Interesting Talk with the President
Of the Steel Corporation.
NEW YORK. March Is-Charles NJ.
Schwab. who returned to New York on the
steamer Kronprinz Wilhelm. said, in the
course OF an interview. that he never had
felt so well in his life or been so glad to
get back to work. He declared he had no
intention OF resigning the presidency OF the
steel combination, adding: But Of course,
I don't own the United States Steel Com
pany, and its stockholders choose its ON

When asked regarding his big automo-
bile, Mr.. Schwab replied: ''The one In

Indeed it was the most delightful real
terranean. but a great many absurd things
were said about that cruise. We did not

Referring to his observations in Europe,
Mr.. Schwab said: II made this trip TO

German was reported to be personally hos
tile to the treaty because Of his sympathy
with the railways. There have been col
umns Of such gossip; and after all the
treaty was ratified by a practically unani-
nous vote. The worst feature OF this
kind of prediction is that 1t presents TO
the country the idea that a large part Of
the senators are men who profess to IA
vor one thing while they are conspiring
to defeat IL. The effect Of such pre-

For the first time in this country the
Lorenz machine has been used in an oper-
alton for hip disease. The operation was
performed by DR.. Frederick Mueller. A
girl almost twelve years DID, who had suf
fered from a disease of the hip which drew
her right foot up to and touching her left
calf, was made normal in form in forty
minutes. Her leg, four inches shorter than
the other, was drawn into its proper posi-
ton and of equal length with its mate, and
the girl, after coming out of the ether lay
still and white, but without pain and COM
pletely ''mended." as DIR. Mueller said. The
operation was long and painful to all ex-
cept the patient herself, but the shining
crib of silver did the work for which DIR.
Lorenz had built it, and the girl will walk.
