However, Miss Anna Kenney of 207 Beaver street saw the car being backed up and driven away and observod that it was cream color, but she did not catch the registration number, as the lights were quickly turned out. When Officer Daniel Cosgrove reached the scene of the collision, he found a bumper on the road, the ferce of the impact having knocked it oft the offending car while moving |Iskra’s machine 30 feet and damag ing it considerably. Sergeants P. |A. McAvay and P. J. O'Mara and Officer E. B. Kiely tooix up the in- sons to school regularly. Arraigned recently on a complaint under the child welfare act, Mrs. Walling was fined $5.

This has been definitely stated in the press, but neither the bulletins nor the unofficial palace statements mention this condition. A larger crowd than usual for the last few days waited outside Buck- ingham palace this morning to watch the arrival and departure of the doctors and the posting of the bulletin. Lord Dawson of Penn and Sir Hugh Rigby, the noted surgeon, ar- rived at 9:50 o’clock this morning, 8ir Hugh left at 11:45 and Lord Dawson at 12:2 Prince Goes Hunting The Prince of Wales went hunting with the Belvoir hounds today, thus indicating that anxiety in the royal family had been allayed at least & little as the prince had planned to cancel his week-cnd hunting pro- gram. Margin Narrow London, Dec. 29 (P)—It was gen- erally felt today that the margin of safety for King George continued very narrow. The report of the maintenance of a slight improve- ment during yesterday was wel- comed, but it has done little to al- lay the anxiety generally felt over the loss of strength on Thursday. Some of the views of medical writers in this morning's newspapers of the king's condition were very gloomy. The medical expert of the Daily Mail said that recently the king had not made progress but “at there had been considerable periods Hope that prog- ress would continue until he had gained some of his lost strength has unhappily for the moment been deferred.” Interest Aroused The gift of a quantity of Dakin's solution by Dr. William O'Neill | Sherman of Pittsburgh has aroused considerable public intercst. It was generally understood that the em- best he was just holding his own and | -ployment of the solation forms no | part of the new measures which it was intimated the king's doctors were contemplating in the hope of | bettering his general condition. It was thought that the solution would be used merely for the treatment of the local trouble in the chest. Dr. Sherman, who is chief surgeon for the Carnegic Steel Co. at Pitts- burgh, was a#sociated with Lord | Dawson of Penn, one of the king's | physiclans, during the World War. The solution was said to be a prep- aration of sodium hypo chloride and was used by the allied armies for sterilization of wounds. The evening bulletin of the king's condition said: “The king has had a restful day. The slight improvement noted this morning is maintained.” Later it was learned at the palace | that the king had been able to take a certain amount of nourishment in the course of the day. While it was noted that the last two bulletins indicated that the dan- gerous relapse of Thursday had been brough at least temporarily at a standstill, it was felt that the danger had not yet been overcome. Points Out Weakness The medical expert of the Daily Mail pointed out the interdependence of the trouble from the chest ab- | FOUND AFTER HUNT| Girl Gives Police Tip That Leads | ng an auto- ' according to his admission to the po- | the | of the collision | scess and the extreme weakness the general condition. He said the ;ch»st trouble could not be healed without borrowing strength from ali the body reserves. These reserves must necessarily have been severely taxed already and now have little to {spare. Even that little already was heavily mortgaged for the mainte- nance of the functions of life itself and these reserves could only re- cover strength from nourishment and rest. That the king's physiclans | were able to report a greater dispo- sition to take food and the enjoy- | ment of a quieter sleep was there- fore welcomed and formed some ground for hope. There were indications of a more hopeful feeling at Buckingham palace. After the evening bulletin the Prince of Wales, who had dined with Queen Mary, decided to adhere [to his original intention of joining ithe Saturday hunt o the Belvoir !hounds. The Duke and Duchess of {York remained at Naseby Hall, i Northamptonshire, having postponed !their return to London. PRISONER FOILS Gov. Smith Grants Commutation fo Six Persons Albany, Y.
