His condition is serlous. | At 10 o'clock his secretary, John West | Wood, hurried from Sir Thomas’ suite on | the parlor floor of the Auditorfum Annex | and summoned Drs. Nicholas Senn and George W.

In the evening the Baro- | net’s condition became suddenly worse, | and it was decided to call eminent spe- | cialists into consultation. | For more than an hour Drs, Senn, Web- | ster and Thomas were engaged in their | examination, concluding with a diagnosis | that unmistakable symptoms of inflam- | mation of the stomach and bowels were | in evidence.

Revell. “It is true that there are serious indications of inflam- mation, and we are all pretty much wor- ried. Everything is being done, and an- other consultation will be held in the morning. In the meantime Drs. Thomas and Webster and myself will be in con- stant attendance on Sir Thomas.” —_—— Broadway Bank Building Burned.

ESSEX, Ont., Sept.15.—Drs. James Brien and W. C. Doyle, physicians in this town, were called last week to attend Mrs. Frank Wagner. A child was born to her of unusual size and giving no signs of life. in a vain attempt to bring to life the child with hot and cold water baths, in- flating the lungs with a tube, artificlal respiration and every other means known, and they finally decided to use electricity. The house where the baby wds born is three blocks from the physiclans’ office. The doctors wrapped the child in a blank- et and carried it to the office, where no time was lost in aiternately applying a Faradic current and a galvanic current. The negative pole was placed at the base of the brain and the positive pole to the abdomen. The physicians administered a current of 120 milllamperes to the body. Fifteen minutes after they had com- menced the treatment the child gave a short gasp. This encouraged the physi- clans, who increased the power of the electrical current to 200" milllamperes, the | positive pole being changed to the base of the brain and the negative pole to the abdomen. Every moment the little one showed increasing signs of life, and within ten minutes it was breathing nat- urally. The doctors then decided to give the child an electrical spray bath. This was done with a static machine, and when it was completed the youngster was to all intents as healthy as any other child less than two hours old. Since then it has continued to thrive. ——— Women'’s Club Manager Dies. BERLIN, Sept. 15.—Miss Morgan, man- ager of the American Women'’s Club, died here last night.

W., WASHINGTON, Sept. 15.—Secretary of the Treasury Shaw has definitely de- cided to withdraw the Government de- posits from all banks reducing their cir- culation to take advantage of the high price of United States bonds where such banks are already designated as United States depositories. Furthermore, he will refuse to granteapplications from new banks desiring to become Government de- positories unless they agree to maintain their circulation at the present figures. This, the Secretary hopes, will put an end to the perplexing situation brought about by the clamor of many banks for increased deposits, while at the same time they are doing their best to reduce the volume of currency available for busi- ness by retiring circulating notes based on United States bonds. While the treasury officials, as well as officers of national banks,. believe that such an anomalous situation/is due more to the system than to the action of the banks themselves, Secretary Shaw be- lieves it is time to DUt an end to it, it possible, and will make use of his discre- tionary power in naming depositories to show his disapproval of retiring circula- tion for the purposes of bond speculation. Although no official announcements have been or will be made on this inten- tion of ary Shaw, it can be said on the high authority that the action will he taken.

N the hope of escaping with a light sentence, or possibly a small fine, Deputy United States Marshal Gamble, who is charged with crookedness in connection with the wholesale liberation of Chi- nese under sentence of deportation, has made a complete confessicn to United States District Attorney Woodworth. Gamble, who was arrested Monday morn- ing, but subsequently released on $2000 bail, declares in his confession that Hom Toon and Wong Tin, who are well known in the Chinese quarter, éonspired with him to engage in the traffic of substitut- ing old and decrepit Chinamen for those who were ordered transported. The amount to be paid for defeating the pur- poses of the exclusion act was $120 for each Chinaman who was thus favored. DASHER IN A BAD LIGHT. Deputy Sherifft William Dasher is placed in an unepviable light through Gamble's confession. The disgraced Deputy United ‘States Marshal in his statement to Dis- trict Attorney Woodworth declared that he went to the County Jail ‘and received — % from Dasher the six Chinese who were under sentence of deportation. They had been thoroughly coached by somebody in the jail and were thus aware of the des- perate plan to hoodwink the United States officials and circumvent them in their efforts to send them back to China. Dasher, without any attempt at Investi- gation, readily turned over the prisoners to Gamble. SIGNALED TO DISAPPEAR. The Chinese prisoners had been pre- viously schooled as to what they should do after they left the County Jail. Ac- cording to Gamble he was to throw up his hands after reaching a certain place, which was the signal to them to disap- pear. After they were turned over to Gambie by Dasher the six Chinese walked down.. Broadway, escorted by the Deputy Mar- shal. On reaching Jackson and Sansome streets, Gamble, evidently satisfled that his plans had not miscarried, suddenly threw up his hands.

OFIA, Bulgaria, Sept. 15.—No im- portant step is likely to be takem at the present critical juncture, pending the return to the capita Prince Ferdinand and a reply from the powers or some intimation from them in response to Bulgaria's note.
