CHICAGO, Nov. 20.-Dr. III. n.
Haiselden was morally and et5tr
cally justified" in refusing 1
perform an operation to save the
life of the defective BollfngeF
baby when his conscience t1sn
him the child should not be .coItt
demned to a life of unhappiEesS
This was the verdict yesterday
of six prominent physicians WHO
composed the coroner's jury. g
They recommended, however.
that in similar cases in the future
a consultation of physicians
should be held to decide. Whether
an effort should be made to save
the life. - -
I'VE believe the physicians
highest duty is to prevent suffer-
ing and to save or prolong life"
they said.
DR.. Haiselden testified he did
not reach his decision until after
he had consulted Is practiciag
physicians, IA of whom approved
letting the child die.

hateful thing called military
glory looked to Robert Minor like
the high spot of his assignment.
The Times herewith prints the
first Of Minors pictures from TIE

with war PHOTOGRAPHS. Now
comes the brilliant cartoonist,
quick to catch an impression,
sketching with dextrous pencil
the human things along the hills
and in the fields where men fight
and suffer and die for-what?
Minors slashing art has long
been among the most notable in
America. He has been called a
rebel in crayon"-because, in
stead of drawing pretty pictlres,
he has insisted on drawing VI
tai GRAPHIC MEANINGFUL
pictures - PICTURES WITH A

He has ripped the cloak of re-
spectability from hypocritical
shams, and exposed the meanness
and pettiness of Industrial tyran-

Now he's On the job for

Taft today took a crack" at his
ancient enemies, the democrats.
He said that after returning
from his trip to the west, he had

are profiting from war prosperity
are not satisfied with the demo-
cratic program and achievements.
He laughed heartily in denying
he was a presidential candidate.

PARIS, Nov. 2O.--Monas-
tir, in southern Serbia, has
fallen, according to reliable
reports today.
With the city evacuated
and crushed II is believed
resistance of the Serbs in the
south against the Bulgars Is
ended.
No official announcement OF
the city's fall has been made, bat
reports of the Bulgar victory are
from unquestioned- sources.
The Bulgars are not expected
to press their advance much far

1t is less than 10 miles from

Northwest of Monastir the
French and Bulgarians are re-

ROSS BOYS IS
0. K. THEY SAY

There is no evidence that tie
Ross boys, Frank and Earl G.,
have in any manner been cruelty
or inhumanly treated at the
hands of any one since they we're
committed to the Pacific county
jail following the North liver
trouble.
This is the finding, made pub
lie today, of the committee which
recently visited the North River
country to conduct an investiga-
ton in response to an appeal o.
Mrs. Ross to the Tacoma w0r1i-
ems clubs. ~ g
The committee is composed Of
Abbie e. Danforth, representative
of the Tacoma Monday Civic club:
Mrs. T. J.. Hamilton, Sunshine
and Civic club; Mrs. Kate L.
Young, representative of Gov.
Lister, and G. e. Muckler, mem
Der of the state humane bureau.
Boys Were Wronged.
There is no doubt that Mrs.
Ross and her sons we're griev-
ously wronged at the hands of
the alleged night riders" the re-
port says. mo one whom we
have interviewed denies this fact.
The question of who is guilty of
this wrong is for the courts, rath-
er than us; to say.
1t Is not within our province
to act either as Judge, jury or
prosecutor"
The Pacific county jail Is Ge-
scribed as a palace when compar-
ed with other county jails of the
state.
The investigators say the Roys
boys told them they had not been
treatod cruelty or inhumanely,
though the jailor and sheriff
wero unfrlendly.

BODY
IN 4 TRUNK

PORTLAND. Ore, Nov. 90
The dead body of a man ii an
old trunk picked up last night
in the Willamette river at the
foot of Flanders street developed
mystery which the police are
trying to solve today.
The identity of the man has
not been determined. A deep
cash was discovered in his head
and bruises, apparently caused by
rope, were found about his
neck.
The only ciew the officers have
consists of buggy tracks along
the river bank leading to Tho
scene.
A woman's handkerchief and
collar were found IN the pockets
OF the clothing.
