SIX ORGANS OF
BODY REMOVED
Remarkable Surgical Operation Per
formed at a Hospital i'll New.
York City.

New York. Get. 9.-What is de,
scribed by physicians as Il remarkable
surgical oper:, ton for cancer was
performed last week at a hospital
here with apparent success. The
patient was Mrs. George Blydenburg,
wife of wealthy contractor Mrs.
Blydenburg was suffering from a can
cerouS growth of the abdominal organ.
DR.. Walter q. CrTmp after an N-Ray
examination found that her death was
only question of few days unless
something was done and decided to
perform an operation at once.
The operation lasted for nearly
three hours. In that time six organs
We're removed, including the upper
portion of the bladder, the vermifnrm
appendix, ten inches of the iliupt and
the ascending colon. According to the
physicians, operations on these in
dividual organs have been performed,
but never in a combination of six.
In commenting on the operation DR..
Crump said that 1t appeared now that
the time was not far distant when al
most any excepting the vital organs
can be removed without danger of
death.

health and leaning heavily on the arm
of friend Heinrich Conried, direc-

who has been in Europe since the
close of last season, came ashore from
the steamer Kronprinzessin Cecelie.
Mr. Conried said his physicians
abroad had advised him that he had
neuritis. He said his breakdown was
due to nervous strain over the arrest
and fining of CarusO. Caruso he said,
would sing at the Metropolitan Opera
House during the coming season.
"All Europe" he said, Laughs at
us because of CarusO. The king Of
England and the emperor of Austria
have received him and the emperor of
Germany will soon. Don't talk to me
any more about Caruso. The dread
