Fate's Strange Uecrees in the Great

Every hist stOrian is Influenced to a
greater or less extent by his personal
surroundings and the things of his
own times. For example:
Vivian was reciting in exceedingly
new words the old. Old story of Pet
er's release by an angel from prison.
All had gone well and glibly up to the
point where Peter had found his way
to the house of a friend.
Very well-what did he do them"
inquired the listener.
'He-he rapped at the dooor."

was performed by DR.. Matthew d.
Mann. His first assistant was DR.. Her.
man Minter. his second assistant was
DR.. John Parmenter. his third assist
ant was DR.. Lee of st. Louis. who
happened to be on the exposition
grounds at the time Of the tragedy and
placed his services at the disposal
of the president. DR.. Nelson w. Will
son noted the time of the operation
and took the notes. Dr. Eugene Was
din of the marine hospital gave the
anesthetic. DR.. RiXey arrived at the
later part of the operation and held
the light. DR.. Parke arrived at the
close of the operation. DR.. Mann
welded the knife.
The operation lasted almost an
hour. 4 cut about five inches long
was made. 1t was found necessary to
turn up the stomach of the president
in order to trace the course of the bull
let. The bullets opening in the front
wall of the stomach was small and it
was carefully closed with sutures,
after which a search was made for the
hole in the back wall of the stomach
This hole where the bullet went out
of the stomach. was larger than the
hole in the front wall, in fact it was
wound more than an inch in diameter
jagged and ragged 1t was sewed up
in three layers.
I'm turning up the stomach. an act
that was absolutely necessary and
which was performed by DR.. Mann
with rare skill. the danger was that
some of the contents of the stomach
n i,0 WI
and as a result cause peritOnitis. 1t so
happened that there was very little in
the presidents stomach at the time
of the operation. Moreover. subse-
quent developments tend to show that
:his feature Of the operation was
9randly successful and that none Of
the contents of the stOmac.. entered
me abdominal cavity If any of the
contents had entered the cavity the
probability is that by now pcri.oni,is
would have set in.
In this connection it is of interest
that some experienced surgeons do not
mind the temperature at all in noting
the bulletins of the presidents condi
ton. but say that so long as the pulse
IS in the proper relation to the tenn
perature in a big operation like this
it is very common for the tempera-
turc to remain around 1902. or even
103. But if the temperature had
dropped and the pulse had accelerated
i would have been danger signal Of
pcri'onits setting in. 1t is of inter-
est also to know that after an opera
'ion of this kind the peristaltic cavity
ceases or becomes retrograde After
the operation, as soon as the patient
pnsses anything, even gas, through the
"""tum, it is a sign that peristaltic ac-
tion has recommended normally and
that the danger of peritOnitls is prac-
'i"allv over After an operation such
as was performed on the president
p" SURGEONS wish to know at once
even when gas is passed. for they
take 1t then that the patient is com
paratiyely safe from peritOnitis. The
point of tremendous Importance in
connection with these facts is that
The president yesterday passed gas,
and later there was a further move
m"ent. Connecting this fact with the
bulletins issued by the surgeons, the
basis for hope seems stronger"
