of the state board of medical registra-
ton and examination, that the Ques-
tions had been stolen. Mr.. McNeal
said this morning.:
Il have secured a statement from
John w. Edmonds. our porter, that
last year he was approached by Hill,
who offered him SIS to notify him when
the questions were printed, and steal
copy for him. Edmonds refused this
offer.
subsequently, Hill was given job
in the bindery, and worked there until
about three weeks ago.
watchman, George Ellis, that on Fri
day evening, June Z. the day that the
examination questions were printed.
Hill came there to the plant after
everybody had left. and started to go
up into the composing room. Ellis
told him he must not go up Hill said
he was going to get a rule which he
had left there. Ellis told him to get
the rule the next day; that his orders
We're to let no one into the plant. Hill
said to him, Why, you know me, don't
you? I'm Hill. used to work here
but still Ellis refused to let him go
upstairs. Then Hill came down and
commenced to hunt around among the
waste paper collected from the press
room. He told Ellis that he wanted to
find a copy of the medical examination
questions. and that if Ellis would find
a copy for him he would give him five
dollars. subsequently he raised his Of
fer to $40. He told Ellis that he
would call in the morning. Hill came
back early in the morning. Ellis says
that Hill did not come inside the
building, but simply came to the door.
1t would have been easy, however, for
someone to have gone up the back
stairs without attracting any special
attention 1t would have been sup
posed that it was one of the printers
going to work. The work of taking
proof of the questions would have then
been only matter of a few minutes.
IT do not care to state what further
proceedings will be taken. These are
the facts which have been developed
by our Investigations.
The questions seem to have been
handled by F. b. Daley of Kansas
City. Mo, one of the persons who took
the examination. A young man named
A. Heinzleman of Kansas City. Kan,
and another named lemon seem to
have known something about it. The
person in Kansas. City who got the
questions made out typewritten lists of
answers to all the questions. and seems
to have sold the answers in typewrit-
ten form Indications are that about
three-fourths of the people taking the
had the written answers.
The probability is that the examination
will have to be given entirely anew to
all applicants"
