Amputation Only Remedy. Special Dispateh to The Star. BALTIMORE, February 26— An operation for an ailment so rare that it is said to be but the second of its kind in the history of American| medical practice—and, strange to say, it was a former Baltimore physician, Sir William Osler, who makes men- tion of the other case—was perform- ed Wednesday at Mercy Hospital on Ruth Wilcox, a seven-year-old girl. The ailment from which the child suffered is known to the medical vorld as thrombosis of the femoral artery, in lay terms a blood clot which forms in the main artery of the leg and causes complete stoppage of circulation. It brings on gangren- ous poisoning, causing, it is said, cer- tain death if permitted to develop. The medical world knows of no method by which to relieve this stop- page except through the amputation of the leg above the clot. The clot formed in the child’s leg last week, just after she had passed the crisis in an attack of pneumonia. The leg was amputated a short dis- tance above the knee, and notwith- standing the fact that she had been desperately ill for two weeks the child stood the operation well and the doctors look for her ultimate re- covery, *; ENGINEERS AND DECK OFFICERS MAY STRIKE By tle Associated Pres< engineers and on towboats in Atlantic {no alternative but tc 1 to use the mac of the organizations to put sam; 1 labor unions * bat Owners' 4 n by Bert L. er of the exe If of his own orgs ts that expired ntil recently n in turn submitted a new contract, assistant enginee _—— HOUSE ADOPTS REPORT ON FORDNEY TARIFF was b | Measure Sent to Semate for Final | Action After 205-to-127 conference report on t tariff bill was adopted|ni | ney emergen final action. { crat, Tilinois, said the effect of the bill| 'n felt in this city ces had “jumped mendment.
