physicians say no sign of blood pois-
Joining has developed in the neck and
throat wound inflicted on Tuesday by
James J. Gallagher.
On the other hand, rumors were
afloat that his condition was worse
and that his surgeons were In the
midst of a disagreement. No official
bulletin ampilfying these rumors of
the day had been issued up to ten
O'clock tonight, but Robert Adamso1,
his secretary, and E. J. Lederle, health
commissioner of New York, gave out
a statement discrediting the reports
of friction among the medical ad
visors.
The statement does not deny the
report specifically, but by inplifica-
tion as follows:
THE surgeons in attendance on the
mayor are DR.. William J. Arlitz, DR..
)Geo. E. Brewer, DR.. Geo. D. Stewart.
DR.. Chas. N. Dowd. In their absence
|on Wednesday afternoon, DR.. Charles
E. Peck attended the mayor. The
mayors family physician, DR.. John
W. Parrish, also attended him. No
other surgeons or physicians have at
any time been connected with the
case. This statement is necessary
because of unfounded reports and
statements by those pretending to be
connected with the mayors physi-
|cians."
The patients irritability this after
noon and the barring from the sick
room of all save Mrs. GaynOr and the
|attending physicians, first gave rise
to these disquieting rumors.
1t was admitted the mayor had
lost, temporarily, his cheerful spirit
and had requested that his wife re-
main near his bedside constantly.
Because of soreness of the wounded
throat, an antiseptic spray was used
frequently, and it was during this
process that the mayor showed signs
Iof fretting.
Reports that dissension had arisen
among the physicians over the ad-
Instability of an operation met with
prompt denial, but nevertheless per-
sistent rumors came from the hospi-
tai that there was serious difference
of opinion as to the course to be pur-
sued.
One physician, il is said, holds that
the bullet should be removed imme-
diately, while others maintain they
should let we'll enough alone, as there
is no sign of infection.
John P. Mitchell, acting mayor, Wis
lifted the hospital this afternoon, but
was not allowed to 60 to the sick
room. Departing, he said nothing OF
the reported friction among the ply
sicia1s.

Minot, N. g., Aug. 11.-Another
chapter in the notorious Logan story,
which for weeks had held the arten-
ton of the police and public, was
brought to light last night through the
letter published in the Minot Optic in
which an anxious mother asks for tid'
ings of her wandering daughter.
The paper had been on the streets
but a few minutes when the police
department was notified that Myrtle
Mae Summers asked for was none
other than Mrs. Mae Logan, who on
June 80 shot and killed her husband
in self-defense. At the time of the
tragedy every effort was used by the
police and newspapers to scure from
the woman a confession as to the
true name of her husband or her own
former history. She refused to talk,
except to say that her husband had
been wanted by the police of Iowa.
Mrs. Logan is now at Bismarck and
has been notified by the police that
her mother, Mrs. John Hagestrom, Of
Sioux City, Ia, is anxious to hear from
her on account of the serious illness
of brother.

New York. Aug. 11.-Mayor
William J. Gaynor may be max
ing satisfactory progress, as his
atten ding physicians persistent
ly maintain today and tonight, but
there is an undercurrent of anx-
iety evidenced tonight that runs
contrary to the official bulletins.
His surgeons say he had salts
factory day, that he is cheerful
and stronger and WAS resting
quietly, more than holding his
own against the shot wound in
flicted Tuesday by James J. Gal
lagher.
AS opposed to this attitude of
optimism, those who read the
1O:3O bulletin thoughtfully noted
references to complete radio
graphic" examinations, indicat-
ing that it was necessary to take
a SECOND set of negatives in or
der to accurately find the position
of the bullet. That an additional
set Of negatives was taken has
been reported heretofore, but the
rumo1 lacked confirmation.
Nothing is said in the bulletin
of the split bullet" mentioned as
indicated in the first pictures.
Instead, the lead is now said to
be lodged in the roof of the
mouth. Whether the other shad-
ow as indicated in the first pic
lures is a splinter of bone, none
of the physicians would say.
A sample of the patients blood
was examined carefully this even
ing and pronounced satisfactory,
the relation of the white and red
blood corpuscles having been
found so near normal as to cause
no alarm.

After fifteen months absence, exact
ly as scheduled, Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt disembarked. from the Kai-
serin Auguste Victoria, Saturday morn
ing, June IS, at II a. m. To the keen
disappointment of large group of
newspaper correspondents, Mr.. Roose-
welt absolutely refused, as heretofore,
to be interviewed or to talk on politi-
cal subjects, but his rapid fire of ques-
lions showed the same virile interest
in public affairs as before.
If the welcome rendered by the
vast throng may be considered a
criterion upon which to base Ere
turn from Elba," surely there was no
discordant note in the immense recep-
tion-parade, nor in the wildly clamor-
GUS crowd which cheered at every
glimpse and hung on his very word.
The incidents of the day in New
York were many, but perhaps none
better illustrated the nervous energy
and vitality of the man, the near-mania
to be up-and-doing, which he has
brought back to us, than the discard
ing of horses and carriages for the
swifter and more reliable automobiles.

COUNTRY'S WEALTH IN OIL
Industry That Has Grown to Enor-
nous proportions Within a Few
Years.

The production of oil in the United
States has grown from nothing at the
time of its discovery to enormous pro-
portions. Millions of barrels have been
taken from the country near the west
ern slope of the Alleghenies in west
ern Pennsylvania, and millions more
from the districts in West Virginia
and Ohio Indiana has yielded its
share and Illinois has been productive
beyond the dreams of avarice.
1t remained, however, for Kansas
and Oklahoma, together with the In
dian Territory, to open the eyes of the
modern driller and capitalists. When
the soil was first tapped in the wild
eating operations of that section
great gushers rewarded the efforts Of
the men who had the courage and cap
ital to engage in the enterprise. The
usual rush followed, but many thou
sands Of acres had been already taken
up and the war for supremacy began.

tinued for about three weeks. At the
end of that time was able to be

Controlled Newspapers.

The Atchison Globe says that no ad.
vertiser has ever tried to control its ed
itorial policy, the remark being coca
stoned by the charge often made nova
days, that the big advertisers direct
the editorial policy. of newspapers.
The experience of the Globe is the
experience of most newspapers. The
merchant who does great deal of adj
vertising is, more interested In the cir
culation department Of newspaper
than in the editorial department: If a
daily papsEL goes to the homes of the
people, anu is read by them, he is salts
fed, and it may chase after any theory
or fad, for all he cares. He has troubles
of his own, and he isn't trying to Shout
der those of the editorial brethren.
There are newspapers controlled by
people outside of the editorial rooms,
and good many of them, mores the
pity; but the people exercising that
control are not the business men who
pay their money for advertising space.
= The newspapers which are established
for political purposes are often con-
trolled by chronic officeseekers, whose
first concern is their own interests.
There are newspapers controlled by
great corporations, and the voice of
such newspapers is always raised in
protest against any genuine reform.
The average western newspaper usu-
ally is controlled by its owner, and he
is supposed to be in duty bound to make
all sorts of sacrifices at all sorts of
times; there are people who consider
it his duty to insult his advertisers,
just to show that he is free and indie
pendent If he shows a decent respect
for his patrons, who pay him their
money, and make it possible for him to
carry on the business, he is "subsi-
died" or controlled" The newspaper
owner is a business man, like the dry
goods man or the grocer The mer-
chants are expected to have considera--
ton for their customers, and they are
not supposed to be subsidized by the
man who kspends five dollars with
them, but the publisher is expected to
demonstrate his courage by showing
that he is ungrateful for the patron
age of his friends. 1t is funny COM
bination when you think it over
