Operating in public and in the open
air, a surgeon amputated mans arm
in Cincinnati. The man was n machin-
list, and had been caught in a concrete
mixer, and was only released after an
hours work by the fire department.
An ambulance was summoned, and the
doctor decided the only hope Of saving
the mans life, because Of loss Of
blood, was to operate at once. Then,
surrounded by a ring of policemen,
holding back the hundreds who gath
cred round, the surgeon commenced
work. The operation took only n few
minutes, and the man was fully con-
sclous.

edging along the bar close to Rotha-

his fist until the officer told OF having
paid money to a woman in Harris place.
That's lie!" shouted Hart.
At the same time he hurled his cap,
which struck Rothamel under the left
eve. Before Rothsmel could recover,
Hart had vaulted the rail separating
him from the witness and landed his
right fist on Rothamels nose.
The court was in an uproar. ASSIST

played right guard on Cornell's football
team not long ago, reached over the
rail and grabbed Hart by the neck be-

punch the bewildered detective.
Then Mr.. Colnon pulled Hart back
over the rail, and with one hand on
the prisoners throat bore him 10 the
floor. Captain Rickert, of the court

Kaiser Not Yet Expelled
Marblehead Yacht Club Waits
Until War Is Declared

BOSTON, March 9-The Eastern Yacht
Club, of Marblehead, has had stormy
session over the question of expelling
Emperor William, who is an honorary
member One member declared that the
Kaiser had been guilty of conduct inm-
icsl to the best interests of the United
States and should be expelled without
delay. Most of the members are ar
IDENTIFY pro-Ally, but even some Of these
felt that international questions should
not cause the club TO withdraw the
honor paid the Kaiser in return for
Germany's hospitality to members Of
the Eastern Yacht Club when three
American sender boats raced at KEEL IN
1907 for the Emperor William Cup.
The American yachtsmen were then
the guests Of Prince Henry at Potsdam
and were presented to the Kaiser. The
discussion grew warm. not so much
over the German methods Of warfare as
over the need of showing loyalty to the
United States or the belief in the
merits of the Allies cause by expelling
the Kaiser.
Finally the discussion was ended
when it was recalled that bylaw pro-
vides that if charges be made against a
member a hearing must be given him.
But it is understood that war between
the United States and Germany would
automatically terminate the kaiser's
membership.
Theodore Roosevelt, King Alfonso
and William II. Taft are also honorary
members of the club.

Justices McReynolds and
Brandeis Withdraw as
Argument Begins
Holding Co. Attacked
Corporations Attorney Denies
"Monopolistic Power" and
Price Fixing

Washington, March 9.-The Supreme
Court to-day began consideration of the
Federal dissolution suit against the
United States Steel Corporation, its
subsidiaries and officers. Argument will
continue until next Wednesday.
Only seven of the nine justices are
sitting in the case. Justice Brandeis
and McReynolds retired voluntarily in
accordance with the court custom. The
former, it is understood, did so because
of public expressions made before his
appointment regarding the so-called
Steel Trust. Justice McReynolds, while
Attorney General. participated in the
Federal prosecution, which was begun
in 1911.
A Colossal Supercombination'
In opening the governments case, As
sistant Attorney General Todd pictured
the corporation as a Colossal super
combination" Of competing units, pro-
ducing approximately one-half Of tho
nations iron and steel output, and con-
trolling assets OF more than $1,000 0o,-
900. He declared Il was a grossly
overcapitalized" combination OF COM
binations, with the subsidiaries them
selves previously overcapitalized. Pro-
motors, he said, had received senior
nous profits, and prices had violently
risen" after the corporation was formed
sixteen years ago.
Outlining the defence, Richard V.
Lindabury contended that the Sherman
law does not prohibit combinations
merely for size and power alone. Pro-
portionate reduction by the corpora
tion, he said, has decreased to 1919 pei
cent since il was organized, while com
petition and competitors proportion Of
output have increased. He insisted
that the corporation is not a monopoly
and has no power to dominate the in.
dustry.
Mr.. Todd declared that the combine
tion il still overwhelmingly prepon
derant" and that the price fixing hold
ing company was not normal develop
ment.
One of the purposes was to exploit
the public" he added. "The holding
company IS as illegal as the old form
of trust"
Mr.. Lindabury insisted that in dis
missing the governments suit the New
Jersey Federal District Court of four
judges had found that the combination
is not an actual or attempted monopoly
Denies Monopolistic Power
at has not exercised monopolistic
powers" he said, "and never attempted

The Gary dinners, the defendants
counsel explained, were begun by Pres
ident Gary during the stress of the 1907
panic ito prevent its spread over tho

court had found the price maintenance
invoked at these dinners was continued
too long, but had been discontinued.

Gus competitions" he added, lin the
