THE SUN, SUNDAY, AUGUST 11, 1912.
of two dny.i ago from St. Petersburg,
outlining tho Ho.MpnoHS of relationship
ntruck ill' y HusMn nnd .lupan, the
Knox mission, thotiKh devoid of nny
Mplflc diplomatic- burnous. In recorded
M most apt and nprnpon at thin time.
While Secretary Knox cnuld linrdl?
talo udvnntAgn of the occasion of tlto
obsequies of the lute Kmperor to under
take the establishment of a new under
nlundlng with .lapnn, his mission In
expected to tnko on nil Importance
Hlmlliir to that attending the visit of
Prince Katmint to St. I'eteiMliurs.
The Orient even inure than Kurope
will attach i?rcnt Importance to Mr.
Knot's visit to .lapan. Tho.se familial
with the Knr Kant nny It will make a
Kood Impression In the way of an actual
.'ertiotictratlon of the Interest the t'nlted
States hns In that part of the world.
Trip I. unn In View.
Those close to Mr. Knox have Ions
known that he looked forward to n
visit to Japan and possibly China.
When Haroii I'clilda, fonnerly Am
bassador to the fulled States from
Japan, said farewell to Sir. Knox upon
leovInK for Japan last winter he' re
peated an Invitation he had often made
nrpInK the Secretary to visit that
country.
The mission of Secretary Knox to
t'entrnl America made It Impossible
last sprlnc and upon Mr. Knox's re
turn the project was practlcully aban
doned, nt least until the elections should
be over.
The recent death of the Kmperor and
the fact that his funeral Is to be made
an elaborate ceremonial to which the
Powers have been Invited to send rep
resentatives provided an occasion
upon which Mr. Knox could most fit
finely make the projected trip.
Mr. Tnft himself, however, was the
first to siiRKcst that the Secretary nt
tend the funeral of Mutsuhtto, Just as
It was his Idea that Mr. Knox vs.lt the
lepubllcH of Central America and the
t'nrrlbcau last winter.
Mr. Taft as Secretary of War and
fJnveinor of the Philippines had vlsiti-d
the Kmperor nnd discussed with him
Intimately the common Interests nnd
nlso the Issues between .lupin nnd the
I'nited States. The two men formed
for each other the strongest reward
nd each entertained a real llklne for
the other.
This relationship has lepeatedly made
Itself felt In the Taft Administration
In Its conduct of the affairs of this
Government with Japan. The Knox
mission will early establish cloe and
personal relations with the new Km
peror, Toshlhtto.
At the Japanese Kmbassy this after
noon it w.is stated that the act of
President Tnft In sending the Secretary
of State as his personal rcprcscntatix
nt the obsequies of the Into Kmperor
would be much appreciated by the Gov
ernment and the people of Japan, nnd
gratification was exprcsed that the
President had taken such action.
CONFESSlfREVEALS
DETROIT GRAFT PLOT

Hares Details. '
Dett.oit. Auk. I0. Eddie Schreirer,
the deposed secretary of the Common
Council committee, has turned State's
evidence nnd divulged to Prosecutor
Sherhcrd full dotmN of grafting opera
tions in the Detroit Common Council cov
ering n period of year-", it was announced
to-day.
This confession, which covers lifty-two
paget of typewritten copy, involves many
Councilinen and was tho direct cau-e of
the wholesale arrt-ts on Kridiy. includ
ing the iKirrp.it of sevral Aldermen who
already had W-cii under lioml and cited
for tn.il ns a ivsulr of the raid m.'i(h by
Operative llrentmn of the Hurnw agency
Schroiter'rt confession was brought
about through Influential friends who ie
mained cIohm to him from the time he
was rclea.-d on bonds two weeks ago.
His first ';o!ifesdion to lii-ennnn and Burns
nfter t'.e trap hud been sorting in the
initial chapter of the Wnlxit-h deal, which
coMB'sion ho repudiated, was wholly
confirmed In his later statement.
His confehsion ennnot with propriety
lie published now, it was taid at the Prose,
-uior's office, but it will b n big factor
in the trials of the. eightwn accused Coun
fllmen. 'that tho Aldermen arrested for alleged
complicity in tho City Hall grafting will
wai m police court examination and take
their cases direct to tho Hecorder's Court
was the rumor to-day.
It is said there is a tentative agreement
between Prosecutor Shepherd and at
torneys for the accused men to allow for
tho procedure and in case tho police
court proceeding" ar waived, the cases
win be di-ipo.-ed of In record time.
Prosecutor Shepherd has sent, a hurry
cail to William J. Hums, tho Pro-te"utor
desiring to confer with tho chief of tho
Murns Defective Agency on imiHirtant
matters that have been uncovered in tho
graft investigation.
That thorifentlwholesalearrestaare only
the beginning of tho expose which has
nhakeu Detroit was tho statement of
Prolocutor Sheiherd.
"The, work will be taken up again to
night," said tho Prosecutor. I am going
lo stick right to this unless I am shot or
die. If I get too sick to work 1 will hire
porno lawyer in my place and he will be a
cracking good one, too."
There has been a suspicion' that some of
the Aldermen to clear themselves have
told what they know of tributes collected
by themselves and their fellows. This
wan confirmed bv the Prosecutor.
"Have you visited any of tho Aldermen
Jn this matter? lie was asK.fi
I have, he replied, nut which ones
or how many I cannot state. .Nor can I
make nubile what they have told me.
It is rumored that it was not until after
.Secretary nchreiter had neen voteit out
,r his luisition bv the Aldermen last Tues
day that ho gave tho information to tho
Prosecutor that resulted in the arrests
yesterday.

