Between n Labor Editor and

Bared by Republicans
LIMITED DAY ATTACKED
A middle-aged woman waa made to see
through her Itft eye for the nrt time In
mora than two years, a iortlon of n petrl
ed eyeball waa removed from the left eye
e-f a, girl and a youns man was fitted, with
an artificial pupU In an eye cllnlo today
at the Hahnemann Hospital.
The operations were performed by I)r,
W. TV. Speakman, 1125 Chestnut stroot,
Iltltedelphla, and profossor of opthalmology
I at Hahnemann Medical College. This cllnlo
waa one of the Important features of the
Xth-day aoHlon of the Clinical Congress
f Surgeons, which la In session here.
The woman, who reg-alnod the sight of
her left eye. has been suffering1 from cata
ract for more than two years. When the
cataract waa removed by Doctor Speakman
th patient could tell the time of day with
the eye which had been affected.
At a Blockley Hospital cllnlo given by
Dr. J, K. Young a case of amputation of
the thigh was shown for tuberculosis of the
Jinee. Dr. Toung waa aslssted by Dr. Itobert
1 Gray.
In the case of the girl suffering from a
petrified eyeball, the eyeball had been slow
ly turning to lime, and the operation was
performed merely to lmprovo her looks.
Dr. Speakman entertained no hope of sav
ing the eye: he merely cut nway tho lime
portldn of the crystalllno lens, leaving a
totally black pupil.
PARALYSIS CUIIE8
How the limbs of Infantile paralysis vic
tims can be rested by a rebalancing of mus
eJea waa demonstrated by Dr. J. M Hpelllssy
at St- Joseph's Hospital. Doctor Spclllssy's
subject was a young girl. He cut the ten
dons In the right heel, causing tho heel to
droop'. Then he transferred tho tendons
of the big tie from the Inside of tho foot
to the outside of tho foot. This, he said,
would bring the action of tho tendon on
healthy muscles and would enable the child
to walk. '
tio Enid hnttH'tr. that she would nave
to walk on the flat of her foot Instead of
en the toes ns formerly.
PAINLESS OPERATIONS
A remarkable method of performing pain
less und bloodless operations by the use
et a new drug called "novocain" was de
monstrated at tho Polyclinic Hospital to
day by Dr. P. O. Sklllern.
The operation was for dermoid cyst of the
head. . , .
Doctor Sklllern told tho assembled sur
geons that these cysts frequently contained
teeth, sections of Jaw and hair. Tho phe
nomena resulted, ho said, because the cyst
developed from skin tissue, and hair, teeth
and jawbone develop from the aamo source.
He said that cysts were dangerous be
cause, cancer formed from tho same tissue.
In this operation tho doctor used the now
drug novocain In nerve blocking, and said
the drug waa superior to ether and scvon
times superior to cocaine.
HOW DHUQ is usfco
The drug Is made In Germany, but be
cause of the war la hard to obtain at this
time. Doctor Sklllern injected a two per
cent solution of novocain at a point where
It blocks the pain Impulses of the nerve
fibers from getting to the brain. Ho com
pared his method to that of a telephone
exchange, saying when a telephone sub
scriber refuses to pay his bill he Is cut off
from the rest of the systom. Novocain cuts
etc the point of operation from the rest of
the bodily system.
In regard to making the operation blood
less. Dr. Sklllern said: "The first duty of
the surgeon Is to find the artery which sup
plies the operation field with blood and sup
press this artery, so thero will be no bleed
ing; of tissues. There are three ways of
doing this. First, have ail assistant press
the artery against the bone ; second, squeeze
the artery with rt rubber bandage; third,
use a metal clip on the blood vessel trunk."
A patient, who. three days ago, was sub
jected to an Injection of magnesium sul
phate for delirium tremens, was today
brought back before the clinic. He waa In
perfect condition, showing that tho opera
tion had been a success.
HOSPITAL MOBILIZATION
Hundreds of physicians are coming into
Philadelphia today from all sections of
Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware and
Maryland to witness the mobilization of a
EOO-bed base hospital tomorrow on ueimom
Plateau, In Falrmount Park.
The mobilization of this hospital promises
to be one of the most Important features of
the clinical congress of surgeons here.
Officials of the War Department at Wash
ington, officers of the regular army and
officers of the National duards of three or
, four States will come here to watch the op
erations of the field hospital.
The mobilization of the bed-base hospital

"W, Crlle, of the Lakeside Unit, of Cleve
' tend. Doctor Crlle returned recently from
" -'hospital work In tho European war zone,
' ,aa4 he Is considered the foremost author
Ky on bed-base hospitals In this country.
For the first time army officers and
physicians in this country will have an
, aaaortunlty tomorrow to witness a big bed
fceae hospital under full operation,
n Corps of nurses and physicians will be

GREETING BY RAIL-MEN
Letters In which Woodrow Wnson as
early as 1909, before ho was a candidate
for President of the United States, pro
claimed himself the foe of the ctght-tiour
day, or, In fact, any limitation upon f
length of the working day. were made
public today for tho first time by tho lie
publican State committee.
