we'll show the utter rcprehensibility. un-

mitigated cussedness of some one.
So far as can be learned tho Public
Service Commission a long tim e de-
cided TO do something for Brooklyn and
finally hit upon car tenders as the

given that II anybody would Invent a

FEAR TO OPERATE

night. II an operation b performed II
will be when the infant has 0ined

would leave his baby entirely in the care
Of the surgeons.
for the Roberts family. Mr.. Roberts,
hollow eyed and haggard from lack Of
sleep and worry. watched most of the
day at the bedside of his wife. who Ia
very ill-oo sick to be told anything
but that the baby Is at the hospital for
Il slight operation. The two healthy
children. Q and IL years old. sat silent
In another room, not playing because
their mother had to be quiet.
At the hospital yesterday afternoon q
consultation wus held by DIR. Robert
Able. DR.. William A. Dowres. DR.. Reuel
b. Kimball and Or. L. Emmett Holt.
The four DOCTORS decided tfat an opera
ton at present would probably result In
the death Of the baby. The following
statement was given out:
IN view Of the unauthorized opinions
which have appeared in the public press
regarding q newly horn infant named
Roberts now . patient in the Babies
Hospital. a simple statement seems
called for.
'"rhe infant ,s suffering from a not
| column n spinal cord technically
known a. spins binda. with complete
paralysis Of the lower half Of the body.
In only the milder grades Of this deform-
! ity 10 The condition amenable to surgical
, treatment. and such treatment IL regu-
larry given. In the more severe grades
Of malformation such as here exists
and In the child's present condition II Is
our unanimous opinion that no operation
Is 1ustiiable. 1t would probably shorten
the child's life"
The statement Is signed by all four Of
the doctors. the first " being eminent
surgeons n the latter two being
equally distinguished physicians.
Mr.. Roberts left the bedside of his
wife for n short visit to the hospital In
the afternoon. He found that the con-
dition Of the little sufferer was much the
same as on the day before. The little
girl is perfectly formed above the waist,
but the spine is closed over the spinal
cord only down to the lumbar vertibre,
leaving the rest Of tho cord nearly ex-
posed n causing complete paralysis
below the waist. The legs are deformed
