AMPUTATED HIS LEFT ARM
DIR. ARTHUR w. MILLER'S RUNA-
WAY ACCIDENT HAD DISAS-
TROUS RESULT
Blood Poisoning Developed in the
Injured Hand, and Yesterday 1t
Was Found Necessary to Cut Of
the Arm at the Elbow.

DR.. Arthur w. Miller, who Is confined
at st. Joseph's hospital with blood pois-
oning, underwent an operation yesterday
afternoon. the amputation of his left
arm. Sc severe had the ravages of the
disease become, that extreme measures
We're necessary IN ordr to say his life.
The patient was taken to st. JoSephs
hospital last week. suffering from injuries
to his left hand received in a runaway
accident. After his admission to the
wards there, blood poisoning set in, in
duced it is thought from contact with
animal poisons in the health department
laboratory. The hand quickly infiamed
and the patient developed a high fever.
The poison spread from the hand to the
wrist and then to the arm and Sunday
afternoon his condition had become so
serious that the entire forearm was
opened to relieve the accumulated pus
and blood.
This measure did not stop the spread
of the disease however and yesterday DR..
E. II. Whitcomb, his attending physician,
decided that unless extreme measures
We're speedily taken, there would be but
small hope of saving the patients life.
DR.. A. Schwyzer was called later and

The mystery surrounding the suicide
Of man supposed at first to be a resi-
dent of Chicago, whose body was found
early in the morning of March in a
doorway at 60 East Third street, has at
last been cleared up, through an appar-
emily insignificant source, the serial and
stock numbers of the shoes worn by the
suicide.
AS previously stated In The G o b e,
the case presented many unusual fea-
lures. Before committing his rash act
the man had taken every precautiOn to
avoid identification, even to removing
the laundry marks on his clothes. He
had registered at the Merchants hotel.
where he stayed while in the city under
the name of 'T. Thomas, Chicago" Not
withstanding the publicity which the sui
eide attained, no trace of his friends or
relatives could be found. The body was
taken to the county morgue and there
lay embalmed for two weeks, unclaimed.
Detective Campbell, of the city force,
went to work on the case at once, and,
attracted by the unusual features, made
every effort to trace the clues presented.

MRS. KITTSON Will. RESIGN
JUDGE BAZILLE SAYS SHE SHOULD
HAVE PROTESTED AGAINST
RECENT COMPROMISE
Other Instances Are Cited in Which
She Did Not Fulfill to the Letter
the Obligations of Her Guardian
ship.

Mrs. Violet K. Kittson will today file
her resignation as guardian of Alfred S.
Kfttson, in order to avoid a citation to
show cause why she should not be re-
moved by the probate court The reason
for the enforced resignation is failure to
protest against the so per cent comDro-
mise effected with the creditors of her
wards estate in district court, and under
which $4,000 has already been distributed
by the st. Paul Trust company This
means that the matter of the compro-
mise with the creditors is to be reopened
in the probate court
Yesterday John H. Ives, as attorney for
Mrs. Kittson, appeared before Judge Ba-
lille to ask that an enlarged bond for
his client be fixed by the court
Il shall at once Issue citation for Mrs.
kittson to show cause why she should
not be removed from the guardianship, -
said the court.
I'm that case must ask that you give
my client time to resign, as 1 shall ad-
wise her to do" responded Mr.. Ives
And the matter was allowed to rest
with the understanding that the resigna-
ton will be filed today.
My reason for taking the action is
that Mrs. kittSon has allowed claims
that were not legal to be paid, when she
should have objected. Merely as an in
stance, Mrs. Kittson allowed her ward,
with her knowledge and consent, to go
out and raise money on note when he
had no legal right to incur Indebtedness.
The note was held by Fred Schroeder.
and the face value was about S. 1OO Aft
erwards she did not, as was plainly her
| duty, protest when the holder of the
| note obtained a judgment nor when he
| collected the full amount of the note from
| the district court, when he was not en-
| titled This court cannot and will not
| shut its eyes to such practices. I shall
appoint another guardian
