PREFACE.


It was reported at the time of the Franco-German war that the Prussian
soldiers profited much by their general acquaintance with the geography
of France, and by the possession of convenient pocket maps furnished to
them of the invaded districts.

To supply the combatants in the Anti-Vivisection Crusade with some such
knowledge, and such _cartes du pays_ of the physiologists’ ground, was
the original purpose of the _Vivisectors’ Directory_, as prepared for THE
ZOOPHILIST. It was recognised by those engaged in the thick of the fight
against scientific cruelty that it was impossible to retain in the memory
the names of all, even of the most notorious Vivisectors, or to attach to
them their particular class of experiments; nor, in the case of English
physiologists, was it practicable to recall without continual reference
to the whole series of Parliamentary Returns what were the Licenses and
Certificates wherewith they have been annually provided. These facts,--so
often needed in controversy,--it was proposed to marshal in the
compendious form of a _Directory_, so that each Zoophilist possessed of
a copy should be enabled at a moment’s notice to tell in which province
of the “_doloroso regno_” of Research each Vivisector might be found,
what were his titles and address, and the books he had published; and
(if he were a British subject) how many Licenses and Certificates he had
received.

It is hoped that this original purpose of the _Directory_ has been fairly
fulfilled, and that Anti-vivisectionists will universally find it to be
a very serviceable book of reference. It is not pretended that it is a
perfect work, that the names of all the Vivisectors in Europe have been
ascertained, or their worst deeds always ferreted out. Great pains have
been taken to make the list thus complete, and several able agents have
been employed for the purpose abroad as well as at home, under the
editor’s supervision. But years would have been needed for the exhaustive
completion of the task, and the publication would have been indefinitely
delayed. As it now appears, the _Directory_ presents (it is confidently
believed) a mass of reliable information in a convenient form, and at a
moment when it is urgently needed for use in our sorrowful controversy.

But even while this first purpose of the _Directory_ was being patiently
carried out, it became obvious to those concerned that the work would
fulfil at the same time another and still more important end. As name
after name appeared for registration, and cruel experiment followed
cruel experiment in endless variety, the utility of the _Directory_ as
affording evidence of the extent to which Vivisection is now carried on
in Europe, became revealed. No doubt or dispute, it was obvious, could
possibly attach to _this_ testimony. There can be no question here
of that “exaggeration” or those “sensational appeals” wherewith our
opponents are wont to charge us. There can be no “sensational appeal”
in a Dictionary; nay, care has been taken that there should not be one
single epithet editorially applied to any experiment recorded from first
to last. The _Directory_ is a mere dry Register, like an ordinary Medical
or Clerical Directory of names, dates, places, degrees, books, pamphlets,
licenses, and certificates. Only some _verbatim_ quotations are added,
with exact references to chapter and verse. If these should happen to
convey most damning accusations, it is the Vivisectors themselves who
have registered their own offences.

But it is a sickening revelation, even to those who have for years back
been steeped to the lips in this Dead Sea literature. Few or none will
have realized, we believe, till they look into this Directory as a whole,
how infinitely varied have been the devices of the tormentors of animals,
how relentless the diligence of these explorers of living tissues, these
harpists whose instruments are quivering nerves, these diggers into
living brains who leave them “like lately-hoed potato fields.” Not the
poor humble frogs alone, of which we are wont to hear, but every class
of sensitive and intelligent animal seems to be in turn the victim of
pitiless experiment,--the commonest of all being the most loving servants
of mankind. Not one organ of their beautiful frames but has been chosen
for the explorations of a dozen enquirers, and mangled, burned, torn
out, or inoculated with some horrible disease. The well-known maladies
which result from human drunkenness and vice have been cunningly conveyed
to dogs and apes. The breasts of mother brutes nursing their young have
been cut off, and the mutilated creatures dropped back to die among their
little ones whom they can no longer feed. Pregnant animals have been
continually cut open. An Italian physiologist (Mosso) injects putrified
human brains into animals. The eyes are chosen as the special seats
for inoculation, because, through the transparent body the processes
of disease can be most easily watched. Balbiani varnished the skins of
dogs, so that after long hours in which all exudation was stopped, the
creatures expired--stewed, as it were, in their own blackened blood.
Claude Bernard and Alfred Richet baked them alive in stoves constructed
for that hideous purpose. Paul Bert and Cyon place them under atmospheric
pressures till a dog comes out stiffened all over “like a piece of wood.”
Brown-Séquard and Brondgeest cut the spinal cords of guinea-pigs and
rabbits, and Chauveau opens the spinal canal of horses and irritates
the roots of the nerves. Nasse injects salt into the veins, and Watson
Cheyne injects micrococci into the eyes. Blondlot and Heidenhain
establish fistulas. Aufrecht endeavours to create kidney disease, and
Köbner leprosy. Bacchi and Donders pour acetic acid on the nerves of the
eyes. Audigé, Colin, Miss Adams, Gréhaut, and Gscheidlen, experiment on
various animals with mineral and vegetable poisons; and Fayrer, Brunton,
and Lacerda with that of snakes. The bile ducts of dogs and cats are
ligatured by Wickham Legg and Rutherford. Skulls of monkeys and dogs
are opened and the brains mutilated and stimulated with electricity by
Ferrier, Yeo, Horsley, Schäfer, Goltz, Hitzig, Fritsch, Golgi, Grützner,
Günther Leyden, Hermann, Lovèn, Munk, Longet, Luchsinger, Ott, and
Vulpian; and the stomach, heart, liver and spleen, are cut into and
diversely dissected alive by a whole host of physiologists, Roy, Gaskell,
Lépine, Pellacani, Cohnheim, Marey, Martin, Colasanti, Panum, Moleschott,
and Flint.

When it is remembered that, according to Claude Bernard in his latest
work, we may “take for granted that experiments, when not otherwise
described, are performed on curarized dogs”--that is, on highly
sensitive creatures, placed in a condition which he himself describes
as “accompanied by the most atrocious suffering which the imagination
of man can conceive,”--we have before us in this small _Directory_ a
record of agonies before which the brain grows dizzy and the heart sick.
That any man not utterly science-hardened can contemplate them with
indifference, and refuse to lift his voice against them, is difficult to
understand. He who will look through this little book and then “pass by
on the other side,” might, one would think, have strolled round Nero’s
martyr-lighted gardens and turned unmoved away.

                                                                 F. P. C.

“When by the aid of appropriate means, we suppress in animals the
cutaneous evaporation, and thus absolutely prevent the discharge of
water, vapour, and carbonic acid, grave disorders are set up little by
little, terminating in death. In order thus to suppress the functions of
the skin, it is advisable to lay bare, by means of shaving closely, the
whole of the skin of a dog, sheep, rabbit, or horse, and to cover the
exposed surface with a thick drying varnish. Animals thus treated succumb
at the expiration of various periods, but they rarely survive twelve
hours. After death the tissues and organs are found gorged with black
blood. It is probable that the accumulated carbonic acid has brought on
slow asphyxia. When the pulmonary outlet is sealed up, the asphyxia is
rapid.”--_Traité de Physiologie_, Béclard, Paris, 1880, Vol. I., p. 495.

double function of the spinal nerves, and the most humane vivisector
on record. Among the published accounts of his experiments is the
following:--

“After delaying long on account of the unpleasant nature of the
operation, I opened the spinal canal of a rabbit and cut the posterior
roots of the nerves of the lower extremity--the creature still
crawled--but I was deterred from repeating the experiment by the
protracted cruelty of the dissection. I reflected that the experiment
would be satisfactory if done on an animal recently knocked down and
insensible--that whilst I experimented on a living animal, there
might be a trembling or action excited in the muscles by touching a
sensitive nerve, which motion it would be difficult to distinguish
from that produced more immediately through the influence of the motor
nerves.”--_Nervous System of the Human Body_ (Longman and Co.), 1830, p.
31.

The following extract contains the well-known conclusions of Sir Charles
Bell respecting the utility of Vivisection and its moral aspect:--

“In concluding these papers, I hope I may be permitted to offer a
few words in favour of Anatomy, as better adapted for discovery than
experiment. Anatomy is already looked upon with prejudice by the
thoughtless and ignorant--let not its professors unnecessarily incur
the censures of the humane. Experiments have never been the means of
discovery--and a survey of what has been attempted of late years in
physiology, will prove that the opening of living animals has done
more to perpetuate error than to confirm the just views taken from the
study of anatomy and natural motions. In a foreign review of my former
papers the results have been considered as a further proof in favour of
experiments. They are, on the contrary, deductions from anatomy, and I
have had recourse to experiments not to form my own opinions, but to
impress them upon others. It must be my apology that my utmost efforts
of persuasion were lost, while I urged my statements on the grounds
of anatomy alone. For my own part I cannot believe that Providence
should intend that the secrets of nature are to be discovered by the
means of cruelty, and I am sure that those who are guilty of protracted
cruelties do not possess minds capable of appreciating the laws of
Nature.”--_Ibid._, p. 217.

Circulate the Blood,” Part II., p. 25.

“A physiologist” (Bernard wrote) “is no ordinary man. He is a learned
man, a man possessed and absorbed by a scientific idea. He does not hear
the animals’ cries of pain. He is blind to the blood that flows. He sees
nothing but his idea, and organisms which conceal from him the secrets he
is resolved to discover.”--_Introd. à l’étude_, p. 180.

Baked sixteen dogs and numerous rabbits in a stove. These animals,
Bernard tells us (_Leçons sur la Chaleur Animale_, p. 347), survived
respectively eight minutes, ten minutes, twenty-four minutes, and so on,
according to the heat of the stove and according to the position of their
heads within it, or outside of it. “It became impossible,” he says of
them, “to count the pantings. At last the creature falls into convulsions
and dies--uttering a cry.”

“Our hands without doubt are empty at present, but our mouths may be full
of legitimate promises for the future.”--_Sur le Diabète_, p. 43.

“He thought it would be interesting to experiment upon newborn animals
(cats), which, it is well known, he tells us, resist asphyxia much longer
than full grown ones. (P. 571.) From his apparatus for keeping animals
in compressed oxygen he draws a dog in full convulsions, strong enough
to enable him to carry it by one paw, like a bit of wood. (P. 784.) The
attacks of convulsions, under strong tension of oxygen, are, he says,
really curious and startling.” (P. 799.)--_Pression Barométrique._

“In this experiment a dog was first rendered helpless and incapable
of any movement, even of breathing, which function was performed by a
machine blowing through a hole in its windpipe.” All this time, however,
“its intelligence, its sensitiveness, and its will, remained intact,”
“a condition accompanied by the most atrocious sufferings that the
imagination of man can conceive.” (_Vide_ Claude Bernard in _Revue des
Deux Mondes_, 1st September, 1864, pp. 173, 182, 183, &c.) “In this
condition, the side of the face, the side of the neck, the side of the
fore-leg, interior of the belly and the hip, were dissected out in order
to lay bare respectively the sciatic, the splanchnics, the median, the
pneumo-gastric and sympathetic, and the infra-orbital nerves. These were
excited by electricity for ten consecutive hours, during which time the
animal must have suffered unutterable torment, unrelieved even by a cry.
The inquisitors then left for their homes, leaving the tortured victim
alone with the engine working upon it, till death came in the silence of
the night and set the sufferer free.” (Roy. Com., Q. 4,111.)--_Archives

studying at Munich and Wurzburg, Bezold went to Berlin to study
physiology under Du Bois Reymond; there he became the friend of Isidor
Rosenthal and Wilhelm Kühne. In addition to the study of physiology,
Bezold followed Virchow’s lectures on pathological anatomy and worked
in the laboratory of Hoppe-Seyler, now Prof. of Physiological Chemistry
at Tübingen. He became assistant to Du Bois Reymond, but was soon after
called to the Chair of Physiology at Jena. Bezold’s experiments on the
nervus vagus produced results opposed to the theories of Schiff and
Moleschott. Professor of Physiology at Wurzburg, 1865, where he extended

“Bichat has made, in this respect, an experiment on living animals,
which all physiologists have since repeated. A tube with a turn-cock
is introduced and fixed in the trachea of a dog, and an artery is
subsequently opened in the animal. At first the respiration is allowed
free action; then the turn-cock is shut, respiration is thereby
suspended, and with it the entrance of the air into the lungs. The blood
which issued from the wound in the artery was first red; it becomes
analagous to venous blood. When the turn-cock is again opened, the blood
once more takes a bright hue.”--_Ibid._, p. 336.

=Biondi, Adolfo=, Strada Nuova, Monteoliveto 6. Prof. Pathological
Medicine, Royal University, Naples.

“I cannot imagine that any man in his senses would attempt to remove a
human lung with a tumour in it. It would not be resection of parts of
four ribs which would permit the removal of a tumour sufficiently large
to admit of accurate diagnosis; and I cannot observe, in the literature
just at the moment accessible, that any other kinds of tumours occur in
the lung, save those of hydatid origin, and those of a cancerous nature.
If the tumour were hydatid, the removal of lung would be unnecessary. If
the tumour proved to be an aneurysm, the disaster would be awful.… The
facility with which Dr. Biondi has removed lungs, and parts of lungs,
from dogs, guinea-pigs, cats, fowls, pigeons, and sheep, and the absence
of mortality from such operations, is likely to be a snare rather than
a help. It does not need saying, that the removal of a healthy lung,
collapsed by the introduction of air into the pleura, would be a very
easy matter, and very different from the removal of a diseased and
adherent organ. There would be as much difference as there is between
normal ovariotomy and removal of a pyosalpinx. It is perfectly clear
that these animals, with their deep and narrow chests, differ very much
from us with our wide and shallow cavities, in their power of enduring
the accident of acute pneumothorax; certainly they would differ from us
immensely in the facility with which pneumonotomy may be performed. Their
chests are built for the endurance of the special efforts of great speed,
and we have lost those physical characters; and I venture to say that, if
acute pneumothorax were suddenly inflicted upon sixty-three healthy adult
human beings, death would be the immediate result in the great majority
of the experiments.”--_Lawson Tait, F.R.C.S., Brit. Med. Journ., June 20,
1884._

=Brewer= (Dr.), Norwich, Connecticut, U.S.A.

