 TWENTY-SEVENTH ANNUAL REPORT. 
 
 The Committee of the London Anti- Vivisection Society, 
 in submitting their twenty-seventh Annual Report to the 
 members and supporters, congratulate them on the progress 
 made during the past twelve months. For though to some 
 the progress of the cause of opposition to scientific cruelty 
 seems to be slow, nevertheless, when a full estimate is made 
 of all the difficulties with which the cause has to contend, 
 nothing but congratulation can be expressed at the result of 
 our efforts. 
 
 A TRUCULENT SCIENCE. 
 
 Twenty-seven years ago, when the Society was founded, 
 the great school of humane thought which exists to-day was 
 largely non-existent, it had to be built up painfully stone by 
 stone, and the elementary education of the public at large had 
 to be undertaken under the gravest disadvantages. The early 
 founders of the anti-vivisection movement were few in num- 
 bers, and they had to contend not only with the ignorance of 
 the whole public, and the indifference of the greater portion of 
 it, but with the active hostility of the then growing school of 
 scientific research. For, though the vivisectors in Great 
 Britain and Ireland were then few in numbers, they benefited 
 by the growing admiration of the public for scientific enter- 
 prise, a public which had not learnt to discriminate between 
 science which was objectionable, and that which was unobjec- 
 tionable. Gradually, but quietly, asserting themselves, the 
 devotees of the black art became known as " The Society 
 for the Advancement of Medicine by Research," and, with the 
 active assistance of sympathisers, produced results which were 
 far-reaching in the interests of vivisection. For the vivi- 
 sectors to a large extent fascinated the medical profession and 
 captured the Universities and the Royal Society ; they 
 obtained many posts on the staffs of hospitals, they 
 became represented in Parliament by nominees of the 
 British Medical Association and, latterly, through the 
 London University, "'^ and they obtained the ear not only of 
 the Press, but of Government departments. x\long with this 
 they developed a spirit of audacious pretension, which led the 
 
 Sir Michael Foster in 1901. 
 
 B 
 
lO 
 
 late Sir Andrew Clark, in 1883, to describe their operations 
 as " science, drunken with success and drivelling with 
 prophecies.""' This attitude has become stereotyped. The 
 mouths of the vivisectors are full of promises. Fables of 
 cures, and remedies of doubtful utility, have issued peren- 
 nially from the vivisection laboratories. 
 
 GROWING MISTRUST OF THE PUBLIC. 
 
 The general public, in their eagerness to believe any fairy 
 tale of science emanating from vivisectional centres, have, in 
 the shortness of their memories, forgotten the failures, and for 
 a long time failed to learn the lesson that this particular phase 
 of scientific inquiry and research was fruitful in illusions and 
 fraught with danger to the art of surgery and the science of 
 medicine. There is reason to hope, however, that they are 
 now awakening to the necessity of allowing time to test the 
 truth of the "marvellous" results attributed to experiments 
 on living animals. It is to be hoped that this spirit of healthy 
 criticism and scepticism, which the Society does its best to 
 engender, will go on and increase, and that the public will not 
 prove in the future, as in the past, so receptive to claims 
 advanced oftentimes on a very slender basis of success, and 
 prematurely admitted into the category of successful scientific 
 discoveries. 
 
 A BASE AND BLATANT MATERIALISM. 
 
 At the present time your Society are glad to note that the 
 Christian Churches are becoming alarmed at the pretensions 
 of scientific authority, and are more and more inclined to test 
 the question of vivisection from the old standpoint of the 
 moral law, and, in many cases, are denying to vivisection 
 any moral sanction. For this your Committee are indeed 
 grateful ; they feel that the basis on which the Society was 
 founded — the moral unlawfulness of vivisection — is 
 becoming more and more recognized by the Christian 
 Churches and the public alike, and they are encouraged to 
 hope that, as the years go on, this feeling will deepen, and 
 assist very largely in the suppression and overthrow of a 
 practice which owes its inception to barbarism, and which has 
 developed in materialism of the lowest possible order, more 
 especially in that particular phase of materialism which is 
 concerned only with the miere utilitarian aspects of any 
 question or practice. Our Society was founded, and has been 
 maintained, by those who believe in the moral government of 
 the world. Our opposition to vivisection has always been 
 based on moral grounds, and in protesting, therefore, against 
 this base form of materialism, which is so interwoven with 
 
 ->' British Medical Journal, February 3rd, 1883. 
 
 II 
 
 vivisection, your Committee do not lose sight of the fact that 
 the great Free-thought advocate, the late Col. Robert IngersoU, 
 of America, himself criticised this low and sordid concept of 
 human life, and denounced vivisection in these significant and 
 powerful words : — 
 
 "Vivisection is the inquisition— the hell — of science. 
 All the cruelty which the human — or rather the inhuman 
 — heart is capable of inflicting is in this one word. Be- 
 low this there is no depth. This word lies like a coiled 
 serpent at the bottom of the abyss. . . . 
 
 " It is not necessary for a man to be a specialist in 
 order to have and express his opinion as to the right or 
 wrong of vivisection. It is not necessary to be a scientist 
 or a naturalist to detest cruelty and to love mercy. Above 
 all the discoveries of the thinkers, above all the in- 
 ventions of the ingenious, above all the victories of fields 
 of intellectual conflict, rise human sympathy and a sense 
 of justice. 
 
 ** It may be that the human race might be physically 
 improved if all the sickly and deformed babies were killed, 
 and if all the paupers, liars, drunkards, thieves, villains, 
 and vivisectionists were murdered. All this might, in a 
 few ages, result in the production of a generation of 
 physically perfect men and women ; but what would such 
 beings be worth — men and women healthy and heartless, 
 muscular and cruel — that is to say, intelligent wild 
 beasts ? 
 
 " Never can I be the friend of one who vivisects his 
 fellow-creatures. I do not wish to touch his hand. 
 
 " When the angel of pity is driven from the heart; 
 when the fountain of tears is dry, the soul becomes a 
 serpent crawling in the dust of the desert." — From the 
 '' Chronicle of St. George,'' U.S.A., May, 1891. 
 
 NO LIMIT TO PAINFUL EXPERIMENTS. 
 
 It is surely a matter of very grave concern for the moral 
 progress of our country when Science, even in one phase of 
 inquiry, admits no limitation to its fields of research or the 
 extent of its power to inflict suffering on the sub-human races 
 of creation, if only some knowledge is gained thereby. 
 
 The late Dr. W. B. Carpenter, Registrar of London 
 University, a man of great scientific weight in his day, when 
 asked as a witness before the Royal Commission (1875-6) if 
 he would ** put any limit on the painful character of the experi- 
 ments to be made for a scientific purpose," answered, *' I 
 should certainly justify the infliction of any amount of pain 
 for a sufficient purpose" (Question 5603). And although 
 

 12 
 
 he went on to admit that he had himself seen, in certain 
 instances, " a perfect callousness to animal suffering before 
 the introduction of anaesthetics,"^^ "a callousness which 
 
 very strongly repelled me that, I think, does not 
 
 constitute any adequate reason against the performance of 
 well-considered experiments with a definite object." 
 
