WIDE DIVERGENCE OF OPINION I A Baltimore Physician Tells of Having Caused a Bank Cashier to Steal $45,000 While Hypnotized-Dcadly Bacteria as an instrument of Murder. NEW YoiiK, Sept. 7. At tho medico legal congress Dr. Giblor mid that bacteriology should bo very curef ally considered from n criminal point of view, for biicterln oould bo used more easily and with more cortnin deadly results by murderers than nrsenio, antimony or nny other poison. "Bacteria could bt turned," said lie, "to moro deadly account than dynamite. Any plngiio or disease could bo introduced by tho moro throwing in water or milk of cultivated baccllls. Bacteriologists should keep their cultivations as carefully locked up and un der Avntch as their persons." Tiio afternoon session was opened with tho rending of a paper by Clark Boll on hypnotism in tho courts of law. Mr. Bell sent a letter to sovcrul prominent physi cians, asking: "Can crime bo committed by tho hypno tizcr, tho subject being tho unconscious and Innocent ngent and instrument? If tho subject is unconscious, nnd oven un willing, has tho hypnotlzor such power and domination over tho hypnotized as could control action to tho oxtent of tho commission of a crime? Is it posslblo to rflmovo by hypnotio suggestion from tho mind of tho subject all memory of acta or occurrences which linppen In tho hypnotio stato? Would It bo posslblo for a hypno tlzor to so control a hypnotized subject as to, for example, make him sign a will in tho prosenco of a third person, declare it to bo his will, nnd to request them to sign ns attesting witnesses, nnd bo nftorwnnl wholly unconscious of tho occurrences? Ur a noto of hand or a check?" Replies in tho nffirmntivo were received from several eminent professors, whilo others, conceding that persons in a hyp notio stato nro constantly iimenaulo to con trol by suggestion, denied that hypnotism has nny place In criminal jurisprudence ns a defenso for crlmo. Mr. Bell pointed out thnt it appeared that tho majority of med- leal men in this country did not rocognizo hypnotic trnnco ns an oxlstlng fact. Tho lawyers and judges wero on tho samo ground as tho doctors. In tho countries of Europe tho contrary was the fact, and men of tho highest chnracter and professional attainments devoted their best efforts to its study nnd elueldntlon. As it was witli tho professional men, so it was with tho peoplo. Professor Carl Soxtus, of Chicago, wroto to say that a natural criminal could bo made to do criminal acts under hypnotio inilueuco, but not a person of real moral worth. Dr. William Leo Hownrd, of Baltimore, said that hypnotism was n reality. Ho gavo several instancos of hypnotized per sons in Baltimore, including nis own servant, whom ho sent to a neighboring physician's to steal everything tho doctor had. Ho rostorcd tho fellow whilo ho bad tho nrticlos still in ills possession. Tho doctor confessed it affected tho man's brain Bomowliat, but ho always took caro, oxcept on this occasion, to get tho subject back Into a good mental stato beforo no com pletely restored him. Tho doctor also hypnotized a bank cashier and mado him steal $15,000. Ho performed an operation in tho Johns Hopkins university with tho patient under hypnotio infiuenco. Hyp notism was lnvaluablo ns n corrector of morals. Dr. G rover, of Massachusetts, told of a young lady in Boston who had a tendency to tuberculosis being cured by hypnotio lniluonco.

Both yachts lay calmly In the Horseshoe near Sandy Hook all night chafing under tlio restraint of thoir cables, each bearing with her the lienor and the hopo of a continent. Ono is the proud challenger for tlio most coveted trophy that over was sailed for and tho other lias worthily won her way to tlio ' proud place of defending tho cup that for forty-four years has been the attesting proof of the yachting supremacy of botli tho old and now worlds.

At noon to-day a four-year-old child named Echom was run over by a buggy on North Main street under circumstances that aroused tho indignation of tlio peoplo who witnessed the accident. The child was riding in the carriage with i man named Joseph Holl'inan residing on South Bowers street. HoUman was intoxicated and the horse was on a slow trot with loose lines, practically taking its own course. Tho carriage bounced over ono of the hillocks left by tho work on tho wator works and tho child's hat fell off. Tho child reached out for it just as the carriage bounced over another mound and was thrown beneath the carriage, ono of the rear wheels passing over its stomach! Hotrmau did not realize what was going on until aftor tho child was run over, and then ho pulled up the horse 51. F. Maley, tlio jeweler, and others hastened to tlio child's assistance and uphmided tho man for his carelessness. Tho child was un able to stand but i not thought to bo danger- ously injured. It was placed in tho carriago and HotI'man drove home. Tho child bus been in care of tho mail's family. Hoffman said that he couldn't look after the child and take care of the horse ; which was quite true, as ho appeared quito unable to take caro of either. Tho ouly baby medicine LukB' Syrup. Obituary.
