APPREHENSION OVER
WOMAN'S CONDITION
Mrs. Will Parrish Struck By
Car May Be Seriously
Injured.

Apprehension over the condition of
Mrs. Will Parrish, 221 North Twentieth
street, injured yesterday when she
stepped in the path. of the belt car with
her four-year-old grandson, Harold
Sweet, has been expressed by attend
ing physicians, who say there is a
possibility of fracture at the base of
! the brain. Young Sweet is also under
care of physicians, although he shows
little outward effects from the acct
dent.
Mrs. Parrish has been resting easily
and rallied slightly today.
The injuries to the boy were also
about the head.
Other injuries on the bodies of the
victims will not prove serious, it is be-
lieved. Both were badly bruised other
than their bodies.

understanding of the patient that it Is
for services actually rendered. 1t is a
species of bribery for a consultant to
offer a division of a fee 10 a physician
who refers a case to him. 1t is akin
to blackmail for a physician to de-
mand a division of fees with the sug-
gestion made that he will refer cases
elsewhere if the surgeon refuses.
Il am glad to say that the practice
Is not SO prevalent as it was two or
three years ago. Free discussion in
medical journals and associations has
had its effects. Open publicity is the
best remedy 4 patient should de-
mand itemized bill if suspicious and
we doctors should endeavor to have
a state law passed"

DIR. J. II. Oliver scored the practice
in vigorous terms.
Fee splitting is great evil. 1t

of surgeons and physicians and en-.
ables the incompetent to secure bust.
ness at expense of the unsuspecting
patient. An incompetent man here
has done a big business; he is abso-

an unusually large number of cases

profession. We must pass a state
law to prohibit it. And l believe il
would be a good thing if the laymer
were to take it up and soak a guilty

Fee splitting is a first cousin tc
manslaughter," exclaimed DR.. Chas
Emerson; the hapless patient is sac
rificed to the doctors pecuniary in
terests. The practice, l believe, is
widespread throughout the state. The
public should know about it and pub
Lefty should be kept up until it does.
Dr. Edw. Clarke denounced the prac

for it in any form. There is much
of it going on but l believe relief is
in sight. Publicity and a state law

LEvEE WILL GET ATTENTION
Government Sends Notice That Land
at Portage Is Wanted for
improvements.

Portage and millown
ers residing on the government canal
which connects the Fox and Wiscon-
sin rivers at this place have received
notice to the effect that the gov
eminent is DESTROYS of securing the
title of a twenty foot strip of land
on each side of the canal to make
possible an improvement which has
been long anticipated. The govern
ment intends to redock the canal and
place it in navigable condition. The
rebuilding of this docking will mean
much to the commercial interests of
the Fox river valley. A representa-
tive of the war department has been
in Portage for several weeks secur-
ing data pertaining to the proposed
improvement, which it is expected
will take place next season. Another
Improvement which is expected is the
finishing of the rebuilding of the
levees in the vicinity Of Portage. The
state commission has completed q
portion of the work, but it is un-
finished and bill will be presented
in the state legisl ture by Assembly
man Johnson of this district for an
appropriation of $4,000 to finish the
work and to protect that which has
been built up to this time.

"FIREBUG" BARES ARSON
TRUST IN CONFESSION
Eeniamin Fink Makes Startling Dis
closures Involving Sixty
Others.

