in the body and go to parts in which there had previously been none, thus virtu ally generating a new affection. "This," says the periodical, "is a start ling statement, concerning which we shall probably hear more. Meantime, it is cer tain that the Vinennese bacteriologists have Ecbjected the fluid to a searching analysis. They ciaim that it does not contain any animal alkaloid, and that its effects are due to the presence of a tox-albuniinate sus pended, or rather dissolved, in a dilute solu tion of chloride of sodium. Should Prof. Virchow's observations be confirmed, the composition of the fluid will cease to have any importance." A HUSBAND'S CRIME. He Attempts to Drown His Wife in a Hole in the Ico of a Pond.

Round 12 Dempsey was repeatedly knocked down by upper-cuts and swinging blows and Tutbill threw up the sponge. Carroll rushed forward and kissed Fitz, but an he did so the gong sounded the close of the round and the referee ordered the men to go to their corners. Dempsey was picked up and carried to bis corner, which is a direct violation of Queens berry rules. The thirteenth round and last was horrible to look at, and there was a sigh of relief when Dempsey, after being repeatedly floored, rolled over, moaned in his agony and was relieved by lnsensibleness. Dempsey was attended by a physician in his dressing room. He was a sotry spectacle as be lay back with closed eyes. His nose is broken and his eyes will both be very black to morrow. The Nonpareil is Heartbroken and would say nothing. Fitzsimmons will re turn to Bay St, Louis in tun morning to his wife and child. Jimmy Carroll was at the tele graph office before midnight to wire the glad tidings to bis wife aud Fitzsimmons' family. Mose Guest, the San Francisco sport, is the heaviest loser in town, having lost $8,500 on Dempsey. Dempsey bad been soboing during tbo last few rounds, and when ho realized that he was no longer the "Nonpareil." ho broke down and wept like a child. Tuthill and Mc Aulitfe raised him as tenderly as a mother would lift her babe, and bore him to his corner. Fitzsimmons, with scarcely a marl: on his face, but his body showing ugly red blotches here and there, rushed over to where bis rival sat gasping for breath and took the limp hands in his, leaning over and whispering words of encouragement. Fitzsimmons, by his actions daring the en tire Ugbt, won the respect of every man tre3ent and hundreds pres-eu forward to wring his hand in congratulations. Carroll and other rabid supporters of Fitz Mere wild with joy, while there was mourning in the Dempsey camp, Tutbill and McAuliffe wearing funeral faces as they packed up their effects and departed for the dressing room. Dempsey's shoulders had hard ly touched the earth for the last time before The Dispatch representative had reached Royal street, and was in the saddle of a pony famous for his f peed, owned by Ed Leonard, of this city. A negro boy mounted on another pony, seized tho bridle of the pony, and a wild race for the telegraph office three miles away began. The ponies were given their head, and down the rough, uneven streets they tore their iron feet, flashing fire at every stride. The Journey to the corner of St, Charles street and uravier street was made in less than ten minutes without a falter or mis hap. The streets were crowded with thousands who thus received the first news of the light. OPINIONS OF SPORTS. Kllroin, Muldoon, Meyer, McLaughlin and a Number of Lesser Lights Talk on the Result Fitzsimmons Is Invincible in His Class. New Orleans, Jan. 14. Jake Kilrain said: "Fitzsimmons is truly a wonder. He is as clever as they. make them, and his hit ting power is immense. There never was a a middleweight like him. Talk about his legs! "Why, there isn't a weak spot in him." "William Muldoon, the wrestler, before the fight, said: 'JI have my money on the one that my judgment tells me is the best man that is, on Fitzsimmons. My sympathy is all with Dempsey." After the fight,' Mnldoon said: "I never dreamed he was such a man. He is a whirlwind, a terrific bitter, a two-handed fighter and a great general. I never saw as fair a fighter in my life. He should have been awarded the fight two rounds before. The referee is a fair man. If be hadn't been scru pulously careful, he could have awarded the fight a ronnd at least sooner. It's a great pity that Fitzsimmons didn't win in ten rounds, as there was a great deal of money upon bis doing so." Billy Meyer said he was amazed at Fitzsim mons' cleverness, although ho had put bis money on him. He uas':nitall the time, and was as fresh as a lark when he finished. Major McLaughlin. President of the Califor nia Athletic Club, said: "Ever since I saw Fitzsimmons fight in 'Frisco with McCarthy I have been certain he could lick Dempsey. My only surprise is that he did not do it In fewer rounds." Macon, the sporting authority, said ho felt terribly disappointed. He bad been a Demp rey man, but atter the second round he saw Jack wasn't In it. Bantam, the Southern sporting authority who came out boldly when the match was made and predicted that Fitzsimmons would win, was naturally very happv. He said verj few heavy weights could whip Fitzsimmons. When the tight was over Fitzsimmons was as full ot fun as a colt He sparred with Carroll and tapped him on the nose playfully. Ho spoke hisrlily of Dempsey as a good, game tighter. Jimmy Carroll also bad a good word for the fight Dempsey made. Phil Lwicb, ono of Sullivan's backers in the Sullivan-Kilram fight, said: "I lost heavily on Dempsey, but think as much of him now as I ever did. I will bet S5.000 on him to-morrow against La Blanche. He was outclassed to night. Fuzsiinmons is a wonder can wliiD a dozen heavy-weights I know. Dempsey was' as good as ever be was, but couldn't reach bis man. I had no idea Fitzsimmons was as good as he is. He can whip them all." Frank Stevenson, Kilr.iin's backer, said: "Dcmpsuy made a game fight and wis at his best. Flt'z-sluimons was clearly the best man and oveunatched Jack. Fitzsimmons is the cleverest man of bis class, and the best fighter 1 ever saw. 1 do not know anyone that can whip him.' THE WESTERN TROTTERS.

