Fall Won't See Doctor

Washington, Oct. 10 LP-Albort D. Falls personal objection to Dr. Sterling Ruifin, who was one of President Wilson's physicians. today complicated the question whether his bribery trial, halted by his ill., ness, is to continue.
 Dr. Ruffin was designated by Jus tice Hitz, presiding at the former in torior secretary's trial in the Dis trict Of Columbia supreme court, to examine him after his own physician had. refused to permit him to leave his bed.
 The aged defendant refused to receive the noted specialist. It was explained on Falls behalf that his action was purely personal matter, that Dr. Ruffin was the only physi- clan in the country whom he would not permit to examine him.
 The physician attended President Wilson 2s consulting specialist during his long illness. Fall at that time was in the senate, q bitter op- ponent of the war president, and was one of a committee that called upon him in his sick room after the question of his fitness to con- tinue in office had been raised.
 Dr. Thomas A. Claytor, cele- bratcd heart specialist and friend of Dr. Ruffin, accompanied the lat ter on his call at Falls quarters. The aged man, suffering from a re- lapse in the long illness which has delayed his trial for years. was in deep sleep. pr. Clayton was brought into the case at Dr. Ruff Falls behalf that he had mot the slightest objection" to being ex- amine1 by him.
 Unable to Appear Today
 Dr. II. T. Stafford, his personal physician, who with 8 nurse and members of the family have attend cd him during the two days he in sisted on attending the trial, said it was mot possible" that he would be able to appear today.
 Justice Hitz postponed until to- day a decision whether to continue the case or declare it a mistrial atfer hearing from Falls attorney, Frank Hogan, yesterday that his physician believed his life would be endangered if he returned to the court.
 Fall has been examined eight times in the last three years by physicians for the government, all of whom reported that he was not able to come here from his New Mexico home for trial.