Dr. Brewer published in the _Detroit Therapeutic Gazette_ for September,
1882, an account of fifty experiments made by him on frogs, kittens,
cats, and dogs, with the liquid extract of _Manaca_ (a Brazilian plant)
which he either exhibited “_per oram_” (to quote literally) or injected
subcutaneously. The experiments were evidently made with great care,
and entailed a good many difficult vivisectional operations, such as
the cutting of the crural and sciatic nerves, the tying of the femoral
artery, the cutting of the spinal cord, and the ablation of the cerebrum.
Great pains were taken, and no fewer than eight experiments were
instituted, for the sole purpose of ascertaining whether Manaca affected
the nerves directly or through the intermediation of the blood, as most
poisons do, prussic acid not excepted.

The following is an experiment of J. P. Brondgeest’s:--“Cut the spinal
cord beneath the bulb, and lay bare the sciatic nerves on each posterior
limb. Cut one of these two nerves, and suspend the creature by the
head. If we then observe the situation of the two limbs, a difference
is perceived, which has been shown to be invariable in sixty-two
experiments. The foot of which the nerve is cut is limp and pendant; that
of which the nerve is intact is slightly bent in all its articulations.
M. Brondgeest made similar experiments on rabbits and birds.… If we
detach by one of its extremities a muscle newly prepared on a living
animal, taking care to preserve its nerve, and attach to the extremity
of this muscle a certain weight, … we shall see that it will augment in
weight.”--_Traité de Physiologie_, Béclard, 1862, pp. 640-41.

“The laying bare of the spinal cord, and its free exposition to the
action of the atmosphere, instead of being a cause or loss or diminution
of sensibility, as it had been said, seems to be followed by a marked
increase of sensibility in the parts of the body which are behind the
place where the cord is exposed.… Deep injuries to the posterior columns
of the spinal cord are always followed by a degree of hyperæsthesia
greater than after the laying bare of the nervous centres--hyperæsthesia
which appeared in all parts of the body behind the place injured.… Before
the operation in rabbits the most energetic pinching of the skin produces
agitation but no shrieking; after the operation, on the contrary the
least pinching produces shrieking and a much greater agitation. Sometimes
the hyperæsthesia is so considerable that the least pressure upon the
skin makes the animal shriek. Whether the operation is performed on the
lumbar, the dorsal, or the cervical region, the phenomena are always
the same--that is, there is manifest hyperæsthesia in the various parts
of the body which receive their nerves from the part of the spinal cord
which is behind the section. It has been so in all the animals I have
operated upon, and I have already made this experiment upon animals
belonging to more than twenty species. As long as the animals live after
the section of the posterior columns, hyperæsthesia continues to exist,
except in the cases where re-union takes place between the two surfaces
of the section; but hyperæsthesia is greater during the first week after
the operation than it is after a month or many months.”--_Brown-Séquard_,

“From observations on human patients we have already learnt that pain
causes movements of the bladder. But we can also demonstrate this fact
experimentally. Not always, but in many instances I have seen that in
curarised animals in whom it is well known the sensibility of the nerves
long outlasts their mobility, that the pressure of the water rose when I
galvanized the trigeminal nerve, that is, if I placed the electrode on
the eye or on the mucous membrane of the nose, or when I irritated the
central end of a nervus vagus, which fact Oehl has also observed (C. r.

His studies were made almost exclusively on horses and asses, who “lend
themselves marvellously thereto by the large volume of their spinal
marrow,” and he “consecrated 80 subjects to his purpose.” “The animal
is fixed on a table; an incision is made on its back of from thirty
to thirty-five centimetres; the vertebræ are opened with the help of
chisel, mallet, and pincers, and the spinal marrow exposed.” No mention
of anæsthetics. Case 7. A vigorous mule. “When one pricks the marrow
near the line of emergence of the sensitive nerves, the animal manifests
the most violent pain.… Case 10. A small ass very thin, pricked on the
line of emergence--_douleur intense_. Case 20. Old white horse lying on
the litter, unable to rise, but nevertheless very sensitive. At whatever
point I scratch the posterior cord, I provoke signs of the most violent
suffering.”--_Journal de Physiologie_, Vol. IV., No. XIII., p. 48.

“Two tubes of serum containing micrococci were obtained from M.
Toussaint, who holds that micrococci are the cause of the disease.
Toussaint obtains the organisms by inoculation of flasks containing
serum, or infusion of rabbit with the blood of tuberculous animals;
and he has in some cases succeeded in producing tuberculosis by the
injection of these cultivations into other animals. The material obtained
from M. Toussaint was injected into three rabbits, two guinea-pigs,
one cat, and one mouse, and of these seven animals six were under
observation for a sufficient length of time for the development at
least of local tuberculosis. In no instance did tuberculosis ensue.
(In all the experiments detailed in this report inoculation was made
into the anterior chamber of the eye whenever this was practicable;
syringes purified by heat were employed for the purpose.) Cultivations
of these micrococci were also made, and injected into nine rabbits, and
three guinea-pigs. Of these, four rabbits and three guinea-pigs were
under observation for a considerable time without the development of
tuberculosis in any case. The total result is that thirteen animals
were inoculated with the micrococci with which Toussaint works, and
obtained from Toussaint himself, and in no case did tuberculosis
occur.”--_Lancet_, March 17, 1883, pp. 444-5.

“_Experiment. V., November 7th, 1882._--Experiment with pus from the

[inflammation of the eye, involving every part of it] resulted and the
animal was ill for some time. It, however, gradually recovered, and in
December was apparently well. It died on January 10th, 1883. Lived 64
days.” (P. 267.)

“_Experiment XIV., November 2nd, 1882._--The bacilli were rubbed up
with boiled distilled water as usual. A little of the pure material was
injected _into the right eyes_ of three rabbits. Into the _left eyes_ the
following materials were injected:--

“No. 1.--One part of the fluid containing bacilli was mixed with one part
of a 1 per 1,000 watery solution of bichloride of mercury. This mixture
was allowed to stand for twelve minutes, and then injected into the left
eye of No. 1.

“_Result in No. 1._--On November 23rd, 1882, it was found there was a
well-developed tubercular iritis [inflammation of the iris--the coloured
part of the eye surrounding the pupil] in the right eye, but apparently
nothing in the left. On December 10th, 1882, the left eye was beginning
to show appearances of tubercular iritis; the right eye become converted
into a caseous [cheese-like] mass. This animal died on January 7th, 1883.

l’Influence du système nerveux sur la chaleur animale,” Paris, 1823.

“… During all the operations, and in a great number of thermometrical
observations, the animal has been placed upon its back, the fore and hind
feet secured to make certain that the body should remain motionless.
This position, which is extremely convenient for the experimenter, is
no doubt far less so for the animal experimented upon.… As Legallois
had affirmed, probably from the results of his own experiments on
rabbits, ‘that by tying an animal down on its back its temperature may
be sufficiently lowered so as even to cause death, if it is kept long
enough in that position,’ I thought I ought to repeat that experiment by
prolonging its duration.”--_Mémoire sur l’Influence du Système Nerveux
sur la Chaleur Animale_, Paris, 1820, pp. 11 and 12.

“After long and conscientious researches, M. Chossat concluded that the
sympathetic nerve is the real heat-producing agent in animals. But if,
after having cut the brain transversely in front of the pons varolis,
after having suppressed all nervous action by a cerebral shock violent
enough to cause death, after having cut both the pneumo-gastric nerves,
after having made various sections of the spinal cord, after having
dissected out the sympathetic nerve above the solary plexus, after having
practised ligature of the aorta below the diaphragm; if after all this,
the temperature of the animals submitted to these mutilations has been
lowered and they have died, notwithstanding that pains were taken to keep
up artificial breathing when natural respiration was becoming impossible,
it cannot be right to affirm that these animals died from the effects of
cold. In the experiments made by M. Chossat, the decreased temperature
was evidently the consequence and not the cause of death.”--Gavarret,
Art. “_Chaleur Animale_” _Dict. des Sciences Médicales_, Vol. XV., 1874,
p. 27.

“M. Chossat and M. Strelzoff (very recently) have made experiments on
pigeons, turtle-doves, hens, guinea-pigs, rabbits, and cats, and have
arrived at this result--that the animals die when they have lost in
weight thirty per cent., that is to say, one-third of their original
weight.”… “M. Chossat subjected twelve animals to complete deprivation
of food and drink, and abandoned them thus until they died. He examined
them all every twenty-four hours at noon and at midnight.”--Gavarret’s

Made experiments, in conjunction with Prof. Roy (_whom see_) “to
elucidate a number of questions bearing upon the relation which exists
between certain diseases of the kidney and cardiac hypertrophy.”

“If we now try to explain the striking phenomena which so invariably
accompany our experiments, it is quite impossible not to conclude from
the outset that they are the result of the closing of the coronary
artery. It is quite true that less frequent beating of the heart, and
even irregularities of the pulse, may occur spontaneously, and certainly
without ligature of the coronary artery. Any one who has made frequent
experiments on dogs in which the pressure of the blood has been noted
down during a long period, knows very well that intermittent pulsation,
and even greater irregularities, are not unfrequent occurrences in
narcotised and bound or curarised animals--irregularities which disappear
or re-appear, as the case may be. But the sudden ceasing of the diastolic
beating of the heart may also occasionally be observed in dogs whose
coronary arteries have not been touched. However, this only happens
spontaneously (according to our experience) in dogs which have already
been used for a long succession of experiments, which have resulted
in the natural alteration of the action of the heart, and in whom the
arterial pressure has been lowered to a great degree, more especially
when for hours the thorax has been open, and experiments have been made
on the greater vessels, or the functions of the heart, or on pericardial
pressure, etc.… However, there can be no question that the manipulations
of the heart, which are inseparable from our experiments, should be the
cause of this result.” … (Here M. Cohnheim makes this naif remark), “Many
observers have expressed surprise at the amount of pain which a dog’s

Made experiments with curare at the Physiological Institute at Bonn. “…
For these experiments we used middle-sized dogs, with well developed
muscles and little fat. The method of preparing them for the desired
experiments was as follows:--The dog was fastened on to the vivisection
table. The abdomen was opened by a long cut in the linea alba from the
sternum to the symphysis oss. pub.; to the right and left of the linea
alba the muscles of the skin and abdomen were cut across and separated,
so as to leave space for the preparation of the aorta abdominalis and
the vena cava ascendens. Both these vessels were dissected out of their
sheaths, and the threads required for binding the canula passed under the
artery. While the animal bleeds to death a canula, which is intended to
supply defibrinised blood, is fixed into the aorta.…”--“_Zur Kenntniss

de l’espace,” Paris, 1878; Bibl. de l’École des Hautes Études, section
des Sciences Nat., Vol. XVIII., Art. 1--(Experiments on pigeons, dogs,
rabbits, and lampreys made in the laboratory of Claude Bernard.)

Experimented in his private Laboratory at St. Petersburg in 1874; also in
Ludwig’s Laboratory at Leipsig; in his own Laboratory, and that of Claude
Bernard, at Paris. To observe the action excited by barometrical pressure
upon the organism, he placed animals in the iron cylinder invented by
Paul Bert, but improved upon the latter in such a way that the arteries
of the animal were brought into communication with a manometer placed
outside, and the nerves of the animal could be acted upon by an electric
current.

… “The effect of such a division of the semi-circular canals is
appalling. It is impossible to convey any exact idea of the unceasing
movements of the pigeon; it can neither stand, nor lie down, nor fly,
nor perform any systematic movements whatever, nor retain for an instant
even any position in which it may be placed.…. To keep alive pigeons
which have been thus operated upon I have wrapped them in a napkin, so
as to prevent even oscillations of the head. Thus pinioned I placed
them in a hammock, specially constructed for pigeons having had the
semi-circular canals severed. Notwithstanding these precautions, it has
frequently happened that I have found the pigeons dead in a corner of
the laboratory.… So violent were the muscular contractions, that though
enfolded in a napkin, the pigeons still managed to throw themselves out
of the hammock, and roll on to the ground till fatal injuries to the
brain ended their sufferings.”--“Functions des canaux,” etc.; _Bibl. de
l’École des Hautes Études, Section des Sciences Naturelles_, Vol. XVIII.,
pp. 45-46.

“The medical man who speaks with horror of the torture of animals in
physiological experiments, will do well to remember how often he has
prescribed most repulsive, and not always safe treatment for a patient,
in order to obtain some insight into how it was likely to act. Many a
surgical operation is performed, _less for the benefit of the patient
than for the service of science;_ and the utility of the knowledge
aimed at thereby is often _much more trifling_ than that attained by
Vivisection of an animal.”--_Methodik_, p. 8.

“The true vivisector must approach a difficult vivisection with the
same joyful excitement, with the same delight, with which a surgeon
undertakes a difficult operation, from which he expects extraordinary
consequences. He who shrinks from cutting into a living animal, he who
approaches a vivisection as a disagreeable necessity, may very likely be
able to repeat one or two vivisections, but will never become an artist
in vivisection. He who cannot follow some fine nerve-thread, scarcely
visible to the naked eye, into the depths, if possible sometimes tracing
it to a new branching, with joyful alertness for hours at a time; he
who feels no enjoyment when at last, parted from its surroundings and
isolated, he can subject that nerve to electrical stimulation; or
when, in some deep cavity, guided only by the sense of touch of his
finger-ends, he ligatures and divides an invisible vessel--to such a
one there is wanting that which is most necessary for a successful
vivisector. The pleasure of triumphing over difficulties held hitherto
insuperable is always one of the highest delights of the vivisector.
And the sensation of the physiologist, when from a gruesome wound, full
of blood and mangled tissue, he draws forth some delicate nerve-branch,
and calls back to life a function which was already extinguished--this
sensation has much in common with that which inspires a sculptor,
when he shapes forth fair living forms from a shapeless mass of
marble.”--_Methodik_, 1876, p. 15.

“The description given by Cyon of the method of operation (_Methodik_,
p. 510) is as follows: ‘The rabbit is firmly fastened to the ordinary
vivisecting table by means of Czermak’s holder. Then the rabbit’s
head is held by the left hand, so that the thumb of that hand rests on
the condyle of the lower jaw. This is used as a _point d’appui_ for
the insertion of the knife.… To reach the hollow of the temple the
instrument must be guided forward and upward, thus avoiding the hard
portion of the temporal bone and leading the knife directly into the
cranial cavity.… The trigeminus then comes under the knife. Now holding
the head of the animal very firmly, the blade of the knife is directed
backwards and downwards, and pressed hard in this direction against the
base of the skull. The nerve is then generally cut behind the Gasserian
ganglion, which is announced by a violent cry of agony (_einen heftigen
Schmerzensschrei_) of the animal.’”

“When I published my treatise on physiological methods and the art of
vivisection four years ago, several of my colleagues of the English
Universities entreated me not to announce my work in any of the English
newspapers, as they feared that public opinion might be still more
aroused.”--Letter to the _Gaulois_, December, 1881.

