DOCTOR SAVES LIFE,
 STATE ID TAKE IT
Condemned Murderer Operated on
 for Appendicitis

New York. May 1o,-Rutger B Warder, q condemned murdered, was taken from the death house at Sing Sing last night and was operated upon in the prison hospital for acute ap- pendieitis, It was the first time in the memory Of Sing Sing officials that a prisoner had been removed from the death house except by court order,
 When Warder was stricken sud- dendly yesterday afternoon, Dr, Amos O. Squire sent for nr, Perry Town send and Dr. Abraham kosseff 10 yer- fly his diagnosis, The prisoner was carried from his cell on a litter to the hospital, where a separate room was narttioned of to comply with the law requiring solitary confinement for condemned murderers.
 nr. Squire performed the operation In the presence of the two outside physicians. Special care was taken lest the condemned man cheat the chair by dying during the operation or from the effects of the ether. Just before the anealasthetic was given to him. Warder said: If anybody should ask you, you can tell them that I never killed anybody. Go ahead,' He re- peated the sentence, T never killed anybody" as he came out of the ether.
 Dr Squire. who remained at the bedside all night said his patient was resting fairly well after the opera tion, and had a good heart action. An armed guard remained at the door of the room. and the prisoner will be guarded in this way until he is able to return to the death house.
 The law provides that a court or der must be obtained to remove a prisoner from the defIl house, but it also demands that livery precaution be taken to see that the prisoner does not die or commit suicide to cheat justice. Warder vas taken from the death house once before, when he testified at the trial of Mrs. Henry Werner for the murder of her hus- band
 Warder was convicted of killing Werner with a shotgun while both men were hunting near Ilion, Herki- mer County, last February Mrs. Werner was tried but was acquitted. Warder was hired man on Werner's farm.
 Judge Alverson sentenced Warder to die in the week of May 15-this week-but the date was postponed by notice of appeal filed last month.