 Such a phase of scientific inquiry, under these circum- 
 stances, can only be described as antagonistic to all the best 
 and noblest attributes of human nature, as absolutely opposed 
 to the highest progress of the human race, and fraught with 
 the gravest dangers to morality, humanity, religion, and all 
 the kindly and sweeter virtues of life. 
 
 THE AWAKENING CHURCHES. 
 
 It will be observed from the foregoing that the task of the 
 Committee has been one of exceptional difficulty and trial, 
 which has not been lessened by the fact that the Christian 
 laity has been largely uninstructed or misinformed on this 
 grave question, for your Committee feel they have been some- 
 what deserted by many of those to whom tney had a right to 
 look for help and encouragement, namely, those who lead and 
 direct the Christian Churches of the country. Happily the 
 signs of the times are propitious ; not all of the leaders of 
 religious thought in this country have succumbed to the 
 dictation and pretensions of the professors of vivisection, and 
 evidence is accumulating on every hand of the ever-deepening 
 conviction in the religious world that vivisection is an 
 intolerable, inhuman, and immoral branch of scientific inquiry, 
 leading to the gravest moral difficulties, and dangerous alike 
 to the moral health of the nation and to medical science. 
 In the manifold efforts put forward to convince the public 
 of these dangers your Society has had a large share. A glance 
 back over the character and the number of the men and 
 women who have supported the Society by voice and pen 
 shows at once that the Cause of Mercy has not been without 
 its witnesses, even in its darkest days, and the past history of 
 the Society has been hallowed by memories of many good 
 men and women, who have done their utmost to stem the tide 
 of cruelty, and to stimulate the ideals of mercy, compassion, 
 and justice. 
 
 It is incredible to many persons that in an age given 
 over so largely to higher education, such a barbarous 
 practice as vivisection should exist, and that methods which 
 disgraced the Dark Ages, still survive in days when there 
 is so much talk of the progress of the civilization of the 
 world. 
 
 13 
 THE APPEAL TO THE PEOPLE. 
 
 The question naturally arises. How are we to adequately 
 
 grapple with the evil which is in our midst ? It is admitted 
 
 that the evil has grown and that it is still growing, and the 
 
 appeal which your Committee have had to make from time to 
 
 time to the public conscience has not infrequently been met 
 
 in a manner which suggested that that conscience was not so 
 
 sensitive as it should be to the call of justice and mercy. 
 
 Your Committee are glad to report, however, on surveying 
 
 the whole situation, and fortified by an ever-accumulating 
 
 experience, that the appeal does not always fall on deaf 
 
 ears, that when it is made from the platform to large bodies 
 
 of the people it is never made in vain. The masses of the 
 
 people, when the appeal is properly made to their sentiment 
 
 of pity and compassion, respond in a manner which suggests 
 
 that the sordid materialistic spirit which is the very basis of 
 
 vivisection is repugnant to their moral sense, and repugnant 
 
 to that divine sentiment of pity, which is, for a wise purpose, 
 
 engrafted deeply in human hearts. And while the battle 
 
 against scientific cruelty has been fierce and unremitting, 
 
 those who are engaged in the forefront of the battle are 
 
 cheered on every hand by the growing evidences of sympathy 
 
 with your Society's work. The abounding vitality of the 
 
 Cause, particularly in large centres of population, where the 
 
 sorrows incidental to life enter largely into the existence of 
 
 people, disprove the fears of the weak-kneed brethren, 
 
 who throw up their hands in despair, and who call for 
 
 compromise. Your Committee do not find evidence of any 
 
 desire in the public mind for compromise on this question 
 
 when not only the facts of vivisection but the fearful possi- 
 
 bihties of its abuse are adequately realized. It is untrue to 
 
 say that the public, when made aware of the practice and 
 
 its possibilities, are satisfied with suggestions of compromise. 
 
 They are not. Their call is for the suppression of vivisection 
 
 in order that its dreadful possibilities may have no chance 
 
 of realization. 
 
 a 
 
 NO SURRENDER. 
 
 91 
 
 '"Certificate A is granted to vivisectors by the Home Secretary, 
 *' special for experiments without anasthetics.'' 
 
 It has been the contention of your Committee for years past 
 that no suggestion of compromise must ever emanate from 
 them, and they affirm once more that they will never accede 
 to anything less which may leave open the door of abuse. 
 As Mr. J. H. Levy pointed out at one of the recent receptions 
 of your Committee at their headquarters in London, it is a 
 mistaken policy to suggest a compromise, where great prin- 
 ciples are at stake ; such suggestions come mainly from those 
 who wish to see what they regard as the " worst abuses " put 
 under foot in order that the practice may still continue under 
 what they profess to regard as "adequate safes^uards," but 
 
^4 
 
 which your Committee, in their experience of this, and guided 
 by the experience of other great movements, can only regard 
 as a mirage for the promoters of the Cause at large. In 1876 
 the founders of the Society hoisted the flag of legal prohibition 
 That flag has never been hauled down ; it never can be hauled 
 down without the consent of the members of the Society. 
 Your Committee are glad to be able to place on record the 
 fact that their members have never asked for a different policy 
 to be pursued from that which is being carried out, and that 
 those who work most strenuously, and whose lives are devoted 
 to this Cause, are the most determined that it never shall be 
 abandoned in the face of the enemy, particularly at a 
 time when the necessity is greater than ever for the clear, 
 bold, and determined assertion of the principle of total 
 
 SUPPRESSION. 
 
 OUR BILL IN PARLIAMENT. 
 
 The question, therefore, arises as to what are the best 
 means for securing the promotion of the Cause. Your Com- 
 mittee can only reiterate with deeper conviction than ever the 
 old watchwords of the Society, Educate ! Educate ! ! 
 Educate ! ! ! In this way public opinion is informed and 
 created, representing a weight which candidates for Parlia- 
 ment, and even Parliament and Government themselves, dare 
 not ignore. The Bill which your Committee promoted five 
 years ago will, in all probability, be introduced in the next 
 session of Parliament, but they would, at the same time, 
 point out very clearly that the greatest chance of success 
 which any such measure can obtain will be best obtained 
 when they can send a medical man into Parliament to 
 pilot the measure through the House of Commons. The 
 subject is one involving very deep and careful study, its 
 ramifications are so various, its pitfalls so numerous, that the 
 average lay Member of ParHament has neither the time nor 
 the opportunity to undertake the care and the labour which 
 such a measure involves. For, although the Cause of the 
 Society rests entirely upon a moral basis, the House of 
 Commons is an institution in which this consideration does 
 not always obtain a first and foremost place. The spirit of 
 the age is utilitarian, and though your Society's Cause may 
 be argued entirely on moral grounds by any independent 
 layman, at the same time it would be a great gain to the 
 Cause if a medical man could be sent to the House of 
 Commons to represent our case, even from the point of view 
 of medical authority. 
 
 THE SINEWS OP WAR. 
 
 Meanwhile, outside Parliament, the work of the Society is 
 being carried on with the utmost vigour and pertinacity. It 
 
 r, 
 
 15 
 
 is not all show work, and it is very uphill work, and the only 
 limitation to the Society's operations is the limitation of funds. 
 Your Committee are loth to appeal to their supporters who 
 have so generously and so unwearyingly assisted them in the 
 past, for further increases of annual help, but they very 
 respectfully suggest to their supporters a method by which 
 they may greatly swell the funds of the Society, and thus 
 enable it to do that greater share of work which the Committee 
 are always anxious to do. If the members of the Society, no 
 matter how small a sum they subscribe, will make it their 
 business each to obtain at least one new member every year, 
 or, in default, to double their subscription, the Society's work 
 will vastly increase, because those who have to carry out 
 your Committee's directions are most desirous to do even 
 more than they now accomplish. 
 