“… It occurred to me that the artificial exposure of the brains of
living animals might afford opportunity for more definite observation
and further inquiry. With this idea I made numerous experiments and
observations.… It was suggested to me that the perforation of the skull
placed its contents in an unusual condition with regard to atmospheric
pressure, and that thus an unnatural state of the circulation might be
induced.… To obviate this and other possible objections, I replaced
the portions of bone removed by accurately fitting watch glasses, and
rendered the junction of their edges with the bone air-tight, by means
of inspissated Canada balsam.… I satisfied myself of the accuracy of
these observations by repeated experiments upon different animals. My
experiments upon dogs were the most satisfactory; those upon rabbits
least so.”--From “_Physiology of Sleep_” Guy’s Hospital Reports, Vol.
VI., 1860, p. 153, &c.

“The method employed by Donders and Ehrmann was the same as that
employed by Durham in the experiments he made upon animals to verify the
observations of Blumenbach, Caldwell, and others, on human patients.”…
“The results obtained by physiological experimentation, to prove that
sleep is accompanied by cerebral congestion, according to some, and
according to others by cerebral anemia, are not more valuable than the
results of clinical observation. Firstly, the animals upon which the
experiments have been made have been wounded more or less severely, and
thereby both excitement and pain have been caused; all have, therefore,
necessarily been placed under pathological conditions. It is impossible
to wound the head and open the skull without causing a severe shock to
the system of the animals, and a more or less violent irritation of the
brain; that is to say, not without producing a certain amount of pain.
And we know the influence that pain can have, not only on the functions
of the great organic apparatus (circulation, respiration, animal heat),
but also on the anatomical and physiological state of the nerve centres.
Another influence which, according to our idea, very considerably
diminishes the value of the results of physiological investigation, is
that sleep has always been produced by narcotics and anæsthetics in the
animals submitted to experimental observations.”… “We conclude from
this study that the real state of cerebral circulation, during natural
sleep, does not seem to have been arrived at, notwithstanding the great
number of observations and experiments lately made on this interesting
subject.”--DR. MARVAUD, _Gazette Médicale de Paris_, 1878 (p. 81-2).

“Professor Ellenberger, of Dresden, cut through the facial nerves of five

so exhausted that even this operation made little impression on them.
Claude Bernard once made the same operation on a horse, and gave as
the result that the nostrils are no more capable of opening, and thus
the animals die of suffocation, since they breathe only through the
nostrils. This explanation has been hitherto accepted but is now disputed
by Ellenberger, who maintains that there is no danger for animals so
operated on if kept quiet, but only if they exert themselves, and he
recommends if paralysis of these nerves occurs, as is not unfrequently
the case, that one shall leave the cure to natural means.”--_Archiv. f.

“After careful consideration, fully admitting that in permanganate of
potash we have an agent which can chemically neutralize snake-poison,
I do not see that more has been done than to draw attention to a local
remedy already well known as a chemical antidote, the value of which
depends on its efficient application to the contaminated part (which Dr.
Wall has pointed out is too uncertain to be reliable). We are still,
then, as far off an antidote as ever, and the remarks made by me in 1868
are as applicable now as they were then. They were as follows:--‘To
conceive of an antidote, as that term is usually understood, we must
imagine a substance so subtle as to follow, overtake, and neutralise
the venom in the blood, and that shall have the power of counteracting
or neutralising the poisonous or deadly influence it has exerted on
the vital force. Such a substance has still to be found, nor does our
experience of drugs give hopeful anticipations that we shall find
it.’”--_Sir J. Fayrer_, “_Address to Medical Society of London_,”

Made experiments at Wakefield in regard to the examination of various
parts of the skull.--_Ev. Roy. Com._, p. 169.

(Q. 3326.) “I should allow everybody liberty to perform experiments
in his own private laboratory. A great many experimenters live in the
country, and have no access to a public laboratory, and that would
entirely prevent them from carrying on research.--(3327.) Do you think
that there are many such persons? Yes.--(3328.) And who are practising in
their own laboratories, and unconnected with medical schools do you mean?
I used to do so when I lived in the country, in Suffolk, at Bury St.
Edmunds. I performed experiments there for my own purposes of research.”

…

(3331.) “Then you experiment at your own house as well as at King’s
College, do you? Yes; it would interfere with my professional work
if I were obliged to go such a distance from home to perform my
experiments.”--_Ibid._, p. 173.

(3245.) “Now with regard to original research, how would you express
yourself on that subject? I should say, that, wherever it is possible to
avoid the infliction of pain on animals subjected to experiments, the
means should be adopted either by chloroform or ether, or opium or other
anæsthetic; but that where the administration of an anæsthetic would
prejudice the object for which the experiment was conceived, that the
experiment is still justifiable, notwithstanding the fact that it might
inflict a certain amount of pain on the animal.”--_Ibid._, p. 170.

“The interest attaching to the discussion was greatly enhanced by the
fact that Professor Ferrier was willing to exhibit two monkeys which he
had operated upon some months previously.… In striking contrast to the
dog were two monkeys exhibited by Professor Ferrier. One of them had been
operated upon in the middle of January, the left motor area having been
destroyed. There had resulted from the operation right-sided hemiplegia”
(paralysis of the right half of the body) “with conjugate deviation of
the eyes and head” (eyes and head permanently twisted). “Facial paralysis
was at first well marked, but ceased after a fortnight. From the first
there had been paralysis of the right leg, though the animal was able to
lift it up. The arm it never had been able to use. Lately, rigidity of
the muscles of the paralyzed limb had been coming on. The other monkey,
as a consequence of paralysis of all auditory centres, was apparently
entirely unaffected by loud noises, as by the firing of percussion caps
in close proximity to the head.”--_Lancet’s_ Report of the Proceedings at
the International Medical Congress, Oct. 8, 1881.

“Exper. IV., June 18th, 1873.--The right hemisphere of a monkey had been
partially exposed and experimented on for the purpose of localising the
region of electric stimulation. The part exposed included the ascending
parietal and postero-parietal convolutions, the ascending frontal, and
the posterior extremities of the three frontal convolutions. After
having been under experimentation for eight hours, the animal recovered
sufficiently to sit up and take food. The wound was sewn up, and the
animal placed in its cage.

“June 19th.--The animal is apparently as well as ever, eating and
drinking heartily, and as lively and intelligent as before. No change was
perceptible during the whole of this day.

“June 20th.--The wound was oozing, and the animal was less active; but
there was no diminution of sensation or voluntary motion. It closely
watched flies buzzing about, and frequently made attempts to catch
them. Towards the afternoon it began to suffer from choreic spasms of
the left angle of the mouth and of the left hand. There was no loss
of consciousness. The animal was apparently annoyed by the spasmodic
actions of its mouth, and frequently endeavoured to still them by holding
its mouth with the other hand. Towards the close of the day the spasms
frequently repeated, became more intense, and exhibited an epileptic
nature, the convulsions on the left side of the body becoming general.
This state continued till.…

“June 23rd.--…

“June 24th.--Hemiplegia is complete on the left side, hand, foot, and
face. The animal moved by means of its left limbs, dragging the right
after it.

“The animal died from exhaustion on the 27th.”--_Croonian Lecture_,
“_Experiments on the Brain of Monkeys_,” Philos. Trans., 1875, pp. 441-42.

“Exper. XVI., Feb. 5th, 1875.--This, though not successful as regards
the object intended, yet presents some interesting phenomena. The left
occipital lobe was exposed posteriorly, and penetrated at the posterior
extremity of the superior occipital fissure by means of hot wires,
which were directed with a view to follow the inner aspect of the
temporo-sphenoidal lobe. There was no hæmorrhage from the sinus. During
the operation, the animal was observed to make sighing respiration. The
operation was finished at 4.30 p.m. The animal lay in a state of stupor
for more than an hour, only making slight movements when disturbed, and
then with its left limbs.

“7 p.m.--The animal lies quiet, but indicates consciousness by grunting
discontentedly when moved. Struggles with its limbs, chiefly the left,
but occasionally with the right. On testing the cutaneous sensibility
with the hot iron, reaction was decisive over the whole of the left
side, but quite abolished in the right. The animal occasionally opened
its right eye, but the left remained permanently closed. The animal
passed into a state of coma, and was found dead at 11.30 p.m. The
following experiment is a repetition of the last, and was only partially
successful.”--_Ibid._, p. 464.

“These ganglia (corpora quadrigemina) were subjected to experimentation
in the following seven cases, viz., V., VI., VIII., IX., X., XII., XIII.,
with the results:--

“V. In this case the exploration was not sufficiently definite, as the
exact position of the electrodes was not observed, and death occurred
before a more careful exploration could be made. The application of
the electrodes to the ganglia on the left side, caused the animal to
utter various barking, howling, or screaming sounds of an incongruous
character. The head was drawn back and to the right, and the right
angle of the mouth was strongly retracted while the stimulation
was kept up. The tail was raised and the limbs were thrown into
contortions, but nothing further was ascertained as the animal died from
hæmorrhage.”--_Ibid._, p. 429.

“Experiments on the lower animals, even on apes, often lead to
conclusions seriously at variance with well-established facts of clinical
and pathological observation.… The decisive settlement of such points
must depend mainly on careful clinical and pathological research.…
Experiments have led to different views in different hands.”--Ferrier
(_Functions of the Brain_, Preface).

“Physiological experiments conducted in these regions are most
indefinite. The usual plan of investigation, viz., that of applying
stimuli to the brain substance, leads either to negative results, or,
if electrical stimulation is used, to results which, owing to the
unavoidable dispersal of the currents in numerous directions, are not
sufficiently localised to form the basis for trustworthy conclusions. In
place of exact observations after section and stimulation of different
regions, we have here the far less refined method of observation after
lesions--lesions induced in the most delicate and complicated organ
of the body by means so absurdly rough that, as Ludwig has forcibly
put it, they may be compared to injuries to a watch by means of a
pistol-shot. The results obtained in this way are attributable to the
most diverse causes; for, apart from the fact that it is impossible to
localise the lesion itself, the results may be due to irritation of
centres, paralysis of centres, stimulation of conducting apparatus, or
paralysis of conducting apparatus, without our being able to say which.
Hence the interpretation of even those phenomena which are constant
in their occurrence is always uncertain. The third and best method of
investigation which is possible is the observation of cases of disease
in which the exact nature of the lesions is accurately ascertained after
death.”--_Hermann’s Human Physiology_, translated by Professor Gamgee,
London, 1878. (Chapter on the Functions of the Encephalon), p. 444.

“We have long been in the habit, in class demonstrations, of removing the
optic lobe on one side from a pigeon.… The experiment of dividing the
sympathetic in the neck, especially in rabbits, is so easily performed
that the phenomena observed by Bernard and Brown-Séquard have been
repeatedly verified. We have often done this in class demonstrations.”
“The cerebral lobes were removed from a young pigeon in the usual way,
an operation … which we practice yearly as a class demonstration.” “Our
own experiments, which have been very numerous during the last fifteen
years, are simply repetitions of those of Flourens, and the results have
been the same without exception.” We have frequently removed both kidneys
from dogs and when the operation is carefully performed the animals live
from three to five days.“--Dr. Flint’s _Report to the Medical Congress_,
August, 1881.

“It is not desirable to administer an anæsthetic, and it is much
more satisfactory to divide the nerve without etherising the animal,
as the evidence of pain is an important guide in this delicate
operation.”--_Text-Book_, p. 641.

Speaking of an experiment by which an animal was caused to vomit from a
pig’s bladder which had been substituted for a stomach, Dr. Flint says in
his “_Physiology of Man_,” Vol II., p. 300:--“These experiments were made
simply for class demonstrations, and have never before been published.”

Made numerous experiments on ruminating animals, on rabbits, on the
brains of fishes, and on the semi-circular canals of the brains of ducks,
fowls, and pigeons.

“The description given by Flourens of the phenomena resulting from the
section of the semi-circular canals in rabbits, is almost entirely
inaccurate.”--Cyon, “_Fonctions des canaux semi-circulaires_,” Bibl. de
l’École des Hautes Études, Paris, 1879, p. 51, note 2.

“Flourens supported his bold hypothesis almost solely by experiments on
pigeons and other inferior animals. The few experiments on mammals, which
he mentions, are very meagrely described and of trifling value.”--Goltz,

“I heard M. Flourens, in one of his lectures, state the
following:--‘Majendie sacrificed 4,000 dogs to establish the distinctions
of the sensory and the motor nerves according to Charles Bell; then he
sacrificed 4,000 more dogs to prove that he had made a mistake. I,’ added
M. Flourens, ‘had to continue the experiments, and I have proved that
Majendie’s first opinion was correct; the reflex motions, which he did
not quite understand, had caused his doubts. To arrive at this result,
I also have had to sacrifice a great number of dogs.’”--Blatin, _Nos

“It is not without historical interest that Dr. Wilson Fox has formally
confessed his belief in the fallacies of his former experiments, and
basing this opinion upon the results of a careful series of similar
investigations carried out, at his request, by Dr. Dawson Williams, in
Dr. Burdon-Sanderson’s laboratory, he has expressed his belief in the
specific nature of the tubercular virus. Dr. Fox has found, on repetition
of his former experiments, that any injury to rodents does not cause
tubercle, but that it is only produced by the inoculation of tubercular
material.”--_Brit. Med. Journ._, Dec. 29th, 1883, p. 1298.

“(Q. 5412.) (Viscount Cardwell.) You are of opinion that in inflicting
operations, in themselves very painful, upon living animals, curare ought
not to be trusted as taking away sensibility to pain? I should think
not. I would add this: I do not believe that physiologists use it for
that purpose. It is used in order to eliminate a series of fallacies
which obtrude themselves in physiological experiments.”--_Ev. Roy. Com._,

Ohrlabyrinths,” Pflüger’s Archiv., Vol. III., p. 172.

