A BIG SURPRISE
in DIR. PIRLOT CASE.
Dean of Paris Academy of rledicine
DepOSed That Doctor Had Never
Been q Student There.

The hearing OF the appeal OF julius
a. Pirlot from the decision OF the State
Board OF Health refusing him cer-
diiicate 10 practice medicine in this
state came 10 rather a sensational
close in the appellate court today. The
controversy between the doctor and
the state board OF health, which has
lasted over a couple Of years, has at
tracted more or less attention. DIR. Pr
iot was registered In Massachusetts,
and he presented his certificate OF reg
istration to the local state board and
also three diplomas, or rather what he
claims were duplicates OF diplomas, pre-
tending to show that he had given nine
years 10 the study OF medicine at the
Academy OF Medicines in Paris and
had graduated from that school. which
is admitted to be one of the oldest and
best medical schools in the world.
In investigating the duplicates DIR.
Gardner r.. Swarts, secretary OF the
state board OF health found a deposit
tion in Massachusetts that claimed TO
be made by the president OF the acad
emy where doctor said he graduated,
which was 10 the effect that no such
name as that OF julius A. Prlot APP
peared among the graduates OF the
academy i'm the year 1875 nor as a stu
dent at any time. This evidence was "A
complete surprise to Attorney H.. $.
Hopkins, who represented Dr. Pirlot
and the doctor himself declared there
was some terrible mistake. SO at the
request of Mr.. Hopkins the hearing was
postponed for a few months.
The reason DR. Pirlot SAYS the dupl-
cate diplomas were presented to the
state board was because the originals
were destroyed by a fire i'm Woonsocket
az which place he lived some years ago,
in which fire all his goods were de-
stroyed. DIR. Swarts said If the origin
ais had been presented there would
have probably been no investigation
and the certificate issued as a matter of
course. The seals ON the duplicates are
admitted 10 be genuine and SO are the
signatures OF the officers.
Dr. Pirlot was the first witness and
he told Mr. Hopkins he was graduate
of the Academy of Paris, and produced
his duplicate diplomas and his certiii-
cate of registration i'm Massachusetts
and said these were all presented TO the
state board through DR.. Swarts In Feb
ruary 1896. and that when he went to
inquire every month for eight months
the doctor told him everything would
be all right and he would get his GER
tificate. AT last DR.. Swarts refused 10
give him the certificate and witness
could not find out either from him or
any other member OF the state board
OF health the reason the certificate was
not given.
The attorney general objected TO the
admission OF the certificate of registra-
tion in Massachusetts and also 10 the
witness explaining the rights the dip
Tomas gave him in France, but the
court overruled the objections. DIR.
Pirlot was proceeding to give details
of consultation he had i'm a case with
Dr. Swarts i'm 1885, but the Attorney

| general objected ana the objection was
sustained.
Attorney General Tanner asked wit
ness II he was plaintiff in a case In
which Gilbert Watkins was defendant.
The answer was In tho Affirmative. The
next question was: Is not the Faculty
OF Medicine the same school as the one
YOU say your diplomas are from? Again
the answer was i'm the affirmative. At
torney-Gcn. Tanner then asked witness
IL he knew of a deposition being taken
in Paris in the case thar had been re-
called. Dr. Pirlot said he never saw
the deposition nor did he know il was
to be taken. Witness said he tried 20
seen the deposition i'm Massachusetts,
but could not. Asked if he had a law
yer i'm the case his answer was yes,
but the lawyer did not tend TO the
matter.
Attorney General Tanner said that
everything done by the state board in
this case was properly done. Knowing
the case with which bogus diplomas
were obtained I'm these days it inves-
tigated the duplicates. lie would SUBJ
NIT the deposition Of the dean OF tho
college i'm France that DIR. Pirlot claim
ed TO have graduated from showing
the records failed to show he was ever

Or. Swarts testified that only dupli-
cafes OF tle ulplnIldS were IItStnAtu 10
the board by DIR. Pirlot and witness
made an investigation as the result OF
which the board refused the doctor u
certificate. DIR. Pirlot had opened a
drug store and prescribed for people
free insisting that the medicine should
be bought i'm store that the applicant
for a certificate or his Wife owned.
DR. Swarts read a letter from the board
of registration of doctors in Massachu-
- .xrfta off tytsn ant igtfs Ilr
Pirlot certificate the board had found
his diploma not 10 be genuine, this
conclusion being arrived at from the
fact that the officers of the Faculty OF
Medicine i'm Paris had failed To find the
doctors name on its records as a stu
dent. There was no Massachusetts
law by which the certificate could be
revoked.
This answer led the attorney general
TO say: you generally find fault with
your lawyers. don't YOU" No other
witness was called by Mr.. Hopkins.
The deposition was read To the court
Ii was made by Emile Broudille and
was apparently regular i'm every way.
The correspondence OF Or. Swarts with
the Massachusetts board was also read.
During the reading OF these documents
the appellant and Mr.. Hopkins held an
earnest consultation and Mr. Hopkins
said To the court that were IL not for
the fact that DIR. Pirlot was "A stranger

was 100000, the money being paid over

The gold fiction is the most time hon

much gold was taken from this island
