tors's death was diagnosed as blood
clct in tie heart. Throughout the
morning ne had been in good spirits
and it was announced to his colleagues
that he was feeling better than for
several days. Physicians had deter
mined that an operation which had
been contemplated was unnecessary.
Despite his - years, it appeared that
the affliction which he suffered was OF
recent origin and specialists believed
it would yield to treatment. This con-
cIusion relieved considerably the anX-
:ety Of his friends and associates in

Death Comes Suddenly.

Half an hour before MS death the
senator talked with his daughter Mrs.
Nv. B. Sparkes of Georgia. She had
lust left the room when he raised him
self in bed. AS Mrs. Sparkes reen-
tered the room her father fell back
in collapse and never regained con-
sciousness.
In the absence of Senator Hoke
Smith of Georgia Senator Overman
was notified and proceedings in the
senate were abruptly halted when the
North Carolina senator announced the
death A brief resolution Of respect
was adopted
For several minutes the senator's,
shocked at the sudden tidings, re-
mained in the chamber, discussing
what should be done, but later ar
rangements were made for public
funeral in the senate chamber next
Tuesday afternoon at z O'CLOCK to be
attended by the senate and house of
representatives, the president OF the
United States and his cabinet, justices
of the supreme court, members of the
diplomatic corps, the admiral of the
navy and chief office staff Of the army.
Tie scene Oh tne floor Of the senate
! was an unusual one Not only had
the death of their colleague shocked
the senators, but the effect of his loss
at a time when important foreign re-
lation measures were pending at once
impressed itself upon the minds Of

ATTEMPT TO KILL
NAVY LIEUTENANT
American Officer Fired On at Vera
Cruz.-Very Slightly
Hurt.

Vera Cruz, Feb. 12-An attempt
was made last hight to assassinate
Lieut.. Arthur B. Cook, flag lieuten-
ant to Rear Admiral Mayo Of the
United States battleship Connecticut.
Lieut. Cook was struck by Sullet
and slightly wounded. His assailant
was not seen.
The lieutenant, accompanied by his
wife and Miss Ethel Mckenzie of
Philadelphia, had been dining with
Admiral Mayo aboard the flagship.
Returning to the landing place, the
party took an open carriage to drive
to tie steamer Moro Castle, on which
Mrs. Cook and Miss Mckenzie were
to sail today. The two women occu-
pied the rear seat. Lieut.. Cock, con-
spicuous in full dress white uniform
sat facing them AS the party was
proceeding down Avenide Ia Inde-
pendencia sharp but not loud de-
tonation was heard, and Lieut.. Cook
felt shock on the left hip, which
at the time he did not associate with
what happened to be shot.
On alighting at the wharf Lieut.
Cook found a small object on the
carriage seat, which proved to be a
bullet of the type used in pocket au-
tomato pistols. Investigation showed
the bullet had inflicted a bruise on
his hip.
Both Mrs. Cook and Miss McKen-
ME were greatly agitated by the dis
cove-y OF the bullet Having seen
them to their staterooms, Lieut. Cook
returned aboard the flagship and re-
ported the attack to the admiral, who
this morning communicated with
John Lind and the American consul,
W. w. Canada. They notified Gen.
Mas, military commandant at Vera
Cruz, without, however, making any
formal demand.
Mr.. Lind later will inform Gen.
Mas that the arrest of persons as
saulting American officers or civil
ians is of small consequence compared
with the PERSONAL responsibility of
the general for such outrages.
1t is believed the attack was not
deliberate plot, but the sudden act of
some desperate.
Recently quiet arrangements were
made to secure the personal safety Of
Mr.. Lind Until a, few days ago he
took lcng walks alone in the outly-
ing country. At the consulate no
guard was maintained, but signal
boys were brought from the feet to
act as messengers. In consequence
of secret information reaching the
consulate, the signal boys were re-
placed by eight stalwart picked blue
Jackets, four of whom are on duty
day and night.
Mr.. Lind, whenever ne leaves the
consulate now, is followed by a big
bluejacket, who, although unarmed,
is within immediate striking distance.
Mr.. Lind was opposed to these pre-
cautionary measures, but finally was
persuaded that conditions demanded
them.