 LEGACIES. 
 
 Charities such as ours depend very largely upon legacies. 
 Those received last year were few in number, and your 
 Committee would very earnestly lay this matter before their 
 wealthy friends and sympathizers who are in a position to 
 benefit the Society and thereby promote the Cause, by 
 making the necessary provision in their Wills. The Com- 
 mittee deeply deplore the loss of considerable sums by the 
 procrastination of friends who made promises which they 
 neglected to fulfil. 
 
 THE BROWN INSTITUTE. 
 
 A matter which has always been a great grievance to the 
 supporters of the cause has been the existence of the Brown 
 Institute in the Wandsworth Road, London. If, what your 
 Committee believe to have been the intention of the late Mr. 
 Thomas Brown, of Dublin, whose generosity enabled this 
 building to be provided, had been carried out, the Brown 
 Institute would have been a hospital for the cure, the 
 alleviation, and the study of the diseases of animals, but as it 
 stands it is an infirmary on one side, and a vivisectional 
 laboratory on the other, and your Committee are advised that 
 the provision of the latter is not in accordance with the well- 
 known desires and views of Mr. Brown. They are glad, 
 therefore, to be able to record that the Royal Society for 
 the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, recognising its 
 obvious duty in the matter, is about to take legal proceedings 
 against the Senate of the University of London, who are 
 the responsible authority for what is held to be a grave abuse 
 of a great and charitable trust. Your Committee fervently 
 hope that the result may be the dispossession of thevivisector. 
 
i6 
 
 OUR VAN CAMPAIGN. 
 
 The Society's Van, the only one of its kind in existence, 
 is now about to enter on its 6th summer tour. The work of 
 the Van is invaluable in a variety of ways, because it brings 
 the cause before numbers of people who are never reached in 
 any other manner, and it also tends to maintain an unbroken 
 continuity of work from year's end to year's end. Formerly 
 meetings commenced in the autumn and ended with the 
 spring, but no sooner is our winter and spring campaign 
 concluded than the Van takes up the thread of the work arid 
 carries it on through the summer, and it may truly be said 
 that the track of the Van across country is white with the 
 literature which the Van circulates on its educational mission. 
 Opportunity may here be taken to record with gratitude and 
 thankfulness the services which Mr. and Mrs. Vernon 
 Tracy again rendered last season to this portion of the 
 Society's operations, and your Committee feel that a special 
 vote of thanks is due to them from the Society and the Com- 
 mittee for their self-sacrificing and whole-hearted efforts to 
 assist the great cause in which they are so deeply interested. 
 Your Committee most fervently appeal to their members for 
 increased support to the Van Fund, support which, during 
 the past seasons, has not been commensurate with the amount 
 and value of the work done by its agency. 
 
 THE WINTER'S WORK. 
 
 Never before has the winter work of the Society been so 
 busy or widespread, and funds for this are most urgently 
 needed if the work is to be efficiently and adequately done. 
 
 The lantern lectures have been conducted, as in the 
 previous winter, by the Secretary, and large meetings have 
 been addressed with successful results on behalf of the cause. 
 Your Committee are glad to record one particular instance 
 showing the value of a great educational effort and the success 
 which follows a well-organized meeting when outside help is 
 obtained. They refer especially to a great gathering in the 
 district of Stratford, where the Town Hall, with accommoda- 
 tion for 2,000 persons, was filled almost exclusively by people 
 belonging to the working-classes in the district of Stratford 
 on the borders of East London, The success of this was 
 considerably due to Councillor McAllen (of Stratford) and his 
 friends. This experience could be, no doubt, repeated if your 
 Committee were in possession of the funds to enable them to 
 hold such meetings when opportunities are favourable, as they 
 frequently are. But it is impossible for any one person to do 
 more than a certain amount without assistance, and the strain 
 placed upon the Society's staff in the winter is at all times 
 very considerable, and sometimes far greater than is desirable. 
 
 17 
 
 A generous increase of support would enable your Committee 
 to meet this difficulty, and to provide additional helpers when 
 necessary, as is frequently the case. 
 
 THE BRANCHES. 
 
 The work of the Branches during the year has been 
 carried on with very great vigour, and considerable success. 
 Your Committee are glad to announce the formation of a 
 powerful new Branch in Gloucester, altogether due to the 
 efforts of our friend, Dr. Hadwen and his influential 
 supporters in that town, and your Committee are happy to 
 congratulate the Society on possessing what is one of the 
 finest and most effective Branches in the kingdom. This is 
 probably due to the presence of a popular and influential 
 medical man, and your Committee's one regret is that they 
 have not many other centres in the kingdom, having such 
 genuine helpers as Dr. Hadwen to take the lead. At Croydon 
 a new Branch has recently been formed under the most 
 favourable auspices, following an address on the Sunday 
 afternoon to the Croydon Religious Discussion Society by 
 the Secretary, while new Branches have also been formed 
 in Dublin, Belfast, and Glasgow, and steps taken to form 
 others in different places in the kingdom. Meanwhile the old 
 Branches, such as those at Brighton and Hove, Eastbourne, 
 Buckingham, and East Devon, Hastings and St. Leonard's, 
 and Ealing, have carried on a most vigorous campaign, and 
 your Committee would especially draw attention to the 
 laborious efforts of their Branch Secretaries in all directions, 
 Mrs. Upham at Ealing, Miss Reid and Mr. Cutcliffe at 
 Dawlish, Miss Baddeley and the Misses Deane at Eastbourne, 
 Mrs. Boulton and Miss Skerritt at Hove, Mr. H. J. Snow at 
 Brighton, Miss Sylvester and Miss Ison at St. Leonard's and 
 Hastings, Miss Una Hadwen at Gloucester, and Mr. Hill at 
 Buckingham. Mr. Snow's work at Brighton has been extended 
 to Lewes and adjacent places, aided by lantern illustrations, 
 which have greatly increased the efficiency and interest of 
 Mr. Snow's efforts. In Ireland new Branches were formed 
 in February, and the efforts of Mrs. Hare in Dublin, and Mrs. 
 Milligen at Belfast, are worthy of the Society's deep and 
 hearty thanks. Indeed, the operations in Ireland are breaking 
 new ground for the Society's cause, and are all the more 
 necessary on account of the recently announced gift of Lord 
 Iveagh of a large sum of money to extend the laboratories in 
 connection with Dublin University. 
 
 Your Committee would bring specially to the attention of 
 their supporters the following speakers who have pleaded the 
 cause of the animals on the Society's platform during the 
 year:— Col. Sandys, M.P., Dr. Hadwen, Dr. Wall, Rev. 
 
 c 
 
i8 
 
 Conrad Noel, M.A., the Ven. Archdeacon of Lewes, Canon 
 Irvine, Sir Thomas Brady, Mrs. Ormiston Chant, Rev. W. 
 T. Turpin, Rev. Nevison Loraine, Surgeon-General Thornton, 
 Mr. A. G. Shiell, Mr. Herbert Burrows, Rev. J. Baird, Mr. 
 A. Maconachie, M.A., Barrister-at-law, Mr. J. Sutcliffe 
 Hurndall, M.R.C.V.S., Mr. Charles Mallet, Miss Woodward, 
 Councillor Mc Allen, Councillor McClean, Mr. H. J. Snow, 
 and others. 
 