“I owe the fundamental idea of my method of experimentation to the memory
of my experience as prosector at Königsberg. I have often dissected out
the arteries of the brain filled with torpid matter.… I resolved to try
whether it would be possible to rinse out the living brain and spare the
larger veins. The very first effort was so successful that it encouraged
me to proceed, and that was the origin of this work.… All my experiments
were made on dogs which I chloroformed before the operation. To bare
the skull, I generally made first a cut in the centre and separated the
skin on one side, so that the muscles of the temples were visible. Then
according to the experiment I wished to make, a portion of the muscle was
cut away to expose the place in the bone where the hole was to be bored.
According to the requirements of the case, one, two, or still more holes
were bored, and after making a cut in the head skin, the brain matter
was rinsed out. I generally used spring water, heated to the temperature
of the blood.… At all events till now, as far as my knowledge of the
literature of this subject goes, no one has succeeded in making such
extensive destruction of the brain and still preserving life. I have
succeeded in a series of experiments made at different intervals, in so
seriously injuring one hemisphere, that all the circumvolutions that
touched the skull had disappeared. The animal lived for weeks with its
crippled brain, and served for many observations.”--_Verrichtungen des
Grosshirns_, pp. 3-8. (A work dedicated to his “English Friends.”)

“It is not often that two physiologists agree in matters relating to the
physiology of the brain.”--_Ibid._, p. 9.

“I do not by any means claim that my researches can be of any value in
themselves for the pathology of the human brain. Let the pathologists
continue steadily to collect facts, then the apparent contradictions
between the experiments on animals and the observations at the bedside
will soon be reconciled.”--_Ibid._, p. 176.

“The fact that both in tortoises and in toads, the extirpation of the
cerebellum and the superior two-thirds of the bulbus _does not abolish_
the sense of equilibrium, proves that the too widely generalised theory
of Goltz which localises this sense in the cerebellum, as also that of
Vulpian, who in the inferior vertebrates, places the seat of this sense
in the part corresponding to the annular protuberance of the superior
vertebrates, are both equally inexact.--Florence, June, 1883.”--FANO,
“_Recherches expérimentales sur un nouveau centre automatique dans le
tractus bulbo-spinal._”--_Arch. ital. de Biol._, Vol. III., p. 368.

“It is self evident, that Goltz’s experience, when quoted against
the localizations of functions in the cortex of the brain is of no
worth.”… (p. 11). “Professor Goltz’s assumption that irritation sets up
inhibitory processes, having their seat in the cerebrum, which cause,
through paralysis of certain centres situated in the cerebellum and its
connections, all the non-permanent disturbances,--this assumption is
inadmissible” (p. 13).--Munk, _Ueber die Functionen der Grosshirn-Rinde._

“After I had laid bare the bone behind the ear of the pigeon, I bored
out, bit by bit, with the help of a sharp hollow chisel, the ear
labyrinths on both sides of the head. The bleeding caused by this
operation is very considerable. In those cases where I endeavoured
to destroy entirely both labyrinths, the birds died soon after the
operation with violent rolling movements or somersaults. For this reason
I afterwards contented myself with breaking out pieces of the superficial
canals. Many of the thus injured birds I have kept alive a long time, and
especially two which I had operated upon half a year ago, and which I
exhibited at the Congress of Naturalists at Innspruck on 21st September,
1869.”--Pflüger’s _Archiv._, Vol. III., pp. 177-78.

“The sanguinary part of the operation begins with the insertion of the
cannula to supply artificial respiration. Then the right carotid artery
is dissected out. Afterwards, while artificial respiration is being
set up, a square opening is made in the left wall of the chest with a
knife and the bone scissors. The opening is extended far into the right
pleural cavity, and widened downwards till it reaches the diaphragm
which is severed from the ribs. It is best to make the opening in the
chest large enough to avoid any pressure on the heart from the lungs or
other neighbouring parts. The pericardium is opened wide so that the
greatest possible surface of the heart may be exposed to the action of
the atmospheric air. After this sanguinary preparation the catheter is
introduced from the right carotis into the aorta, and from thence to
the left ventricle of the heart. As soon as it has reached this point
(which fact can be ascertained by feeling the exposed heart) the stopper
(of the instrument previously described) is withdrawn. The next systole
sends a powerful stream of blood into the catheter, which is immediately
checked by fixing the gutta percha end of the previously set manometer
on this conducting catheter. Now begins the observation which richly
repays the tedious and bloody preparation. The heart pumps out the
manometer with surprising rapidity.… We have repeated this experiment six
times.”--“_Ueber die Druckverhältnisse im Innern des Herzens_,” Pflüger’s

and with a long india-rubber catheter introduced into the vena cava
inferior, drew out 30 centimetres of blood, put it into a flask and
defibrinised it by agitating it a few minutes. The animal’s head was then
placed in a gutta percha muzzle communicating with the top of the balloon
containing the oxide of carbon, and the animal was allowed to breathe
into it for half-an-hour. During the last two minutes a second quantity
of blood was taken from the vena cava and defibrinised; then the animal
was allowed to breathe in the air, and half-an-hour later a third sample

Made experiments jointly with L. Brück on the influence of lesions of
certain portions of the brain on animal heat.--Pflüger’s _Archiv._, 1870,
p. 578.

“… I requested the students, Messrs. Brück and Günther, to repeat the
experiments of Tscheschichin and Sewitzky.… The animals were, as in
previous experiments, rabbits. The lesions were invariably made through
the unopened skull.… Out of 23 experiments, 11 gave positive, and 12
negative results. These experiments have given us the following facts
for further study:--The division of the brain between the pons varolis
and the medulla oblongata may produce heightened temperature. Seven
experiments of this section were made; in two only the results were
as above; but in these two cases the evidence was in a high degree
satisfactory. In four cases the temperature sank after the operation;
in one the action was so positive that the temperature of the animal
which had been bound for seven hours did not sink any lower after the
operation, which it is well known generally happens.”--Heidenhain,
Pflüger’s _Archiv._, Vol. III., pp. 579-80.

Made experiments on the physiological action of animal poisons, on dogs,
cats, and frogs.

“The experiments were performed at University College, in the presence of
my colleagues, Professors Sharpey, Ellis, and Williamson.… A large dog
was bitten by one of the snakes over the right eye.… In three minutes
the dog became very restless, and gave a low whine as if of pain. After
moving about the room for ten minutes searching for a comfortable place
to lie down on, he placed himself in the coolest part of the chamber, and
laid his head on the cold stones, as if to relieve headache. He moaned
as if in distress.… As the effects of the poison passed away, the pulse
gradually recovered.… The serpent was once more allowed to bite him. The
same train of symptoms again appeared, but in a more intense degree, and
within twenty-five minutes he had become insensible.… Half an hour after
being bitten the second time, convulsive twitchings began to appear in
the fore limbs and muscles of the neck. In ten minutes more the whole
body became convulsed. The limbs were stretched out and the head jerked
backwards.… In two hours and a quarter the animal appeared to be dead,
but on making an incision into the thorax, he gave a gasp. After waiting
some time without observing any further sign of life, another incision
was made, when he again gasped, but only once.”--“_On the influence of

“The following observations, in so far as they relate to temporary
fistula, were made in the summer of 1872; … those relating to permanent
fistula belong principally to a series of experiments made with the
students, Messrs. Jastrow, Langondorff and Körner. The principal results
of both series proved that the secretion of the pancreas if arrested
may be made to _continue_; or if present may be rendered more active.
However, I must at once observe that the disturbances, the causes of
which are still unknown to us, which almost invariably render useless all
experiments on the pancreas, were also often present in those I am about
to describe.…

“The experiments were invariably made on curarised animals. In such
cases we have noticed the striking fact when the rapidity of secretion
had been measured before and after curarisation, there was always
a diminution during the curare anæsthesia, in contradiction to the
result of Bernstein’s experiments; in which the secretion increased
under the influence of the poison.” “_Beiträge zur Kenntniss der
Pancreas._”--Pflüger’s _Archiv._, Vol. X., pp. 606-607.

Permanent fistula of the stomach established in dogs, then they were

“Our experiments were intended to decide how far the objection raised on
several sides was justified, that the results of the experiments made by
Fritsch and Hitzig on the cortex of the cerebrum did not arise from the
excitation of the cortex itself, but of the more internal parts.… The
experiments were made during the summer term of 1874, all on middle-sized
dogs, and were carried out successfully.… There were only six; as the
results were all the same, there was no reason to make more of these
cruel experiments.… I conclude with the remark that the experiments of
Fritsch and Hitzig, however interesting and precious they may be, do not
justify any conclusions concerning the functions of the cortex.”--“_Ueber

to allow the N. splanchnicus to be dissected out. This nerve, he states,
is easier to find in a small, thin male rabbit after it has been kept
fasting for 24 hours. Subsequent to this the nerve was acted upon by a Du
Bois Reymond’s apparatus. The animals invariably died after a period of
from one to five hours.

“If the vessels of a limb of a living animal be tied in such a manner as
to cut off the supply of blood from the limb, without affecting it in any
other way, all the symptoms of death will set in. The limb will grow pale
and cold, it will lose its sensibility and volition, the animal will no
longer have power over it; it will stiffen, and eventually mortify and
decompose.”--_Ibid._, p. 74.

“If in a living animal, the anterior roots of a spinal nerve be cut,
the animal loses all control over the muscles to which that nerve is
distributed, though the sensibility of the region of the skin supplied by
the nerve is perfect.… On the other hand, if the end of the sensory root
connected with the trunk be irritated, no apparent effect is produced,
while, if the end connected with the cord be thus served, violent pain
immediately follows.”--_Ibid._, p. 268.


=Israel, James.= M.D.; Chief Phys., Jewish Hosp., Berlin.

“On the 26th of March this year (1883), I inserted a small portion of
infected tissue out of the peripleural abscess of a patient suffering
from primary aktinomykosis of the lungs through an incision into the
abdomen. The rabbit showed no symptoms of illness during life; the
patient died.… The rabbit was killed June 12th, 1883. In the abdomen
were found a number of swellings from the size of a cherry to that of
a grain of hemp seed.… This gives the first proof of the possibility
of transmitting aktinomykosis from man to animals.… Evidently the
rabbit is not a very favourable subject for the development of this
disease.”--_Centralblatt für die Med. Wiss._, No. 27, July 7th, 1883, p.

“Experiment I., July 24, 1882. Morphium injected into the vein in the
front paw of a large dog. Complete narcosis followed immediately. Both
hind feet were bound tightly together with an india-rubber band and
immersed in water warmed to 70 degrees. The feet were held under the
water about two minutes till the hair could be easily pulled out of the
skin; then they were taken out of the water and untied. After this, the
Nervus ischiadicus on the right side was cut through. About half-an-hour
afterwards both feet showed signs of inflammation. They began to swell
rapidly, and pustules filled with transparent matter appeared between
the toes. On both sides the lymph vessels were now dissected out, and
armed with cannulæ. To excite the flow of lymph the legs were pumped up
and down every ten minutes for about five minutes at a time.… Two hours
after this experiment the dog died, probably from the excessive dose
of morphium injected.”--“_Ueber die Beudetung der Gefässnerven für die

(_Chairman_) (3,538): What is your own practice with regard to the
use of anæsthetics in experiments that are otherwise painful? (_Dr.
Klein_): Except for teaching purposes, for demonstration, I never use
anæsthetics where it is not necessary for convenience. If I demonstrate,
I use anæsthetics. If I do experiments for my inquiries in pathological
research, except for convenience sake, as for instance on dogs and cats,
I do not use them. On frogs and the lower animals I never use them.
(3,539). When you say that you only use them for convenience sake, do you
mean that you have no regard at all to the sufferings of the animals?--No
regard at all. (3,540.) You are prepared to establish that as a principle
which you approve?--I think that with regard to an experimenter, a man
who conducts special research, and performs an experiment, he has no
time, so to speak, for thinking what will the animal feel or suffer.
His only purpose is to perform the experiment, to learn as much from
it as possible, and to do it as quickly as possible. (3,541.) Then for
your own purposes you disregard entirely the question of the suffering
of the animal in performing a painful experiment.--I do. (3,542.) Why
do you regard it then when it is for a demonstration?--Because I know
that there is a great deal of feeling against it in this country, and
when it is not necessary, one should not perhaps act against the opinion
or the belief of certain individuals of the auditorium. One must take
regard of the feelings and opinions of those people before whom one does
the experiment. (3,543.) Then am I wrong in attributing to you that you
separate yourself entirely from the feeling which you observe to prevail
in this country in regard to humanity to animals?--I separate myself
as an investigator from myself as a teacher. (3,544.) But in regard to
your proceedings as an investigator, you are prepared to acknowledge
that you hold as entirely indifferent the sufferings of the animal which
is subjected to your investigation?--Yes. (3,546.) Do you believe that
that is a general practice on the Continent, to disregard altogether the
feelings of the animals?--I believe so. (3,547.) But you believe that,
generally speaking, there is a very different feeling in England?--Not
among the physiologists; I do not think there is. (3553.)--_Min. of Ev.
R. Com._, London, 1876.

282.

“One monkey, two guinea-pigs, two young white rats, one white mouse,
two rabbits, one pigeon, three eels, one mud-fish, and one frog were
inoculated in several parts of the body with leprous matter, and also
small portions of tissue impregnated with bacilli were engrafted.
Leprosy did not break out in any of the animals.”--_Note by O. Israel_,
_Centralbl. f. Wiss. Med. No. 5_, 1883, p. 79.


=Koch, Heinrich Hermann Robert.= M.D. Geheimrath. Direct. of the Pathol.
Instit. of Sanit. Med. Berlin.

“You saw the dog which was injected with a minimum quantity of tubercle
bacilli. The injection was made in the abdominal cavity, and produced an
exquisite tubercular peritonitis. Nevertheless, the dog finally recovered
entirely, and seemed perfectly well. Then the same dog was used again,
and a large number of bacilli were introduced into the abdominal cavity.
You will see that the dog is fatally ill. Now, if one attack conferred
immunity, it ought to have been impossible to produce this second attack.
Hence I do not think it possible to prevent the disease in that way, nor
do I think it necessary to try it.”--“_Dr. Robert Koch interviewed_,”
_Med. Times_, Aug. 26th, 1882, p. 255.

“The result of Koch’s inoculation experiments he (Dr. Formad)
discredited, because the successful ones had been made only on animals
that have a very strong predisposition to tuberculosis, and contract it
from inoculation of non-specific substances, while others, which were
claimed to be successful, he regarded as cases of pseudotuberculosis.
The view in regard to the bacilli tuberculosis to which Dr. Formad
inclined, was that they do not cause the disease, while it is likely that
they do ‘condition the fatal disease.’ The remarks were received with
marked interest, and were followed by a brief discussion, participated
in by Drs. Wood, Gross, Tyson, Bartholow, Cohen, and others. Some of
the speakers seem to have adopted Koch’s views, and it was spoken of
as a matter of congratulation that one so well fitted as Dr. Formad
should have presented the arguments against them, since the truth
would be arrived at all the more surely if the new doctrine were put
upon its defence, and not allowed to establish itself without due
scrutiny.”--_Philadelphia Med. News_, Oct. 28, 1882. (Reprinted in _Med.
Times_, Dec. 2, 1882.)

