HIS PITIFUL PLIGHT
Surgeons Discover Cause of
Poor Frank Golfers
Sufferings.
THE RESULT OF TIE AUTOPSY
Two Abnormal Growths Pressed
Against the Attorneys
Brain.

The cause of the wanderings of
Frank Howard Collier. the Chicago
attorney, has been disclosed by the
autopsy of the brain of the unfortu-
nate man made in Chicago yesterday.
Two abnormal growths of bone on
the inner side of the skull pressed
against the brain. The pressure and
the adhesion OF the brain caused
the insanity. Whether these bony
growths, which were directly over
each eye, were the result of the blow
received by the unfortunate attorney
in the assault committed on him in
the political campaign of 1889 will
never be known. The blow left its
mark almost two inches from where
the bony growths were found. More
ever, the largest growth was on the
right side-opposite from where the
attorney was struck. The most plaus-
ible explanation-the one which Col
lier's friends and relatives, supported
by medical science. are inclined to
accept, was that the blow on the skull
distributed itself so widely as to
set up an Inflammation over both
frontal lobes of the brain. The
Inflammation resulted in the bony
growths, or eXostoses, over each
brain lobe, and emotional insanity
followed. Both of the bony out
growths are over that portion of the
brain supposed to be the center of the
emotions. 1t took only a few mo-
ments to locate the abnormal growths
of bone. They were found an inch
from where the bony button had been
removed from the skull at the opera
ton in New York two years ago.
Each extended upward over each
fcontal lobe of the brain for over two
inches and with a width half as great.
They were irregular in shape, and
protruded into the brain to a depth of
from an eighth to third of an inch.
The thick membrane covering the
brain, the dura mater, adhered firmly
to the bony protrusions. so that the
brain was torn in separating the bone
from it.
If there had been any Inflammation
it had entirely disappeared. But the
pressure from the bone and the adj
hesion of the mem brane were above
all doubt the cause of the circular in
sanity from which MIR. Collier suf-
fered. There was every evidence that
they were constantly growing, and
that this insanity would have con-
stantly increased. Both had pro-
crossed so far that an operation
would have been impossible.
Growth Caused by Blow.
An authorized statement of the re-
suit of the autopsy was made by De
Forrest w. Heath, brother-in-law of
Mr.. Collier. Mr.. Heath was of the
opinion that the bony malformations
had been directly caused by the as
sault on Mr.. Collier in 1889. Else
where the brain had perfectly nor
NAL appearance, but the skull was
unusually thick and heavy every
where. The entire brain has been re
moved, as well as the bone of the
forehead containing the two growths,
and a microscopicaI examination may
possibly discover still greater pecu-
liaritiss. The brain is now at Rush
Medical college.
On his death bed Collier was ra-
tional and talked freely of his mall
ady. He expressed a desire that an
autopsy be held on his brain.
The funeral was held at Chicago
today.

MAKES VILE ATTACK
Oavenport's Love for Blooming
ton Ball Club Tactics
Carried Too Far.
AN UNWARRANTED ISLANDER
Team From This City Subjected
to False and Malicious
Accusations.

1t is astonishing what wondrous
kindness a kindred feeling will Gre
ate. Ever since the Bloomington
team gave its exhibition of rowdy ball
playing in Rock Island last week the
Davenport press has been singing it's
praises of the disgraced aggregation,
and when che club went over to Dav-
export to meet its engagement
there it was received with open arms,
and the players told in terms oft and
repeated what fine fellows they were.
This was all the affair of no one out
side so long as Davenport enjoyed be-
slowing its caresses upon such a class
of players, but when the strange feel
ing thus manifested found its cul-
mination in this outburst in one of
the Davenport papers of last even
ing, it justifies word, or two at
least: The Bloomington team is an
aggregation of ball players and much
more are all gentlemen upon the dia-
mond, Notwithstanding the reports to
the contrary sent from Rock Islanu,
whose team not only plays the dirtiest
ball in the league, but attempts to
hide itself under cover by besmirch-
ing the other clubs with their unprin-
cipaled mud throwing. The popular
ity of the Bloomington club was at
tested here after yesterdays game by
q number of Davenport fans passing
cigars around to the boys from Illi-

nois."
OutcroppIDg OF HoodIum Spirit.
There can be no excuse for such an
unwarranted attack upon the Rock
Island team. and the only explanation
that can possibly be offered is that it
emanated in Davenport's own rowdy
players, whose viciousness and
temper have been shown in every
town in the league. While the evil
dence can not be produced to show a
single instance of where the Rock Is
land team has been guilty of unbe-
coming conduct on the diamond, the
records of the umpires in the offices of
the league show that the Dav-
export team has been fined
more for rufiianism than any other
team in the league, and the fact that
Bloomington comes close second az
4 Jrds the natural conclusion that
Bloomington is beloved in Davenport
because it has exhibited hoodlum
playing, and moreover, because the
exhibition was made in Rock Island.
The ARGUS regrets much To see
such an unkind and unneighborly
spirit on the part of Davenport to-
ward the team from this city, as the
attack herein mentioned is not only
.candulously unjust, but vile in the
extreme, but it is calculated to en-
gender a feeling between the two
cities that there is absolutely no &C.
cssion for. Davenport may enjoy its
fancies. but there is no possible rea-
son why it should seek to sustain it's
admiration for the way Bloomington
plays ball by indulgence in malicious
falsehood against Rock Island.
