Nj Thomas said Governor Hughes de-
clared the bill unconstitutional. hut the
principal objection OF the railroads to IL

labor organizations TO make further I'M
just demands. He gave figures 70 show
that although full crew law is in opera
ton in Pennsylvania there We're more
railroad accidents and more killed and
injured from railroad wrecks in that
state last year than in New York
The Lehigh Valleys head presented Il
petition from fifty conductors on his road
opposing the bill
W. &. Brown declared the bin would
cost the railroads I'm this state more than
100000 a year and require tho employ
ment or two thousand men Whose services
were not necessary. Engineers and con-
ductors. he said. were generally opposed
10 the bill
The hiring OF the extra men, Mr..
Brown added. would strike a severe blow
TO agricultural interests. as they would
come mostly from the farms and fac
tories Recently we have put $50 immi-
grants TO work on New York farms. and
we have brought 70 farmers from the
West with their families. representing
$1,000 IN cash. We are now correspond
ing with 80 moro farmers. but there is
no use Of bringing these mon n you are
going 10 deplete the ranks by this bill
Mr. Rea declared II should be left 10 the
Public Service Commission whether or
not there were a sufficient number Of men
i'm train crews. and ne warned The Gov
ernor that II he signed the bill the added
expense would curtail the procuring Of
more steel cars, block signals and grade

MAD PHYSICIAN
OPERATES ON MAN
DR.. VIM. R. Dabney Sent to
Asylum After He Tries Vivi-
section on Patient-Had to
be Unarmed.

MARIETTA, o.. Aug. 14.-With the
Cincinnati Wednesday Of Or. William
r. Dabney, there has come 10 light
one of the most remarkable chapters
in medical history.
Not until the crazed surgeon had
undertaken TO perform vivisection
upon a patient was IL realized by the
attendants in the operating room that
madness was directing the arm and
scalpel as ii sought to uncover vital
organs.
1t was the death on the operation
table of an aged and wealthy farmer.
Jacob Schaad, that brought DR.. Dab
ney's career TO an end. Schaad had a
humorous growth on his upper jaw.
He consulted DR.. Dabney and was as
sured that a minor operation would
remove the disagreement
Besides DR.. Dabney and the nurse
there were present, when Schaad
lapsed into unconsciousness under the
influence of an anaesthetic, DR.. c. g..
Ballard and Dr. J. b. PenrOse. AS
DR.. Dabney proceeded with the knife
the two surgeons detected that there
was something wrong and both be-
gan TO demonstrate. DR.. Dabney be-
came angry and ordered them from
the operating room.
When the two doctors had left ac-
cOrding to the story of the nurse who
had remained trembling beside the un-
conscious patient, DR.. Dabney began
| TO dissect the face and throat of the
! unsconscious Schaad. Both sides of
| the face we're laid open, and deep in
| cisions made in the throat But the
! skill of the mad surgeon was shown
| in deXterity with which he avoided in
! fiicting a fatal wound on his living
subject
How far the crazed SURGEON would
! have proceeded with the dissection
cannot be told for the Mortified nurse
ran shrieking that Or. Dabney was
| killing his patient. Her cries brought
| Doctors Ballard and PenrOse with sew
eral Of the hospital attendants TO the
| rescue, and DR.. Dabney. by this time a
raging maniac, brandishing his scalpel
I over the unconscious living subject,
was disarmed and subdued, after a
desperate struggle