“Dr. Koch’s conclusions enjoy a very considerable _succès d’estime_, but
that esteem would perhaps be less were it clearly understood that the
original intention, and indeed the justification, of the method of dry
cultivation has been quietly dropped, while the method itself has been
put to a use for which it is not at all suited.”--_Med. Times_, July 15,
1882, p. 78.

“As yet we have no certain instance of animals falling spontaneously
ill of cholera in periods of cholera. All experiments also, which have
hitherto been made on animals with cholera substances, have either given
a negative result, or, if they were said to give a positive result,
they were not sufficiently supported by evidence, or were disputed by
other experimenters. We occupied ourselves, nevertheless, in the most
careful and detailed manner, with experiments on animals. Because great
value must be laid on the results on white-mice obtained by Thiersch. I
took fifty mice with me from Berlin, and made all kinds of experiments
on them,” but … “our mice remained healthy. We then made experiments
on monkeys, cats, poultry, dogs, and various other animals that we
were able to get hold of; but we were never able to arrive at anything
in animals similar to the cholera-process.… Hence, I think, that all
the animals on which we can make experiments, and all those, too,
which come into contact with human beings, are not liable to cholera.…
We must, therefore, dispense with them as a material for affording
proofs.”--_Koch’s_ “_Address to the German Board of Health_,” “_Brit.
Med. Journ.,”_ Sept. 6, 1884, p. 454.

“The sub-maxillary gland of the dog was chosen for experiment, owing to
its exposed condition, and the comparative ease with which its nerves can
be isolated; a few experiments were made on the parotid, but these were
not increased in number, since there seems little reason to doubt that
that which is true for one salivary gland is also true for the rest.…
In observing the flow of blood all the veins going to the jugular were
tied, except the veins coming from the gland; then either the jugular
was tied and cut across on the peripheral side of the ligature, and the
blood allowed to run into a narrow test tube…; or a cut was made just
at the division of the jugular, the jugular itself clamped, and the
blood collected as before.… The pilocarpin was injected sometimes into

“During the past winter, I have made several observations upon the
changes which follow ligature of the bile ducts in animals. The animals
used were cats; these seem to survive the operation better than dogs.
Most observers find that dogs live only five to ten days after. The
way in which the ligature was applied was as follows:--The animal was
first secured in a Czermak’s holder, and chloroform given largely, so as
to secure a deep narcosis.… A cut is then made through the linea alba
from the xiphoid cartilage downwards for about two inches.… Pushing
aside to the left the stomach and duodenum, and raising the free edge
of the liver, the bile ducts are seen coming from the liver and gall
bladder.… A ligature is then put around the common duct and tied close
to the duodenum; another is tied tightly on the duct, about half an inch
nearer to the liver, and the duct between the two ligatures divided by
a pair of scissors, the vessel being held out from the portal vein for
that purpose. In two of the cats the bile found its way again into the
intestine; in the later operations, therefore, I removed altogether about
half an inch of the common duct as is done in making biliary fistulæ.
The belly walls were then brought together with ordinary sutures. It is
well to place these close together, as I lost three of the cats from the
giving way of the sutures and consequent prolapse of the bowels. All
the operations recorded in this paper were done in the pharmacological
laboratory of my friend and colleague, Dr. Brunton.…

weak, and seemed about to die, it was determined to make the diabetic
puncture. The cat was therefore laid prone, a cut made through the skin
over the occipital protuberance, and the chisel applied immediately
underneath this. After dividing the occipital bone, the chisel was
passed in a direction downwards and forwards, so as to cut the line made
by joining the two auditory meatus. The chisel was pushed on until it
met with the basilar bone, and was then withdrawn. Operation was over
at 12.30. Before the operation the cat had languidly taken a little
milk.”--“_On the changes in the Liver which follow Ligature of the Bile

=Leopold, G.= Prof. Univ. Leipsig.

“Professor Leopold, of Leipsig, has recently carried out some experiments
of the above kind, the results of which we think it well to summarise,
seeing that English physicians are prevented by foolish legislation from
making any such researches themselves.… Dr. Leopold therefore proceeded
thus: he opened the abdomen and uterus of a pregnant animal, and then
the abdomen of one not pregnant, and transferred in some experiments the
embryo only, in others the embryo and its membranes and placenta, from
the uterus of one animal to the abdominal cavity of the other. Then he
closed the wound and observed the result. Rabbits were the animals used.…
As to the result, the experiments fall into two groups--one in which
peritonitis followed, from which the animals soon died; and the other in
which they survived, and the transplanted embryo became encapsuled.… In
the cases in which no peritonitis was excited, the animals were killed at
periods varying from three to seventy days after the operation.”--_Med.

1883, p. 93.

“The authors pursued the following methods in their experiments, which
were made solely on dogs: After opening the abdomen in the linea alba,
a portion of the smaller intestines was drawn out, and ligatures which
at first were not closed were applied to the upper and lower part;
above and below the ligatures the intestine was cut open with very fine
scissors, and rinsed out with a seven per cent. solution of salt. Then
the lower ligature was closed, and the solution injected into the upper
opening, the reabsorption of which is to be tested. While the syringe
was being withdrawn the upper ligature was also secured. A portion of
the lower end of the small intestine was then submitted to the same
process; but in this case a longer portion was taken out to compensate
as much as possible for the smaller size of the lower end of the
intestine.… After the bowels had been replaced the wound was sewn up,
and the dog set at liberty; and after a certain time--generally an hour
or an hour and a-half--killed, and the contents of the tied loops were
examined.”--_Centralb. f. d. Med. Wiss._, 1883, p. 679.

=Lewaschew= (Dr.), St. Petersburg.

“A most careful and valuable series of experimental researches on
the influence of the nervous system in the causation of disease of
the vessels has been contributed to the current number of Virchow’s
_Archiv._, by Dr. Lewaschew, of St. Petersburg.… The method of
investigation is worthy of mention. Generally the chief nerve trunks of
the hinder extremities of dogs were the parts subject to irritation by
means of a solution of muriatic or sulphuric acid; it was found that
rabbits and cats were unfit for this continuous form of stimulation,
because the action of the acid on the exposed nerve trunk brought about
gangrene; as a strong stimulus was wanted milder means could not be
employed.”--_Lancet_, June 2nd, 1883, p. 962.

Dr. Lewaschew drew a thread moistened with acid through the nervus
ischiadicus of the one leg to set up an irritation in the nerve. At
intervals of from three to six days a thread was sewn nearer the
peripheric end of the nerve. This was continued till the death of the
animals. Some died rapidly of gangrene of the extremities and septicemia,
others at the end of two to four weeks only of putrid infection and
dysentery; many, however, supported the operation for two or four months.
Some of the animals became seized with epileptic fits, which increased
till life ended.--_Petersburg Med. Wochenschrift_, Vol. XXXI., 1880.

“A triton whose cord had been divided some weeks was completely cut in
two. The head-half immediately began crawling away with great activity,
which, as this half contained the heart, and almost all the viscera,
was not surprising. The tail half remained for some time in a standing
posture, and then began to crawl forward. After three steps it paused,
remaining quiet during five minutes, and began again, but feebly. The
tail moved spontaneously, but with great slowness; when it was touched
both tail and legs moved. I then placed it under a glass, with a
moistened sponge inside to prevent evaporation from the skin, and left
it there for two hours, watching its spontaneous, though very languid
movements. If any reader remains still unconvinced, I can only recommend
him to divide the spinal chord of a frog a little below the shoulders,
and keep the animal for some days or weeks (care must be taken to prevent
water getting to the cord, as that soon kills the animal), watching it,
and testing its sensibility.”--_Physiol. Com. Life_, Vol. II., pp. 255-6.

“Marshall Hall reports the case of a man in whom accident had destroyed
all sensation and voluntary motion, yet who drew up his legs when they
were tickled, without once feeling the sensation of tickling.… This case
is constantly cited, and is, indeed, very striking. It seems to have a
far greater value than any experiments on animals can have, because we
cannot question animals as to their sensations; we do not _know_ whether
they feel or not. We can only infer: whereas we can interrogate the human
patient.”--_Ibid._, p. 861.

“I now come to the results of stimulation of the central nerves. When
a powerful unnarcotised animal was submitted to the experiment, I
observed that in most cases, the arteria auricularis became smaller
at the commencement of the stimulation. This occurred more surely and
quickly as the animal expressed its sufferings more violently by cries
and struggles. This narrowing of the artery lasted for different, but
always very short periods of time, and then gave place to an enlargement
even during continued stimulation.… This is, however, not always the case
when a great number of experiments are made.… Once it happened that in an
unnarcotised animal, immediately at the commencement of the stimulation
without any signs of narrowing a very powerful distention occurred.
This result appeared in the same animal as long as the sensitiveness
of the nerves remained sufficient to allow the experiment to be
continued.”--_Erweiterung von Arterien durch Nervenerregung, Ludwig’s

Made experiments in the Physiological Laboratory of Zurich (jointly with
Drs. von Borosnyai, Steger, and Pestalozzi) on electrical stimulation of
the cerebral cortex. Also experiments on dogs, horses, cats, pigs, oxen,
and goats. Cut the nervus ischiadicus to study the action of muscarin and
pilocarpin on the excretory glands. Also experiments on cats and kittens
with Miss J. A. Kendall.

“At the sight of a strange dog, still more so on being bound to the
vivisecting table, the cat often breaks out in a violent perspiration
on all four feet. It strikes us naturally that the first thing to do is
to remove totally all these psychical influences, if it is wished to
study thoroughly other causes which may have the effect of stimulating
the perspiratory centres. A method frequently employed--narcosis--I
have purposely never used; indeed, I _never_ make use of it except for
preliminary operations. If the brain is really narcotised, the other
nerve centres must also have lost much of their excitability, lesser
degrees of narcotisation seem to me to offer very little advantage for
the purpose we have in view.”--Pflüger’s _Archiv._, Vol. XIII., p. 375.

“By the following experiments Luchsinger believes himself to have found
the most irrefutable proof of the existence of a really antagonistic
action of atropin and pilocarpin on the excretory glands, and to have
finally disposed of my thesis on physiological antagonism. When he had
fully convinced himself of the functions performed by the sweat glands
on the hind feet of chloroformed cats, by cutting both hip nerves,
and stimulating their peripheral ends, and also by injecting 0·01
grs. of pilocarpin under the skin of the back; when he had succeeded
in completely arresting all secretion of sweat by the injection of
0·001-0·003 grs. of atropin under the skin of the back, so that the
very strongest stimulation of the hip nerves remained entirely without
effect, he always succeeded in causing a spontaneous secretion of sweat
in the balls of the toes by the injection of 0·301 grs. of pilocarpin
either into the feet or under the skin of the back. If he injected less
than 0·001 grains of pilocarpin, the natural secretion of sweat might
not result, but could be excited by stimulation of the nerves which had
been without effect before. The feet into which no pilocarpin had been
injected remained dry and could not be brought to perspire by electrical
stimulation of the nerves. Luchsinger considers these experiments to be
practically the most simple and theoretically the most explicit, and
hence he believes that I shall also allow myself to be convinced by them
of the fallacy of my third thesis. Our experiments on the same subject
have shown us however on the contrary that Luchsinger’s theories are only
partially founded on correct observation, also that the conclusiveness of
his experiments only appears to him so simple and clear because he has
not thoroughly worked out the whole question, and has allowed himself
to be duped too rapidly by the surprising results which happened at
first.”--Rossbach, “_Neue studien ueber den Physiologischen Antagonismus

Majendie was the founder of the School of Experimental Physiology,
and was so indifferent to the sufferings of the animals experimented
upon that he has been called cruel by his fellow workers, and was even
accused of having performed experiments on human beings. On the occasion
of his first visit to England he was openly accused in Parliament, but
was so warmly defended by James Mackintosh and a strong party, that the
accusation led to no result.

“I recall to mind a poor dog, the roots of whose vertebral nerves
Majendie desired to lay bare. The dog, already mutilated and bleeding,
twice escaped from under the implacable knife, and threw his front paws
around Majendie’s neck, licking him, as if to soften his murderer and beg
for mercy. Vivisectors may laugh, but I confess I was unable to endure

Inventor of a machine called “The Tormentatore,” capable of inflicting
“intense,” “cruel,” “most atrocious” agony.

“The _Gazzetta Italiana di Milano_ contains an essay of Prof. Mantegazza
on experiments carried on under his direction at the laboratory of
experimental pathology of the University of Pavia. It will suffice to
state that the experiments were intended to study the action of pain on
digestion and nutrition. They were, as the Professor himself confesses,
agonising to the animals subjected to them, and distressing to the
experimenters, and simply proved that loss of appetite, great weakness,
and a peculiar imbibition of moisture were the result of the pain
inflicted. It is added that no alteration of the spinal marrow could be
detected after the agony had been protracted for _one month_. Very meagre
results of unpardonable cruelty.”--_Lancet_, March 25th, 1871, p. 415.

“To meet the views of M. Marey a physiological station is being
established in the Bois de Boulogne. In his Laboratory at the College
of France M. Marey has been able to make a number of researches on
the physiology of the nerves and muscles; but from want of space, he
has encountered difficulties when he required to study the functional
movements of the various animals. The new physiological station of
the Bois de Boulogne, which will have a roadway of 3,500 yards in
length, will enable M. Marey to make interesting experiments on this
subject.”--_Brit. Med. Journ._, 19 Nov., 1881, p. 826.

“After dividing the skin in the middle line, I have always removed a

posterior edge of the opening thus made extends back to about opposite
the posterior margin of the cerebral hemispheres, and the aperture was
enlarged with scissors until the front edges of the optic lobes came into
view. These were carefully and completely separated by a cataract knife
from the parts of the brain in front of them, and the latter were removed
from the cranial cavity; the incision in the skull being usually carried
forwards to facilitate this removal. The edges of the skin were then
brought carefully in contact, without sutures, and the animal placed
in a dish containing a little water and left until the wound healed up
… they were not fed, as experience showed me that for the week or two
during which I desired to keep them, they did better without food; or at

“On an etherized animal, the degree of reflex stimulation produced by an
electric current of predetermined intensity in immediate contact with
the skin was noted. Afterwards the exposed cerebral hemispheres were
simultaneously stimulated, to observe whether the reflex action produced
by the first stimulation increased or diminished. This method only led to
uncertain results.”--Review of “On the inhibitory or restraining action
which the encephalon exerts on the reflex centres of the spinal cord” by

“At this stage of the inquiry we examined the action of light on the eyes
of living animals.… We accordingly instituted a series of experiments
which were practically very troublesome. We examined the eyes--(1) of the
living cat; (2) of the living pigeon; and (3) of the living owl. In all
cases the animals were deeply under the influence of chloroform during
the experiments.

