BRACKETT MUST
RESIGN OFFICE
Mayor Schmitz Decides to
Appoint DR.. j. [. Stephens
Chief Emergency Surgeon

Mayor Schmitz made the definite an
nouncement yesterday that he had
fully made up his mind to appoint a
successor to DR.. George F. Brackett,
chief emergency surgeon, who is un-
der fire for having accepted a fee while
acting in his official capacity, and to
that end DR.. Bracket will be COM
PEELED to resign the position.
In all probability DR.. John I. Ste
phens, at one time acting chief emer-
gency surgeon during Brackets alb
sence in the East, will be named for
the place. DR.. c. F. Millar, at present
one of the assistant surgeons, is a
strong applicant for the place, and DR..
j. Copley Stinson, a member of the
Health Board, would prefer the salaried
position to the honorary one he now oc-
cupies.
While both Millar and Stinson are
highly thought of by the Mayor, his
Honor will appoint Stephens as chief
surgeon in accordance with previous
plans, unless something should inter-
vene in the meantime to cause him to
change his mind.
| In his announced intention of asking
DR.. Bracket for his resignation Mayor
Schmitz says that he has not yet made
up his mind to find Bracket guilty of
any dishonest act in connection with
the disclosures made by Mortimer
Fleishhacker and Mrs. Bessie Ames.
II will give DR.. Brackets attorney
an opportunity Monday morning at
II o'clock to explain certain alleged
discrepancies in the testimony of the
accusing Witnesses said the Mayor.
''Then will have DIR. Ward, president
of the Health Board, and DR.. Bracket
in my Office for the purpose of going
over the testimony and the details con-
nected Herewith. l will then prepare
my findings in the premises and make
them public. 1 will say that the rules
of the Health Board must be obeyed
by all of its subordinates, and it looks
to me that one or two forced resigna-
| tions will have q salutary effect in
stopping further violations thereof"

pointee to Brackets place, conducted

FINAL ACTION
IN CANAL DEAL
Panama Company Share
holders Ratify Sale of Wa
terway to the United States
FEW NEGATIVE VOTES
Secretary Hay Will Now Pay
to New Republic $10,000,-
900 to Which 1t Is Entitled

PARIS, April 23.-The resolution
of the Panama Canal Company share
holders ratifying the sale of the canal
to the United States was adopted al
most unanimously. There were only
five votes against it.
The second Panama resolution was
adopted There were only two dis
senting votes. The meeting then ad-
journed.
This completes the transfer of the
canal to the United States.
WASHINGTON, April 2s.-The
State Department has been notified Of
the conclusion in Paris of the con-
tract for the sale to the United States
Government by the Panama Canal
Company Of all its franchises and
property on the isthmus. The money
for the canal company will be paid
over by the Secretary of the Treasury
it is understood. Secretary Hay him
self will pay to the state of Panama
the $10,000,000 to which 1t has be-
come entitled. This payment will be
made in Washington to Senior Arose
mena, the newly appointed Minister
from Panama, as soon as the Govern
ment of that state authorizes him by
cable to accept the money. The au-
thorities in Panama have become
clamorous for this payment, as the
money is needed to defray certain ex
penses already incurred in connection
with the creation of the new state.
The large fleet of United States
warships which assembled on both
coasts of the isthmus of Panama soon
after the revolution has been gradu-
ally reduced by the departure of
ships for other points until now but
two remain to safeguard the interests
of the United States in that quarter.
The cruiser Boston is at Panama and
the cruiser Newark at Colon.
The monitor Wyoming and the tor
pedo-boat destroyers Preble and Paul
Jones left Panama yesterday for Aca-
pulco on their way to Pechilinoue
Bay, where they will remain for sew
eral days and then proceed to San
Francisco.

January Bracket went East to study
the operations of emergency hospitals,
but it is said that he did not bring back
a single report thereon. A few days
after Brackett assumed charge of the
hospitals here Stephens resigned, be-
cause he could not get along with the
first named. In all probability DR..
Brackets resignation will be accepted
at next Thursdays meeting of the

PREPARING TROUBLE
FOR ADMIRAL EVANS
Friends of a Court -Martialed Pay
master Allege That He Was

hloStCE ADCSO 1Adt AAO was
Prosecuted.
WASHINGTON, April 23.-Admiral
Evans, who is coming home on the bat
tleship Kentucky from command Of
the Asiatic station, may run into a
mess Of trouble being prepared by Pay
master Harry e. Disco. The record of
the court-martial of Bisco. charged
with neglect in the supervision of Ger
tain stores, has been received-in Wash
ington. 1t was to-day examined by an
attorney said to have been retained by
certain friends and relatives Of Disco,
who believe him to have been perse-
cuted by admiral Evans.
Paymaster Disco and Rear Admiral
Evans have not enjoyed good relations
since the former was member Of a
court which tried Assistant Paymaster
Nicholson for having assaulted the
German Consul at Chefu, China. The
court recommended sentence which
Rear Admiral Evans considered made
quate, and he said so in one Of the
most violent castigations ever uttered
by the reviewing authority of court
martial.
Paymaster Disco appealed from his
harsh language, but Admiral Evans
was sustained by the Secretary of the
Navy and President Roosevelt. Pay
master Disco was later court-martialed.
and Bisco's friends have stated that
the court-martial was ordered by Rear
Admiral Evans, although the court of
inquiry recommended only the court
martial of a yeoman who had served
under Paymaster Bisco.
Disco has just been ordered home
from the Asiatic station. His father
in-law, L. r. Hammersley of New York.
has been extremely active in his be-
half.

DEATH SENTENCE GIVEN
LORD" f. S. HARRINGTON
Man Who Murdered James McCann,
His Benefactor, Gets Extreme
Penalty of Law.

ST. LOUIS, April %. - Sentence
was to-day passed upon Lord" Fred
erick Seymour harrington in the Cir
cult Court at Clayton, who was recent
ly convicted of having killed James P.
Mccain, his benefactor. Judge NOEL
henny set the date for the execution
for June ID, but later granted a stay
of execution until after July 23.
Darlington entered the courtroom
smiling and bearing himself with that
self-possession that characterized him
throughout his trial. When the court
asked him if he had anything to say
before sentence was pronounced Bar
rington replied:
mo, ! have nothing to say, except
that have not been given fair trial.
1 had. intended reviewing my defense.
but in Difference to my attorney 1 will
say nothing more"
When the sentence was pronounced
harrington almost collapsed. His face
became ashen and he sank into a
chair, his hands clasped in mute de-
spair as he intently listened to his at
torney asking for stay Of execution.
