SHEPARD'S DEATH.

It Causes Discussion on Recklessness In Surgery.

SOME CHARGE LACK OF PROPER CARE.

HI* Phyalcianftg Mlie a Statement. In Which Th.y Detail the Manner of llli, Death—The Coroner to Inventl-l»tfl-Fun«rnt Arrau£ementfl.

WAS IT HEOKI.F.ASN'ESS

NEW York, March 27.—The circumstances attending the death of Col. Sliepard call attention anew to the question of reckless surgery which has been widely discussed of late. A series of articles published here last December led to the publication of the views ..of prominent physicians and surgeons throughout the country. The consensus of opinion among the old practitioners was that the modern school was going too fast, particularly in the matter of abdominal and diagnostic surgery. There are many who now point to Col. Shepard's case as a confirmation of that opinion.

Will Investigate.

The certificate of Col. Elliott Shepard's death was sent to the health board Satnrday. The cause of death was given as inhalation of ether. Br. John T. Nagle, register, would not accept the certificate so worded and would not grant a burial permit. He

xl

ELLIOTT P. SHKl'AItD.

sent, the certificate to the coroner with orders that he make an investigation. If the wishes of certain friends of the late Col. Elliott F. Shepard are carried out there will certainly be an investigation into the causes which are believed to have contributed to his sudden death Friday. These persons have no hesitancy in expressing the opinion that the unfortunate event was directly due to negligence lyon the part of the attending physicians, Drs. Charles McBurney and J. W. McLatie, in administering ether to the patient when he was not in a fit condition to receive it.

Statement of the Surgeons

"At the request of Chauncey M. Depew and the members of the family ol the late Elliott F. Shepard, Drs. McBurney and McLane, in view of the many misstatements, as they say, that have been made regarding Col. Shepard's death, made a statement to the public. After detailing the preliminary examinations and preparations for the operation, which was undertaken to remove, if practicable, the stone from his bladder, the physicians say that they were satisfied that his heart and lungs were perfectly healthy.

The patient was especially instructed to eat lightly at an early hour of the day of the proposed operation, and to take no food afterwards, as it had been decided to administer ether, and one of the requisites to a successful use of the drug was an empty stomach. The statement continues: "Col. Shepard appeared to be 1n excellent health and spirits .upon our arrival at his residence. He preferred to talte the ether on the operating table rather than on the bed. At about 12:45 the administration of the ether wa» commenccd. It was explained to him that by taking full respirations and not offering any resistance he would come more rapidly under the influence of the antesthotio and for a few ralnutoB he Inhaled the ether uncommonly well, his breathing being full and free. His color now changed somewhat and It was apparent that he was nauseated. In another moment he vomited. After this his color was better, but as his respirations woro not satisfactory," nor bis pulse, tho furthor administration of the ether was discontinued. As ye'.not enough ether had been given to admit of proceeding with the proposed opera, tion. All our efforts were now directed to securing proper respiratory action. As is usual in all cases where respiration is not perfectly satisfactory the breathing continued very labored an examination was made of the larynx to discover whether possibly some particle of food had lodged in It, but such proved not to be the case. 'The patient's condition was now so alarming as to call for extreme measures, afld in the hope that the symptoms might be due to the presence in tho windpipe of romited material accidentally inhaled, the operation of trachietomy, or opening of the windpipe, was performed. No foreign material of any kind was found. Wceven passed a rubber tube down the windpipe and into the bronchial tubes, making use of a powerful aspirating syringe without discovering the presence of anything but bloody mucus. In the meantime several careful examinations were made of the lungs and the sounds were heard such as indicate oodema of these organs. Oxygen had been previously sent for, and under its influence the patient slightly revived. Artificial respiration and every other means which might possibly give relief was resorted to. From this time on his breathing became more embarrassed, but still artificial respiration was continuously kept up, although bis pulso bccame steadily more feeble. Ho sank rapidly Into unconsciousness and in spite of all efforts died at ten minutes past 4 o'clock. In our opinion Col. Shepard died of a sudden oedemn and congestion of the lungs, following the odministration of ether, but primarily due to some cause un known to us. JAMES \V. MCLANE, M. D., "CHARI.ES McliniiNEV, M. D."

The Funeral.

Asjret the funeral arrangements have not been completed, but as far as is known the details are as follows: A brief private service will be held at the residence Tuesday morning, prior to the transfer of »hc body to the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian church, where the public service will be held at 10 o'clock, Dr. John Hall officiating. The following will be among the pallbearers: Chauncey M. Depew, Warner Miller, John S. Kennedy, Warner Van Norden, Noah Davis, John Sloane and John Sleicher. The interment will be private and will take place in the Vanderbilt mausoleum in the Moravian cemetery at New Dorp, S. ..

DOWN WITH A CRASH.

Tho Commercial National Bank of Nashville Falls.

NASHVILLE, Tenn., March 27.—The Commercial national bank of this city suspended Saturday after banking hours. The cause of the suspension was the failure two days ngo of Dobbins, Dazey A Co., with chief offices in this city, and which firm is largely indebted to the Commercial national bank. At a bankers' meeting of representatives of the other banks in the city the conclusion was unanimously reached that there was no reason in the present condition of affairs for apprehending any other suspensions among the banks of the city and that business would go on as usual. The Commercial national lias a capital stock of 8500,000 and surplus fund and undivided profits of SL90,000. It is believed that all depositors will be paid in full, and that the stockholders, when the affairs of the bank are wound up, will lose little if anything. The bank owes depositors about a half million of dollars.

FLOODS IN RUSSIA.

Many l.lves I.o«t anil Much Suffering Caused by I lie Overflow or the Itlvers.