 THE LITERARY DEPARTMENT. AND "THE 
 ANIMALS' GUARDIAN." 
 
 The Committee's literary output during the past year has 
 been maintained at high pressure, and from many quarters 
 the demand on the Society for literary help is at times almost 
 overwhelming. Your Committee are glad, however, to con- 
 gratulate the Society upon the popularity of its numerous 
 publications, which are regarded as indispensable to the 
 successful promotion of the cause at large. And further, the 
 increase of the Society's work has led to the enlargement and 
 improvement of their organ, the Animals'' Guardian, which, 
 under the editorship of the Secretary, is increasing in useful- 
 ness and interest month by month, and securing most 
 encouraging support and commendation. The Animals 
 Guardian costs the Society nothing except for the printing 
 and illustrations, the whole of the literary and editorial work 
 being done by the Secretary and his friendly helpers without 
 any expense to the Society. 
 
 While your Committee ara glad to record a considerable 
 accession of new members, they very deeply deplore the loss 
 of many old friends.

 They wish to place on record their deep sense of the 
 
 19 
 
 obligation the Society and the Cause were under to these 
 good friends, whose counsel and support they so much miss. 
 
 They have passed into the keeping of the Eternal Father 
 of all creation, and they have the reward of the just and 
 the merciful. 
 
 LAST WORDS. 
 
 Your Committee's last word in reviewing the work* of the 
 
 past year must be one of congratulation and hope. If it be 
 
 true of the British people that they never know when they 
 
 are beaten, it is equally true of your Committee that they 
 
 never recognize any impossibility in the task they have 
 
 undertaken. They have resolved that the work which 
 
 the Society was called into being to do shall be done. 
 
 The London Anti-vivisection Society exists to fight 
 
 a great moral evil, a crime against humanity, and a 
 
 most wicked injustice to those whom Mr. Herbert Spencer 
 
 has so admirably described as '' the sub-human races." 
 
 That work your Committee will, if re-elected to their posts, 
 
 be glad to continue during the ensuing year, in the firm hope 
 
 and belief that the members of the Society will respond as in 
 
 former years, and, if possible, with greater liberahty and 
 
 deeper resolution, to the call the Committee now make to 
 
 them, to strengthen their hands for the work they have to 
 
 do, and to resolve more firmly than ever that — since 
 
 total prohibition by law is the only adequate remedy 
 
 for this poisonous and corrupting evil, they will continue to 
 
 work for this, remembering the sacred trust bequeathed to 
 
 them by the venerated founders of the Society.

 :Mr. William Bingham, who is connected with the directorate of one 
 of the leading Insurance Companies in the City of London, said of the 
 London Anti-Vivisection Society and its work : — 
 
 " In the Annual Beport there is just one sentence that I should like 
 to draw your attention to. It says : ' We have had to educate the public, 
 and to do it always with small forces and inadequate means.' . • • .• 
 Now 1 marvel, when I see the small income of this Society, that it 
 manages to accomplish so much. It certainly does a wonderful amount 
 of work with a small amount of money."

 PLEASE NOTE 
 
 The late Mr. GEORGE CANDY, Q.C., speaking in April, 1899, said— 
 
 " Let me say one word about this Society. The reason why I am 
 on this platform of the London Anti- Vivisection Society is because it is the 
 only one that I know. I know of others, and I have not a single word to 
 say against them, but I know this one. I have known it for the last ten 
 years. I have been in times past nearly and intimately associated with 
 the Executive of the Society. I am not noiv, and for this reason. I 
 think that a public speaker carries more weight, and is more likely to be 
 listened to if he is not ojficially connected with any organisation whatever, 
 if he has no interest in it, and is perfectly free and unfettered when he 
 steps on a platform to say exactly what he thinks on the question with 
 which he is dealing. Now, I say, Mr. Chairman, that this Society — / 
 say nothing at all about other Societies — / say this Society really is 
 doijig good work. I will tell you what the work is. It has a most 
 indefatigable Secretary, and what is more than that, a gentleman with 
 discretion as ii'ell as courage, and therefore this Society in spreading, as 
 it is spreading, leaflets and pamphlets all over the face of the country, 
 both by post and by its van, which was started something like this time 
 last year, or a little later in the year, is doing very good work, because 
 it is rousing public curiosity, which is the first thing you have got to 
 do. All agitations, I do not care what they are, have first to overcome 
 the incurable, almost inveterate, apathy of the great English public.^''

 THE AN^STHETJC JUGGLE. 
 
 VIEWS OF EXPERTS ON THE POSSIBILITY, OR 
 
 NON-POSSIBILITY, OF EFFICIENT AND 
 
 HONEST ADMINISTRATION OF ANESTHETICS TO ANIMALS 
 
 PREPARED FOR OR UNDERGOING EXPERIMENTATION. 
 
 The following extracts are taken mainly from the official report 
 of the evidence given before the Royal Commission on Vivisection^ 
 question and answer being set forth. The name of the witness, or 
 writer f is set forth at the commencement of each statement. 
 
 Dr. LAUDER BRUNTON'S Evidence. 
 
 Dr. Lauder Brunton, speaking of a very long and 
 painful experiment on the secretion and circulation in the 
 submaxillary gland, states : *' I must say that you cannot do 
 the whole experiment under chloroform, you cannot show it 
 as you would under wourali (curare)." — Evid. Roy. Com, 
 (London, 1876). Q. 5>8ii. 
 
 Sir GEORGE BURROWS' Evidence. 
 
 Sir George Burrows, Bart., M.D. : " There are a certain 
 class of experiments which cannot be performed under 
 ansesthetics."— £z^/^. Roy. Com. (London, 1876). Q. 162. 
 
 Prof. RUTHERFORD'S Evidence. 
 
 " Chloroform was used during the preliminary operation in two 
 cases, but the stimulation of the liver which it induced rendered the 
 experiments worthless. On the other hand, we have abundantly 
 proved that the doses of curara administered in the experi- 
 ments have no influence on the biliary secretion, and do 
 not interfere with the effects of hepatic stimulants. It is 
 therefore an exceedingly valuable auxiliary in a research of 
 this nature." — From the Syllabus of Lectures on 
 Physiology, by Professor Rutherford, M.D., F.R.S., 
 Edinburgh University, 1897. The italics are in the original 
 from which the above quotation is taken. 
 
 Prof. Rutherford was asked : '* Could not that (experi- 
 ment on the dog's bile duct with drugs) have been performed 
 under anaesthetics ? — It could not have been performed, so 
 far as I know, under any other agency but curare, the object 
 being to keep the animal perfectly still. I do not think 
 
 47 
 
 chloroform, opium, or ether could have been administered." — 
 Evid. Roy. Com. Q. 2,908 and 2,932. 
 
 Prof. Rutherford was asked : " 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 experiment ? 
 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." — Evid. Roy. Com. (London, 
 1876). Q. 2,841-3. 
 
