BOTH CATS KIDNEYS TRANSPLANTED.
Successful Operation Performed at Rookie
feIler Institute on Several Animals

There was until recently q horde OF cats at the
Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research, and
from the surgeons point of view they were num-
bered among the most interesting cats in the world
They had never won a prize for beauty, for any
thing else for that matter. But they were healthy
animals picked up In alleys and back yards More
over they lived for days at the institute, at least
those which were selected Iive after having the
two kidneys including their vessels and the CORE
spending segments of the aorta and the vena cava.
transplanted in their bodies from the bodies of
other cats. A small number of the cats which fig
ured in these experiments died almost Immediately
after the operation The majority, however, lived
fer some days and one large female cat lived for
more than month It Is said that these expert
ments demonstrated that both kidneys OF a cat can
be removed and replaced by the kidneys and con-
Meeting vessels and nervous matter taken from
another cat and the cat with the new organs will
have organs performing their normal functions.
In of the results OF this research work, II fs
thought in medical circles that II will not be
long before the institute that 1t has per
fected the technique Of the operation and that the
cats made a quick recovery from the effects of the
operation
In 1902 the first attempt at transplanting kidney
was made II is said by Professor Ulnan, of Ger
many. He performed the operation dog. Three
months later he reported having transpanted the
kidney Of dog into another dog and the kidney
of dog into goat. In the same year Dr. Alexis
Carre performed dogs several transpantations Of
kidneys the University os Lyons. France In the
following year a similar operation performed
In Chicago. But not until 1906 attempt made
to remove both kidneys from dog and replace
them by both kidneys from another dog.

DR.. Asher To Be Chief Minister OF
Federation of SyldgOgues.

The Rev. DR.. Joseph Mayor Asher, pastor OF the
Congregation Orach Chain 10Th street and Lex
ington avenue, will probably soon retire from the
post which he now holds to accept the place or
chief rabbi Of the Federation of Synagogues OF
London.
Last July Lord swaything, formerly Sir Samuel
MontaSu, chosen president OF the federation,
which is composed Of about fifty congregations or
tho ultra-orthodox type. In accepting the place
Lord Swaything wrote a letter, in the course OF
which he said that IN commemoration Of the honor
conferred upon him he would select chief min
lister Of the fedora ton. The writer added;
He must have good reputation for orthodoxy,
must be a doctor of theology and d great orator;
also gentleman of refined manners about forty
years of age. and able to take a prominent posi-
ton among Jewish clerfcs. He Will cooperate IN
all orthodox movements acceptable to our board
Should he resign otherwise be prevented from

has my approval prepared to place k5,ooe IN
the hands of four trustees to enable them to pay

pal points. OF course, a proper scheme Will pc

In Jewish circles 1t thought at once that
DIR. Asher of this city, would be selected because
he fits the requirements closely and is an Eng
lishman.
Dr. Asher came to New York about five years
ago in answer to a call from the B mai Jeshurun
congregation Madison avenue and 65th street. Its

fORfMAN'S MURDER

Degree for Killing of
Jacob GrOssman


After four hours deliberation the
Jury in Judge Cooks court that tried
Samuel II. Taylor for the murder OF
Jacob Grossman found him guilty in the
second degree yesterday afternoon
Taylor will be sentenced Friday next
His punishment may be anything from
10 years to life Imprisonment.
Taylor was the cook at the construc-
ton camp of the Union Improvement
company. On the morning of February
Is. 1908, he had dispute with Gross
man. the foreman. about the latters
breakfast and when Grossman struck
him he drew an automatic. revolver and
fired seven shots at him, six of which
took effect. Grossman died within a
few hours.
The closing argument to the jury
was made yesterday by Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Hanley. Counsel for the
accused consumed the whole of the
preceding day. Hanley severely criti-
cised William J. Herrin, leading counsel
for the defense. for the way in which
he conducted the case. He charged
Herrin with misquoting testimony and
willfully misrepresenting facts to the
jury.
Never in my nine years experience
in the district attorneys office have !
been opposed by a lawyer who would
descend to the practices of Mr.. Herrin,
he said. Il have never known a shys-
ter lawyer in the police court so flag
rantly to misquote the testimony as this

Il am not nearly as rich as Hetty
Green, though l have the richest placer
mine in California" said Mrs. William
A. Stephens, an arrival at the st. Fran
els, yesterday.
Mrs. Stephens reached the city after
spending several weeks in a log cabin
near her Trinity county mining prop
erty. She was not inclined to pub
licity and would only be interviewed
over the telephone.
What could l say that would be of
interest2'' asked Mrs. Stephens.
You might discuss the interesting
fact that you, as woman, are sole
manager of your estates
IF ] didn't manage them what would
become of them?' Mrs. Stephens re-
piled quickly.
That was a puzzling question, but
suggested the response that most
women did not take the active interest
in their own affairs that the California
placer mine owner did.
well, they should, that is all I can
say. L want to look out for my own In
terests, no matter what others do
Mrs. Stephens registered from New
York. She owns heavy interests in
timber land, silver mining and other
properties in addition to her placer
mine.
