HERSURGERY
COST DIGIT
FROM a STAR correspOndent.l

ELIZABETH, June 25.-Amateur
surgery, said to have been practised
by a fond mother, was the indirect
cause of the loss of a finger to
George Wallace, 8 years old, Of 2S4
Second street.
Several days ago, while spreading
jam on a slice of bread during the
absence of his mother, the boy
slashed his Index finger. He tried to
stop the flow of blood before the ar
rival of his mother, as he did not
wish her to know that he was forag-
ing In the pantry, but without sue
cess. and when the parent arrived he
was faint from loss of blood.
The mother, frightened by the con
dition of her son and being without
aid of any kind. placed a rubber band
a half-inch above the cut, compress
ing the blood vessels and causing the
blood to stop it's flow. Several days
later, Mrs. Wallace, who had forgot.
ten to remove the rubber band, no.
ticed a swelling of the boys fingers,
and upon investigation found that
the blood had concealed.
The boy was sent to the Alexian
Brothers Hospital. where 1t was
found that he was suffering from
gangrene. In fear that the disease
would extend, the finger was ampu-
tated yesterday and today the boy is
resting easily.

MAY ABOLISH JOB
OF PRISON KEEPER

TRENTON. June 25.-The State
Civil Service Commission yesterday
wrestled with the application Of Head
Keeper Madden. of the State prison,
to have the position of centre keeper
put in the exempt class, and finally
laid the matter over because of a
subsequent request from Mr.. Madden
to have the position abolished.
The position of centre keeper is now
held by James Kersey. an active Re-
publican worker. The centre keeper
has always been in charge of the
prison whenever the head keeper was
absent, and Mr. Madden wants a man
in the place of his own choosing or
else wants the position abolished alto
gether.
Mr.. Colby was instructed to write
Mr.. Madden hat the board did not
want to act upon the alternative
proposition, but desired him to ex-
press his choice as to which Of the
propositions he desired considered.

BEEF TRUST
TO RETAIL?

OF all the causes, direct and indi-
rect, hat have been suggested in ex-
PLANTATION of the high cost of living,
there has been one so startling and
revolutionary in its nature as the
cause advanced by many retail butch
ers of the high cost of meat. If the
declarations of many of the retail
butchers is true, the reason for high
priced meat is easily explained and
readily understood. They assert that
the so-called Beef Trust" Is squeez-
ing out the retail butcher and the
small dealer by raising the prices Of
meat, and at the same time is plan
ming to open a chain of markets of it's
own. That Is the rumor going the
rounds at the Centre Market.
Beef has taken another jump of a
half q zen this week, and there
seems to be nc prospect of its COM
ing down this summer.
A prominent butcher in Centre
Market, who has beer in business in
this city for thirty-two years, says
he has never seen the prices so high
before.
There is a plentiful supply of beef
in the country" said he, but we GER
tainly have to pay the price that's put
upon it by the big interests"
1t seems to be the general COM
plant of all the butchers that they
must pay the price, although the
supply Is plentiful.
we have no trouble in getting all
the meat we want" said another,
but they make us pay prices for 1t
that r much higher than what the
same meat should be retailed for. 1
should think the public would protest
harder than they do. 1t is for the
public to make the kick and not for
u.s.
Several butchers were asked about
the rumor of the chain of markets
controlled by the trust and admitted
they had heard of such a plan.

DID EDNA GOODRICH
EVER SUE THAW?

NE WYORK, June 25.-That Edna
Goodrich, the actress, who recently
divorced Nat Goodwin. once sued
Harry Thaw for breach of promise,
was the surprise sprung during the
hearing in the Supreme Court at
White Plains to determine whether
Thaw Is sane enough to be released
from Matteawan.
Evelyn Nesbit Thaw vas being
CROSS examined by Clarence j.
Shearn, counsel for Thaw. Sudden
ly Mr.. Shearn asked the witness:
What about the breach of prom
Use suit which Edna Goodrich brought
against Harry Thaw?"
Better go slow on that" said
Mrs. Thaw. 1t was withdrawn.
Mr.. Shearn did not refer to the mat
ter again.
The days proceedings were favor
able to Thaw. He seemed to enjoy the
discontinue of Special Deputy Attor-
ney-General Jerome on several occa-
sions.
Jeromes' principal witness, Hartig
Weld, who had been an assistant spir-
itual adviser in the Tombs prison, adj
mitted on cross-examination that he
had once served a jail sentence for
perjury.
Mrs. Thaw's testimony dealt mainly
with the story leading up to the
killing of Stanford White. She made
It plain that she does not want to
have Thaw liberated, saying: II don't
want him to get out; he might kill
me next"
