NO FEARS FOR MCLAUGHLIN.
Family Of Young Man Who Left
Here Suddenly Not Worried.

No special apprehension is felt by the
members of his family for the safety of
Edward Mclaughlin, who left his home al
1921 street northeast suddenly yester-
day morning with the expressed inten-
ton Of seeking employment in the south.
Young Mclaughlin was struck on the
, head by a base ball in Macon, Ga, about
two years ago. and since then has been
subject to commissions. Since then he
has been under treatment at hospitals in
Macon, Jacksonville, Baltimore and this
city.
Several weeks ago he was operated on
by Dr. J. r. Wellington at the Casualty
Hospital for compression Of the brain
and was discharged only two weeks ago
as cured.
His departure for the south was the
result Of a sudden resolve on his part.
He felt that he had a better chance OF
getting employment at Macon or other
places in the south, where he was better
known than In this city. His mother was
not entirely satisfied that he was suf-
ficiently strong to 60 away and work IN
strange place. and opposed his depart
ure mainly on that account
Claude +. Mclaughlin, the boys father,
who is clerk in the adjutant general 8
office In the War Department, said this
morning that there was no real occasion
for any alarm over the boys absence.
He was we'll supplied with money and
entirely capable Of making his way TO
Macon and taking care Of himself under
all ordinary circumstances. Although he
has suffered from commissions in the
past, they have become infrequent &C.
currences of late, and his parents have
now no reason to anticipate any trouble
of that kind. Mr.. Mclaughlin thinks
that his son went to Baltimore by the
electric line and took a steamer for Sa-
vannah. He fully expects to hear from
his son as soon as he Is settled.
