DR.. BULLS CAIN DUE TO USE
OF new CANCER TREATMENT
Result May Give to the World Effective Method for Fight
ing Malady, His Physicians Hope-Patent
and Wife Go South Tomorrow

From so high an authority as Prot.
James Ewing, who has charge OF the
laboratories OF the Cornell Medical
School. First avenue and Twenty-eighth
street, it was positively stated to-day
that the Improvement in the condition
OF DR.. William Tillinghast Bull for the
past two months is due to treatment
that is being watched with intense in
terest by the medical profession.
This fact was exclusively stated IN
The Evening World yesterday and the
bulletin issued by the physicians in at.
tendance does not deny that the cam
Cerous growth has responded to treat
ment. but that the response cannot be
accepted al this time as n cure. Whether
this treatment is to accomplish what
science has been struggling TO attain
fer centurles--a cure for cancer-will he
determined in the case Of DR.. Bull.
Treatment Kept Secret.
Every possible effort was made to
keep secret the fact that new method
OF lighting cancer was being employed
in the case Of the famous surgeon. No
public mention was made until to-day
OF the fact that DR.. Bulls treatment
was being conducted from the labora-
tories OF the Cornell Medical School UNI
der the direction OF Prof. Ewing and
Dr. S. p. Beebe.
An Evening World reporter saw
Prof. Ewing in his office at the Cornell
Medical School to-day ana obtained the
following statement from him;

quiet, too, But ill-considered attacks
upon the scrappy members OF the Senate
who put Wallis out OF the running
opened UP the whole matter.
And now it transpires that the very
documents in the Insurance Depart
ment which, when spoken o. In the
Senate, impelled Mr.. Wallis to refuse
the office of State Superintendent, were
originally addressed to the Governor
himself They were not examined in
the Governors office apparently, but
were passed along to the department
OF Insurance as matters of routine
business. Therefore the Governor Is
shown ZIP as having had chunce to

Bill introduced in the Legis
ldture.
Present law Forbids Grouse
Shooting Until
1915.

A great deal of dissatisfacti( n
was caused two years ago, by
the enactment of a law forbid
ing the shooting of grouse in this
county until the first day of Sep
TENDER 1915. Many of the coun-
ties in the northern part of the
state were Disseminated against
in this particular law. Ashland
Bayfield, and Douglas counties
were put in the prohibited list,
while Washburn and Sawyer
county hunters were allowed to
shoot grouse in their own coun-
ties. Senator Sanborn, at the
request of great many sports
men, has introduced a bill provi-
ding that grouse may be killed
in Ashland, Bayfield, and Douglas
counties between October Is and
October 31st. While this makes
the season a great deal shorter
than it was under the law prior
to two years ago, it is much bet
ter than an entirely closed sea
son. Those who are interested
in the matter are satisfied with
the bill as introduced.
