'YTondcrfnl Work Accomplished by Infln

Prot J. O. Arthur.of Pnrduo university,
doliverctl a very interesting lecturo tho
other night at tho Athcnanim bofore tho
Chicago JIlcr6sCoplcal society. Ilia sul
jeet was' "IiacllU and Bacteriology.'!
Prot. Arthur 'did not go into tho
tccjUnlcal details of hjs Bubject, but in
a general way g.ivo somo facts about
tho Infinitesimal world which Uvos and
moves and lias a being co-ordinately
with that world of greater living mani
festations. He said the beings of this
infinitesimal world, of which nothing
was known until the invention of the
microscope, presented almost ae much
of Interest to the student of llfo' in ita
broad sense as was to be found in the
study of Human lifo itself. It was a
common error to think f bncturia only
In connection With disease, but In point
of fact that viow of bacterial llfp was as
much at fault as to look upon all mon
as anarchists. Thcro aro forms of
bacterial life which contribute as much
to tho well being of tho higher forms
abovo them as tho good citizen con
tributes to the maintenance of tho so
ciety in which ho lives. Much of
tho disintegrating processes of na
ture by which its elementary
forms aro combined bo as to
mako them adaptable to tho uses of a
higher lifo is accomplished by tho un
flagging energy of this world of living
atoms. As illustrating the good work
accomplished by bacteria ho mentioned
tho lightening of wheat bread and tho
flavoring of cheese and butter, which
latter work was sometimes rather over-1
done in tho zeal of theso small workers.
Tho speaker then gave his audtenco an
idea of the rato at which theso micro-!
scoplc beings multiply. ,It takes from,
one-half to an hour for one bacterium
to becomo twain. Theso two then set
ting up in business on their own ac
count can duplicate thomsolvos in tho,
same time. So that starting with just
one healthy bacterium on o bright Juno
morning by sunset of tho same day
thero would bo moro bacteria floating'
around than could be counted between-
now and tho millennium. Tho lecturer
closed by alluding to tho research which
had been mado by German nulcroseopists
One of these had even gone so far, ac
cording to his own claim, as to discover
tho lovo bacillus .which had been found
in tho brain of a banker's son who com
mitted sulcido on account of unrequited
lovo. The bacillus of avanco had also
been discovered by theso indefatigable
workers; it was found in tho body of a
usurer, of course. The society tendered
Prof. Arthur a voto of thanks for his in-
tercstincr lecture.
A' PlinCfirrnplil'e lTicl.
"There's.ono thing that isn't general
ly known, even in my own (profession,"
said a prominent photographer yester
day, "and that in eight cases out of ten
tho expression of two sides of a face,
when taken in profile or threo-quartcr
Bizcs, differ. When it comes to tho
question of a picture in profilo thcro is
a right and wrong sido for nearly every
face. Although I havo studied on this
fact during tho three years sinco I first
discovered it, I still can find no explan
ation for it. A carefully taken portrait
of a man looldng over his left shoulder
is denounced by himself and his frionds
as both untrue and unflattering. Let
hiullook to tho right, take an equally
accurate picture, and tho result is moro
than satisfactory. In view of this fact,
when a bit of profilo work is ordered, I
keep turning tho subject both ways
until I find tho sido which seems to mo
tho most favorable. And in tho ma
jority of cases pictures taken in this
way are invariably said to flatter tho
subject." N. Y. Commercial Adver

