Of the more unusual reactions observed in the lungs an infarct was found occupying a considerable part of the lower left lobe in one case. There was a marked softening of the lung tissue with reddish, mucky-looking lung substance arranged about small irregular cavities. This reaction extended into the lung for a distance of 4.5 cm. Bordering close on these softened areas there was a dry mottled yellowish gray and deep red lung tissue. Surrounding this area again were noted a number of small blood vessels in which there were found yellowish granular plugs. One plug in a vessel was found at a distance of 3 cm. from the base of the lobe, and another was found at a distance of 8 cm. from the apex of the lobe. On further examination it was observed that the base of this softened area was situated on the pleural surface and that the apex was directed inward about a distance of 6 cm. from the pleura. Bathing the cut surface there was a glairy and very sticky material of a reddish yellow color. Near the apex of this softened area in the lung there was found a vessel about the size of a goose-quill in which there was a grayish yellow granular plug. This plug was adherent to the vessel. Within the small bronchioles there were plugs of a soft yellowish brown material. The striking feature in addition to the softening of the lung in a number of places was the glairy material of a sticky nature which bathed the cut surface. A white infarct was present in the spleen. The lung described above as well as another showed gangrenous change. In the second of these two abscesses had formed, and there was a communication between the lung and pleural cavity in which there was a large amount of sanguino-purulent fluid and a pyopneumothorax. In a description of these reactions it must be added that the early and late changes were not always observed independently, but in most cases occurred together, giving the lung a peculiar mottled red and yellow glassy appearance. More frequently the congested œdematous reaction was observed singly, while the purulent alteration usually was in combination with the former type. The acute serous pneumonia was noted 13 times, 6 times in combination with the purulent reaction and 7 times alone, while the acute purulent pneumonia was found in 9 cases, 3 times alone and 6 times with an acute serous process. In all but 3 of 18 cases there was evidence of a bronchial distribution. Two of these three cases showed a massive œdematous lung with in one case an extensive hemorrhage, while the third presented an advanced purulent reaction with marked necrosis and softening. An acute bronchitis which varied in character from a hemorrhagic to a purulent one was present in all the cases. The reaction observed within the bronchi in the individual cases corresponded closely to the picture found in the lungs.
