Philadelphia, Sept. 3. By n mnr

operations, Dr. John 1$. Roberts of
this city has given the power of

The Iwy's burns healed bo that his

Dr. Roberts performed many Intri

finally restored Its free movement,
tie had to graft skin from other parts
of his body upon his faco. Finally
the Hp was replaced by surgery.
The last of the operations was

20,000 IN LABOR PARADE.
Pittsburghers Observe Greatest Day In
Several Years Big Plants Closed.
Pittsburgh, Sept. 3. Pittsburgh's
workingmen observed Labor day with
n greater demonstration than over be
fore marked the advent of this day in
the Pittsburgh district For the first
time In n decade there was a monster
street procession In which 20,000
marched from the Labor temple
through the downtown streets.
During the afternoon and In the
evening thre were great gatherings
of workinginen at Kcnnywood and
Westvlew parks.
Bill ITaywood nnd Emll Seldel, So
cialist candidate for vice president,
were the principal speakers.
All tho big Industrial plants In the
Pittsburgh district were closed down.
RAT ATTACKS CHILDREN.
Father Kills Rodent After Little Ones
Were Badly Wounded.
Vllkosbarre, Pa., Sept a-Crlcs of
his two little girls, Mary and Anna,
aged five and seven years, awakened
Arthur Gething at his home In. Nanti
coke. Hushing to their bed bo found
them bleeding from wounds on the
face and arms and fighting desperately
the attacks of a largo rat which was
gnawing their flesh.
The father lifted tho little filrls from
the bed and ran with thom to another
room, closing the door after him. He
returned and with tho aid of a shoo
finally Wiled tho rat but not until it
had a battle with Mm.
The faces of tho Httlo glrte aro chew

ured for life.
Burlington, Vt, Sept 3. Ualllcs in
scores of towns and cities brought to
an end a political campaign for the
governorship of Vermont unprecedent
ed by tho interest aroused nnd of bit
terness engendered. Today n vote ap
proaching 70,000 is prophcslAl, of which
State ' Chuirman of tho Progrcfwlvc
Party C D. Thompson of Brattloboro
claims 20,000. That this is tho high
wator mark is evidenced by tho more
conservative claims of other bull moose
loaders.
Twelve thousand and upward will bo
a virtual victory for the third party
movement nnd to keep this figure down
Is the desperate oudcavor of tho old
guard Itcpubllcans. The- will make
no statement other than the claim that
their ticket will be elected.
For a quarter of a century the aver
age vote In Vermont on n presidential
year has been 03.000. Giving the Pro
hibitionists nnd Soclnlhts 3,000, 00,000
voters aro loft to be divided between
Allen M. Fletcher of Cavendish, Be
pubUcnn; llurhuid B. Uowe of St
Johnsbury, Democrat nnd tho Rev.
Fraster Motzger of Randolph, Progres
sive. Two years ago tho Democratic
nominee for governor pollpd 17,000
vote. Mr. Howe is expected to exceed
this number beennso of tho strong Wil
son sentiment In many parts of the
state
Legislature May Decide.
That the Democrats went to tho polls
today with unbroken ranks la virtually
conceded. If' they succeed In bringing,
tliolr vote up to 20,000 tho 40,000 left
for the regular Republicans and Pro
gressives will likely bo spirt In 25,000'
for Flotcher and 15,000 for Metzger,
and the election will be thrown Into
the legislature.
Vermont has not boon bo shaken up
In years and a surprising vote either
way will not upset the knowing poli
ticians. The Prohibition candidate for
governor Is the master of tho state
grange, Clement F. Smith. Tho Social
ist candidate for governor, Fred. W.
Suitor of Borro, has not made an
active campaign.
Tho alleged tremendous dodging
record of Mr. Fletcher, whose mllllous
have been paraded beforo the voters
by both Progressives nnd Democrats,
Olid the continued stntemonts that he
came to Vermont from Indlannpolls
with tho purposo of becoming gov
ernor, arc the most vulnerable points
In his political nrmor. The rest of his
ticket bids fair to be elected.
It was tho wish of the Republicans
to conduct tho campaign on state
Issues, of which there aro practlcaUy
none that Interest the Progressive
party. Tho latter stand for wide opon,
prlmarlos and it is this that the old
guard fears. Tho rank nnd mo wish'
to have something to say about who is
nominated for tho governorship, which,
they have never had heretofore. Tho
Progressive movement has been gront
ly nldod by the brilliant array of bull1
raooso orators who have covered' the-Btato.

BRITISH TO APPEAL TO HAGUE
Understood Instructions Ar Now 6n

London, Sept 3. It was offlclallun.
nouncod that tho British government
would make a formal demand upon
the United States government for
arbitration of tho British claim that
the Panama canal toll act as passed
recently by the United tntes congress
nnd signed by President Tart, violates',
tho Hay-Pnunoefoto treaty.
Nothing deflnlto Is known here be
yond tho brief official announcement
that the formal demand for arbitra
tion will be made, but It Is believed
that Instructions are already en route
to tho British embassy at Washington
concerning tho situation.
Tho British demand will bo made
under tho arbitration convention of
1008. Great Britain's contention will!
bo that tho question at Issue does not
affect the vital Interests, Independence
or honor of tho United States and that
thorcforo It Is clearly within tho scope
of the 1008 convention, slnco tho mat
ter to bo arbitrated is not nn act of
congress, but an Interpretation of arti
