HARTMAN HAS CANCER.
So Declares Rockefeller's Personal
Physician.

Cleveland. o., Aug. 27.-Dr. F. H.
Bigger, Rockefeller's personal ply
sician today declared his belief that
Hartman is suffering from cancer OF
the stomach. He says the treatment
advised by the European physician is
one suffering from cancer. In such a
case, Bigger declared, the only thing
to do would be to operate quickly.
"There are three things that cause
cancer" said Bigger, they are rapid
eating, constant work and lacq of
proper exercise. In the case of man
like Hartman who is constantly busy
cancer probably would assume a
malignant form before it would be
discovered. The instructions of the
European physician lead me to believe
that Hartman is suffering from the
dread disease. The diet of bismuth
and rice compels me to believe that a
cancer is what they are expecting.
Bismuth increases fruorescence in the
organs. Two results may follow the
coming operation on Hartman. The
cancer may be so located that by al
! tering the junction of the stomach
bowel, the life of the patient may be
prolonged. 1t is even possible to ell
inmate the stomach bowel. If the
cancer is not located and it is found
impossible to operate, it will be alb
solutely impossible to relieve him and
death is only a question of few
! weeks

DISCUSS MONETARY SYSTEM

Beverly, Mass, Aug. 26.-Presl-

rich chairman of the monetary COM
mission and with Secretary Mac
Veagh. Senator Aldrich Is about to
take up adjustment of the country's

connection that he was called in con-
ference by the president.
Mr.. Taft was anxious to ascertain
whether or not the monetary commits

answer was given but chances are that
the commission will not be able to

sideration of such legislation as the
commission may recommend.

nnent Resign in a Body.

Havana. Jan. 29.-The relations be-
tween President Gomez and Vice Pres

on the appointment of his (Gomez'sl

This afternoon Jose Jeres. the chief
of police, rendered his resignation In
response to a demand of the secre-
| tary of the governor, Nocolas Alberdi
who explained that President Gomez
has appointed as his successor Ricardo
Aranauto, former editor of Ell Recon
centrado, for political reasons. Jeres
as an official had an excellent reputa-
ton. He had been chief of the secret
police for the last 10 years
Senior Aranauto has, since the begin
ming Of the first period OF American
intervention, been an editor of a long
succession of publications, most of
which have been suppressed by the
authorities, Under the first period Of
American intervention a paper Of
which Aranauto was the editor was
suppressed for the attacks on the wife
of Brigadier General William Ludlow,
the military governor, and other Amer
lean ladies. General Ludlow this time
ordered the police to arrest Aranauto.

ity under a plea that never again
would he publish newspaper In Ha-

service tonight resigned, declining to
serve under Aranauto.
Vice President Zayas said tonight
that he had not considered the ques
ton Of a resignation. A wholesale
discharge of deputies in all depart
ments of the government was made