It Prospects are exceed ingly bright for the reorganization of the Trl State League at the meeting to be held in 'lAkion ea the 21st Jast,, and ou a firmer basisj than ever before. Wheeling. Mansfield and Akron are certain to have clubs next season, add Canton can be counted among the sore things. Jake H.

It The National Leagno convened shortly after noon and continued in session until 3 o'clock without transacting any important business. A recess was taken until 4 o'clock.

Cohen and Schmelz; Baltimore. William Barnie and Von derbnrst: Rochester. General Henry Urinker; Toledo, Messrs. Ketchum and Morton: Syra cuse, George K. Frazer; AtbletlcG. M. Tavlor, The Syracuse and Athletic delegates were not present In the meeting. Earlv in the day an injunction was served on the American As sociation officials restraining that body from expelling Toledo. The Toledo people became frightened, but there was no cause for anxiety. Syracuse had been indirectly offered S7.000 to get oat and Manager Frazer was more than willing to take it Rochester was offered $7,000, and General Brinker said the Associa tion, be knew, would give still more. President Parsons, ot Lonlsville, is opposed to paying one penny to any club to retire. All the other del egates are disposed to make a settlement. Tho meeting adjourned till 10 o'clock to-morrow morning, after a brief and uneventful session. If a compromise is reached it will bo done on the outside, and then the meeting will simply sanction it. Chicago seems to be as sured of an American Association franchise, and it was rumored that Chicago's Sunday games might be played in Milwaukee. Man ager C H. Cushman. ot Milwaukee, was on the scene, though not for that purpose, he said. Mr. usuman saia tnac wnuo tire league anu Association might want the Western Assocla tion to go into the national agreement, the Western folks might not be so willing to enter. They wanted to see some benefit from it first. If by any deal an American Association fran chise should go begging. Milwaukee would be delighted to go iu. Buffalo capitalists are ready to take a franchise and were expected to be represented, bat did not appear. General Dixwell, of Boston, was unconcerned about the future of bis club apparently. He said the League could not afford to freeze them out of the American Association. The Flay ers' League, be says, is by no moans dead. It has four solid clubs, and can go ahead on-a small bat sore scale. He is almost alone in his position. The remnant otstbe Players' League is to hold a meeting Friday. WORKING FOR NIXroXASON. A Movement Under Way for a Western Pennsylvania League. ScottdAle, Jan.

It is likely to be composed of last year's players, with the exception of Pitcher Neves, who has signed a contract with the Denver club lor the coming season. He is to be well paid for bis services. Manafee and Milbee, of the 1889 club, have signed to play with the Erie club in the New York and Penn sylvania State League. Frank Boyd, the catcher, will sign with the same club.