PiTTSBi-ita, Aug. 3. Hon. John Fox,
one of the attorneys for the Amalgamn
ted A'sociation, is authority for the
statement that to-day warrants will be
sworn out for the ut-reat of Clinirman II.
C. Frlok, Secretary F. T. F. Lovejoy,
General Superlntundent Potter, and four
or live under bosses at tho Homestead
Steel Works, charging them with mur
der. Attorney Cox also says that Borough
Solicitor Mllliken is preparing a num
ber of informations charging several of
tho militiamen now In camp at Home
stead with having Insulted the wives and
daughters of some of the best citizens of
the borough.
The warrants cannot he served upon
the willtlumen, however, until the men
are discharged from service by the Gov
ernor. Jlr. Frick continues to improve.
Supt. Potter this morning claims that
222 new men were received and
put to work in the mill yesterday. In the
party were a number of steel workers.
Forty-two came from Cincinnati, but 10
of them rofttsed to go Into tho mills. Sev
eral applicants wero refused employment.
Mr. Potter reiterates his statement of yos
terday that tho strike is broken and tnat
the company is the winner. One-third of
Battery 15 and the Sheridan Troop of cav
alry broke camp yesterday and started
homo. .
Ullicers of the company havo sent word
to the different cities where agents wero
employing new men to send no more men.
This is reported to mean that enough of
tho strikers have signified their willing
ness to return to again equip the mills,
Mr. Curry, of the Carnegie Company,
said, in reference to this, that tho firm
had every reason to expect fully 2,000 of
tho old employes to return. He also said
that thero wero 1,100 men in the mill to
day. It was stated by tho officers of ihe com
pany that their action in starting tho
Pittsburg mill Monday was no deviation
from their intention all along. They
said they would not begin work in Pitts
Ijurg until the trouble at Homestead was
over. That they started one of theso
mills shows simply that they regarded
the critical period of the Homestead
trouble to bo past.
In tho criminal court yesterday tho
cases of Anarchists Bauer and Knoltl
came up. When Attorney Friedman pre
sented his petition, asking that they bo
admitted to bail, Judge Ewitig said:
"I tako it for granted that tno' court
has grounds on which to hold these men,
but as there Is now no possibility of death
resulting, I will fix the bail of Bauer and
Knold at $5,000 each."
The prisoners remained in tho dock
while Attorney Friedman and tbelr
friends went in search of ball, which they
after some difficulty secured.
Attorney W J. Brelman, for tho Amal
gamated Association, presented to Presi
dent Judge Ewing the petition he had
prepared for the appointment of a volun
tary trade tribunal for tho settlement of
tho Homestead strike.
E. Molllck, the Anarchist baker of Long
Branch, N. J., who was brought to this
city by Roger O'Mara on n chargo of com
plicity in the conspiracy to asaasalnato II.
C. Frick, had a hearing beforo Alderman
Gripp yesterday afternoon and was dis
charged, tho evidence not being deemed
sullicieutto hold him.
A Pittsburg striker, ono of the men
who had gouo out, on tho sympathy strike,
said this morning:
"I can only speak for myself, but I am
tired of this sympathetic business, I can
not see any reason why we men who havo
no grievance nnd no complaint to mako
bhould be obliged to sacrifice dur positions
for tho people of Homestead. I would ho
glad to see them carry their point, but I
Fumiot Beo why I should remain idle for
an indoflulte period to help them fight a
battle that is now hopelessly lost.
"I don't like to play falsa to tho union,
for I ani tuulsr obligations to staiyl by it,
but it is coming to the point whore many
of us nto seriously considering whether
our families have not n greater claim
upon us than the union. I shall consider
tho question carefully, and if my con
science will let me I suall apply for work
to-morroW morning."
TheM) views have been growing moro
nd mere generul for several days past.
Tho company officers said last night
that within ten days all tho departmeutti
would lo running on double time.
Supt. Potter denies the story that thcro
Is smallpox Jn the.milL He says there Is
u physioian "oonstautly In the mUl. and
there is sickness of no kind among the
men. Ho thinks the smallpox story
started wjth two workmon whom he ovur
heard saying that two men had died of
smallpox "and that that man Potter had
buried them in the mill yard.

morning o( July C by tho blOwllig of a
whistle, and hoard shooting. Afterwards,
ho went to tile river bank with about 600
others nnd heard more firing. Some ono
commanded the mon to stop shooting and
It ceased for a while. Shortly afterwards,
ho said, about 20 armed men in blue coat
came out of one of the barges and stood
nt tho bow. One advanced to the gang
plank and called out that they would
land in 15 minutes. Somebody on the
bank cursed the blue-coats and told them
not lo come ashore
Then the leader of tho men on the boat
shot at the crowd, and the firing was re
turned by the mill men. Bealo further
stated tbat at U a. in. the Pllikertons bo
gan picking oil people who stood on tho
bank, anil he became frightened and ran
away. It is not likely that any important
testimony will be brought out to-day.
Coroner McDowell states that ho will
have something to say to the jury, and it
is expected the chargo will be a scathing
one.

