the question of damages. which he said was
the only real question involved he declar-

to show that Kansas had suffered any.
Even the Kansas witnesses were not agreed
on that point. He ridiculed the idea that
there could ever have been any navigation

ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION
VARIETY OF SUGGESTIONS MADE

Word has been received here by wireless
telegraphy that the Steamer Amerika on
which DR. ]. Ford Thompson of this city
is a passenger. will reach New York at
o'clock tomorrow evening. DR.. Thompson
was recently operated upon in London and
several weeks ago alarming reports of his
condition were received here. He has so
far recovered, however, that he is able to
travel and sliled from Plymouth six days
ago for New York. He will remain in
New York Saturday night and will come to
this city Sunday.
With the homecoming of Dr. Thompson
there has been started among prominent
physicians of this city a project for the cele
bration of the fftieth anniversary of his
practice of surgery, nearly all of which

has been in this city. On the Goth of next
March he will be seventy years of age He
began the practice of his profession when
twenty years old.
just what form the celebration of the
anniversary will take has not. been de-
termined. but there have been suggestions
of various kinds. One has favored the
pledging of a sum OF money for the pur-
pose of the erection of a statue in this
surgeon and in view of the fact that he has
for many years ranked one of the fore
most surgeons of this country.
DR.. Thompson's Record
DIR. Thompson has during his long career
been connected with every hospital in the
District of Columbia. He was member
of the faculty of Columbian University for
many years. In 1866 he was appointed a
professor of anatomy and physiology in
Columbian College, and in 1872 he was ap-
pointed professor of surgery, which position
lie held until his resignation shortly before
his departure for Europe last fall.
DIR. Thompson has been accorded the hon
or. considering the many years of his resi-
dence here of being the most distinguished
surgeon of this city. During these many
Years he has been known "a the professional
world not only in this country but abroad
we'll He has written extensively for
medical journals.
When ii was known that he would return
here following the surgical operation in
London there was considerable talk of Civ
Ing him reception upon his arrival, but
operation caused his friends to change their
pans. They now propose. as stated, to eel
citrate the tiftieth anniversary of his prac-
tiCe of surgery next March.

ries He made plea for an equitable dis
tribution Of the Arkansas waters as between

to perform this function. He suggested the

and not monopoly" he said.

Suggestion by Hospital Governors.

Members of the board of governors of the
Garfield Hospital, with which DIR. Thomp-
son was closely connected and which he
assisted in organizing. have expressed a
preference that the movement for a cee-
bratiOn of DR.. Thompsons anniversary
should take the form of a guarantee fund
for memorial statue to- De erected here.
Mrs John A. Logan of the board has sug-
gested that this be done
Another suggestion favored has been for
a reception and the presentation of some
fitting gift commemorative of the occasion.
1t is said that records of the hospitals of
this city for many years tell the story of
the achievements of Dr.. Thompson in sur
gerry, and the suggestion has therefore been
made that from these records some compre-
hensive narrative be formulated showing
the nature of the labors of the surgeon 1t
is said that many improvements in surgery
here have been introduced by DR. Thomp-
son, who was not only well posted upon
the progress of surgery abroad, but origi-
mated Improvements that have been gener-
ally introduced into the practice of surgery.
DR. Thomas e. McArdle, son-in-law of
Dr. Thompson. went to New York today in
order to greet him on his arrival from
Europe DIR. Thompson is accompanied by
his two daughters who went to the other
side when their father became seriously i'll.
