New Haven Financial
Affairs Is Started
MAYO TALKS
..... ........ ON CANCER

New York, April 10.-A statement
valance. of cancer, perhaps, is trace
able to present methods Of cooking,
was to the laymen one of the salient
opinions in a maze of technical deci-
sions at the opening of the American
Surgical associations annual conven-
ton yesterday. DR.. Mayo is a delegate
from Rochester, Mimi. and president
of the association. He explained that
cancer of the stomach formed third
of all cancer cases among civilized
people. ....,.....
as there some fundamental fault
in the food or in the cooking of civili-
zed men that gives such preponder-
ance to pro-cancerous conditions in
the gastric region?" he asked. "Among
stomach does not form nearly such a
large proportion Of the total number OF
cases." .-g. ~.. ,.~a
DR. Mayo said that the amount of
meat consumed undoubtedly had
something to do with the prevalence
of cancer. He explained, than other
kinds of cancer, among them the
peculiar form which attacks the
mouths of the natives Of India,
brought on by an irritation due to
chewing .betelnuts. Cancer Of the
groin, according to DR.. Mayo, is con-
fined almost entirely to , chimney
sweeps and sailors.
During a discussion about the ad-
visa bility Of operating for appended
It's, DR.. James F. Moore of Minneapo-
lis said that he felt that the removal
of the appendix was "an interference
with the designs of the Lord.
DIR. A. Gerster, New York surgeon
replied that If this were true, all surg
cry would have to be regarded as an
interference with providence.
The discussion followed a paper or

ton Of our patient continued DR.

ary to the International Congress Of

COUNTY CONS.
PAY Big SUN
SETTLEMENT OF ACCOUNT BE-
TWEEN cAss COUNTY AND THE
STATE INSANE HOSPITAL MADE
FOLLOWING SATISFACTORY AD-
JusTMENT OF BILL, ...

The county commissioners drew a
warrant yesterday in the sum of $22.-
1886. made out in favor Of the state
treasurer. in full settlement OF Cass
county's Indebtedness to the state for
the care OF the county's insane pa
tientS.
For the past three years Auditor
Leech has been working with the state
auditors office in an endeavor to def
initely settle the question as to where
the responsibility rested for the care
Of six patients whose care has peen
charged to Cass county for many
years.
Within the last week the state audi
tor notified Auditor Leech that he had
given Cass county credit for the fsiX
patients, and the county commission
ers Immediately instructed the audi
tor to draw a warrant covering the
entire remaining Indebtedness. The
result of this investigation means a
saving to Cass county of almost $4,000
For a number of years past the six
patients referred to have been charged
on the quarterly bills against Cass
county, the county refusing to pay
them on the ground that the patients
were not from this county, two Of
them having been sent from Morton
county. and the rest being transients
the cost of whose care falls On the
state. It Is a matter Of congratulatior
to the county officers that the matter
has been settled thus satisfactorily.
