HAS FINGER REMOVED
Physicians Fear DIR. Satterlee May
Lose His Whole Hand.

New York, Oct 1S.-With rare
stoicism, DR.. Francis Leroy Satterlee,
jr, conversed and gave advice to sur
geons operating upon him at the
Flushing hospital. The stub Of the
middle finger of DIR. Satterlee's right
hand was amputated in effort to
check a disease he contracted in his
scientific researches as an X-ray eX-
pert. Only a local anaesthetic was ap-
piled by the operating surgeons.
Ten minutes after the operation had
been concluded, Dr. Satterlee walked
unassisted to his home, two blocks
away. The dismembered portion of
DR.. Satterlee's finger will be subjected
to a microscopic examination. If signs
of cancer are found, it will be neces-
sary to amputate DR.. Satterlee's hand
at the wrist

American Steel company of Pittsburg
against the American Steel & Wire
company, whose plant is located at
Worcester. The court sustained de-
murrer to the second count, charging
combination in restraint of trade in
such nails.
The petition stated that the wire
company secured control of rs per
cent of the entire output of wire nails
in the United States and then deter
mined to acquire monopoly of the
manufacture and sale of coated wire
nails. The plan, it was charged, was
to create such difficulties of competi-
ton as to drive out of business all
with whom the company was unable
to come to terms

That limit seems to have been reach
ed. The Grand Canyon is acknowl-
edged to be more than a local wonder,
it's flames is worldwide. AS such
the least that Uncle Sam can do is to
give it the same consideration as ma
tional parks already established. 1t
is hard to understand why there
should be any opposition to this pro-
gram. Tho marvel is that the peo-
pie of Arizona do not demand that the
canyon be put where it belongs. The
Santa Fe stands ready to go ahead
and cooperate with the government
whenever tho latter will take an in
terest."

TROOPS CAUSE A SHORTAGE.
Railroads Claim Equipment Taxed to
Accommodate War Department.

One thing which the railroads as
sert is contributing largely to the car
shortage on southwestern lines is the
extraordinary and urgent demand for
equipment by the war department. to
transport foodstuffs and other sup
plies to the more than 10000 troops
who are modified on the Mexican Dor
der. The Southern Pacific alone is
reported to have more than 1000 cars
employed in that service. The rail-
roads leading direct TO border points
are having their rolling stock taxed to
the utmost to meet the transportation
requirements of the troops.
