Prof. James Ewing, of the medical wien: | department of Cornell University, dis- cusses in a recent article the cause of cancer, and alter carefully surveying chess | an} the evidence, he discards the para- site theory. He does not deny all re nant tumors, for he finds thdt in one sense certain well-known micro-or- ganisms seem to act as indirect, ex- fiting agents of tumors. For ex- ample, cancer of the stomach is some- times the sequel of an uier, of epithe lioma, of lupus or tuberculosis of the skin. But in the latter case the tubercle bacillus gradually or sudden- ly disappears from the field, and the tumor process continues from its own intrinsic forces. Dr. Ewing, tire fore, infers that external irritants and parasites are concerned only with the 'inception of tumors, and then in- directly, and that there is little or no basis for the theory of a special cancer pArasite and of the necessity by 'a micro-organism throughout the course of g malignant 'tamor. Dr. Ewing vather inclines to the theory of "cell autonomy"--that is, that cer: tain cells of the haman body, under certaip conditions, seem to have an autonomous power of growth and re production, like the cells of the Towest organisms. Some inflapunation which changes the mechanical pressure of cells on each other or the distributing nutrimént, may disturb the balance n this is According to theory the growth bi tissue cells normally controlled 'by the organiza- tion; these cells possess regenerative powers greatly in excess of ordinary needs in ordér to meet extraordinary and' accidental requirements, as from mechanical injuries, and cells exhibit, in response to certain external ditions, tive capacity.