Tiic reports received at the umpire's
camp to-night indicate that the big job
ot moving some thousands of soldiers
from New York into another State was
handled without a hitch by l.ieut.-Col.
A !;. Townsend, Chief Quartermaster
of tho National Guard, and there was a
lot of praie for him
He was up before davlight in New York
and buy at the foot of East Twenty
second street, where the four regitnen'if
of the First Brigade were loaded into
three boats nnd where Lieut. -Col. Cor
nelius Vnnderbilt ran hastily about seeing
that everything was all right. My noon
time li e available milit'n of New York
city. Ii,0 0 fighting men, 2.00) horses. 200
wagons and twenty fixed guns, had been
started into Connecticut.
It was an army mule of course that
delayed the departure, of the Seventh
Regiment, and at their camp near New
Haven to-night tho members of that or
ganization were chuckling over tho inci
dent and cursing tho mule. At Pier
22, hast River, the mule, which cost SKiO,
decided upon suicide and calmly hopped
overboard. The animal became wedged
in between the naddlo wheel and the
hull uf thi boat that was to toko it to tho
Horrors or war. George M White of 101
llleecker street was the hero who went
in and hoisted out the animal after Ho
meric labors. He got 12 for tho deed and
slid cruel things about the departing
army
i he only serious accident of tho day
was reported from Bethel, where Charles
Miilbns, color hearer of Buttery C of the
Second Field Artillery of tho Now York
National Guard, from Binghamton. was
thrown from his horse while, detraining.
His skull was fractured He was taken'
to tho hospital in Uinbury, where it la
said ho will die
There was little complaint from the
Twolfth and Sixty-ninth regiments land
ing at New Haven to-day over the fact
that they made the trip up tho Sound
in freighters while tho Seventh and
Sovonty-first came up on the more luxur
ious Richard Peck. The first two regi
ments felt a little eeved because they
had to toko a slower way of getting to
Now Haven, but thev did not mlnH tiir
neepmmodations on the way, they said,
,ow iiaveii. uccusiuuiod io any and all
sorts of crowds, didn't seem to be much
oicilcd by tho arrival of the R forces.
I hey were tho invaders, to be sure, nnd
could hardly expect a cheerful greeting
Bridgeport, on the other hand, roused
itself and turned out to watch the khaki
uniforms and blue hat bands of the Armv
of Defence go by. It didn t take the I
tnwnsrnii; long to aisnnguisn the militia i
from the regulars. The former almost
invariably limped. There are probably
more new shoes shuffling across Bridge
port iMivetuentH than this town lias seen
in many moons.
All to-day the roads to Stratford and
the umpires' camp were thick with tho
dust of antos from Bridgeport and to
night their horns aro breaking tho accus
tomed peace of the countryside.
To-morrow, however, will bo a big day
for the visitors. The troops have, their
time free savo for the ordinary camp
routine and the morning's religious ser
vices, when chaplains preach from pulpits
of piled drums.
There are three officers wearing uni
forms of foreign armies whoso presence
in the camp aroused much Interest. They
are Col. Morton A Gage of Great Britain,
( ol Baron do Bode of Russia and Major
Jose A vales of Mexico. Lieut. Walter

1'iTTsiit'Ro, Aug. 10. Ten thousand
people participated In a riot at Home

where the Socialists, were having a
demonstration to-nlghl. Fifty mounted
policemen and as nlany patrolmen on

ing continued for more than an hour.
Scores were clubbed by the police and
many rioters were arrested. Heads
and arms were broken by the blows of

prisoner away.
Another hpeaker yelled at the" crowd
not to permit "the Cossncks" to deny