LONDON, March 27.—Russia has set up the ever-recurring wail of distress. Kharkov, Ivason and several other provinces are partly under water. The Volga and the Don are Uowing through villages and over fields. Smaller streams hare swollen to devastating torrents and are sweeping away the few cattle which the famine left to the peasants. The loss of human life has been considerable, notably in Kharkov, where some twenty-three cases of drowning have been reported already. The subsidence of the floods is regarded as little less appalling than their rising, as fevers and cholera are expected to breed in the fields strewn with dead cattle and wreckage and covered with the foul river mud. The general loss of property has impoverished hundreds of families who had survived iu comparative prosperity the disasters of the last two years.

LAMONT MAY RETIRE.

tfAle Serloiuly 111 by the Persecutions of OfTlceseokers.

NEW YORK, March 27.—The report from Philadelphia that Secretary of War Latnont was so ill as to arouse the serious concern of his friends, while to some extent exaggerated, is believed to be true in some particulars. Mr. Lamont's health has not been at all satisfactory of late and it is quite possible that he will soon be compelled to leave the war department and take a lengthy leave of absence. His enfeebled condition is said to be due to the importunities of the hordes of officesee kers a the capitol who have given him no rest since inauguration day.

For Killing a Hoy.

PARIS, March 27.—Anarchists Meyrules and Chappuliot have been sentenced to life imprisonment for the murder of a fellow anarchist, the youth Bissen, whom they suspected to be a police spy.

Imposed Fines of 020,000.

NEW YORK, March 27.—Recorder Smythe Friday imposed fines aggregating about $20,000 on talesmen summoned for examination in the Buchanan murder case who had failed to answer to the summons when called to be questioned concerning their qualifications as jurors. Each man who ignored the summons was fined $100.

Morse Named for Scotland. \YASHINGTOX, March 27.—The president has decided to fill the important position of consul to Glasgow, Scotland, by the appointment of Allan P. Morse, of Michigan. His principal opponent was Mr. Owsley, of Illinois, who formerly held that place. The present consul at Glasgow is Levi W. Brown, of Ohio, who was appointed in 1889.

The message was as follows: "We, the citizens of New York, in mass meeting assembled, tender you -our hcartfolt sympathy in your efforts to achieve for Ireland the long-sought-for measure of justice which we trust God will enable you to speedily carry to a nuofesstul termination, and we pledge you our vigorou* and continued support through tho struggle. THOMAS ADDIS EMMET, TO* "MORGAN J. O'BRIEN, "JOHN BYRNE."

Full or Enthusiasm.

The audience could have been no more enthusiastic if home mlo were a thing of the present. Congressman Bourke Cockran, who made the principal address, spoke in such a hopeful strain that his hearers were kept busy shouting approval of his well-rounded periods and seconding his finely-put motions for the support of the Gladstone bill. Then the prominent persons in the audience put down their names for a proposed subscription of $50,000 to help the measure along, and a big sum was realized.

ISourke Cockrau*s Address.

Mr. Cockran said in part: "Never in the history of English statesmanship has there been a triumph so great as tbat of William Ewart Gladstone. It was not triumph of blood, entailing tears and suffering, but a triumph of peaceful statesmanship, glorious with the promise of freedom It wan not conquest of territory, but a conquest of hearts. We aro not assembled here to dtsouss the measure, but to voice the upprovol of the whole civilized world on the measure which Gladstone has proclaimed and which the English people have decreed shall be accomplished. To-night w« meet "o Indorse the policy of emancipation which lia3 been substituted for the policy of oppression. "England lias at last awakened to the feeling tliat the moral law Is binding on a nation as well as ou an Individual No one can violate I'je conditions of nature without suffering tho penalties. England has abandoned the policy of violence, the last- chapter in the long, sad story has been written, the Informer and the hangman are no longer the exponents of England's policy to Ireland, the Jail and the gibbet have ceased to play apart In the struggle. God has at last vouchsafed an answer to the petitions that have gone up to the throne. "The liberty which Gladstone has restored the Irlsh.will ever guard as a sacred Inheritance. Forgotten are the Injustice and the oppression of 700 years forgiven are the wronps. They were Inflicted by the masses of the English people. Tho injustice of the classcs has been repaid by the masses. Standing tonight upon tho threshold of independence Ireland has no vengeance to be assuaged In blood. She looks forward to a future radiant with glorious promise, a future of peace and prosperity, of Intellectual and commercial development, a future wherein tho dccaylng-clttes shall spring into new life, deserted harbors shall bo filled with the argosies of nations, wht-re the smoke of happy homes shall be as an Incense to a bcneflolent Clod."

Messages from Governors.

Maj. John Byrne, Noah Davis and Dr. William E. Wallace spoke also, and John Jerome Rooncy read a poem. The governors of Virginia, New York. Washington, Mississippi, Missouri, Massachusetts, Vermont, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Arkansas, Wisconsin, Connecticut, Delaware, Minnesota, Maryland and Michigan sent messages of sympathy with the movement for the freedom of Ireland.

From list in McCarthy.

A dispatch to President Emmett from Justin McCarthy evoked enthusiasm. It was as follows: "We learn with gratitude of, the efforts of yourself and the federation to help forward the Irish movement. Effectually continue the work you did by timely assistance at the general election. Gladstone's home rule bill will pass the commons, but only by the unremitting attendance of the Irish party. The movement needs the prompt and generous support of kinsmen and friends to offset tho desperate effects of wealthy and powerful enemies combined against Ireland. Greeting and success to your great meeting on behalf of tho Irish party. JUSTIN MCCARTHT.J

The flames rose straight up to a height, of nearly 1,000 feet, Thu lava poured down the sides of the mountain in streams, destroying the crops and ail vegetation at the base.