Copies of the two letters which have
been quoted In part by Hepubllcan orators
slnco the passage of the so-called "eight
hour" law, ns Issued by the Slate commit
tee, are facsimiles of the original communi
cations that passed between Edgar It Lav
erty, labor editor on the New York Evening
Telegram, and Wilson, who at that time
wna president of Princeton Unltcrslty.
Laverty, In his letter tn Mr. Wilson,
quotes tho present Democratic candldato as
bitterly attacking the Idea of a limited
working day for members of trades unions.
Tho speech of Mr. Wilson's to which ho
referred was delivered at Princeton June
13, 1909.
Mr. Wilson, In his nnewer to Laverty,
verifies the statements attributed to him,
dies two or three minor Instances nnd con
cludes by saying that he Is convinced of
tho general truth of his statements.
FIItST OF THE LKTTETIS
Moth letters bear facsimiles of the signa
tures of the writers. The first of tho two
letters was sent by Mr. Lnvcrty to Mr. Wil
son under data of New York, Juno 1C, 1909.
It follows:
Hon. Woodrow Wilson,
President Princeton University,
Princeton. N. J.
Dear sir In tho New York Times of
June 14, which purports to give, ex
tracts of your baccalaureate address to
the students of Princeton University,
you nro quoted ns follows:
"You know what the usual standard
of the employe is In our dny. It Is to
K.vo ns little ns he may for his wages.
Labor Is standardized by the trade
unions, and thlH Is the standard to
which It Is mnda to conform. No one
Is suffered to do more than tho average
workman can do. In soino trades and
handicrafts no one Is suffered to do
more than the least skilful of his fel
lows can do within the hours allotted
to n dny's labor, nnd no ono may work
out of hours nt all or volunteer any
thing beyond tho minimum."
Now. your reported remarks strike
mo an being so extraordinary so dif
ferent from what I, as a member of
organized labor, have found to bo tho
facta that I feel Impelled to ask you
If. the foregoing paragraph Is a correct
report nt whnt you said.
If you are correctly quoted I should
llko to have you give mc your nuthor.
Ity for your stntcment thai In labor
unions "no ono Is suffered to do moro
than the nvcrago workman can do."
Also glvo mo tho names of a few trades
or handicrafts whero "no one Is suf.
forced to do moro than the least sklltuP
of his fellows can do within tho hours
allotted to n day's labor, and no one
may work out of hours nt all or volun
teer nnythlng beyond tho minimum."
Ah a matter of course, a president
of a university of the reputed stand
ing of Princeton would not make state
ments In his baccalaureate address un
loss he knows, or at least fully believes,
that his statements ore true. There
fore, It ought not bo a difficult matter
for you to oblige me with the names
of those labor unions whose laws, or
even policies, bring about tho results
you specify.
Awaiting your reply with lively In.
terest, I am, yours very truly,
BDGAn n..LAVEItTY.
WILSON'S ItEPLY
Mr. Wilson's reply1 was written from
Princeton University under date of June
18, 1909. It follows:
My dear Blr Your letter of June 10
contains a very proper challenge. I
quite ngree that I ought not to make
the statements I did make about the
trades unions, unless-1 were able to
clto casos In verification of my state
ments. .
I, of course, had no Individual trades
unions In mind which I can name by
number, but I had In mind several
cases of buildings In New York city,
for cxnmple, the bricklayers working
on which spent about one-third of tho
working day sitting around, smoking
their pipes and chatting, because they
had laid the number of bricks to which
they were limited for the day by tho
union to which they belonged. I had In
mind numerous experiences of my own
In dealing with working men In Prince
ton, where I onco found It Impossible,
for example, on n very cold evening to
get n broken window pane mended at
tho house of an Invalid friend, because
tho prescribed labor hours of the day
were over and tho glazier could not
venture, without risking a strike, to do
the work himself and could not order
any of his workmen to do It. I had In
mind scores of Instances, In short, lying
within my own experience and resting
upon the testimony of friends In whose
veracity I havo every reason to have
the greatest confidence.
I, of course, could not, tn the case of
more than one or two of these In
stances, give legat proof of my asser
tions, but the evidences I havo are en
tirely sufficient to convince mo of the
general truth of the statement I made.
Very truly yours,
WOODROW WILSON,
CUMBERLAND, Md Oct. 27. They
sprung a new one on the President and his
parly In Cumberland this afternoon. It
was a banner reading:
"It's not so much that we're for Wilson,
as that Wilson Is for us."
It was one of severnl bnnners declaring
Wilson la for labor, held aloft In a crowd
of several thousand persons who met tho
train, with band muslo and cheers. The
Cumborland welcome was ono of the live
liest the President has received slnco the
campaign opened.
