NECK BROKEN, RIBS FRACTURED.

stapIeton's Condition When Permitted to 60
Home from the New York Hospital
Deputy Coroner Weston made an autopsy at
the Morgue yesterday upon the body OF VIII
liam Stapleton. the paper hanger. who was
struck by a cable car on FRIDAY last, and was
found dead in his room at 1923 East Twenty
first street, after having been sent homo from
the New York Hospital The result showed
that Stapleton had died frem a broken neck.
1t was also found that five ribs were fractured.
DR.. Weston seid 1t was most astonishing
that man In Stapleton's condition could have
lived twenty-four hours. 1t also seemed very
strange to the Deputy Coroner and DR.. Minor,
the house SURGEON OF Bellevue Hospital. who
was present at the autopsy. that the examina-
ton made By the physicians at the New York
Hospital had not given them q better idea OF
the extent Of Stapleton's injuries. Four Of the
fractured ribs wore on the right side, and had
induced pleurO-pneumonia
An investigation will be made BY Coroner
McKenna to determine whether the doctors at
the New York Hospital who attended Staple-
ton. were not guilty OF negligence: Ambulance
Surgeon Chamberlain. who took Stapleton to
the hospital. said that tho injured man walked
from the ambulance into the hospital; and It
was only after much persuasion that he CON-
sented to let the doctors examine him at all.