CURE DEFORMED FEET
Tissue Introduced From Body
of Child Dead Soon After
Birth.
Dr. Fred H, Albee, a surgeon at the
Post Graduate Hospital, confirmed laid
night the report that ho had success
fully performed on a two-year-old boy
the operation of cutting ligaments In
the fecC and transplanting bones from
other children for tho cure of club feet
This surgical operation Is one of the
most startling that has been performed
In recent years.
Five weeks ago a boy born with de
formed feet waa brought to the Post
Graduate Hospital from Waterbury,
Conn. 'The usual method of curing the
defect known as club feet and which Is
caused by nn Insufficient number of
bones Is to cut the ligaments nnd by the
use of braces straighten tho deformed
members. The process Is one of long
duration and Is not always successful.
Dr. Albcc, who Is tho head of the
department of orthpctdlc surgery at
Cornell and at the University of Ver
mont, decided to try a new method. He
determined that he must have bones
from other children and that they must
be In healthy condition. Uellevue Hos
pital was appealed to, and In the course
of a week waa able to supply the bodies
of two Infants that had died of strangu
lation at birth. From one was taken a
thigh bone and from another an arm
bone. They were carefully preserved
and the child with the maimed feet was
prepared for the operation.
Then Dr. Albee made Incisions in the
feet and legs of the crippled child and
transplanted the bones of the healthy
children. The feet of the patient were
set In plaster casts and the natural
process of growth caused the new bones
to knit with those of the child. Dr.
Albee said last night that the opera
tion been successful and It appears
thitt the child will soon be able to walk
normally.
It Is said that bone transplantation
has been often made, but never for this
particular deformity. Dr. Albee him
self has experimented a great deal In
transplanting n bone from one part of
tho body to another for the correction
of certata deformities or weaknesses.
His experience along these lines fitted
him peculiarly for the delicate opera
tion which he performed at the Post
Graduate Hospital.
The problem was as much concerned
with the knitting of the bones as with
trnnsplnllng them. Great precautions
were taken to prevent the little patient
from making the slightest movement
that might disturb the casts that held
the bones In place. These casts were
taken off n week ago and the child In
now pronounced to be absolutely cured.
Much Interest Is taken In the problem of
his learning to walk. His crippled feet
made that Impossible before,
The operation wan watched by many
prominent surgeons nnd they are said
to have been greatly Impressed with the
feat and with Its meaning to the surgl
Jfofld. . . .
OR. ELIOT SEES NO HOPE

Returns to Boston and Discusses
Observations on World

URGES CHECK ON ALIENS
Would Restrict Immigration of
Males Takes Up Limit
on Navies.
Boston, Aug. 10. After an absence of
nine months and one week spent In tour
ing the world as a peace envoy for the
Carnegie Peace Foundation, of which he
Is a trustee, Charles W. Eliot, the ven
erable president emeritus of Harvard
University, returned to this city this
afternoon.
With him were Mrs. Eliot, his grand
daughter. Miss Ruth Kllot. and his sec
retary, Roger Pierce, son of Dr. M. V.
Pierce of Milton, who mado the tour
with him. It was during tho Illness of
Dr. Eliot at Ceylon, where ho underwent
an operation for appendicitis, that
young Pierce fell In love with Miss Ruth
Eliot, proposed and was accepted.
The engagement was announced In
May following a wire Miss Eliot sent
her mother, who was touring in Europe.
Though a date has not been set as yet
the marriage will take place in the fall
and at the pleasure of Mrs. Eliot, who Is
at her home In IJrookllne.
Dr. Eliot showed no traces of the Ill
ness which for a time caused his
frie.ids In the United States no end of
woniment. He was perhaps a trifle
sllmr.ier than when he went away, but
his stp was an springy and clastic and
his skin browned from exposure to the
sun In the tropical countries he visited.
The party left the train at the Back
Bay station and were Immediately
driven to the homo of Dr. Eliot's sister
In IJrookllne. where he will spend a few
days before going to his summer home
at Mount Desert, Me. To-night he met
a party of newspaper men at the home
of his sinter, Mrs. Guild, and for an
hour talked to them most entertain
ingly of the countries he had visited
and of his observations.
"The great problem of the world at
the present time," said Dr. Eliot, "Is
immigration. In my report to the Car
negie Peace Foundation I shall recom
mend that Immigration of males from
any one country be restricted to not
more than 5 per cent, more males than
females. This Is dono In the Interest
of morality and In the Interest of the
Immigrants themselves. At present the

The doctor thought for n moment

"I connot see any hope." he tlll.
