This was agreed on by the doctors

ond inspection OF the Array plates TAX
y en- yesterday afternoon.
II was stated that 1t was remark
able that the pieces OF lead could have
landed where they did without sever
< ing important blood vessels. In or
I. der to get them out it would be neces-
rary to cut in among veins and arter-
les with the probability OF loss OF
n blood that would weaken the patient
\ 10 avoid this it was agreed that there
would be no probing unless the may
or's temperature rises or there are
outward indications that Infection Is
present in the wound.
a call was sent out for all OF the
s doctors in the case to meet at the hos
pital at noon to discuss the case. A
plan OF treatment for the wound
\ which would keep it clean and aid in
It's rapid healing was to be devised
and general study o. che patient
made by the gunshot wound experts

Z nurses were constantly in attendance
and the wounded man joked feebly

q 50. Occasionally he would suggest
that the nurses bring him some real
e0lid food and he bewailed TO his wife
the fact that coffee and broth were
\ far from being satisfactory break
fast for a vigorous man.
occasionally he would have Difficult
~ breathing. This was due to the
\ presence of the bullet which set up
slight Irritation. His temperature was
one and one-Quarter degrees above nor
NAL, Indicating that there was no in
fcction whatever in the wound.
Since he was taken to the hospital
7 the mayor has not mentioned his as
eailant. He seems to have taken 1t
Tor granted that the assault was COM
& 1nitted by an irresponsible crank. II
v was said by Secretary Adamson, that
3 as soon as the doctors will permit. the
Wounded mayor will be taken to a
camp in the Adirondacks to recover.
\ There he can have perfect care and
rest In his favorite out-of-door sur
