Or. WILLIAM OSlER.
He Says He Has Been Misquoted In
the Newspapers.

Baltimore, Feb. 27.--Dr. William
Osler, Of the Johns Hopkins univer.
sity, whose "age limit" address at the
commemorative exercises of the uni
versily last Wednesday has been the
subject of widespread comment, gave
out the following statement:
81 have been so misqu0ted in the
papers that should like to make the
following statement: First, l did not
say that men at so should be chloro-
formed. That was the point in the
novel to which referred. and on
which the plot hinged. Second, moth
ing in the criticisms have shaken my
conviction that the telling work of the
world has done and is done by men
under 40 years of age. The exceptions
which have been given only illustrate
the rule. Third, IL would be for the
general good If men at go were re-
lieved from active work. We should
miss the energies of some young-old
men, but, on the whole, II would be of
the greatest service to the sexagenarii
themselves"
DR.. Osler was asked If the senator's
and railroad presidents who have been
named as contradictions to his theory
were comparatively useless. He an.
swered.
In many cases the work done by
those men could be better done by
younger men,"

Nearly dozen squares of modern
wharves and freight sheds, two mag

loaded cars and vast quantities of
freight, including 10000 bales of cot.

large number of small residences. H.

there has been any loss of life. The
ocean going shipping seems to have
escaped serious damage. A number of
firemen and employees Of the docks
were injured Actual estimates Of
the losses are impossible, though they
may exceed $5,OOOO0O.
The Stuyvesant docks extend from
