BLOWS KILLED CADET
Branch Died From Effects of the
Beating He Received in His Fight
With Meriwether.

Annapolis, Nd. Nov. 23.-The prosecu-
ton used its heavy artillery in the line OF
medical testimony during tOday's session
Of the court martial which is trying mid
shipman Meriwether for manslaughter IN
connection with the death Of Midshipman
Branch, important witnesses being DR.. J.
NJ. 4. Fonney. chief surgeon OF the Johns
Hopkins university Of Baltimore: DR..
same institution, and Surgeon J. G.
Byrnes, the chief medical officer attached
to the naval academy.
The operation upon Midshipman Branch,
consisting of lifting and folding over A
portion of the skull in order 10 remove
such blood clOts as might be formed, was
performed by Dr. L1nney and DR.. Thorn
as the specialist in that line, came to An
napOlis at DR.. Linneys request in order
to locate from the symptoms the proper
place for the operation. DR.. ByFnes was
called in consultation with Dr. Stone
shortly after Branch had been brought 10
the hospital.
though sometimes technical character
was given by the medical men.
All the medical officers gave it as their
very positive conviction that Branch died
from the effect Of blows he had received
in his fight with MeFiwether. They be-
Titled any possible effect - the treat
ment Branch received after the fight,
and gave ii as their opinion that no treat
ment could have saved his life The alb
sence of an autopsy was explained BY
Surgeon ByFnes. who stated that Branch
father refused his permission.

its testimony early tomorrow: in fact. 1t