“1. The Cat.--The animal was securely fixed in Czermak’s rabbit-holder.
The skin around the orbit was reflected. The zygomatic arch was snipped
through by bone forceps, so as to expose as much as possible of the side
of the orbit. The cellular tissue of the orbit was then pushed aside
along the superior and the lateral aspect of the eyeball, so as to reach
the optic nerve with as little disturbance as possible to the vascular
arrangements of the eyeball. On exposing clearly the optic nerve, and
staunching hæmorrhage, the nerve was cut through transversely with
sharp scissors. When this was done the globe could be pulled downwards,
inwards, and forwards, so as to expose a clear transverse section of
the nerve. With the head firmly fixed, one narrow clay point was now
placed on the cornea, while the other was in contact with the transverse
section of the nerve.”--“On the physiological actions of light,” by Dr.

“I will now briefly describe the nature of my experiments:--

1. Condensing a sunbeam on various parts of the scorpion’s body.…

2. Heating in a glass bottle, as this admits of most careful watching. I
have killed some twenty or thirty individuals in this way.…

3. Surrounding with fire or red-hot embers.…

4. Placing in burning alcohol.…

5. Placing in concentrated sulphuric acid.… The creature died in about
ten minutes.…

6. Burning phosphorus on the creature’s body. I placed a small pellet of
phosphorus near the root of the scorpion’s tail, and lit the phosphorus
with the touch of a heated wire.…

7. Drowning in water, alcohol, and ether.

8. Placing in a bottle with a piece of cotton-wool moistened with benzine.

9. Exposing to sudden light.…

10. Treating with a series of electric shocks.

11. General and exasperating courses of worry.”

“I think it will be admitted that some of these experiments were
sufficiently barbarous (the sixth is positively sickening) to induce
any scorpion who had the slightest suicidal tendency to find relief in
self-destruction. I have in all cases repeated the experiments on several

Has made numerous experiments jointly with Dr. Sydney Ringer to test the
actions of various drugs on cats and frogs.

“In addition to these experiments, we have made some observations
clinically. To eighteen adults--fourteen men and four women--we ordered
ten grains of the pure nitrite of sodium in an ounce of water, and of
these seventeen declared that they were unable to take it.… One man,
a burly, strong fellow, suffering from a little rheumatism only, said
that after taking the first dose he ‘felt giddy,’ as if he would ‘go off
insensible.’ His lips, face, and hands turned blue, and he had to lie
down for an hour and a half before he dared move. His heart fluttered,
and he suffered from throbbing pains in the head. _He was urged to take
another dose, but declined on the ground that he had a wife and family._
Another patient had to sit down for an hour after the dose, and said
that it ‘took all his strength away.’ He, too, seemed to think that the
medicine did not agree with him.… The women appear to have suffered more
than the men.… One woman said that ten minutes after taking the first
dose--she did not try a second--she felt a trembling sensation all over
her, and suddenly fell on the floor. Whilst lying there, she perspired
profusely, her face and head seemed swollen and throbbed violently, until
she thought they would burst.… Another woman said she thought she would
have died after taking a dose; it threw her into a violent perspiration,
and in less than five minutes her lips turned quite black and throbbed
for hours; it upset her so much that she was afraid she would never get
over it. The only one of the fourteen patients _who made no complaint_
after taking ten grains was powerfully affected by fifteen.… The effect
on these patients was so unpleasant that it was deemed unadvisable to
increase the dose.”--Drs. Ringer and Murrell in _Lancet_, Nov. 3, 1883.

“Exper. No. 121, was made on a dog of about 14 kgr. weight, very thin,
whose blood was particularly poor. Blood was drawn from the carotid
artery, the jugular vein, and the vena cava superior at the same
time, the last drops of which already thickened in the glass cannula.
Respiration had ceased. Only once after a long rest, did the dog draw
a deep breath with open mouth as usually happens immediately before
death. The pulsations of the heart were scarcely perceptible. I then
tried electric stimulation of the nervus vagus, after dissecting it
out, but without causing any pulsation of the heart or breathing,
either during the stimulation or when it ceased. Death was undoubtedly
near. I then injected into the jugular vein a solution of common salt.
Tetanus followed each injection--immediately afterwards the heart began
to beat again and the blood streamed out of the arteries. When the
bleeding ceased, I again injected the solution rather weaker than at
first. No cramps followed but the flow of blood continued. The third
injection produced the same result, but death followed soon after.
The whole experiment had lasted an hour and a-half.”--“_Ueber die

formed by the meninges round the cauda equina. For this purpose it is
sufficient to take out a few of the spinal apophyses of the corresponding
vertebræ. One obtains thus, as it were, two receptacles communicating
by the intermediary of the cephalo-spinal liquid, and it becomes easy
to augment the pressure of this liquid.… Pain is one of the very first
results produced, and it is the more intense, if the pressure be
immediately brought to its greatest height. Soon, convulsions follow.
These seldom are epileptiform.… Breathing becomes slower, then irregular,
then disappears.”--_Archives Générales de Médecine_, VIIᵉᵐ. Série, Vol.

“Nothnagel considers himself justified in concluding from his experiments
on rabbits that all the will fibres, without exception, traverse the
lenticular nucleus. This is denied by the French investigators, who
attribute the complete annihilation of voluntary movement, which
Nothnagel achieved by the injection of caustic solutions into both
lenticular nuclei, to a simultaneous destruction of the internal capsule
which, owing to the small size of the lenticular nuclei in the rabbit,
might easily have been overlooked on dissection. Nothnagel, however, has
lately published a brief statement, in which he adheres to his original
assertion.”--Kussmaul, “_On Disturbances of Speech_,” _Ziemssen’s Cyclop.

“Unfortunately, the results of experiments upon animals, as respects the
exact localisation of lesions, cannot be transferred directly to the
case of man, except that we have reason to believe, through an important
experiment of Hitzig’s upon an ape, that the motor centres for the nerves
of the extremities and the cranial nerves lie in the gyrus præcentralis,
or centralis anterior (Huschke, Ecker), in other words, that affections
of the cortical substance of this convolution may produce motor

“To ascertain the influence of pus alone, injections were first of all
made with that from cold abscesses, which contained no organisms.…
Introduced under spray into a pure subcutaneous syringe, quantities
varying from one to ten minims were injected into the subcutaneous tissue
of the back in chloroformed guinea-pigs, white mice, and wild mice. In
all twenty such injections were made, with the invariable result that
no illness or abscess ensued.… But a very different effect was produced
when similar injections were made with pus containing micrococci. In
every instance, with the qualifications to be presently made, well-marked
disease was set up. Quantities varying from one to three minims produced
in the animals already mentioned symptoms of blood-poisoning, lasting
from two to five days. The animals refused food, sat cowering in a
retired place in their cage, were listless and apathetic, their coat
was disordered and sometimes wet, their eyes were kept closed save
when startled; and the mice showed the purulent conjunctivitis and
glueing together of the eyelids described by Koch in his experiments on
septicæmia.”--_Report on “Micro-Organisms in Surgical Diseases,” Brit.

“Method.--The animals employed were young cats with unpigmented feet:
These not only bear the operations better than older animals, but sweat
more easily, and the secretion is more readily observed. In cases where
the cord was to be exposed, the animal was placed belly downwards, with
a block of wood under its abdominal surface to elevate the vertebræ, and
make them more accessible. The muscles having been separated from the
vertebral arches, and held at a distance by means of weighted hooks, the
spinous processes were cut off, and a small trephine employed to make
openings, about half an inch apart through the arches. The intervals
between these openings were subsequently broken through by means of
strong cutting forceps.… To stimulate the nerves, or the central nervous
systems, a Du Bois coil was used, with Helmholtz’s arrangement to
prevent unipolar action. Tetanizing currents were employed.”--_Journ. of

Has principally experimented on transfusion, feeding, and starvation. Has
starved dogs four weeks till death occurred. A whelp was bled till death
convulsions set in and then revived by transfusion; then again bled till
even reflex movements could no longer be excited by touching the cornea,
and again revived by transfusion. This was repeated four times; but the
dog died half an hour after the last transfusion.--_Scandinavian Med.
Archives_, 1875.

“On a dog of middle size I opened the trachea and inserted into it a
glass tube.… Then I dissected out and isolated the nervi vagi; the
animal was laid on its back and the thorax opened by cutting through the
cartilage of the ribs and entirely removing the sternum. The pericardium
was now opened … and artificial respiration introduced. Partly through
the suffocation and partly through pain and terror, the movements of the
heart grew very slow, small, and irregular … but after the artificial
respiration had commenced, they got more vigorous.… Five minutes after
I cut asunder both nervi vagi, at which operation the animal uttered no
sign of pain. A minute after the movements of the heart were so greatly
accelerated that it became difficult to count them.… It struck us that
the heart seemed to have grown smaller than before we cut asunder the
nervi vagi.… Then I stimulated (irritated) the peripheric ends of the
cut nervi vagi with Neif’s electric apparatus. Almost immediately the
heart stood still in diastole.… The movements of the heart recommenced
and grew more rapid and vigorous than ever, but this soon passed away.
The ends of the nervi vagi were for a second time stimulated … and this
proceeding was repeated six times, always with the same result.… The
pain, which otherwise results from the nervi vagi being cut asunder, was
eliminated, because the far greater pain, occasioned by the opening of
the thorax, had, as every very painful operation will do, diminished the
sensitiveness of the animal so much that it gave no evidence of pain at
the cutting asunder of the nervi vagi. Without introducing artificial
respiration at the opening of the thorax, I have repeated this experiment
scores of times, and always with the same result.”--Panum, _Scand.
Medical Bibl._, 1857.

“26th Ex.: I had opened the thorax of a dog and kept its life up by
artificial respiration, having also cut the nervi vagi. Everything
had gone as we desired. The heart worked vigorously and regularly,
and the animal had full consciousness and sensitiveness. On applying
the electrodes of Neif to the heart, its regular movements ceased
immediately.”--_Ibid._, p. 134.

Prof. Panum states that he has “employed” a great number of animals
in experiments of transfusion and injections of putrid humours. For
experiments on death by embolism he has employed some eighty dogs and
rabbits.--“_Experimental Observations_,” _Virchow’s Archiv._, Vol. XXIX.,

“M. Vulpian injected under the skin of rabbits saliva collected at the
very moment of the experiment, from perfectly healthy individuals, and
this injection killed the rabbit so inoculated in forty-eight hours.
The blood of these rabbits was found to be filled with microscopic
organisms; among which was a special organism discovered by M. Pasteur in
the course of his experiments with inoculation of the saliva of a child
who had died of rabies. One drop of this blood, diluted in ten grammes
of distilled water, and injected under the skin of other rabbits, also
brought on the death of these animals; the blood of which was similarly
filled with microscopic organisms. These singular results, of which the
interpretation is by no means easy, present also the no less singular
peculiarity of not being stable. Rabbits placed in identical conditions,
and inoculated with the same saliva, experienced no ill effects from
their inoculation, and continued in excellent health. It would therefore
appear that experimental microbiology is not yet on the way to become
either an easy or clear science, notwithstanding M. Pasteur’s _fiat
lux_.”--_Brit. Med. Journ._, April 9, 1881, p. 571.

“The question of spontaneous generation I will not attempt to treat here
as it would require special discussion. The experiments of M. Pasteur
have only shown that under the experimental conditions with which he
surrounded himself, conditions which were far from natural, he did not
detect any spontaneous organisation of matter. Moreover, all those who
have devoted themselves to science, with the sole aim of seeking the
truth, as G. Bernard, Huxley, Häckel, etc., while admitting that M.
Pasteur’s experiments had been properly conducted within the very narrow
circle they occupied, have unanimously rejected the assertions and
generalisations drawn from them by that savant himself.”--Dr. Jousset de
Bellesme, _Progrès Médical_, Vol. X., 1882, p. 340.

“It is now four years since the study of rabies was first commenced in my
laboratory, and it has been continued without any other interruption than
the enforced cessations which depend on the conditions of the enquiry,
conditions which are very unfavourable. The incubation of the disease is
always of long duration. There are never sufficient facilities to enable
one at a given moment to multiply experiments. In spite of these material
hindrances, which however the French Government, in its care for the
great scientific interests involved, has done everything in its power to
remove, the experiments which we, my fellow-workers and I, have carried
out, have nevertheless passed beyond the possibility of numbering them.…
If you take any street-dog you please and inoculate rabies in this manner
by trephining, using as inoculating-material a portion of the bulb of an
animal which has died of the disease, you will invariably convey rabies.
The dogs to which the disease has been communicated in this manner are to
be counted by hundreds. The method has never failed. The same operation
has been performed on hundreds of guinea-pigs and on a yet greater number
of rabbits, without a single failure.”--_Pasteur’s_ “_Address Delivered
at the International Med. Congress at Copenhagen_,” Aug. 11th, “_Med.
Times and Gazette_,” Aug. 23rd, 1884.

“In the case where rabies is produced by a bite, or by hypodermic
injection, interference with the length of the incubation period must be
chiefly ascribed to the great variation which is possible in the amount,
always indefinite, of inoculated poison which reaches the central nervous
system. If then we wish to determine the intensity of the virus from the
length of the incubation period, it is unavoidably necessary to have
recourse to inoculation by trephining, which is absolutely certain in its
effects, and to employ larger quantities than such as would be necessary
simply to produce rabies. When we operate in this way, irregularities
in the length of incubation with the same virus will show a tendency to
entirely disappear, because we always obtain the maximum of effect which
the virus can produce; that maximum corresponding to the minimum duration
of incubation. Thus we have at length obtained a method which has
enabled us to enquire into the possible existence of varying degrees of
virulence, and to mutually compare them. The only secrets in this method,
I repeat, are to inoculate by trephining, and to use a quantity of virus,
which, although very weak, is more than sufficient to produce rabies in
and by itself.”--_Ibid._

“As he says substantially in his published report on the subject of
canine madness, which he read before a meeting of the Academy of Sciences
on May 19, the first experiments he has made give him almost certain hope
of success. But, notwithstanding his sanguine views as to the finally
favourable results of his investigations, and their unqualified benefit
to mankind, he has to ‘multiply the proofs _ad infinitum_ on different
species of the brute creation.’ When this shall have been done he will
then try the remedy on man.”--_Report of a Conversation with M. Pasteur_,
“_Daily Telegraph_,” June 6, 1884.

