FEELING FINE HE SAYS

Special Despatch TO THE NEw YORK HERALD.
KANE Pa, Feb. 15.-Dr. Evan O'Nell
Kane, chief surgeon of Kane Summit
Hospital. performed an operation upon
himself for chronic appendicitis this
morning.
Sitting on the operating table
propped up by pillows and with u
nurse holding his head forward that
he might see. he calmly cut his way
into his abdomen. carefully dissecting
the tissues and closing the blood YES
sells as he worked his way in. Locat-
ing the appendix he pulled it up, cut
it of and bent tho stump under.
He applied a local anaesthetic and,
when seen by reporter a few hours
after the operation, declared he was
feeling fine and saw no reason why
he would not recover rapidly.
Or. Kane is 60 years old. He has
been surgeon for thirty-seven years
and has operated nearly 5000 appendi-
citis cases Nor Is he a stranger in the
feld of self-operating. as he amputatcd
one of his fingers two years ago.
The operation to-day was witnessed
by his brother. Or. Tom L. Kane.
and two other physicians. besides
nurses. He went as far with the op-
GRAFTON as he ever does with a case.
allowing his assistants to close the
wound.
"I believed" said DR.. Kane. that
could exemplify In my own case not
only that the operation could be done
without the use of a general anaesthetic,
thus saving many individuals who have
heart or other serious troubles from the
dangers of a general anaesthctic, but
that II would show that IL surgeon
can actually do the work upon himself.
there need be no fear on the part OF
the patient OF having another do IT,"
So far as Is known only two other
seif-remoyals OF the appendix are on
record. These cases are believed to
have been of a far less delicate nature
than the Kane operation. In DR.. Kane's
case the operation is what surgeons
term an interval operation.

Special Despatch 20 THE New YORK HERALp.
New York Herald Bureau,
Washington, ID. c.. Feb. Is.
President Wilson went to the Exec
utive offices to-day for the first time
in seventeen months, walking from
the White House, a distance of three
hundred yards. and back again in or
der to preside at meeting Of the
Cabinet in the regular Cabinet room.
It probably will be the last Cabinet
meeting held with such formality dur
ing the Wilson Administration, which
has barely more than three weeks to
run.
Mr., Wilson walked to the Executive
offices through the White House
grounds just before 4:S0. the time for
the Cabinet session, and remained in
the offices for an hour and half--all
the members had gone when he
started back to his room. Through
out the meeting Mr.. Wilson remained
seated in the Presidents chair at the
head Of the long table in the Cabinet
room.
The walk from the White House to
the Executive offices and back Is the
longest the President has taken sin"
he became i'll during the "swing around
the circle" more than a year ago, on
behalf OF the League of Nations. He has
been walking, of course, for months. but
as a rule 1t merely has amounted to
few steps to and from one of the White
House automobiles. Very few persons
in recent months have seen Mr.. Wilson
walk
Mr.. Wilson appeared to-day in black
clothes, a soft hat and an overcoat
which had cape effect. He carried a
cane, light In color. with rubber cpp
ct the bottom. He walked very slowly.
putting forward one foot and then the
other just q few inches. There was no
noticeable limp such ms has been de-
scribed, particularly six months ago.
when the first reports of his condition
we're given TO the public. Apparently he
has overcome the limp.
One of the White House attendants
was near when Mr.. Wilson walked, but
he did not offer assistance except when
Mr.. Wilson came to set of difficult
steps. when the attendant aided him
slightly. At no time. however. was the
President alone.
To those who have not seen the Presi-
dent at close range for year or more
his appearance to-day was disappointing.
He has aged materially-his hair is
grayer and he Is stopped. At the time OF
the League of Nations tour MIR. Wilson
stood erect, was remarkably active for
man Of his age, square shouldered
and a good six feet. To-day he is bent
over and worn; his appearance Is that
Of an old man.
The Cabinet meetings that have been
held during the last few months have
been In the White House. and not In the
Cabinet room In the regular Executive
Offices.
When the President and the members
assembled group OF photographers was
on hand to make pictures. After two
exposures had been made the President
held I'D his hand. THAT will be
enough" said he.
