However, she yah, the greatest toll in hahit-s' lives occurred in the west end. and said th;jt since the first of the ye-.- im infants had died. fJrcat stress was laid on the sewerag conditions and the cause of the majority of contagious diseases in that part of the city was hlamed to open vaults located in proximity

to Homes. Other conditions, such as careless handling of garhage, poor ventilation in residences and many others were mentioned hy her.

That 'ou many people are sent to the operating table without real cause and that much of the illness among- infarts is due primarily to improper clothing wen two salient bits of information who h physicians of the l:;th district look home with them last night to ruminate over, following a session of the district medical association held yesterday afternoon and evening at the Oliver hotel and topped off with a banquet last night. Ir. J. C. Cleming of KIkhait pave out the opinion regarding operations, while Ir. C. C. Dubois of Warsaw told what he believed caused much of the sickness anions infants. Any. Thomas Slick featured the banquet with an address on the working-men's compensation law of Indiana. Dr. Fleming", who aired his views on operations, spoke on "Some Considerations Regarding: the Preparation and Aftt-r-treatment of Surgical Cases." He said he was ready to lay a bet that over L'5 percent of the operations that are performer! are done needlessly and the poor patient might just as well have been treated without the aid of the knu'e. IVojxt Consultation. Dr. Fleming held that proper consultation by competent physicians should always be held before decision is m.'ule t operate on a patient. Determining the nature of the case, he asserted, should he the first aim of a doctor and not rush to an operatingroom at the slightest provocation. Many cases in which operations are necessary, he said, might be prevented by the patient himself by not permitting symptoms of an ailment to progress too for before summoning- a physician. Speaking of operations, he said: "Cleanliness is the fundamental in

all cases. Sterilized instruments are essential to Rood work and proper caring for patients can best be made In hospitals where nurses and other needed instruction is at demand. "Antiseptics are often found to be used Improperly. One antiseptic is used w here another is of much more value to the patient. Tither is a very Kood antiseptic in some cases and in others that vary but a trifle It is dangerous. Team work should play

Fleming- was discussed hy Irs. C. C. Terry. South P-nl: A. C. McDonald. Warsaw; ('has. Stoltz, fc?outh Hend, and A. C,. Miller, South F.end. in which they upheld the facts presented by Dr. Fleming. "Impetigo Contagiosa" was the subject of a paper read by Dr. J. W. Kidson of Plymouth. Comment on t lie subject was made by Dr. II. C Shanklin of South P.end and Dr. K. M. Hoover of Elkhart. Too Wnrrn Clothing. Dr. DaP.ois spoke on "Heat and Infant Mortality." "Many diseases, especially thoso of the summer months," he said, "are often attributed to some kind of a germ, when as a matter of fact the source has been too warm clothing." Two hundred children in Chicag-o, he said, were weighed during the summer and the same 2 C ) again weighed in the winter, and no difference in weight noted because the same weighty clothing was worn during both periods of the year. "This is the cause of these contagious skin diseases found freely among children," he continued. "Among; these same children the death rate is greater than anion? children who are properly dressed for the season. Many children are found to wear woolen clothing- during the hot months as well as duringthe cold months. "The heat of the body alone is not sufficient to warm the child any more in t ie summer than in the winter and clot luv should be worn accordingly. Skin diseases are found usually Trst in small blemishes, brea king out on th? body of the chibl and hey sunn spread to the entire surface of the hotly." Discussion was opened by J. A. Snapp of Goshen in which he spoke of instances familiar to him of such diseases, but stated that they are not as prominent in small cities as in the larger ones. C. I,. Sloanaker of Deittr's Ford also discussed the subject. The5 IttKMitücn Hay. Dr. S. A. Clark exhibited a case of cancer on the lip on one of his patients whom he has satisfactorily cuied during the past few months, lie spoke on the subject "The Hoentgen Kay as a Therapeutic Agent." A number of X-ray pictures were thrown on a screen to demonstrate the use and results of the X-ray treatment in cancerian cases. He spoke of his experience, with the Xray treatment during- t lie pa.st four ears which, has bf 'ery successful. Discussions folbu, od from Dr. C. YV. Flay wood of Flkhart and G. Y.

HELD II ST. L

R. L. Patterson Thought to be Basil Forsyihe Since Alleged Crimes Tally.

Another episode in the checkered career of Basil H. Forsythe. Miller, Sweeny, Stafford, or whatever his alias is, it is believed, has t een uncovered at St. I,ouis. Mo., where a man by the name of Ii. L. Patterson ha.s been arrester! on complaint of the Periodical Publishers' Association of New York. Patterson is thought to be Forsythie. In fact the meagre reports which have come to Prosecutor Chester lc. Montgomery's olfae tally in every respect to the alleged frauds lie is charged with committing here. At St. Iouis. Patterson was conducting a maprazine agency. As was the instance here, there was nothing wrong with the agency save that he was unaccredited, and took subscriptions for magazines, which it is charged his customers never received. Forsythe was arrested heiv at the Avenue hotel some time ago with a woman whom he said was 1 is v.ifo. They were arrested under the name of Miller. In the trial in city police ('our: ;t was brought out that his name was Forsythe and hi home wan in Klmira, X'. Y. I-ater the real Forsythe tame to South Ibnd from Klmira seeking evidence, it is said, for a divorce suit which he intended to start. In the meantime "Forsythe." alias Miller and alia.s a half dozen other things, was bound over to the circuit court grand jury on embezzlement charges. Pond was fixed, at $.10ü which was furnishe-d. Now it develops that "Forsythe"

is out of the city and it is believed he intends to forfeit his bond. The St. Louis authorities are holding Patterson pending prosecution which has been started there. Some evidence collected from the prosecutor's ofhee here has been forwarded to St. Louis. In the event that Forsythe and Patterson are found to be one and the same man. and in case he Is convicted there, prosecution here will be postponed until later.

on compensation

Atty. Slick said in part: "The - obi Knglish law in regard to tho workmen receiving compensation for injuries received by them while at their posts of duty was very much more severe on the employe than the present law in Indiana. Hy the old common law it wius entirely the duty of the employe to present his case and showthat he was injured through the results of his employer's negligence. There were three gates for the employes to pass through before he had a chance to receive anything for his injuries. The old fellowservant rule, was one. It was the privilege of the employer to show that the -person injured was injured through the act of a fellow T. orkman, and having this show n

t was free from suit. He might also

show that the workman injured contributed to his negligence and .avoid

compensation laws, or lie could bring f the old laws of assumption of risk on the part of the employer, which j meant that w hen an employe entered his services he was entitled to look . through all dangers that he might come in contact with and choose j whether or not he cared to work ' there. loiter the law was changed ( and it became the duty of the em- i plover to prove that the injuries j were not caused by his negligence. j "At the annual banquet of the, St. Joseph Par association four years! ago a law was advocated similar to j the present compensation law. The j employer who does not care to be ; bound by this law must now file a i remonstrance to the law stating that his working force will not come un- I der the law in ca.se of injuries. If this is not done he will be bound tr i act according to the law. "The employer has the privilege j to appoint a physician to care for! the injured person for 3- das and ! If he fails to so appoint, the injured ! has a right to furnish his own physl- 1 cian and the employer must pay ! the expenses during the 30 days. If i the patient is ill r.u.re than 30 days

and requires the aid of a physician