“The _Journal of Anat. and Physiol._ for May, 1869, contains a short
communication by Prof. Rutherford relating to the action of the
section of the vagus on the blood pressure. According to Rutherford’s
experiments the results of section of the vagus depend upon the condition
of the alimentary canal; when the canal is full, the section of the
nerves occasions heightened pressure, whereas in starving animals
this operation causes no alteration in the blood pressure. Rutherford
thinks this phenomenon is caused by the depressory distention of the
intestinal vessels by the food contained in them. He supposes that the
sensory nerves ending in the vagus root are stimulated by the food. The
division of these ducts occasions a reflex narrowing of the vessels and
hence heightened pressure. This important hypothesis of Rutherford’s
(neither the amount nor the duration of blood pressure has been given,
nor the time of feeding, etc.), has, as far as we know, not been tested
experimentally, although the fact is often brought forward. This was the
chief incentive which prompted me to make the following experiments:--All
the experiments (twenty in all) were made exclusively on dogs, the
directions given by Rutherford being carefully followed. The animals were
immediately placed under the effects of curare.… The nervus vagi were cut
through one after the other … other sensory nerves (mostly the Nervus
dorsalis pedis) were cut.… The results of the experiments made by me in
this manner were, excepting in two cases, diametrically opposed to the
results described by Rutherford.”--_Zur Lehre ueber die Innervation der

Finally, inoculations were made from rabbit to rabbit under the most
varied conditions; with the salivary glands, and the lymphatic ganglions;
death was the result. It remains to be seen whether the disease thus
communicated was really hydrophobia. MM. Colin, Dejardin-Baumetz, and
Pasteur think it was not. M. Raynaud, himself, only asserts the fact
weakly, as he draws attention to the absence of the period of excitement,
the short time of incubation, the extreme rapidity with which death
ensues; lastly, he mentions cases where inoculated animals have recovered
after a few days’ illness.… M. Gosselin thinks the surest method of
recognizing the disease would be by retransmission from the rabbit to the
dog.”--_Archives générales de Médecine_, Vol. I. (1881), p. 369.

M. Richet has found that strong and repeated electrical stimulation, will
cause, in rabbits and dogs, a tetanus comparable in its results to the
traumatic form.

“In the dogs the electricity employed was not sufficiently powerful to
arrest respiration, and death was due to the elevation of temperature.
The ascent of the thermometer was extremely rapid, so that after the
tetanus had lasted for half-an-hour, the lethal temperature of 111 or 112
F. was reached.… The proof that the increased body heat was the cause
of death was furnished by the fact that if the animal is kept cool by
artificial means it may bear for more than two hours extremely strong
currents, which cause severe tetanus without dying for some days. The
capacity for generating this great temperature under electrisation does
not disappear even after prolonged application, and it is not influenced
by previous fasting for two or three days.… Usually death occurs when
a temperature of 112° is attained, but in some cases it reached 112·5
and even 113·3. If the temperature did not rise above 110° death did
not ensue on the same or the following day; after this point however,
although death may not be immediate, it occurs within 24 hours.… At 111°
the breathing is so frequent that it is hardly possible to count it and
so feeble that scarcely any air enters the thorax.”--_Lancet_, September
17th, 1881, p. 515.

“Pain is a purely central phenomenon. It is a sensation that may exist,
even to intensity, without manifesting its presence by any external sign,
and consequently it is impossible to gauge it. All physiologists know
that during vivisection there is an entire dissimilarity in the manner
in which animals seem to suffer. Some remain motionless, the eyes fixed,
neither struggling nor moaning; they appear as if struck by stupor.
Others on the contrary groan and howl, never remaining a moment without
struggling or endeavouring to escape. Every incision that is made, every
laceration, every pull is instantly followed by a shock which interferes
with the result of the experiment.… I will point out, moreover, the fact
observed by the physiologists at Alport. The blood of the animals used
for operations is almost devoid of fibrine, like the blood of animals
that have been overworked. As regards dyspepsia and disorders of the
digestive functions which prolonged pain brings on, the phenomenon is
rather psychical than physiological, and pain acts similarly to grief
and privation.”--“_Recherches expérimentelles et cliniques sur la
sensibilité_,” _Collection de Thèses École de Médicine_, Paris, 1877, p.
255.

“When it is a question of scientific research one must act resolutely,
without considering the pain.”--Revue des deux Mondes, Feb. 15, 1883.

“I do not believe that a single experimenter says to himself when he
gives curari to a rabbit, or cuts the spinal marrow of a dog, or poisons
a frog: ‘Here is an experiment which will relieve or will cure the
disease of some men.’ No, in truth, he does not think of that! He says to
himself ‘I shall clear up an obscure point, I will seek out a new fact.’
And this scientific curiosity which alone animates him, is explained by
the high idea he has formed of Science. This is why we pass our days
in fœtid laboratories (_dans les salles nauséabondes_), surrounded by
groaning creatures, in the midst of blood and suffering, bent over
palpitating entrails.”--_Ibid._

“Science has nothing to do with utility, or rather the true utilitarians
are those who have hope in the science of the future.”--_Ibid._

“In addition to these experiments, we have made some observations
clinically. To eighteen adults--fourteen men and four women--we ordered
ten grains of the pure nitrite of sodium in an ounce of water, and of
these seventeen declared that they were unable to take it. They came
back, protesting loudly, and required no questioning as to the symptoms
produced. They seemed to be pretty unanimous on one point--that it was
about the worst medicine (!) they had ever taken. They said if they ever
took another dose they would expect to drop down dead, and it would serve
them right. One man, a burly, strong fellow, suffering a little from
rheumatism only, said that after taking the first dose he ‘felt giddy,’
as if he would ‘go off insensible.’ His lips, face, and hands turned
blue, and he had to lie down for an hour and a half before he dared move.
His heart fluttered, and he suffered from throbbing pains in the head. He
was urged to take another dose, but declined on the ground that he had a
wife and family. Another patient had to sit down for an hour after the
dose, and said that it ‘took all his strength away.’ He, too, seemed to
think that the medicine did not agree with him.… The women appear to have
suffered more than the men! at all events, they expressed their opinions
more forcibly. One woman said that ten minutes after taking the first
dose--she did not try a second--she felt a trembling sensation all over
her, and suddenly fell on the floor. Whilst lying there she perspired
profusely, her face and head seemed swollen and throbbed violently, until
she thought they would burst.… Another woman said she thought she would
have died after taking a dose; it threw her into a violent perspiration,
and in less than five minutes her lips turned quite black and throbbed
for hours; it upset her so much that she was afraid she would never get
over it. The only one of the fourteen patients who made no complaint
after taking ten grains was powerfully affected by fifteen.… The effect
on these patients was so unpleasant that it was deemed unadvisable to
increase the dose.”--_Lancet_, Nov. 3, 1883.

“In addition to these observations on patients, I made six temperature
experiments on rabbits, but the results obtained were simply nil. I soon
found--a fact with which I was previously acquainted--that, in those
animals, fright exerts a marked influence on the temperature.”--_Handbook
of Therapeutics_, p. 516.

“Dr. Rickards and I gave to an habitual drunkard, making him ‘dead
drunk,’ twelve ounces of good brandy in a single dose, without the
slightest reduction of temperature.”

“In a boy aged ten, who had never in his life before taken alcohol in any
form, I found, through a large number of observations, a constant and
decided reduction of temperature.”--_Ibid._, pp. 340-1.

“Let me refer to what has been done by Dr. Roy in 1880, partly in
the Physiological Laboratory at Cambridge, and partly in the Leipsic
Philological Institute, the experiments being carried out on rabbits,
cats, and dogs. The animal was placed under curare, artificial
respiration was used, that is to say, a tube was pushed down the animal’s
windpipe, and worked by an engine in regular puffs in order to keep the
blood oxygenated. Then the back, skull, chest, and abdomen were opened.
I don’t suppose these were always opened in one animal, as in many cases
the animal would have died. No doubt sometimes part of the experiment
took place on one, and sometimes on another. The various organs were
dissected out. The principal nerves such as the sciatic nerve and so
on, were tied in two places and cut. This lasted for many hours. It is
stated the animal was under the influence of anæsthetics, but the use
of curare is admitted. In the most scientific opinion, when curare is
used, it neutralizes the use of the anæsthetic. I feel myself at a great
disadvantage in treating of these matters as compared with the gentlemen
beside me; but if I am making a mistake, I trust I may be corrected. In
this instance, however, I believe I am right. Curare creates paralysis,
it paralyses the muscles and prevents the animal resisting or showing the
symptoms by which alone the existence of anæsthesia can be tested.”--_Mr.
Reid’s Speech in House of Commons_, April 4th, 1883.

“It was first sought to obtain information upon this subject by
investigating the manner and extent to which the action of the heart
is affected by obstruction of the renal arteries and the other large
branches of the aorta; the facts obtained by taking this line of inquiry
were not however of a kind fitted to throw light upon the problem which
it was specially desired to solve. It soon became evident that an
investigation of the manner in which the renal secretion and circulation
are nominally regulated, and the relation which these bear to the
regulating mechanism of the systemic circulation, would be best fitted
to supply information of the kind required. The method employed, was to
record graphically the changes in volume of one or both kidneys, while
at the same time the changes in the blood-pressure in the aorta and the
rapidity with which the urine was secreted were also recorded on the same
revolving cylinder or, as continuous tracings, upon the paper of Ludwig’s
kymograph. The method used for recording the changes in volume of the
kidney is the same in principle as that of the plethysmograph. The kidney
is enclosed in a rigid metal box, the arrangement being such that while
the organ can freely expand or contract, and while the changes in volume
are recorded by a lever writing with a light glass pen upon the kymograph
paper, no obstruction is offered to the entrance and exit of blood by
the renal vessels nor to the outflow of urine by the ureter. The kidney
is surrounded by warm olive oil, which, however, is not in immediate
contact with its surface, but is separated from it by a delicate flexible
membrane of a kind which has already been referred to by the author in
several of his published papers, and which prevents any escape of the oil
by the side of the blood-vessels and other structures entering the hilus
of the gland.… When the instrument is in use, the kidney lies between
two delicate, exceedingly flexible membranes, which apply themselves
closely to its surface and to the surface of the structures entering the
hilus of the organ, and each of these membranes forms with each of the
symmetrical halves of the box a chamber which is filled with oil and
which communicates by a relatively wide flexible tube with the recording
instrument.”

Experiment “4. After the immediate effect of the operation has passed
off, the volume of the kidney will usually remain unchanged (with
exception of the changes due to the pulse and respiration) for many hours
unless some change in the conditions of the experiment be intentionally
introduced.

“5. When the _Traube-Hering_ curves of the blood-pressure present
themselves, the volume of the kidney does not expand with the rhythmic
rise in the blood-pressure. With each rise of the blood-pressure the
kidney _contracts_, expanding with each fall of the blood-pressure. The
renal vessels are, therefore, amongst those to the rhythmic contraction
and expansion of which the _Traube-Hering_ waves are due.

“6. Arrest for 3 or 4 minutes of the artificial respiration, where that
is employed, and where curare has been previously injected, causes a
contraction of the renal vessels (which may reach 12 per cent of the
post-mortem volume of the kidney) simultaneously with the rise of aortic
blood pressure which is produced by the asphyxia.

“7. Stimulation of the medulla oblongata by weak induced currents causes
a powerful contraction of the renal vessels.

“8. Stimulation of the central end of a sensory nerve, _e.g._, sciatic,
brachial plexus, splanchnic, &c., causes a contraction of the renal
vessels simultaneous with the rise in the aortic blood-pressure.
Stimulation of the central end of the vagus causes a contraction of the
kidney (where the vagus of the other side has been cut to eliminate
reflex inhibition of the heart), and the renal vessels _contract_ whether
the stimulation of the central end of the vagus cause a rise or a fall of
the aortic blood-pressure.

“9. Stimulation of nearly all the roots of the splanchnic in the thorax,
and of both larger and smaller splanchnic nerve-trunks causes contraction
of the kidney of the _opposite_ side. The extent to which the kidney
contracts on stimulation of the splanchnic is usually very considerable.
In one case the kidney contracted on stimulating with a strong induced
current for three minutes to an extent which was equal to 63 per cent. of
the post-mortem volume of the organ.

“10. In nearly every case stimulation of the peripheral end of the cut
splanchnic at the point where it passes through the diaphragm causes
contraction of _both_ kidneys; the kidney of the side opposite to the
nerve stimulated commencing to contract later than the one on the same
side as the stimulated nerve.

“11. Stimulation of the central end of a sensory nerve, or of the medulla
oblongata, or of the cervical spinal cord, causes a contraction of the
renal vessels after _both_ splanchnics have been cut at their point of
entrance into the abdominal cavity. Vaso-constrictor influences may
therefore pass from the spinal cord to the kidney by some other path than
the two splanchnics.

“12. Section of the splanchnic does not always cause an expansion of the
renal vessels, a fact which would make it doubtful whether a vascular
tonus of the renal vessels emanating from the vaso motor centre or
centres in the spinal cord is normally present.

“13. Stimulation of the _central_ ends of the majority of the fine nerves
which enter the kidney along with the vessels causes a contraction of the
vessels of the kidney.

“14. Stimulation of the _peripheral_ end of each and all of the renal
nerves which accompany the vessels causes a contraction of the organ.

