The latest Miles episode is likely to
have a sensational sequence when Presi-
dent Roosevelt returns There Is a grow
ing belief in army circles, derived. no
doubt. from the indignation of Secretary
Root, that the president will exercise his
authority under the law and peremptorlly
retire the lieutenant general. Secretary
Root only the other day gave an exhibit
ton Of his anger and resentment toward
General Miles by negle citing to invite him
to a dinner to the general staff at which
Root played the role Of host. He could
not have devised an uglier snub. 1t
amounted to the same thing as adyer-
Using to the army that the secretary of
war did not deem the lieutenant general
a proper person to be his guest.
General Miles accepted the secretary's
neglect with perfect tranquility. One OF
his friends explained that the general
would have declined an invitation to be
present at the dinner, had one been sent
him.
Root has communicated his views about
General Miles to the president both by
telegrap phi and letter and is prepared t.
elaborate on these communications Wher
the president returns to Washington. He
will urge the president to retire Miles
peremptorily without regard to the fac
that the general will retire by operation

Of discipline for the effect 1t may hav'

A SURGICAL TRIUMPH
Woman With Fractured Spine Is
Fixed Up.

Philadelphia, May 18.-The success OF
a marvellous surgical operation comes with
the news from the Pennsylvania hospital
that Clara Nichols can walk.
DR.. Francis H. Stewart, young sur
eeon saved her life by sewing together
the severed ends of her spinal cord. On
the night Of Jan. 49, 1901, the young wo-
man. who lived at 1903 South Forty-ninth
street, was shot by Romeo Helms while
leaving Thompson's Spa on Chestnut
street. Helms, who was in love with the
girl and half mad from Jealousy, at once
put himself beyond the reach of the law
by shooting and killing himself.
One young surgeon, Dr. Francis IA
Stewart asked why not sew the ends OF
the cord together as we would flesh or
skin? There was no one to second his
proposition.
1T is the only chance and I'll take it. y
| he concluded.
The operation was a most delicate one.
The leaden bullet had shattered the ninth
dorsal vertebra, the greater part Of which
was removed in splinters. The mangled
part OF the cord was then cut away, leav-
/ ing the two ends nearly a half inch apart.
After they had been drawn together and
4 tied with sutures the broken parts OF the
i yertebra were bound with fine silver wire
i Now after two years and four months
| have passed she is able to take few
i steps alone and has every reason to hope
4 that eventually she will become strong.
