SURGEONS OPERATE
IN HOSPITAL AFIRE
Shouts, Smoke, Panic Bring No
Interruption to LifeSaving.

Four patients were on the operating
tables in the Long Island College Hos
pital yesterday afternoon while ply
sicians, internes and nurses were noise
lessly accomplishing maximum of
work with scalpels and lancets in a
minimum of time.
Just then a puff of smoke passed over
the transom Of the main door of the
room. There was a scurrying of feet
outside, and a few minutes later the
Changing of bells and shouts of men
told Of the arrival of fire fighters.
II wasn't long before everybody in the
room but the patients knew that the
hospital was afre. Also, everybody
but the patients knew that a delay in
the operations might mean the loss of
one or possibly four lives.
So, without word of consultation,
the physicians. internes and nurses
continued their particular duties, drew
shades, closed doors against outside
sounds and inside panic. When the
flames, which originated in the engine
room, had been extinguished, the pa
tients were returned to their cots with
out a hint of the danger from which
the bravery Of the hospital attendants
Rad saved them.

Broker, as Own Trial Law
yer, Brings Out His Get
Rich-QuiCk' Rules.
OIL STOCKS ADVISED
AS GOOD PURCHASE
Man Accused of Mail Fraud Tells
Prosecutor He Wants Facts
Laid Bare.

Some Of the simple rules by which
DR.. John Grant Lyman promised to
make millionaires out Of all those who
became his clients were revealed in
court yesterday at the trial of the case
in which he is charged with using the
mails to defraud.
Lyman acted as his own attorney and
succeeded in still further keeping court
costs down by using his wife as an
assistant. Seated at a table opposite
Kim. she handed him scores of PEN
cilled notes advising him as to ques-
tons to be put to witnesses and de-
tails Of discrimination
Every time the Standard Oil Com
pany j. investigated its stock goes up
in value" he declared in one Of his
letters TO a client. "Just a little more
investigation and the value of Standard
Oil will be about $4,000 a share"
The advice that followed this state
ment was TO invest in oil stock to the
extent of your resources" But invest
ment did not necessarily mean the pur-
chase of stock, according to the Lyman
plan.
Invest in Oil, His Advice;
In letter TO Mrs. Sarah B. Knowles
he advised that she could purchase
either California or Ohio oil stock by
paving a small sum down and that the
dividends of the first year would be
sufficient TO pay her indebtedness on
the stock and leave her "a handsome
balance" =.
Mr.. Lyman seldom advised his eli
ents TO purchase stock outright, judg-
ing from his letters. They simply were
advised to turn over any sums they
might care to invest and permit Lyman
to invest as he pleased. He told them
that they could "trust him like bank
and leave all their financial affairs IN
his hands.
Several times he surprised Judge
Wolverton, in the Federal Court, and
f. NJ. Stanton, Assistant United States
Attorney, by his intimate knowledge OF
the law governing his case. lie asked
Judge Wolverton to order the stenog-
rapher TO record an exception in the
records Of the case every time he was
overruled.
That's Just 70 save my time and
yours" he said. ~.
"But we can't save time that way"
answered the jurist. you'll have to
ask for an exception every time you
wish one"
This and numerous other rebuffs with
which Lyman's numerous requests were
met during the day failed to ruffie him.
Broker His Own Lawyer.
az you're going to cross-examine all
witnesses like this we're going to
waste an awful lot OF time" protested
the prosecutor at one point after
Lyman had spent considerable time in
questioning a witness.
Enough of my time has been wasted
in the last three months" shot back
Lyman, referring to the time he has
been under arrest. 81 want the facts
to come out here"

pointment been made by a President
which aroused so much entagonisn;
For a long time il was not believed
that the Judiciary Committee would re-
port the nomination favorably, and II
was on this point that President VIII
son won a great victory by forcing
strictly party vote in committee. Every
Democrat signed the favorable report
and every Republican signed the un-
favorable one.
The minority report, made public to-
night. contains some vigorous language.
"Never before in the history of the
country" it declares, has man been
appointed a Justice Of the Supreme
Court Of the United States whose hon
csty and integrity were seriously
brought in question. 1t must be evi,,
dent to any thinking and unbiased
mind that this appointment has re-
suited from something other than the
qualifications and fitness OF the ap-
pointee for the office"
The new Justice was born sixty years
ago in Louisville, was graduated from
Harvard University in 1877 and began
the practice of, law in Boston after ad-
mission to the. Bar in 1873.
1--WE regard it as a great misfortune
and distinct lowering OF the standard
heretofore maintained in making ap-
pointments to this high Office that, one
should be selected for the place whose
reputation for honesty and integrity
among his associates at the bar mas
been proved to be bad, which reputation
has been justified by his own course OF
conduct. We cannot consclentiously
give our consent TO the confirmation Oh
such an appointment"
The majority report held that the Pc
titions and letters in support OF MI
Brandeis, and particularly from Boston,
far outweighed the opposition. =,
at is easy to make charges it SAID,
land there is too much proof in this
case of a preconcerted effort to weak
en- the power of Mr.. Brandeis before
the public TO think of permitting IN
situations and inuendoes to take the
place of reasonable proof. We should
be certain to have an honest, capable
man upon the bench, but unless one Do
appointed who has not had the caparlty
and the courage to take part in the DIS