CapabIe and Efficient.

''She is most capable and efficient .
he said, "far above the average hospi-
tai physician" DR.. Thompson thought
a lady physician was an absolute ne
cessity in the hospital, and that Dr..
Saunders had committed no dereliction
of duty, though ne was Of the opinion
that her temperament rendered her ap-
parently oficious. 1t was for the rea-
son, he said, which caused the discour-
tesy shown him and others by Dr.
Saunders that he had recommended
rer removal by the board Of regents.
He was also of the opinion that an
other source Of the trouble was the
alleged fact that DR.. Babcock was dis
posed to favor some Of his subordi-
mates more than others.
When questioned by the committee,
DR.. Thompson gave some very inter
esting sidelights on the present man
agement of the institution and sug-
gestions as to changes that should be
made in the system on which it is op-
Grated. He, Dr.. Saunders and DR.. Bah
cock are the only resident physicians
of the asylum and are on duty prac-
tically at all times, being subject to
call Of patients. The other members
of the medical staff pay daily visits of
perhaps one or two hours duration,
in which time the interests of several
hundred patients are to be looked at
Ter. Call members Of the medical
staff said DIR. Thompson, should be
resident physicians. He thought that
such an arrangement would result in
much more efficient treatment of the
patients than is at present given.
No Rule to Keep Ont.
Questions by Senator Young brought
out the fact that there is no rule that
a physician who has failed of re-elec-
ton to the medical staff shall not re-
enter the grounds of the asylum in
connection with the charges that DR..
Cooper frequently returned. Dr.
Thompson said ne thought Dr. Cooper
had an absolute right as a citizen Of
the State to be admitted
Senator Strait in his questions de-
veloped the fact that the mortality
rate among the inmates is very high.
The senator asked if the superinten-
dent did not have extensive duties on
his hands with the 100 patients in
the asylum and the development work
at State Park, to which the witness
replied in the affirmative and that he
thought this might have accounted
for the assertion that DR.. Babcock had
not given close attention to certain
departments, which was made on yes
terday by DR.. Griffin. with tae State
Park work On his hands, said DR..
Thompson, che is obliged to be alb
sent much of the time"
Never Refused to Help.
Questioned by Dr. Saunders, Dr.
Thompson admitted that her week with

Had Never Meddled.

In that connection DR.. Thompson
wished it distinctly understood mat so
far as the work of his department vas
concerned DR.. Saunders had never
meddled, nor had he heard of her med
ding, with any other department than
her own. She had treated him, he
said, with discourtesy in few in
stances, though there had never been
an open breach between them.
Questioned both by Goveronr Blease
and DR.. Babcock as to the propriety Of
a lady physicians making the Wesser-
man tests, Dr.. Thompson stated that
he thought any lady who had con-
nected herself with the asylum ought
to hold herself in readiness to per
form whatever service she might rem

Trip to study pelagra.
w. F. Caldwell in News and Courier.
Columbia, Feb, 14.-Dr. J. l.. Thomp-
son, first assistant to the superinten-
dent of the State Hospital for the In
sane, and for 80 years connected with
the institution, occupied the witness
stand throughout most of the day S
session of the asylum investigating
committee. DR.. R. T. Carothers chair
man of the board Of regents, was re-
called to the stand for few minutes.
Both witnesses were examined eXten-
sively by DR.. Babcock, DR.. Saunders,
DR.. Cooper and members Of the con-
nittee. The next meeting will be held
Tuesday afternooa at $3.50 o'clock.
DR.. Thompson, who had previously
stated that ne considered DR.. Flea
nora Saunders's activities the source
of discord which he stated was appar-
ent at the asylum, today was asked
by the committee to give specific in
stances where DR.. Saunders had ex-
ceeded her authority, and number
of these were related. Dr.. Thompson
stated that he thought much i'll feeling
had been caused by the legislative
investigation of 1909. There were nc
rules, he said, governing the conduct
of any physician so far as another
department Of the work was con-
corned, but he thought that it was gen
orally conceded that each head of a
department should have completa
charge Of it.