 Sir WILLIAM PERGUSSON'S Evidence. 
 
 Sir WiLLL\M Fergusson, Bart., F.R.S. : " I have very 
 strong ideas with reference to these experiments performed 
 under anaesthesia, as being far less valuable. I do not go in 
 with that view, which is very prevalent, that these experiments 
 may now be permitted because we have got anaesthesia to 
 prevent the pain. The experiment is not of the smallest value 
 during its performance. You cannot make a perfect experi- 
 ment on the animal until it is in its normal condition." — Evid. 
 Roy. Com. (London, 1876). Q. 1,077. 
 
 Sir MICHAEL FOSTER'S Evidence. 
 
 Prof. Michael Foster, M.D. : '* This can only be shown)in 
 the higher animals, the cat or dog being best adapted for the 
 purpose. The method adopted is this, the arches of one of 
 two vertebrae are carefully sawn through, or cut through with 
 the bone forceps, and the exposed roots very carefully freed 
 from the connective tissue surrounding them. If the animals 
 be strong, and have thoroughly recovered from the chloroform, 
 and from the operation, irritation of the peripheral stump of 
 the anterior root causes not only contraction in the muscles 
 supplied by the nerve, but also movements in other parts of 
 the body, indicative of pain or of sensations. On dividing the 
 mixed trunk . . . the contractions . . . cease, but the 
 general signs of pain or sensation still remain." — Handbook of 
 the rhysiological Laboratory (London, 1873), p. 403. 
 
 Dr. GIMSON'S Evidence. 
 
 Dr. W. GiMSON GiMSON : *' If sensation is deadened or 
 suspended by the use of anaesthetics, from the moment that the 
 anaesthetic agent enters the system, the whole organisation is 
 removed from its normal condition ; the data recorded during 
 such a state cannot be deemed reliable, and must lead to 
 
48 
 
 fallacies in building up any theory, nor is it fair or truthful 
 to hold up anaesthetics as a gilded bait to lure on the unwary. 
 To many the mention of chloroform ether, et alia, conveys the 
 idea of abolition of suffering, but ask the multitude, and 
 evidence v^ill at once be forthcoming that these blessings are 
 not unmitigated boons, nay, that they are up to certain points 
 extreme torture, and any one who has administered chloroform 
 frequently to dogs must have seen this latter statement borne 
 out with reference to them." — Vivisection and Painful Experiments 
 on Living Animals ; their U njustifiahility (London, 1879), p. 61. 
 
 Dr. W. GiMSON GiMSON : " The modern history of 
 anaesthetics dates back to the end of last century, when the 
 discoveries of Priestley, Black and Cavendish, created a new 
 era in the chemical world, and gave rise to a new branch of 
 therapeutics, called pneumatic medicine, whose votaries hopea 
 to cure diseases, and especially consumption, by the inhala- 
 tions of various kinds of gases. In following out this theory, 
 Humphry, afterwards Sir Humphry Davy, was, about 1800, 
 led to the conclusion that nitrous oxide (laughing gas) 
 appeared capable of destroying physical pain, so it might 
 probably be used with advantage during surgical operations. 
 This conclusion was arrived at by experiments upon himself 
 and not upon animals. Not until the year 1844 was the use 
 of this anaesthetic established, when a dentist, Horace Wells, 
 acting upon Davy's suggestion, inhaled the nitrous oxide 
 himself before one of his teeth was extracted, with the effect 
 of producing a complete unconsciousness of pain ; he also 
 administered it to several patients with the same beneficial 
 results." — Vivisections and Painful Experiments on Living Animals, 
 (London, 1879), pp. 126-7. 
 
 Dr. GEORGE HOGGAN'S Evidence. 
 
 Dr. HoGGAN was asked : " Now you have expressed in 
 letters that have appeared in the public press, the opinion 
 that anaesthetics, on the whole, have been rather curses than 
 benefits to animals ? I have. — Will you give me the grounds 
 of that opinion as briefly as you can ? Principally because, 
 as I have explained in those letters (which I have put in 
 before the Commission), the public have generally supposed 
 that anaesthetics were used, and they did not feel called upon 
 to make any demonstration to save animals from pain, and 
 while the animals were suffering pain all the time the public 
 really thought that nothing of the kind was going on, and 
 consequently anaesthetics had served more to lull the pubhc 
 than the animals. Those were nearly my words. And the 
 reasons given why anaesthetics were not so much used as 
 they were supposed to be, were first, that anaesthetics if given 
 to animals in many cases bring about a fatal result before the 
 experiment can be concluded, if given thoroughly, that is, to 
 
 ^ 
 
 49 
 
 say ; in the second place, that anaesthetics cannot very well 
 be given unless a special assistant is there for the purpose ; 
 and that these two things together cause so much annoyance 
 to the experimenter that he does not take the trouble of 
 thoroughly anaesthetising the animals. This leaves out of 
 sight that great class of experiments where anaesthetics would 
 interfere with the true result of the experiment ; and these 
 are very numerous."— £z;/^. Roy. Com. (London, 1876). 
 Q. 4,107-8. 
 
 *' The incalculable advantages which mankind has derived 
 from chloroform as a means of destroying the sense of pain 
 have remained a dead letter as regards the lower animals, in 
 consequence of the very unsatisfactory state of our know- 
 ledge of the line which separates insensibility from death, 
 especially in some of those classes of animals which are most 
 generally employed as the subjects of physiological experi- 
 mentation. Many of these die apparently before they can 
 become insensible through chloroform, some of them, indeed, 
 as soon as it has been administered. The practical conse- 
 quence of this uncertainty is, that complete and conscientious 
 anaesthesia is seldom even attempted, the animal getting at 
 most a slight whiff of chloroform, by way of' satisfying the 
 conscience of the operator, or of enabling him to make state- 
 ments of a humane character." — Letter in ''The Spectator,'' 
 May 2gth, 1875. 
 
 " We fearlessly affirm that none of the following classes of experi- 
 ments (each including innumerable operations, many of which 
 involve extreme torture) can be performed under complete and 
 genuine anaesthesia : — 
 
 " I. Those experiments which are concerned with the reflex 
 action from the sensory nerves. 
 
 "2. Those which are connected with the glandular secretions, 
 the liver, etc. 
 
 *' 3. Those on the digestion. 
 
 "4. Those on the heart and circulation. 
 
 " 5. Toxicological experiments (poisons). 
 
 "6. All pathological experiments (consisting in, the artificial 
 introduction of disease)."— " Anaesthetics and Vivisection," The 
 Zoophilist, May, 1885. 
 
 Dr. EMMANUEL KLEIN'S Evidence. 
 
 Dr. Klein was asked : " I suppose with rabbits you 
 would not use chloroform ? I use chloral hydrate ; but, as a 
 general rule, for my scientific investigations, I do not use 
 chloroform, or any other anaesthetic, except for convenience 
 
50 
 
 sake, in dogs and cats, and for no other animals as a general 
 rule. There may be exceptions, perhaps ; but as a general 
 rule, I think I am safe in saying I do not use it. — You gave it 
 as your opinion, that your views on the subject, although not 
 shared by the British public generally, were the views of the 
 British physiologists ? I would not say that distinctly, but I 
 know a few of them, and 1 think that is the view held by 
 them." — Evid. Roy. Com. (London, 1876). Q. 3,605-6. 
 