Three recesses were taken yesterday far
the purpose of effecting some satisfactory
solution of the question, but nothing was
accomplished, although a oonferenco was
held, attended by about 70 member), Air.
Dockory (Dem.), of Missouri, presiding.
Several propositions wero submitted,
but not entertained, and a committee' of
ten was appointed, five for and five
against the World's Fair appropriation,
to consider the matter and report at a
future meeting.
Thocommltteo Is composed of Mosssrs.
Bnnkhead (Ala.), McMillan (Tenn.), Mc-

Culberson (Tex.), who are opposed to th if
appropriation, and Messrs, Durborrow
fill.), Williams (111.), Fellows (N. Y,),
Kcllly (Pa.), and Shively (Ind.), who
favor ic.
In tho absence of any otlicr businessjthe
Senate yesterday discussed the Homo
stead affair with some warmth and per
sonality, Mr. Hawley (Conn.) in the
course of tho debate taking occasion to
rcmnrk that Mr. Palmer (111.) "needed a
guardian."
At the closo of the discussion a much
modified resolution of Investigation was
adopted providing for a special committee
of seven to investigate the "employment
for private purposes of armed bodies of
men in conupction with differences be
tween workmen and employer" the res
olution not mentioning either Homestead
or the Plnkertons by name.
The speclnl committee Investigating th
charged mado by Representative Watson,
of Georgia, fiat members had been seen
on the iloor o the House to stagger and
reel from drifnkenness, resumed its labors
yesterday.
Representative Clark, of Alabama, tes
tified that the only instance of drunken
ness of members that came within his ob
servation was during the night of the sil
ver debate in tho House, when there was,
according to his idea, one case.
Representative Cobb took tho stand to
make a statement in defense of the
charges brought against him.
Chairman Boatner called the attention
of Mr. Cobb to the chargo in Representa
tive Watson's book, widen, In effect, re
ferred to tho witness, Cobb, as being in a
state of maudlin intoxication while mak
ing nn address to tho House, and said the
committee was ready to hear what tho
witness had to say iu the matter.
Mr. Cobb said that at tho very outset
of his speech during the debate on tho
Noyes-Rockwcll contested election caso he
appoaled to the House nni to interrupt
him, as it was an exciting time iu the
House, and interruptions of previous
speakers bail been numerous. lie made
tho remark that it was difficult to answer
a multiplicity of questions.
Mr. Cobb laid before the committee the
ofllcial stenographer's manuscript of the
address he mado on the occasion men
tioned, and pointed out in it the many in
terruptions which ho had to contend with
during tlio course of his speech. He also
read from the manuscript n long colloquy
which took place between himself null
Representative Watson, and then passed
over tho pago3 of the manuscript until ho
reached the point where, according to
Mr. Watson, he made uso of the words:
"Mr. Speaker, where am I atl"
As the stenographer transcribed tho
phrnso it mado Mr. Cobb say: "Mr
Speaker, where am I in my argument!"
Mr. Cobb continued reading his re
marks, from tho manuscript, and when ho
had concluded said he would submit his
speech to any fair minded man to judge
if it was a maudlin ono.
Ho did not intend to deny that his lan
guage opuld be criticised; lie was not par
ticular as to that. Ho had been continu
ously interrupted, nnd probably tho ad
dress was at times disconnected.
In regard to the liquor matter, Mr. Cobb
said ho would not claim any indulgence
on the ground of being a weakling, as ho
was not. He admitted, however, that ho
wus not as strong ns somo men. The
Noyes-Rockwell contest, continued Mr.
Cobb, was an exciting and, to some extent,
a bitter one.
"For three days preceding tho debate,"
said Mr. Cobb, "I was engaged iu ex
haustive labor on tho cose, in addition to
my other duties ... so that I had
but little rest, and, when I entered tho ar
gument I was not In my usual health."
Mr. Cobb also explained that he had
had an attack of tho grip, which had af
fected hla throat, and, lu order to relieve
it, he hail told an employe to send to his
desk a oup of beef tea, tis he wanted a
warm liquid.
This was done and, from time to time as
he proceeded with his argument, he sent a
page to have the cold liquid changed to
warm, "and froui that olrcumstanoe,"
added Mr. Cobb, "has grown a grout deal
of trouble."
Mr. Cobb took exception to tho testi
mony of Representative Butler given on
Saturday last, which was In substance
thut Mr. Butler hud hoard Mr. Cobb say:
"Sand ine more whiskey,"
"That Us not true," said Jlr. Cobb' em
phatically. "Thorn was brought to mo
during the argument, a little whiskey,
nnd I used it as I would havo done under
th hand of a physician.
"1 sipped it, and if it affected my voice
and manner I was not aware of it, as
was as its sober us I aVer was."
In conclusion Mr. Cobb said he was not
responsible fur the investigation, and had
uotnmg to do with It. He hoped that
when the affair was looked at from drat
to last It would be seen that it was noth
ing more than a repetition of the story of
tho three black crows.
Mr. Watson requested permission to
make a statement in connection with that
made by Judge Cobb. The committee
granted the l'mpuwU Mr. WnUon said ho
had no intention to bring Judge Cobb
into this mutter personally; it was u gen
eral charge.

been called tho Committee dw , l to
