CRAZY SURGEON STARTED
 TO pIssEcT PATIENT.
Wealthy Farmer of Ohio Was the
 Victim.

Marietta. O., Aug. 13.--With the com n1itment to Long View asylum in Cin- clnnati today of Dr. William R. Dab ney there has come to light one of the most remarkable chapters in medical history.
 Not until the erazed surgeon had undertaken to perform viviSection up- on patient was 1t realized by the att tendants in the operating room that madness was directing the scalpel in an effort to uncover vital organs.
 Dr, Dabney entered practice in Mari etta about Is years ago. He made a speciality of eye, ear and throat opera- tions. Fer several months previous to his mental collapse and the startling revelations of his condition rarely a day passed that he did not perform two OF three difficult eperatnions, It was the death on the operating table of an aged and wealthy farmer. Jacob F. Sehaad, that brought Dr. Dabney'S career to a climax. Schaad had a tu- herous growth on his upper jaw: He consulted DF. Dabney and was assured that minor operation would remove the disfigHfeH Heat.
 Besides Df. Dabney and >the nurse, there were present when Schaad lapsed iRte uhc0nSei6uSneS under the lnfiu- eRee of an aHaesthetie Dr. c. B. Bal= iaFd and DF. J, B. Penrose. AS Dr. Dabney proceeded with the knife the
  something wrong and both began to rem onstrate.
 Dr. Dahney became. angry and order ed them from the operating room.
 When the two doctors left, accord ing to the story of the nurse who had remained beside the unconscious pa- tient, Dr. Dabney began to dissect Schaad's face and throat. Both sides of the face were laid open and deep incisions made in the throat. But the skill of the mad surgeon was shown in the dexferity with which he avoided infiicting fatal wound
 How far the crazed surgeon would have proceeded with the dissection cannot be told, for the mortified nurse ran shrieking that pr. Dabney was killing his patient Her cries brought Drs. Ballard and Penrose with sev- eral of the hospital attendants to the rescue, and Dr. Dabney. by this time a raving maniac, brandishing his seal pei over the unconscious living sub- ject, was disarmed and subdued after a deSDerate struggle

9s Washington, Aug. 13.-Henry Lane Wilson, the furloughed ambassador to Mexico, issued statement here today. credited to the British foreign office declaring that Great Britain had recog- nized the Huerta government as pro- visional government only; that it's recognition was prompted by desire to contribute to the reSoration of order and also because of Wilson's congratu- latory speech on the occasion of the reception of the Mexico City diplo- mate corps by Huerta.
 MT. Wilson characterized the stateS ment as tat variance with the tradi- tfons of the British foreign office and with the character it has maintained before the world for two centurfes.'
 II doubt the genuiness of the state< ment as 1t is a pure subterfuge un- worthy of the British office" said MT. Wilson in a lengthy discussion.

Will Seek
 Nomination
GOV. TOSS GIVES INDICATION THAT HE WILL BE- CANDIDATE
FROM REPUBLICANS
Thrice Elected on Democratic Ticket, lie seoms to be Ready to Quit the Party Now.

Boston, Aug. Ex-Governor Eugene N. FOSs, who was one of the demo- cratic candidates for the presidential nomination last year, made public brief statement today which was gem .erally interpreted by political leaders to mean that he would seek the re- publican nomination for governor at next month s~ primaries. Should the governor return to the republican ranks which he left to be elected as a democratic congressman in a strong republican district, and subsequently to be elected governor for three suc- cessive terms on democratic ticket in what is known as a rock ribbed republican zstate,',-it would mean three -cornered contest at the pri- maries.
 Three cornered Contest.
 Colonel Everett c. Benton. last year S defeated republican standard bearer, have already announced that they would seek the republican nomination.
 Governor Foss statement. which he read today before a meeting of the executive counsel in reply to Ques- ton from Councillor Guy A. Ham, was.
 If am a candidate for the repub- lican nomination, I will abide by the result of the republican primaries and not run later as an independent can d1date. if defeated"
 Will Abide by Primary.
 Tonight. before a group of question: CTS, the governor said:
 Well, you know the governor is a pretty good old sport and you can bet that in this three eornered fight he will abide by the decision, But he is fighting te win and there is not the slightest doubt in his mind as te what the result will be. There is nothing to any report that I will Fun independent ly, if beaten"
 No Sane Tariff from Democrats.
 The governor has frequently ex- pressed dissatisfaction with the pres ent national democratic administra- ton, saying recently:
 q am now convinced that at least the present national leaders of the democratic party offer no hope to the country of a sane tariff revision"

 Betrayal of Constituents.
 That was a disaster, a treacherous betrayal of as loyal constituency aS d great political party ever had. Now we have. the same principle as~ reci- procity embodied in this bill. It does not impeach the democratic party of inconsistency as it impeached us, but I believe it will have the same effect.'
 England as an illustration.
 Reverting to England for an ilIus- tration of what free trade has done for the farmer, Senator Borah present. ed statistics to show that in 1866 there were 3.126,000 acres of wheat in Eng land and only 38,000 acres at the present time; 1,S77s000 acres in barley in 1884 and S6.800 acres at the pres ent time. This ratio continuing, Sena- tor Borah asserted would mean the ultimate destruction of the British empire"
 So long as the people are crowding to the cities and those congested cen ters are becoming more deplorable day by day. 1t is the duty of the American government not only through this leg courage the people to enter the agri- cultural field. 1 am in favor of pay- ing a bounty, if necessary, to encour- age the agricultural industry"
 Open the Farmers Eyes.
 Senator Williams declared that he did not want to see the American gov- ernment rob the poor in order to en- rich the landlords, and he believed and hoped that the result of1free list ing farm products would lower the price of bread and meat and open the farmers eyes to the fact that the re- publican party had been fooling them about the virtues of protection for years-

 To Expedite Passage of Bill.
 Action on the amendment was de- ferred owing to prolonged tdebate, fact which again aroused democratic leaders to a realization of the neceS- sity for some action to speed up con- sideration of the measure, if possible. To this end democratic caucus has been called for tomorrow, when plans for expediting the bill will be dis cussed and a proposal will be made for an agreement that a recess of congress be taken until Nov. 1 after the passage of the tariff bill in the senate and the currency bill in the house. This. some democrats assert, would induce republicans to cut short discussion of the tariff and would also overcome all democratic opposition to currency leg islation at the special session.
 Like Canadian Reciprocity.
 Debate on the free listing of wheat came to a climax late in the day when Senator Borab of Idaho, referring to the countervailing Nduty which the democrats have proposed, asserted 1t was the same as Canadian reciprocity passed by the republicans to the be- trayal of the farmers of the country.