 Dr. ROBERT McDONNELL'S Evidence. 
 
 The late Dr. McDonnell stated: "In this particular 
 class of cases the experiments are on sensation (nerves) ; the 
 pain could not be avoided, therefore in that particular class of 
 cases. — Are there any of those which you have practised 
 yourself in which there has been prolonged pain ? No, not 
 prolonged pain, but unavoidable pain. I have repeated, at the 
 time that they were quite new and suh jtidice, the researches of 
 Dr. Brown-Sequard upon the spinal cord of animals. In 
 those cases I believe it is unavoidable to have suffering." 
 — Evid. Roy. Com. (London, 1876). Q. 4,487-8. 
 
 Sir THOMAS WATSON'S Evidence. 
 
 Sir Thomas Watson (Physician to the Queen) was 
 questioned by Lord Winmarleigh, who asked: "We may 
 presume that in those experiments (Sir C. Bell's, on the 
 nerves) the use of anaesthetics is quite useless, that it would 
 be of no effect? They would- defeat the object of the 
 experiment." Q. 49.— Sir John Karslake asked vSir Thomas 
 Watson : "I wished to ask you whether any other cases 
 sucfgest themselves to you than those which you have last 
 described in which the use of anaesthetics- would frustrate 
 the object of the experiment ? .... I should think 
 that the use of anaesthetics might vitiate the results of any 
 trials of poisons upon animals." — Evid. Roy. Com. (London, 
 1876). Q. 54-5. 
 
 Prof SCHAFER'S Evidence. 
 
 Prof. ScHAFER was asked : "Then may I take it there are 
 a great number of experiments which, supposing frogs to 
 be a sensitive animal, must cause a vast deal of pain, which 
 are not done under chloroform ? There is no doubt of 
 it. — And there is no precaution taken to diminish pain, if it 
 suffers pain ? I think I may say no special precaution." 
 — Evid. Roy. Com. (London, 1878). Q. 3,801-2. 
 
 51 
 
 Prof. PRITCHARD'S Evidence. 
 
 Prof. Pritchard, M.R.C.V.S., was asked: "Does your 
 experience extend to dogs ? Yes. — What is your opinion 
 about the sort of questions which I have put to you when 
 applied, not to horses, but to dogs ? With regard to dogs, I 
 should never think of applying chloroform at all ; I should 
 think it very unsafe to do so. The dog has an intermittent 
 pulsation ; the heart's action is intermittent." 
 
 " Lord Winmarleigh : Invariably ? — Invariably. They 
 appear for some time not to be under the influence of it at all, 
 and then suddenly they come under the influence of it, and we 
 find it impossible to bring them round. — Does any cruelty 
 attach to the death under these circumstances ? — I should 
 say not ; it is an awkward thing for the operator and for the 
 owner. 
 
 " Mr. FoRSTER : With regard to cats, what should you say 
 as to the use of chloroform ? — I have never administered it to 
 cats ; I do not think there would be the same risk. 
 
 " Chairman : Supposing you had a painful operation to 
 perform on a cat, you would use anaesthetics ? — I think so. 
 
 "Chairman: Do I rightly understand you to say that the 
 circulation of the dog being intermittent, there is much more 
 danger that the animal would never revive than there would 
 be in the human being? — Quite so." — Evid. Roy. Com. 
 (London, 1876). Q. 796-803. 
 
 Prof. GEORGE ROLLESTON. 
 
 The late Prof. George Rolleston, M.D. : "It is not so 
 easy a thing to know when you have an animal thoroughly 
 anaesthetised ; and what is more, some animals recover with 
 much greater rapidity than others of the same species from 
 the same doses of anaesthetics. . . . the whole question 
 of anaesthetising animals has an element of uncertainty about 
 it." — Evid, Roy. Com. (London, 1876). Q. 1,349-50. 
 
 Dr. DE NOE WALKER. 
 
 The late Dr. de Noe Walker: "When an experimenter 
 says, for example, as it is said in a very recent publication, 
 that * before and throughout these experiments anaesthetics 
 were used,' it is perfectly true ; but if by that you choose to 
 understand that while the animal lived and was experimented 
 
52 
 
 on he was throughout insensible, it is the greatest delusion 
 that ever wa.s."—Evid. Roy. Com. (London, 1876). Q. 1,810. 
 (As for instance, in Mr. Horsley's experiments for the 
 Hydrophobia Committee, in a footnote of his report (Appendix 
 A of Report) he says :—*' All the experiments performed in 
 this inquiry were thus " (alluding to the giving of chloroform) 
 '*made painless." Here Mr. Horsley should have said 
 operations not experiments ; for while the animal had 
 chloroform for the operative portion of the experiment, it 
 suffered the disease of rabies, unrelieved, of course, by any 
 anaesthetics.— Stanford Harris, M.R.C.S. 
 
 Br. BOREL'S View. 
 
 "Permit a vivisector, past and present, and future if it 
 were necessary for the good of science and mankind, to tell 
 those good people who believe seriously that the animals 
 experimented upon by M. Pasteur do not suffer, that they 
 are deceiving themselves. My personal experience of fifteen 
 years' practice gives me the right formally to deny the truth 
 of that. I have vivisected birds, horses, frogs, rabbits, 
 monkeys, and above all dogs; and I can affirm three 
 things : 
 
 "(i) That it is nearly completely impossible to employ 
 anaesthetics upon them so as to render them insensible, 
 as for example— ether, chloroform, chloral, opium 
 (morphine codeine), canabis indica (haschich), etc. 
 
 • " (2) That the sufferings of the animals are so great after 
 the experiments that they are altogether stupefied ; 
 the most ferocious dogs allow themselves to be 
 used, later on, with the indifference of sheep : one 
 must not absolutely confound their tranquillity with 
 the relief given to a man after a necessary surgical 
 operation, but as the apathy and indifference of a 
 martyr. I have experimented on mad dogs ; the 
 second time I placed them on the table they were as 
 gentle as rabbits. For the rest, it may be said in 
 passmg, mad dogs are already so ill that in general 
 they are very gentle. 
 
 "(3) The employment of curare far from diminishing 
 sensibility augments it exceedingly ; more than that 
 the use of it necessitates tracheotomy beforehand 
 to make them respire artificially, because the curare 
 totally paralyzes all voluntary movements, and thus 
 they would otherwise suffocate." 
 
 *' Any one who is accustomed to a laboratory, to physiology, 
 or to pathological experiments, knows that the animals 
 suffer when vivisected, and greatly, until death comes 
 to deliver them."— From a letter in the Pall Mall 
 Gazette, London, August 5th, 1899. 
 
 53 
 
 Note.— Because a vivisector, or his apologist, says—'' the 
 experiment was performed under ancesthetics,"— or— "in 
 a cases the animals were anaesthetised "—it does not at 
 all tollow that the animal was completely insensible to 
 pam, or that throus^hojit the whole experiment the animal 
 was profoundly under the influence of chloroform or 
 ether. Read carefully the views of Dr. Hoggan (pp 
 34-5). who was an expert and had had wide experience

 ''There are not a few who doubt whether all the agonies

 CHAPTER 77. 
 
 a D. 1376. An Act to Amend the Law Relating to Cruelty to Animals. 
 
