EXCHANGE WAR PRISONERS. Germany and Russia to Continue Plan
 in Operation,

Correspondence of the Associated Press)
 Stockholm, Sweden, Nov. 10.-Pre- parations have been completed for the resumption of the exchange of wounded prisoners between Russia and Germany. The transfer will be carried on as before without any medication of the original plan, but several innovations have been intro- duced which will make the long jour- ney more comfortable for the wound ed and aditional sanitary precautions have been taken. One of these Is a new disinfectng station at Haparanda where all arrivals will receive steam bath, while their clothes are washed and disinfected. Since it has been found that the locomotives and steam heater can only supply enough heat for two cars, the trains, during the cold weather will be cut down to that length. Large numbers Of blankets have been provided, and tho wounded will have no difficulty in keeping warm in their excursion northward which carries them almost into the arctic circle.
 The exchange will continue through November, but it will be briefly in- corrupted in December, when all the Swedish trains will be needed to take care of the Christmas traffic, which in Sweden is always extraor- dinarily heavy. The sanitary ar ransements have been found to be perfectly satisfactory. The doctors in charge state that no infection of @ serious character has occurred, and only one nurse has been taken i'll.

Dr. Ludwig Hektoen of Chicago, professor of pathology in Rush Medi- cal college and the University of Chicago, is the foreman of the cor oner's jury chosen to decide whether Dr. H. J. Haiselden acted properly in letting the deformed Bollinger baby die instead of saving it's life by an operation. The other five members selected by Coroner Hoffman are: Dr. D. A. K Steele, dean of the Physicians and Surgeons college of the University of Illinois; Dr. John F. Golden, associate of pr. John B. Murphy of Mercy hospital; Dr. Arthur Rankin, professor of anatomy of Loyola university; Dr. Howard Chis- lett, dean of the Hahnemann college, and pr. Henry F. Lewis of the Cook County hospital staff. The case of the
New Britain herald., 1915-11-20

Bollinger baby has attracted national attention. The mother of the six day old infant gave her consent to Dr. Haiselden's action. The autopsy on the child's body showed that the baby was paralyzed on the left side from head to foot. On the right side the outer ear was formed, but lacked the drum, and the child would have been deaf because there was no ear on the left side. On the right side there was no neck, the skin growing from the cheek to the shoulder blade Curva- ture of the spine and hemorrhage of the spinal canal also were found. The latter, according to physicians, would have caused complete paralysis of the child's body and would have re- suited in death had there been no other causes.

 What can be truthfulIy said against such men as John M Donnelly, Will liam l.. zepp, John w. Grant, George M. Coughlin and all the other men who make up the Democratic ticket :? Of course such men can be abused and presume they will be; but no truth ful criticism can be heralded in their direction.
 Tn conclusion, my friends. I will simply say that the Democratic ticket is out to win this election and will do all in my power to accomplish that end. Our candidates stand square1y on their records as public servants and upon the platform af the Demo- cratic pqarty. The facts are plain and we leave the verdict in your hands with confidence.
