New YO-k, Aug. 22.-AftCr being
stretched on a bed for over two months
with weights attached to his head and

the Kings county hospital from Coney
Island with a broken neck on June ),
has gained nearly an inch in height
and has recovered Sufficiently to give
the surgeons hope tnat he may live
for years, even If he does not fully re-
cover.
Mullen broke his neck by falling
from the board walk at Brighton
beach, and when taken to the hospital
he was wholly paraly2cd from his neck
downward, unable to speak, and the
surgeons said he would hardly live n
week.
The extension treatment was Used to
relieve the pressure Of the fractured
vcrtebrae on the spinal cord, simply
to give Mullen temporary relief. Ans
he had been in the hospital a day or SO
Il consultation was held to determine
the practlCability OF operating on the
man to save his life. II was found that
fractured VCrtcbrae pressed on the
spinal cord an incision would have to
be q lie in his nec'( from the front,
and that It would prove fatal.
1t was then decided to DO all pOsGi-
Bile o., prolonS Mullcu's life and great
are was taken to MAKE the extension
treatment effective. Three days age
Mullen had recovered sufficiently to al
low of his being taken out of the
stretching harness, to which the six
teen or twenty pounds of iron weights
were attached, and he was placed on
an air bed.

some mystery connected with the fact
hat the bodies Of Mr.. and Mrs. Fair

originally arranged hat the bodies
should be withdrawn from the church
of the Madeleln at 5 o'clock yesterday
afternoon. At hat hour two under
takers vans were waiting at the door,
when orders came sending them away
till $3.50 o'clock last night. At that
hour the vans were again on time, but
the removal Of the bodies was again
countermanded, and 1t is believed their
removal has been postponed until an
indefinite date.
Lawyers representing the families OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Fair have been closeted
all the evening with Consul General
John w. GOwdy, who, cabled Washing
ton earlier in the day for instructions
in the matter. 1t Is reported that tho
lawyers representing one party desire
that a post mortem be held before the
bodies leave France.
Mr.. Gowdy has received no reply to
his Cablegram addressed to Washing
ton.
Mr.. Ellis, manager Of the Hotel Ritz,
where the Fairs had apartments at the
time Of their death, has charge OF the

toned yesterday he was very reticent.
lie said the shipment of the bodies had
beer postponed because definite instruc-
lions for forwarding them had not
been received from the family Of Mr.

Wild Sensation in Delaware.

Laurel. Del, Aug. .S.-Thc discovery %
several Spanish gold coins has thrown the
little village Of Renslow, on the Chesa-
pcakc bay near here, into a state OF eX-
element never before experienced in that
quiet place.
The money was !olnd by Thomas Cas-
tie Nld William Taber, who were digging
a well. 1t is a ~wcll-known fact that the
treasure of the famous Captain Kidd IS
buried along the shores of the Chesa-
peakc and many attempts have teen made
to discover it, but without success.
The news OF the finding rapidly spread
and I'm a short time all was excitement.
People began digging in their back yards
and even in the strets. In a short time
the town looked as though n subway was
being run through. But will one eXcep-
ton no money was found Pau Winslow,
a lad, discovered Il few pieces near the
spot where the well was being dug.
A rope has been stretched around the
spot and a systematic search will begin.
The people feel confident the buried
treasure IS in their midst and strangers
are looked upon with suspicion since the
discovery.