At Piedmont and Keyeer, W. Va.. big
crowds of railroad workers greeted tho
President. While he was shaking hands
from the rear platform, a small boy who
could not see what was going on, climbed
up on a car nnd called out, "Hey, mister,
whnt nro you giving away7"
He got a laugh from everybody, Includ
ing tho President.
President Wilson Is returning today to
Shadow Lawn to preparo for the final fire
works of tho campaign. Tomorrow In Wil
son Dny throughout tho nation, nnd Democ
racy will observo It generally, reading at
local meetings tho same message that the
President Is to deliver to a gathering nt
tho summer Whlto House.
Next week the President goes to New
York for a Berles of addresses designed to
swing tho Empire State Into the Democratic
column. Ho leaves Shadow Lawn Tuesday
for lluffalo, where he speaka November 1,
following n day In New York city. Both
days promise to bo full of action.
The President's reception In Cincinnati
was a pleasant surprlso to his lieutenants.
Politicians there said that never before had
there been audi political demonstrations,
leaders predicting thataftor tho President
speaks In New York the betting odds will
swing from even to favorable odds.
Tho President wna strenuous In the four
addresses yesterday, In which unity of pur
pose, allegiance to the country nnd deter
mination to save tho country for tho work
nfler tho Mar tho President's threo points
of emphasis received applause which con
vinced his friends there Is no doubt about
which way Ohio Is going November 7. His
spirited dscusslon of the economic situation
to come after tho war they regarded ns
shattering to Republican high tar ft contentions.
Considering everything, there Is n mighty
confident party of Democrats rctunilnR to
Shadow Lawn today.

Bob Folwell. coach of Pennsylvania's
football team which Is In Pittsburgh, pre
pared tp meet Glenn Warner's famous
Pitt eleven, admitted befori leaving Phila
delphia last night that there was little
chance for Howard Berry, the sensational
fullback, to start Saturday's game. This
announcement was withheld from Berry's
teammates because Folwell feared that It
would destroy their confidence and also
because the fighting coach Is hopeful for
tho bcsL )
Folwell ndmlts that If Berry's Injured
kneo mends rapidly enough for him to Btart
tho game It Is not likely that he will be
ablo to finish If the game Is ns bitterly
co'ntostcd ns Is expected. In the final signal
drill . yesterday. Berry's lameness slowed
down tho wholo team and Folwctl sub
stituted Bill Qutgley.
When askedwhy he had switched Berry
and Qulgley. Folwelt said: "Berry's knee
has stiffened up on him In the last twenty
four hours nnd Doctor Hancock advises me
that It Is In very bad shape. Berry ran
too much nnd worked too hard on Wednes
day after having told me that the Injured
kneo was ns good as ever, but It was not
strong enough to stand the strain.
"Doctor Hancock says that It Is barely
posslblo that he can reduce the swelling
by Saturday morning, but that I Bhould not
count on Berry being In shape to start the
game. If Berry's knee suddenly responds
to baking and the electric massage treat
ment, he will start the game nnd I will
keep him In ns long ns possible, but I doubt
very much If ho will start.
"I cannot afford to take any chnnces on
a cripple In such an Important game, and
unless Berry can convince mo that he Is
niivaimiit- nt to start I will depend upon
Bill Qugley. Almost any one Is preferable
to a cripple who will slow up tho entire
team In an Important game, nnd I cannot
allow sentiment to. retard the progress of
tho team.
"If Berry was In perfeet trim, I would
feel certain of victory, but as It stands
now, we hnve a fight on our hands. Even
If Berry Is In shape to start, his kicking
will be affected and I was counting upon
gaining many yards In the exchange of
punts, as Pitt has no kicker 4n Berry's
class when Howard Is right."
Folwoll's admission that Berry Is In sucn
poor shape that he Is not likely 'to start
the game will cause much glcom among the
students. I.ast night the Red and Blue
team was given the greatest send-off a
Penn team has received slnco 1904 when
Bob Torrey's team departod for Cambrldgo
to meet Harvard, and Berry's name was
on every tongue
Just before the train pulled out of Broad
Street Station, the COOO students who
crowded their way Into tho train-shed
started shouting, "Wo want Berry, we
want Berry," but Coach Folwell Informed
them that Berry had retired early and
they were keenly, disappointed. As a mat
ter of fact, at the very moment Doctor Han
cock was treating Berry's Injured knee
In tho sleeping car and admitted that the
swelling had not been reduced.
If Berry Is unable to play Penn will be
weakened fully fifty per cent, not alone for
his Individual brilliancy, but because of the
moral effect on the rest of the men, who
hae como to look upop tho former North
east High boy as their hope for victory.
Qulgley, who probably will start the game,
or at least be substituted early In the game.
Is n dependable back, and many of thoso
whe attend the dally workouts on Franklin
Field are of the opinion that a placo should
be found for him In tho backllold.
Qutgley Is a consistent player and Is the
best kicker In the squad, barring Berry,
and ho Is a wonderful placement kicker
