Surgeons.

New York, July 16.-Drs. Higgins
and Cantell of the Fordham hospital,
performed an unusual operation yes
terday ON Michael Paradise. He was
struck by large rock and his back
was broken while at work on the Je-
rome park reservoir on July s.
Yesterday the doctors made an in
cision five inches long, exposing the
spinal column and cord. The cord was
found to have been slightly injured,
but three vertebrae were splintered.
Parts of the splintered vertebrae were
removed piece by piece.
Then Paradise was encased in n
plaster of paris cast extending from
his arms to his hips, An opening was
left In the plaster that the growth of
the bone may be noted The patient
was hoisted to the ceiling by ropes
and pulleys and then let down into n
bed.
Shortly after the operation he sank
somewhat, but last night he was i'm
proving again, and the doctors hone
that he may entirely recover, though
they are not over-sanguine, Paradise
was still pafalyzed from the waist
down yesterday.

Because City Government !,
Unconstitutional.

Cleveland, O., July 16.-'"The gov
ernment of Cleveland has been de-
clared unconstitutional by the highest
court of your State. The classification
of Ohio cities has been declared IL
legal. Under these circumstances we
must decline to make payment for the
bonds which we recently purchased
from the city of Cleveland, issued for
the purpose of building West Side
market house."
This, in effect, was the communica-
ton received by Auditor Madigan from
Blodgett, Merritt & Co., of New York,
the successful bidders for 100000
worth of West Side market house
bonds. The communication was ac-
companied by request that the de-
posit which had been made by the
firm, amounting to $1,000, be return
ed
This action, while it caused consid-
cradle perturbation at the City Hall,
was not entirely unexpected. Ever
since the Supreme courts decision on
the custer suit against the federal
plan 1t has been feared that bond buy
els would refuse to make payment
for the bonds which they had bar
gained for. 1t was not considered at
all strange that the spectators should
consider the securities of city which
boasts no legal government very
poor investment. In fact, 1t is be-
lieved that the action Of Blodgett
Merritt Il Co., in reference to the
market house bonds Is but an indica-
tion of the action which will be taken
in the future in regard to all Cleve-
land bonds.
Auditor Madigan, however, decided
not to accede to the demands of the
bond buyers without contest. He
turned the matter over to Law Direc-
tor Beacon and at the advice of the
latter he refused to return the deposit
which had been made by the New
York firm. The firm said that they
were acting under tile advice of their
attorneys, and gave notice that they
would take legal steps to secure the
restitution of the $1,000 deposit The
claim will probably be made that as
the bonds were issued by an unconsti-
tutional city government they cannot
be compelled to make payment for
them and the city cannot rightfully
retain the deposit.
In view of the action Of the bond
firm 1t will be impossible to issue OF
sell any bonds for any purpose until
after the new code of government Is
in operation. Many important public
improvements will be materially dc,
layed, and the present city govern.
ment will be greatly embarrassed in
many of its plans for important publiC
works Will be set at naught.

of Akron capital, which manufactures

tory exclusive Of England as field,
Is rapidly extending its operations.
Headquarters are at Paris, France,
and all shipments are made from there.
Agencies have recently been estab-

many, and Nice, France, and it is ex-
pected that another will shortly be es-
tublishea at Brussels, Belgium, and
Others at other places will follow.
For some time the company con-
sidered a proposition from a French
company which wished to manufacture
the tires on, royalty, but the matter
was dropped. Three aud one-half inch
tires seem to be those which are most
popular and the majority Of orders
have been for goods Of this size. One
order for 100 sets of automobile tires
given by one firm is among the latest
received.

tited by the addition to be built to the
plant of the Goodyear Tire & Rubber

addition will be 200 feet long, 60 feet
wide and three stories high, with a

the plant about Aug. |, When com
pleted, the building win make room