“15. After section of all but one of the (usually from 7 to 11) nerves
accompanying the renal vessels, stimulation of the peripheral end of
the splanchnic or of a sensory nerve still causes a contraction of the
kidney which differs but little in amount from that produced by the same
stimulation when all the renal nerves were intact, but which takes
longer time to show itself after the stimulation.”--Extracts from paper

“I will take one instance from certain experiments performed by Professor
Rutherford, and reported in the _British Medical Journal_. I refer to
the series of experiments commenced December the 14th, 1878. These
experiments were 31 in number; no doubt there were hundreds of dogs
sacrificed upon other series of experiments, but now I am only referring
to one set beginning as I say on the 14th of December, 1878. There were
in this set 31 experiments, but no doubt many more than 31 dogs were
sacrificed. All were performed on dogs, and the nature of them was this:
The dogs were starved for many hours. They were then fastened down; the
abdomen was cut open; the bile duct was dissected out and cut; a glass
tube was tied into the bile duct and brought outside the body. The duct
leading to the gall-bladder was then closed by a clamp and various drugs
was placed into the intestines at its upper part. The result of these
experiments was simply nothing at all--I mean it led to no increase of
knowledge whatever, and no one can be astonished at that, because these
wretched beasts were placed in such circumstances--their condition was
so abnormal--that the ordinary and universally recognised effect of
well-known drugs was not produced. These experiments were performed
without anæsthetics--the animals were experimented upon under the
influence of a drug called curari.”--_Mr. Reid’s Speech in the House of
Commons, April 4th, 1883._

“In your judgment and your own experience, are operations of that
description upon a dog to be taken as being evidence of what the effect
would be on the human being?--Certainly not, but merely as suggesting
what the action would be; that is all. The experiment must also be tried
upon man before a conclusion can be drawn.”--_Evid. Roy. Com._ Q. 2966.

“What is the rule by which you guide yourself in determining whether
animals shall be rendered insensible to pain or not?--When the mode of
rendering them insensible to pain would interfere with the due result
being obtained from the experiment, we do not so render them. Is that
any large proportion of the experiments?--I should say a considerable
proportion. Would it be more than half the experiments?--I should have
a difficulty in saying how many, but I should think about half the
experiments that I have done.”--_Ibid._, 2841-3.

“Where did you study physiology yourself?--I studied it in Berlin
chiefly. I had to go there to have a whole course of experiments
performed for my special benefit; there was a great expenditure of time
and teaching power, and also of animals, to teach me alone.”--_Ibid._, Q.
2867.

“For this purpose (to produce asphyxia) a cannula must be fixed air tight
in the trachea.… The phenomena as they present themselves in the dog,
may be enumerated as follows:--_First minute_--Excessive respiratory
movements.… Towards the close of the first minute the animal becomes
convulsed.… _Second minute_.… The iris is now dilated to a rim, the eye
does not close when the cornea is touched, nor does the pupil react
to light; all reflex action to stimuli has ceased.… _Third and fourth
minutes._--As death approaches, the thoracic and abdominal movements,
which are entirely inspiratory, become slower and slower as well as
shallower.… In these spasms which accompany the final gasps of an
asphyxiated animal, the head is thrown back, the trunk straightened or
arched backwards, and the limbs are extended, while the mouth gapes and
the nostrils dilate.”--_Handbook for the Physiological Laboratory_, p.
320.

“In a curarised rabbit, in which artificial respiration is maintained in
the usual way, an incision is made in the middle line, extending from
the upper third of the sternum to the upper end of the trachea. The
external jugular vein of one side is then brought into view, tied in two
places, and divided between ligatures.… Both ganglia having been thus
prepared with as little loss of time as possible, the sympathetic and
vagus nerves are divided, and the medulla oblongata (spinal cord) is then
divided.”--_Ibid._, p. 278.

“Fix the point of the chisel in the middle line of the skull (of a
rabbit) just behind the protuberance, and bore through the bone,
moving the handle of the instrument from side to side in order to
assist its passage, but not pressing with too great force. When the
skull has been penetrated, push the chisel downwards and forwards
through the cerebellum.… In half-an-hour or an hour afterwards test for
sugar.”--_Ibid._, p. 515.

“The bile in guinea-pigs is secreted in very large quantities.… When the
bile-duct is tied the guinea-pigs die in less than twenty-four hours; but

Calls attention to a discrepancy between two statements of Professor
Schiff: one stating that the dogs made no noise because they were not

“A number of rabbits were deprived of food until they ate dead frogs
thrown into their hutch. The object of this experiment was to show that

“M. Vulpian has recently made a large number of experiments to ascertain
the degree and character of the mechanical excitability of the grey
cortex of the brain. In mammals, dog, cat, and rabbit, in the normal
condition, he could never produce in this way the slightest movement
either in the limbs of the opposite side, or in those of the same side.
The mechanical stimulation was produced by rubbing the surface of
the cortex with a small sponge, or a fragment of amadou, or with the
points of dissection forceps.… If therefore movement resulted from such
stimulation in the experiments of Couty, the effect must have been purely
accidental or the consequence of some experimental error. The results
were also negative when Vulpian repeated the experiments after having
produced inflammation of the surface of the sigmoid gyrus by tincture of
cantharides, by essence of mustard or by nicotine.”--_Lancet_, Sept. 16,
1882, p. 453.

“I have made the section of the facial nerve at its entrance into the
internal auditory meatus, in several dogs, … in other dogs I succeeded
in dividing the facial nerve near its real origin, below the floor of
the fourth ventricle. The results were absolutely identical … I had to
undertake other experiments to find out what would be the effect of the
inter cranian section of the trigeminal nerve on the chorda tympani.
These experiments were made on rabbits. Although numerous, they gave
but few significant results, because several of the animals did not
live long enough after the operation for the divided nerves to show any
very decided changes; or else because in several of them, the section
of the nerve was far from being complete.”--Acad. des Sciences, April,

“If we could hope in diseased women for the same series of changes as
have been observed in healthy dogs and rabbits, we might agree more
completely with the conclusions of the German experimenters. But it
is one thing to remove a piece of a uterine horn, or a healthy ovary,
or a bit of omentum or mesentery, from a dog or a rabbit, and a very
different thing to remove a large uterine or ovarian tumour from a woman
whose general health has been more or less affected by the growth of the
tumour.”--_Diseases of the Ovaries_, London, 1872, p. 372.

“I made experiments upon animals for which I have been vilified, but for
which I do not reproach myself.… They corroborate what was known before,
that abdominal wounds well adjusted unite readily. This was not what I
wanted. They proved more, and were the visible standing evidence which I
did want--that, though the other tissues might be brought together, if
the cut edges of the peritoneum were left free, they retracted, direct
union did not take place, and secondary evil consequences resulted.…
Without this convincing demonstration in my hands, I might have gone on
for years, bowing to precepts and oblivious of principles, sometimes
taking up the peritoneum and sometimes leaving it loose, with perplexity
to myself and danger to my patients.”--_Ovarian and Uterine Tumours_,
London, 1882, pp. 197-98.

“Fifteen years after my first operation (in 1842), T. S. Wells came
to Manchester to be present at one of my operations, and made many
inquiries, amongst which--‘Did I include the peritoneum in my interrupted
sutures?’ I replied, ‘Certainly;’ and gave as my reason, that in
two cases where the suture had not included the peritoneum hernial
protrusions had followed. I also added, that peritonitis could only
be set up _once_, whether the sutures included the peritoneum or not.
I was for some time after in correspondence with Mr. Wells, but never
heard of vivisection in connection with ovariotomy, nor can I perceive
any advantage that ovariotomy has received from such experiments. All
my operations from first to last have shown the same average amount of
success--about 75 per cent. I have never practised nor yet countenanced
vivisection. I have given up operating after 400 cases and about 100
deaths.”--_Letter of Dr. Clay, dated April 6th, 1880._

“The whole progress of abdominal surgery dates from the first successful
case of ovariotomy performed by Robert Houston in 1701. Failing to see
the lesson taught by this, and led astray by vivisection, no further
success was achieved till 1809, by Ephraim McDowell, and it was not till
1867 that any substantial gain was made. Disregarding all the conclusions
of experiment, Baker Brown showed us how to bring our mortality of
ovariotomy down to 10 per cent., and again, in 1876, Keith proved that
it might be still further reduced. The methods of this reduction were
such as only experience on human patients could indicate; experiments on
animals could and did teach nothing, for operations have been performed
on thousands of animals every year for centuries, and nothing whatever
has been learnt from this wholesale vivisection.”--Lawson Tait, F.R.C.S.,

[It was reported in the _British Medical Journal_ and the _Lancet_
that at a meeting of the Physiological Section of the International
Medical Congress, held in London in 1881, Professor Ferrier had shown
two monkeys, a portion of whose cortex had been removed by himself.
As Professor Ferrier had no license for vivisection at the time, a
prosecution was instituted against him for a breach of the law. When the
case was brought into Court, the _onus_ was shifted on to Professor Yeo,
who was a licensed vivisector. Below is a comparison between the facts as
reported and the sworn evidence of the reporter of the one journal and
the editor of the other:--]

_British Medical Journal._

PUBLISHED REPORT, 20th August, 1881.

The members were shown two of the monkeys, a portion of whose cortex
had been removed by Professor Ferrier. Concerning the first of these,
Professor Ferrier said it had been his desire to remove as completely
as possible the whole of the psycho-motor region. Whether in this he
had succeeded perfectly could not be learnt for certainty until after a
_post-mortem_ examination had been made.

REPORTER’S SWORN EVIDENCE. 17th November, 1881.

Q. Did Professor Ferrier offer to exhibit two of the monkeys upon which
he had so operated?

A. At the Congress, no.

Q. Did he subsequently?

A. No; he showed certain of the members of the Congress two monkeys at
King’s College.

Q. What two monkeys?

A. Two monkeys upon which an operation had been performed.

Q. By whom?

A. By Professor Yeo.

_Lancet._

PUBLISHED REPORT, 8th October, 1881.

“The interest attaching to the discussion was greatly enhanced by the
fact that Professor Ferrier was willing to exhibit two monkeys which he
had operated upon some months previously.”…

“In startling contrast to the dog were two monkeys exhibited by Professor
Ferrier. One of them had been operated upon in the middle of January,
the left motor area having been destroyed. There had resulted from the
operation right sided hemiplegia, with conjugate deviation of eyes and
of head. Facial paralysis was at first well marked, but ceased after a
fortnight. From the first there had been paralysis of the right leg,
though the animal was able to lift it up. The arm it had never been
able to use. Lately, rigidity of the muscles of the paralysed limbs had
been coming on. The other monkey, as a consequence of paralysis of its
auditory centres, was apparently entirely unaffected by loud noises, as
by the firing of percussion caps in close proximity to its head.”

COUNSEL’S STATEMENT. 17th November, 1881.

Dr. WAKLEY, _sworn, examined by Mr. Waddy_:--

Q. Are you the editor of the _Lancet_?

A. I am.

Q. Can you tell me who it was furnished his Report?

A. I have the permission of the gentleman to give his name, Professor
Gamgee, of Owen’s College, Manchester.

Mr. WADDY: What I should ask is that one might have an opportunity of
calling Professor Gamgee.

Mr. GULLY: I have my reasons for objecting to this. We have communicated
with Professor Gamgee and I know very well that he will say precisely
what was said by Dr. Roy.

“At a meeting of the Physiological Section of the International Medical
Congress held in London in 1881, Professor Goltz exhibited a dog, and
Professors Ferrier and Yeo a monkey; from the brain of the dog a large
area of the cortex had been removed without producing any such effect as,
according to Professor Goltz, would necessarily result if the theory, as
usually held, of the localisation of function of the cortex were true;
from the brain of the monkey a definite part of the so-called motor area
had been removed, and a localised paralysis produced--a paralysis which,
according to Professors Ferrier and Yeo, could not result if that theory
were not true.”--“_On the Cortical Areas removed from the Brain of a Dog

condition of the lungs. It is to be experimentally proved why birds
die after this operation.… As my experiments in many points contradict
those of Eichhorst, I will here shortly give the results of over eighty
experiments on birds principally pigeons. My completed work, which was
awarded the prize by the Medical Faculty on the 18th of Jan., will
shortly appear.”--_Centralbl. f. d. Med. Wiss._, 1879, p. 99.

“I wish to communicate to the Society the results that I have obtained
by the ablation of the mammæ in animals. Dogs and rabbits with their
six or eight mammæ were unable to survive these experiments. I chose in
preference guinea-pigs, which have, as is known, only two mammæ, and in
which the disposition of the ducts renders the operation easy, I might
almost say harmless, even during the period of lactation; for out of six
females operated on in the month of September not one died, and all of
them are still to-day subject to observation.”--_Report of the Meeting
of the Soc. de Biologie, December 20, 1873_, “_Gaz. Méd. de Paris_,”
1874, p. 36.

“I have myself made a fair number of experiments relative to the
innervation of the mammary glands on female guinea-pigs.… Considering
the contradictory results, it would be well to describe the experiments
before arriving at any conclusions.… Experiment No. 1, June 10,
1874.--Guinea-pig in lactation. The mammary nerve on one side is laid
bare, and insulated by means of a thread. The animal exhibits signs
of acute pain, especially when the nerve is stimulated by an electric
current; but the stimulation, prolonged during 10 minutes, produces no
appreciable effect on the teats nor on the amount of milk secreted. I
divided the nerve, and on the following day, June 11, there was as much
milk in one gland as in the other; nor did the electric stimulation
re-applied to both ends of the divided nerve produce any apparent effect
on the glandular function.… I have selected these five experiments
from those I had noted down in my book, as I made them under varying
conditions. In all of them the results were negative.… Rochrig observed
that in the goat the effects were different--as M. Lafont had said--which
proves once more that the conclusions arrived at must not be generalized,
and that the phenomena may vary considerably according to the species
of animal.”--“_De l’Innervation de la Mamelle_,” _Report de la Soc. de
Biologie, October 25, 1879_, “_Gaz. Méd. de Paris_,” 1879, p. 593.

1.F.

1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
works not protected by U.S. copyright law in creating the Project

warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of
damages. If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement
violates the law of the state applicable to this agreement, the

Defect you cause.

Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg™

Project Gutenberg™ is synonymous with the free distribution of
electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
from people in all walks of life.

Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg™’s
goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg™ collection will
remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
and permanent future for Project Gutenberg™ and future
generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see
Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at www.gutenberg.org.

Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation

The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non-profit
501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
Revenue Service. The Foundation’s EIN or federal tax identification
number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent permitted by
U.S. federal laws and your state’s laws.

The Foundation’s business office is located at 809 North 1500 West,
Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887. Email contact links and up
to date contact information can be found at the Foundation’s website
and official page at www.gutenberg.org/contact

Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
Literary Archive Foundation

Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without widespread
public support and donations to carry out its mission of
increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest
array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
status with the IRS.

The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state
visit www.gutenberg.org/donate.

While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
approach us with offers to donate.

International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.

Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation
methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate.

Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg™ electronic works

Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
Gutenberg™ concept of a library of electronic works that could be
freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
distributed Project Gutenberg™ eBooks with only a loose network of
volunteer support.

Project Gutenberg™ eBooks are often created from several printed
editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
edition.

Most people start at our website which has the main PG search
facility: www.gutenberg.org.

This website includes information about Project Gutenberg™,
including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