Chicago, March 12.-Almost incred-
bile revelations of the inside workings
Of the so-called arson trust are said
to have been brought out by the con-
fession of Benjamin Fink, an alleged
travelling firebug." Fink on Monday
unbosomed himself to First Assist
ant States Attorney Frank Johnston
at South Bend, Ind, where he is I'M
der arrest, having been convicted of
arson. The confession is said to have
implicated a number of well-known
public fire insurance adjusters, and
Fink's admissions are regarded as the
most important link In the investiga-
ton of the larson trust" which has
become nationwide.
Fink laid bare the procedure Of the
trust with wealth of amazing detail.
He told how fires had been started,
gave names of the property owners.
those who paid for the blazes, and
named insurance adjusters who were
parties to the wholesale burning and
swindling.
The confession is being guarded
with the utmost secrecy. 1t leaked
out, however, that Fink Implicated
himself and others in dozen fires in
Indiana alone. Later he told Of setting
blazes in Minnesota, Indiana and Illi-
nois. Fink's task, according to his
confession, was that of travelling FIRE
bug" He was the man who did the
actual work Of setting fire to places
marked by the trust" He told how
cheap furniture would be bought, an
office fixed up and insurance taken
out. Then he would arrive with his
torch and the trust" make its collec-
ton at the expense of the insurance
| companies. Fink admitted the actual
existence of an arson trust"

Court RULES FOR

oRDER. GIVEN RAILROADS To-
MAKE MORE STOPS.
C. B.. & O.. APPEAL is DENIED,
AS Public Carrier 1t Is Ruled Their
Primary Duty Is to Give Locai Ser
vce-Must, Stop Two or -FOUR
Trains Daily.

Madison-Ihe supreme court mas
confirmed the decision of the Dane
county circuit court and declared
constitutional the Wisconsin law of
1911 making il compulsory upon a
railroad running four trains each
way daily past a given station, to
stop two trains daily, each way, at
that station.
The Chicago, Burlington G. Quincy
railroad had appealed the case from
the Dane county court, making the
railroad commission defendant. The
railroad commission ordered the road
to stop an additional train at Column
bus, Buffalo county. The order was
sustained in the lower court.
The Burlington's attorneys insist
ed that the company could not stop
its through limited trains at small
stations without destroying their eff
ficiency and losing much business and;
revenue. and that such stoppage at
thirteen additional stations would be
an unwarranted interference with in
terstate commerce
The railroad commission contend
ed that the law may be fully conn
piled with by running intra-state
trains, and that even if construed to-
require the stopping of interstate
trains the statute is valid because
the furnishing of adequate local serv-
ice is 1.-THE primary duty Of car

London, March 12.-Fears lest the
militant suffragettes might annoy King
George and Queen Mary and create
disturbance made the royal opening or
parliament and the procession thereto
from the palace on Monday an occa-
sion charged with nervousness. Nor
were such anticipations groundless.
While the king and queen were on
their way to Westminster five WON
en- attempted to approach his males
ty in historic Whitehall. They car
ried petitions setting forth the griev-
ances Of women. The police prompt
ly arrested the FIVE and imprisoned
them, although 1t seemed for time
as If the crowd would overwheim
the police and administer punish
ment in summary fashion.
Militant suffragettes also started
another campaign Of arson. They
set fire to the Saunderton station of
the Great Western railway and
burned it to the ground. Saunderton
Is about thirty-seven miles from Lon
don. Two placards were found in
the vicinity, on which were painted
the words: Burning to get the
vote" and ''votes for women"
Another station, Croxley Green,
about three miles from London. on
the London & Northwestern, also
was burned, but the cause of the fire
has not been ascertained. Both
Saunderton and Croxley Green were
new stations.
Suffragettes burned the wooden
pavilion of the Bowling club at
Heaton Park, Newcastle. They left
a card inscribed: mo peace until
votes for women"
In connection with the opening Of
the new session of the British parlia-
ment by King George elaborate pre-
cautions were taken to prevent in
reference by militant suffragettes or
their male supporters.

Plan Canal to Gulf.

The Wisconsin legislature will be

Superior and the Gulf of Mexico for
steamboat traffic. More particularly
it proposes to canalize the waterways
from Lake Superior to the Mississip-

it navigable for boats of heavy draft.
Assemb1yman Chinook estimates
that the realization Of the plan will.
by reducing cost of power for man-

the greatest industrial states in the
union, as well as providing rev.
enue to the federal government for
power sold amounting to $780,
