BULLET LIES OUTSIDE HIS RIB.
Roosevelt Prefers to Leave Lead il
Body.

Body.
Chicago.-The position of the bullet
that so nearly cost Theodore Roosevelt
his life October IA, at Milwaukee, at
the hands of John Schrack, a Bava-
rian, was fixed with precision Sunday
for the first time. An X-ray photo
graph was taken today and from this
it was learned that the bullet lay on
the outside of the broken rib. Until
this photograph was taken the physi-
clans had been unable to state posi-
lively whether it was on the outside
or inside the rib.
I'VE know definitely that the bullet
lies outside the rib, where it can do no
harm," said DR.. Lambert. 1T lies in
such position that l could reach the
spot precisely through a small incision
should Colonel Roosevelt desire to
have it removed at any time. 1t is q
matter of his own preference"
Colonel Roosevelt said he did moi
think he would ever have the bullet re-
moved.