 August 15//?, 1876. 
 
 WHEREAS it is expedient to amend the law relating to cruelty 
 to animals by extending it to the cases of animals which for medical, 
 physiological, or other scientific purposes are subjected when alive 
 to experiments calculated to inflict pain : 
 
 Be it enacted by the Queen's most Excellent Majesty, by and with 
 the advice and consent of the Lords Spiritual and Temporal, and 
 Commons, in this present Parliament assembled., and by the authority 
 of the same, as follows : 
 
 
 55 
 
 A.D. 1878. 
 
 1. This Act may be cited for all purposes as "The Cruelty to Short title. 
 Animals Act, 1876." 
 
 2. A person shall not perform on a living animal any experiment o/pa^nfuf^ 
 calculated to give pain, except subject to the restrictions imposed by experiments 
 this Act. Any person performing or taking part in performing any on animals, 
 experiment calculated to give pain, in contravention of this Act, 
 
 shall be guilty of an offence against this Act, and shall, if it be the 
 first offence, be liable to a penalty not exceeding fifty pounds, and if 
 it be the second or any subsequent offence, be liable, at the discre- 
 tion of the court by which he is tried, to a penalty not exceeding one 
 hundred pounds or to imprisonment for a period not exceeding three 
 months. 
 
 3. The following restrictions are imposed by this Act with General re- 
 respect to the performance on any living animal of an experiment perfo^SfanM*^ 
 calculated to give pain ; that is to say, of painful 
 
 (i) The experiment must be performed with a view to the 
 advancement by new discovery of physiological knowledge 
 or of knowledge which will be useful for saving or 
 prolonging life or alleviating suffering; and 
 
 (2) The experiment must be performed by a person holding such 
 
 licence from one of Her Majesty's Principal Secretaries of 
 State, in this Act referred to as the Secretary of State, as is 
 in this Act mentioned, and in the case of a person holding 
 such conditional licence as is hereinafter mentioned, or of 
 experiments performed for the purpose of instruction in a 
 registered place ; and 
 
 (3) The animal must during the whole of the experiment be under 
 
 the influence of some anaesthetic of sufficient power to 
 prevent the animal feeling pain ; and 
 
 (4) The animal must, if the pain is likely to continue after the 
 
 effect of the anaesthetic has ceased, or if any serious injury 
 has been inflicted on the animal, be killed before it recovers 
 from the influence of the anaesthetic which has been 
 administered ; and 
 
 (5) The experiment shall not be performed as an illustration ot 
 
 lectures in medical schools, hospitals, colleges, or elsewhere ; 
 and 
 
 (6) The experiment shall not be performed for the purpose of 
 
 attaining manual skill. 
 
 Provided as follows ; that is to say, 
 
 (i) Experiments may be performed under the foregoing pro- 
 visions as to the use of anaesthetics by a person giving 
 illustrations of lectures in medical schools, hospitals, o 
 colleges, or elsewhere, on such certificate being given as 
 in this Act mentioned, that the proposed experiments are 
 absolutely necessary for the due instruction of the persons 
 to whom such lectures are given with a view to their 
 acquiring physiological knowledge or knowledge which 
 will be useful to them for saving or prolonging life or 
 alleviating suffering ; and 
 
 experiments 
 on aninials. 
 
k.D. 1876. 
 
 Use of urari as 
 an anaesthetic 
 prohibited. 
 
 Special re- 
 strictions on 
 painful experi- 
 ments on dogs, 
 c^ts, &c. 
 
 Absolnte 
 prohibition 
 of public 
 exhibition 
 of painful 
 jxperiments 
 
 56 
 
 (2) Experiments may be performed without anaesthetics on 
 such certificate being given as in this Act mentioned that 
 insensibility cannot be produced without necessarily frus- 
 trating the object of such experiments ; and 
 
 v3) Experiments may be performed without the person who 
 performed such experiments being under an obligation to 
 cause the animal on which any such experiment is per- 
 formed to be killed before it recovers from the influence 
 of the anaesthetic on such certificate being given as in 
 this Act mentioned, that the so killing the animal would 
 necessarily frustrate the object of the experiment, and 
 provided that the animal be killed as soon as such object 
 has been attained ; and 
 
 (4) Experiments may be performed not directly for the advance- 
 ment by new discovery of physiological knowledge, or of 
 knowled^ie which will be useful for saving or prolonging 
 life or alleviating suffering, but for the purpose of testing a 
 particular former discovery alleged to have been made for 
 the advancement of such knowledge as last aforesaid, on 
 such certificate being given as is in this Act mentioned that 
 such testmg is absolutely necessary for the effectual 
 advancement of such knowledge. 
 
 4. The substance known as urari or curare shall not for the 
 purposes of this Act be deemed to be. an anaesthetic. 
 
 6. Notwithstanding anything in this Act contained, an experi- 
 ment calculated to give pain shall not be performed without 
 anaesthetics on a dog or cat, except on such certificate being given 
 as in this Act mentioned, stating, in addition to the statements 
 herein-before required to be made in such certificate, that for 
 reasons specified in the certificate the object of the experiment will 
 be necessarily frustrated unless it is performed on an animal similar 
 in constitution and habits to a cat or dog, and no other animal is 
 available for such experiment; and an experiment calculated to give 
 pain shall not be performed on any horse, ass, or mule except on 
 such certificate being given as in this Act mentioned that the object 
 of the experiment will be necessarily frustrated unless it is performed 
 on a horse, ass, or mule, and that no other animal is available for 
 such experiment. 
 
 6. Any exhibition to the general public, whether admitted on 
 payment of money or gratuitously, of experiments on living animals 
 calculated to give pain shall be illegal. 
 
 Any person performing or aiding in performing such experiments 
 shall be deemed to be guilty of an offence against this Act, and 
 shall, it it be the first offence, be liable to a penalty not exceeding 
 fifty pounds, and if it be the second or any subsequent offence, be 
 liable, at the discretion of the court by which he is tried, to a penalty 
 not exceeding one hundred pounds or to imprisonment for a period 
 not exceeding three months. 
 
 And any person publishing any notice of any such intended 
 exhibition by advertisement in a newspaper, placard, or otherwise, 
 shall be liable to a penalty not exceeding one pound. 
 
 A person punished for an offence under this section shall not for 
 the same offence be punishable under any other section of this 
 Act.

 7. The Secretary of State may insert, as a condition of granting Registry of 
 any license, a provision in such license that the place in which any performance of 
 experiment is to be performed by the licensee is to be registered in experiments, 
 such manner as the Secretary of State may from time to time by any 
 general or special order direct ; provided that every place for the 
 pertormance of experiments for the purpose of instruction under this 
 Act shall be approved by the Secretary of State, and shall be 
 registered in such manner as he may from time to time by any 
 general or special order direct. 
 
 8. The Secretary of State may license any person whom he may 
 think qualified to hold a license to perform experiments under this 
 Act. A license granted by him may be for such time as he may 
 think fit, and may be revoked by him on his being satisfied that such 
 license ought to be revoked. There may be annexed to such license 
 any conditions which the Secretary of State may think expedient 
 for the purpose of better carrying into effect the objects of this Act, 
 but not inconsistent with the provisions thereof. 
 
