The question was closed by Mr. Jacops, who called Mr. Roll 
to the chair for the discussions upon tuberculous phthisis. 
In taking the chair Mr. Roll expresssed his thanks, and Ins fears 
that the limited time at the disposal of the Congress would 
preclude a thorough' discussion of the subject, which he hoped 
would be placed first on the programme of the fifth international 
meeting. He offered his thanks to Mr. Lydtin for his important 
report of the subject. 
The meeting then adjourned after a short general discussion. 
When called to order at 2:30 p. n. the President announced 
that the Minister of the Interior would preside over the 
meeting at three o’clock, and that he has been asked if there 
would be a fifth Congress. The Congress upon consultation an¬ 
swered affirmatively. The date and place of that meeting would be 
decided at a later moment. Returning to the order of the day, he 
recalled the importance of the subject, viz : tuberculosis, so ably 
reported upon by Mr. Lydtin. In the name of Congress and that 
of Mr. Roll, he moved a vote of thanks to the author of the report, 
which he was assured, would furnish a solid base for a part of the 
labors of the Congress. 
Mr. Lydtin said, “ Gentlemen, I appreciate very highly the com¬ 
pliments paid me by our President and the flattering opinions here 
accorded, and so much the more so, that they are offered by two 
great masters in veterinary science, Messrs. Roll and Bouley. They 
will sustain me in the hard and laborious work I have undertaken, 
and in which I see the only road to progress for our science and 
profession.
