once in the back, Just under the right

According to the story Of the cut
ting as told by BIch, and which is
borne out by FIVE other witnesses,
Foley went to the kitchen of the hotel
and complained OF the conditions
around the beach. He was drunk and
Burch ordered him TO leave the place,
explaining to Foley that he had moth
ing TO do with the management Of the
grounds, but was simply the steward
at the hotel. Foley then, it is said,
left the kitchen, but in a few minutes
returned and, without further arSu-
ment. began slashing Burch with
knife or razor. The screams OF
Burch brought Kid" Lewis, the clerk
in the hotel. to the kitchen, and Lewis
wsded into Foley with vim. Throw

This Afternoon.
TO THE MEDICAL STAFF


Subsequent to a resolution adopt
ed by the Board of Health Govern
ors at their meeting last week, the
Board of Managers of the same in
stitution will convene at o'clock
this afternoon in city hall. to act
on the appointment of two addition
al members to the hospital staff as
the resolution provides. But the ap-
pointment may not be made, because
two opposing factions in the
board may cause matters to remain
at a standstill.
1t is probable that the name of
DR.. G. w. Fithian Will be mentioned
for appointment. DIR. Charles I. SILK
will also be proposed. One faction,
it is said, favors the appointment of
both physicians, while the other does
not, and split will probably re-
suit.
The resolution adopted at last
Tuesdays meeting Of the Govern
ors provides that the Board of Man
.agers recommend two physicians to
Ebe appointed to the medical staff by
the Board of Governors. DR.. Silk
has already been appointed by the
six physicians who comprise the
medical staff without the approval OF
the Managers or Governors, as 'of-
ficial anaesthetizer" of the hospital
Their action will probably cause dis
cussion this afternoon.