 9. The Secretary of State may direct any person performing 
 experiments under this Act from time to time to make such reports 
 to him of the result of such experiments, in such form and with such 
 details as he may require. 
 
 10. The Secretary of State shall cause all registered places to be 
 from time to time visited by inspectors for the purpose of securing 
 a compliance with the provisions of this Act, and the Secretary of 
 State may, with the assent of the Treasury as to number, appoint 
 any special inspectors, or may from time to time assign the duties of 
 any such inspectors to such officers in the employment of the 
 Government, who may be willing to accept the same, as he may 
 think fit, either permanently or temporarily.

 reasonable ground to believe that experiments in contravention of 
 this Act are being performed by an unlicensed person in any place 
 not registered under this Act may issue his warrant authorizing any 
 officer or constable of police to enter and search such place, and to 
 take the names and addresses of the persons found therein. 
 
 Any person who refuses admission on demand to a police officer or

 16. In England, where a person is accused before a court of 
 summary jurisdiction of any offence against this Act in respect of 
 which a penalty of more than five pounds can be imposed, the 
 accused may, on appearing before the court of summary jurisdiction, 
 declare that he objects to being tried for such offence by a court of 
 summary jurisdiction, and thereupon the court of summary juris- 
 diction may deal with the case in all respects as if the accused were 
 charged with an indictable offence and not an offence punishable on 
 summary conviction, and the offence may be prosecuted on 
 indictment accordingly. 
 
 16. In England, if any party thinks himself aggrieved by any Form of^ 
 conviction made by a court of summary jurisdiction on determining quarter 
 any information under this Act, the party so aggrieved may appeal sessions, 
 therefrom, subject to the conditions and regulations following: 
 
 (i) The appeal shall be made to the next court of general or 
 quarter sessions for the county or place in which the 
 cause of appeal has arisen, holden not less than twenty-one 
 days after the decision of the court from which the appeal 
 is made ; and 
 
 (2) The appellant shall, within ten days after the cause of appeal 
 
 has arisen, give notice to the other party and to the court 
 of summary jurisdiction of his intention to appeal, and of 
 the ground thereof; and 
 
 (3) The appellant shall, within three days after such notice, enter 
 
 into a recognizance before a justice of the peace, with 
 two sufficient sureties, conditioned personally to try such 
 appeal, and to abide the judgment of the court thereon, and 
 to pay such costs as may be awarded by the court, or give 
 such other security by deposit of money or otherwise as 
 the justice may allow ; and 
 
 (4) Where the appellant is in custody the justice may, if he 
 
 think fit, on the appellant entering into such recognizance 
 or giving such other security as aforesaid, release him from 
 custody ; and 
 
 (5) The court of appeal may adjourn the appeal, and upon the 
 
 hearing thereof they may confirm, reverse, or moaify the 
 decision of the court of summary jurisdiction, or remit 
 the matter to the court of summary jurisdiction with the 
 opinion of the court of appeal thereon, or make such other

 WHERE VIVISECTION IS PRACTISED AND TO 
 
 WHAT EXTENT. 
 
 The following is a list of the towns, as given in the official 
 Return, where laboratories were registered in the year 1902, 
 with the number of vivisectors actually at work. The 
 Inspector, who is employed by the Home Office, and is paid 
 out of the taxes, does not know whether the statistics of 
 experiments, and the particulars of their nature, are accurate 
 statements of the facts, as they are the statistics and statements of 
 the vivisectors, handed to the Inspector for publication. He 
 (the Inspector) merely reports that " during the year the usual 
 inspections of registered places have been made " by himself, 
 his colleague, and his predecessor.

 The Present. 
 
 The Work of the LONDON ANTL VIVISECTION 
 
 SOCIETY has been thus far successful: it has kept the 
 public conscience alive to the horrible possibilities of un- 
 checked vivisection* And the vivisectors are so afraid of 
 public opinion that they never weary of protesting that 
 they are extremely humane persons* Surely the Society 
 has> in accomplishing this, justified its existence ? 
 
 The Future. 
 
 The Support accorded to the Society by Subscriptions 
 and donations is insufficient for its activities and possi- 
 bilities. Were it not for occasional legacies the Society 
 could not be the effective fighting and educational agency 
 it is* The future no one "can foretell* But — while vivi- 
 section exists, this Society is an absolute necessity* If you 
 can, therefore, provide for the Society^s future in your 
 Will, may we beg of you to do so ? If you agree, pray 
 do it now* Thousands of pounds have been lost to the 
 Society and the Cause by the fatal procrastination of well- 
 meaning friends. The pity of it !

 The London Anti- Vivisection Society was started 
 in 1876 to secure the prohibition by law of experiments 
 on living animals. 
 
 The Restrictive Act of 1876 has proved utterly 
 ineffective to secure the protection of animals from 
 scientific cruelty.

 SOCIETY'S PRESENT POLICY. 
 
 " / believe that the urgent protest against Vivisection which marks our 
 immediate day, and the whole plea for lesse7mig the miseries of animals 
 as endured at the hands of man, constitute the next great moral question 
 which is to be put to the intelligent conscience, and that only the educated 
 conscience can properly reply to it,'' — From an article by Elizabeth 
 Stuart Phelps in McClure's Magazine, November, 1896. 
 
 The London Anti-Vivisection Society's policy from its 
 institution in 1876, has been one of total prohibition. That 
 is to say, the only demand of the Society is that the practice 
 of vivisection be prohibited by law, it being impossible under 
 any Act of Parliament which the wit of man can devise to 
 safeguard the animals from cruelty. Any attempt to amend 
 the Vivisection Act of 1876, under which Parliament attempted 
 to restrict and regulate the practice, must inevitably fail 
 as that has failed. The provision of extra inspectors could 
 only result in endowing the practice by creating a vested 
 interest in it, with the added drawback that the inspectors 
 are invariably drawn from the ranks of the vivisectors, or 
 of sympathisers with vivisection. The prohibition of vivi- 
 section can only be obtained by constantly pressing for it, and 
 any compromise in the direction of further restriction or 
 relinquishing the demand for total prohibition, or putting it 
 in the background, which can always be pleaded on very 
 specious grounds, amounts to a recognition of the moral 
 lawfulness of the practice, a recognition which the London 
 Anti-Vivisection Society never has conceded and never will 
 concede. 
 
 This policy has been approved by and has had the support of 
 the late Earl Shaftesbury, Lord Chief Justice Coleridge, 
 Prof. Freeman, Lord Brampton, Sir Arthur Arnold, Hon. P. 
 Carteret Hill (Premier of Nova Scotia), General Phelps, 
 Prebendary Webb-Peploe, and Dr. Hadwen. 
 
 ULTIMATE POLICY.— The enforcement of an Act of 
 Parliament prohibiting Vivisection. 
 
 Prof. FREEMAN (the eminent Historian), 
 
 WROTE : 
 
 •' The practical conclusion that I come to is that if the 
 distinction can be drawn in practice between what I hold 
 to be lawful and unlawful vivisection, I would allow one 
 and forbid the other. But I see the very great difficulty 
 in drawing the line between the two ; and if it cannot be 
 drawn in practice, especially as it seems so very doubtful 
 whether vivisection has lessened human suffering or not, I 
 can only go in for a complete forbidding of the practice."
