traordinary to King George,

Rochester. Mimi, where. he declared, is
situated the worlds greatest hospital,
which is conducted by the Drs. Mayo.
There he will remain several weeks max
ing a special study Of hygiene as exer-
cised in that institution. and the Mayo
diagnosis and operative treatment Of
diseases of the stomach.
Il have heard SO much about Ameri-
can research and hospital work and the
wonderful equipments that decided to
make a trip myself. and during the time
I am here I must be regarded as a stu
dent. While in New York I visited the
Rockefeller Research Institute and Hos
pital. 1t is the most wonderful institu-
tion of its kind in the world.
Your wealthy men are extremely far
sighted and liberal in their attitude to-
ward medical research" continued the
see a big thing they don't daily with IL.
They go right at it. am forced to
admit that no cure has yet been found
for cancer. but medical science is max
ing great strides in the right direction,
and America is doing a great share OF
the work"
Sir Bertrand will also visit the Johns
Hopkins Hospital. at Baltimore. He will
also make special study of the mu-
nictpal hospitals OF the larger cities,
especially the Cook County Hospital. in
Chicago. and the Bellevue Hospital. in
New York. comparing the work there
with that OF the London City Hospital
where until a few years ago he was in
charge, resigning on account of private
practice. DR.. Dawson is stiIl a young
man. but has written many volumes re-
lating TO his profession. which are aC-
cepted as standard texts in nearly all
the European schools.

BABE
DIES IN HOSPITAL
Police, Seeking Person Who
Left Child to Fate, Ex-
peet Arrest.
LEFT ON TOP OF WALL

Abandoned a few hours after his birth
by a person whose identity has not been
learned. a pretty baby boy died at Found
ling Hospital. MS Fifteenth street north
west. last night just twelve hours after
he was found in a basket on top Of the
stone wall surrounding Garfield Hospital
Shielded only by a woman's himsy
dressing gown from the chill winds
which swept the city. the infant was in
a serious condition when discovered. and
though physicians labored all day to pro-
long the young life. the babe succumbed
from the effects OF exposure.
With every policeman n pne city and
detectives from the Central office work.
ing under the direction OF Coroner New
tit, seeking to find the person VINO left
the child TO his fate, officials declare II
is likely an arrest will be made within
twenty-four hours despite the absence
Of single clew on which TO base the
investigation.
Found by Policeman.
Bicycle Policeman William NJ. Rout,
OF the Tenth precinct, was riding in
Sherman avenue, between Euclid street
and Berry place. shortly after O'Clock
in the morning. when he heard a feeble
wall Looking around. he saw a market
basket on top OF the stone wall bounding
the Garfield Hospital grounds.
Inside the basket was the baby. Rout
lifted the child, and the dressing gown
fell to the street. The babe was nude,
and It's tiny body was so cold the police
man feared he would die in his arms.
Rout hurried to the station with the
child after wrapping him as warm as
possible in the gown. From the station
the boy was carried to the Founding
Hospital by Policeman Winbern c. Ad-
cock.
After wailing without cessation from
the time he was found. the infant died
at O'Clock last night DR.. II. II. Dom
nally. OF 1872 I street northwest. pro-
nounced death due to exposure. Coroner
hewitt was at once notified. and the ac-
tivities OF the police. who had been IN
vestigating the case since morning, were
given impetus.
Charge of InfantIcIde.
The maximum punishment for aban-
donment is $50 fine and two years in
the penitentiary but IL the culprit is
apprehended the police may lodge the
more serious charge OF infanticide. Not
since the famous case OF ten years ago.
when a physician abandoned an infant
In an ash barrel and the babe died after
being found have the police made such
earnest efforts to locate the guilty per-
son.
That the death of the child abandoned
yesterday was due 10 exposure is beyond
doubt, declare physicians. They say the
babe was healthy and weighed nearly
ten pounds, and would have lived IL not
abandoned. There was no mark on the
dressing gown or basket which might
be used as clew 10 the Identity OF the
person being sought. and the child did
not have on a stitch of clothing. =

LIEUT.. READ WILL
MEYER WALK AGAIN
Operation Proves Unsuccessful and
Hope Of Curing Paralyzed Of
fcer Is Abandoned.

Two weeks ago an aged woman sat In
an ante-room in the United States Ma
val Hospital and repeatedly inquired OF
the attendants the condition Of her boy
Lieut.. Semmes Read. For three weary
hours she awaited a definite announce
ment from the operating room which
would tell her whether or not her invalid
son was TO walk again. Finally Il came.
and she bore the shock with the same
fortitude that has marked the attitude
OF Lieut.. Read during the three years
OF imprisonment suffered by him-she
was informed that he will never walk
again, and must he content to lie in bed
for the rest Of his life.
The operation was only considered after
the young lieutenant and his mother had
given their consent TO Surg. Gen. Stokes
and Surg. Raymond Spear. L. S. N, and
the fact that such an operation might
prove fatal did not dissuade them from
their purpose TO determine whether or
not a cure could be effected. Therefore,
an eminent surgeon was summoned. and
two weeks ago last Saturday the oper-
alton took place.
The surgeon who performed the oper-
alton was DR.. Harvey Gushing. the noted
specialist of Johns Hopkins University,
who is perhaps. the most competent mas
ter OF the scalpel in this country. Every
artifice known TO surgery was resorted to
in order to restore the power Of locomo-
tion TO Reads limbs. and he bore the
ordeal with a stoicism becoming an Off
Ger of the United States navy-but in
vain.
Efforts Are Vain. V
1t was announced at the hospital last
night that the operation had done little
IL any good. and that the young officer
would be a cripple the rest of his life.
He may live twenty years. the author
tiles say, but never again will he be able
to walk. 1t is not probable that another
operation will be attempted.
Another thing that makes the prob
ability of another operation seem re-
mote Is the fact that Read is in poor
condition to withstand the shock. His
heart action is weakened and his consti-
tuition offers but little resistance.
Lieut.. Read was born in Maryland in
1850 and appointed to the Naval Acad-
emy in 1895. He was serving as an aid
to the President three years ago, and
while accompanying the Chief Executive
through Rock Greek Park was thrown
from his horse, receiving an injury to
his back which has kept him an invalid
ever since. On two former occasions
operations were performed. but they
were productive of nothing. The broken
bones of his spine pressing against his
spinal cord have completely paralyzed
him below the waist line.
Despite his injury, Lieut.. Read Is one
of the most cheerful patients in the hos
pital, and no one knows better than he
that he will never again be able to walk.
He is holding out, however, believing
that modern science may, within a short
time, produce remedy. The failure of
DR.. Gushing. however. makes this pos
sibility seem quite unlikely.

from his wife Margaret. He alleges
in his libel that Margaret is consid-

be permitted to continue to exercise
control or authority over their five
minor children, the custody of whom
he prays the court to award to him.
