PRESIDENT IN
GOOD HEALTH,
SAYS DOCTOR
In Better Shape, in Many
Ways, Than Before Ill
ness Came.
ARM AND LEG IMPROVE

dent Wilson is deeply incensed over
the publishing of the diagnosis OF
his case, 1t was learned from his in
tImate friends today. He feels that
the publishing of the diagnosis is
bound to leave a doubt in the minds
Of the public as to his future capa'
bliltles, which is entirely unfounded
He fears Or. Young's action may
arouse new rumors which are base
less.
BALTIMORE, Feb. 11.-President VII
son in many ways is in better shape than
before his Illness. His mental vigor IS
Simply prodigious," Dr. Hugh H. Young
oe Johns Hopkins university, one Of the
presidents consulting physicians, de-
clared In a copyrighted interview pub
lished in the Baltimore Sun today.
eff you think 1t would quiet uneasi-
ness. which Is without foundation, and
allay alarm, which is without justihca
ton. I shall gladly lay all the facts as
to the distinguished patients condition
before the public" DR.. Young said IN an
interview
From the very beginning the medical
men associated with the case have never
had anything to conceal When l hrst
saw the president in October crisis
had arisen of such gravity owing TO the
Development of prostate obstruction that
an emergency operation to relieve this
situation was contemplated, but by 4
fortltious and wholly unexpected change
IN the presidents condition the obstruc-
tioo began to disappear
"The Improvement in this respect
which has been steady, Is now complete.
NO SETBACKS
OR BACKWARD STEPS.
"The president was organically sound
when 7 saw him first, and I found him
not only organlcalIy sound when I vis-
tied him last week, but further, all or
gans were functoning In a perfectly nor
NAL. healthy manner.
'Pari passu, the presidents general
condition and specifically the slight inn
pairment of the left arm and leg have
improved more slowly, Il is true, but
surely. steadily. There have been no set
backs. no backward steps and rumors to
this effect are rubbish
"As you know, I'm October last we
diagnosed the presidents illness a s cere-
bral thrombosis, which affected his left
arm and leg, but at no time was his
brain power, or the extreme vigor and
lucidity of his mental processes in the
slightest degree ahated. His condition
has from the very first shown n steady,
unwavering tendency toward resolution
and complete absorption The increasing
utility Of the left arm and leg, greatly
impaired at first, have closely followed

WASHINGTON, Feb. n.-Government
forces were being modified today to pre-
vent a nationwide strike on the rail-
roads.
Director General Hines was to give his
answer to the ultmatum of the railroad
workers, presented yesterday, demanding
increased wages.
The director general also was to meet
with a committee Of ten Of the brother
hood Of maintenance Of way employees to
discuss the strike of that organization
which has been set for Feb. II.
Attorney General Palmer was prepar-
ing to act under the Lever law to prevent
strikes by injunction If necessary.
Back Of all OF the preparations was
President Wilson, considered the court of
last resort. In many quarters it was
expected that the president would issue
an appeal to the railroad workers to re-
main at their posts and thereby make It
unnecessary for the government to take
drastic steps to keep the railroads in
operation.
President Wilson will not act until
after Director General Hines has closed
the conferences with the railroad men. IT.
was stated at the whitehouse today Di-
rector General Hines will render a report
to the president when he has made his
uHdA answer 10 Lne employees and the
president will then take any action nee
essary. The president has given Director
Hines no instructions. it was said.
PRESIDENT MAY
URGE COMMISSION.
1t was considered quite probable that
the president would direct Director Cen
eral Hines to establish q commission,
similar to that set up in the bituminous
coal strike to determine whether wage
increases are justifable.
The railroad workers feel they viii
secure no wage increase from Director
General Hines, but are not prepared TO
hold the threat Of a nation wide strike
over his head. However, they do state
that If wage demands are rejected there
will be numerous unauthorized strikes
which may easily develop into a general
strike
W. G. Lee head Of the Brotherhood Of
Railroad Trainmen, mas stated that he
has given notice Of the termination of the
wage agreement which his brotherhood
holds with the railroad administration,
but has not announced that the organi-
zatiOn would strike

JURY BUSINESSES
 M'CULLOCH CASE

Finding no evidence of the illegal use of city water by R. B. McCulloch at his ice plant, the grand jury, after an investigation today, dismissed the charge against MT. McCulloch, with out vote being cast for an indict- ment.
 Prosecuting Attorney G. o. Bogle told the Log Cabin Democrat this af- ternoon that he was averse to going into the matter, which he understood had been settled satisfactorily both to the city council and Mir. McCul- loch, but that certain individuals had insisted so strongly upon an investiga- tion that he had all the witnesses sug- gested by them summoned The wit nesses were heard by the grand jury this morning.
 Il am of course not at liberty to divulge the proceedings of the grand jury MT. Bogle said, but you may state that the examination of wit nesses developed the fact that there was no proof that Mr. McCulloch had ever used city water in any quantity without paying for it, and the case was dismissed without a vote being taken by the grand jury"
