SERUM SAVES LIFE OF NEW,-YORK GIRL Anti-Toxin of Government Responsi. ble, Not That of Illini Doctor The serum which saved the life of a New York girl, poisoned from ripe olives several weeks ago, was not that discovered by Dr. Robert Graham of the University of, Illinois, but that sent out by the bureau of animaltin- dustry at Washington, declared Dr. Herbert Emerson, .of the Pasteur in- stitute of the University, yesterday af- ternoon. Dr. Graham informed the press of this country a few days ago that he would furnish his serum to be used to combat the latest peril from olIVes, which have been sent out by the Sprague Warner company of Chicago. '"I do not know," said Dr. Emerson, "whether Dr. Graham has discovered lately the type of serum necessary to combat the prevalent olive poisoning. There are two types' of anti-toxins, type A and type B, and the anti-toxin which Graham discovered a few weeks ago was of type B, which is worth- less in the present situation. If he has discovered type A since then, it will prove valuable in the peril which has befallen this country." "It is probable," continued Dr. Em- erson, "that only a few containers in the assignments sent the various towns throughout the country ,will be found to be contaminated, but until it is known definitely to what extent these have been contaminated, none of the suspected brands should be used."
