Berlin, Sept. 3.--Prof. Bier, the dis- tinguished South German who sue ed the. late Prof. Von Bergmann at the head of the surgical faculty of the University of Berlin, has devised a new and remarkable anaesthetic satment for use in operations upon the extremities of the human body. By the application of this treatment, which is describpd as a venous trans- fdsion, surgeons who must operate upen -the legs or arms will no longer administer general anaesthc sia for the purpose of rendering the patient unconscious, but will be en- abled to work in a perfectly bloodless aid painless area, 'while the mind and the rest of the patient's body retain an entirely normal state. As Prof. Bier's discovery was séribod - to the correspondent: of ihe Now York Times; by Dr. John B. Murphy, the well-known Chicago sur geons, will hereafter be able to talk politics or crack jokes with the pa- tient, who will be totally unaware ol anything being done to im. r. Murphy said Prof. Bier had"made an extremely valuable addition to the niethods of anaesthesia. The profes: sor employs for his venous transfusion a very weak solution of cocaine. It is designed, of course, particularly for operations upon the extremities ol persons who cannot stand a general anaesthetic. The cocaine slowly finds its way into all the veins' of the ali fected area, which has previously been blocked offi by tight bandages abovh and below and the operation proceeds in a region totally freed from blood and pain--without the slightest effect on any other portion of the patient's system. To avoid the \ toxication by feason of even this weak solution's spreading into other veins after the removal of the operating bandages, Prof. Bier washes out the veins within the operating. area with a physiological salt solution before re- moving the bandages, de dangers of cocaine in- SE Saved Life By Stooping Head.
