Kniest K. < milter, superintendent of
?the Society of Prevention of Cruelty t..
I (hildren, 'said: "Who should say this
Chicago baby would not have become a
n?..lui. aven B happy, member of the
community. I am for 'letting live'."
I "I i!o not believe any doctor ha? a
right to refuse ar. operation to save
life," sold the Rev. Dr. S. Parkes <'ad?
man. "It :* to?, vast a power, that of
, determining whether B defective child;
j should be saved or not, to be given to
! any individonl choice."
Professor Munro Smith, of the Co?
lombie University Lew School, said:
, "Nobody knows what the child might
have become. It might have been pos
sibls to entirely cure him. The gen- '
era! rule that every effort to save life
; should be made shoulsl he ndherr.l to. :
To establish a precedent as in this case :
would open up dangers to society and ?
put too much power in the hands of
one man."
Defective Baby's Death
Desirable, Women Say
Women were foremost yesterday in
applauding the attitude of Dr. H. J.
Haiaelden, the Chicago surgeon, who
j preferred to let a baby die for lack of i
! an operation rather than live with
SVl i y prospect of becoming hspslsssly
defective, mentally and morally.
?':' tight ?Jjpominent women who were
interviewed only three were emphati*
! ?ally oppoaed to permitting th.- child to
I die in such circumstances.
"I am amazeil that there should be
i more than one point of view." declared
i Ivouise Closser Hale, author and BCt*
i rOSS, of 187 West 110th Street. "It
seems t>? me r. noble thing on the par'
ef the physician who decline.I to .?ave
such ;, !if>" as that of the child would
inevitably i.e. and of the baby's mother,
who concurred in his opinion."
Dv Am.a Shaw, suffrage leader, in?
sisted that a child's life should he
saved a* any cost to its family or to
the community.
"The poor little baby had a right to
our hope and protection." she added.
"1 think that the operation for saving ',
this child's life should have been per?
formed even if the infant was con
genitallv defective."
Beatrice Forbes Robertson Hale, for*
mer actress, ?uffragist ami mother of
two-year-old twins, said: "It is very ?
sad for the community that such chil?
dren should be permitted to grow up,
but I hardly see how any doctor could
venture to a. sun.e such a responsibility, ,
It ?n a aUSStion that demands a great,
den] of thought."
Mrs. Mary Ware Dennett, of 350 West
Pifty-flfth Street, prominent among
clubwomen, said: "I think the physi
eion has done a big, humanitarian
thing! Since then- is no WUV of curing
defectives at the present time, I don't
see how any one can fairly criticise Dr.
Haiaelden, The position he has taken
n the bravest, frankest and most hon?
est tiling he could have done."
Dr. Elizabeth Hamilton-Muncie, of
Brooklyn, declared she considered the
Chicago sUrgeon entirely right in de?
clining to perform an operation that
would result in unhappiness to the
child, its family and the entire com
rniiity.
"If the baby were my own. and I were |
convinced beyond doubt that it could
s.? '.ei be normal, I should do as they
.lui." said Dr. Muncie.
Mrs. Vladimir .Simkhovitch, head of
Greenwich llou-e. was opposed to the
attitude of Dr. Haiselden, regarding it
a.? a dangerous precedent.
"Individual doctors ought not to ?
have tin- power to end life at their
own discretion," she said. "It would be
infinitely better to have some kind of a
community board to decide such ques- ?
tiOIlv"
Miss Lillian I). Wald, head of the
Henry Street Settlement, approved of I
not taking extraordinary measures to .
prolong life iti the case of the hope-:
lesly mentally defective, but thought it
wa practically impossible for a doctor
!?? make an adei-uate diagnosis of a
baby's mind.
Inez Milholland Boissevain, of 71
Broadway, suffragist and lawyer, said:
"The child should be put out of the'
?ray before consciousne?? seta in. This
its case, of course, that every point
known to medical science has been tried
in vain, if it can be moved that the
child is incurable, I believe thai it
should not he allowed to live."
Ri'Kht to Let Baby Die, I
Says Medico Legal Society
Thai Dr. II. .1. Hniaelden was right in
ng to operate upon a defective
baby t?. SSVI its life was the tlecv.on

meeting of the Medico-Legal Society'
h?.'?l ;.' the Waldorf-Astoria, with ('.?ark

ition, Introduced by ???car J.
Smith, was unanimously passed i
"Resolved, That the Chicago phy-i
<i,in is te i?.- recommended for his hu
BCtion ti allowing an imbecile i
child to die rather than make an effort I
to prolong its life."
Dr. Bill said that any one who criti- I
eiaad the action of I'r. Haiselden could
not !?? swore ef ?the east deal of medi?
cal pr?c?dant behind him. and smpha
?/..,| .v. ft,.-* that the physician was

Ch.cago. Nov. 17.?In support of her contention that defectives
??houll be permitted to live. Jane Addams. head of Hull House, gives
out this list of famous persons who were afflicted with infirmities at
birth:
Helen Keller?She was not born with infirmities, but they came
soon afterwards. Decpite blindness, deafness and loss of power of
speech, she refused to be discouraged. She is an accomplished woman
to-day?a benefit to the world.
John Milton, one of the two greatest English poets?Wrote
"Paradise Lost." though he was blind.
Lord Byron?Born clubfooted, but he became one of the sweetest
singers of English verse, a social favorite, a soldier of fortune and a
man to whom the world must ever pay tribute.
De Quincey?Master of English. Is generally credited with having
been what scientists term to-day a "mental defective."
Robert Louis Stevenson?Author of "Treasure Island," was
tubercular from early life. He was forced to fight daily to keep the
life spark burning, yet he wrote some of the masterpieces of American
literature.
Napoleon?According to the modern physician, probably went
through life without thyroid glands. He was an undersized sickly
boy and man, yet he rose from a poor Corsican to be Emperor of
France, world's greatest military strategist, conqueror of Europe and
framer of the still living Napoleonic Code.
Emneror William of Germany?Leading figure in the European
war. Has fought ill health from earliest life. One of his arms has
been withered from babyhood, yet with but one good arm the Kaiser
does many things to-day that the ordinary man with two arms can?
not do.
Marshall P. Wilder?Made king and pauper laugh, even though a
physical dwarf. He taught himself to be so entertaining that the
world forgot his deformities, and he died known as one of the world's
greatest comedians.
Demosthenes?Greatest of Greek orators, was born tongue-tied.
Talleyrand?French diplomatist, was born a cripple. It was he
who said: "Only fools and women write letters."
Peter Stuyvesar.t?Early Dutch Governor of New York and
founder of the present Stuyvesant family in America, had but one
good leg. This did not deter him from becoming a great leader.
Also he was one of the best bowlers of his day.
Dr. Charles Proteus Steinmetz?Wizard of the General Electric
Company and a rival ior fame of Thomas A. Edison, has suffered from
physical infirmities from babyhood.

Mis.? Jane Addam?, of Hull House,
who last night bitterly denounced Dr
Haiselden for his stand, said to-day de?
fectives were not necessarily a burden
to society, and in many cases of per?
sons living as well as dead they had
been among the world's greatest men
and women. She named these persons
to show that a physician or a hospital
board has not the right to assume the
nrerogativ. to say that any person shall
be killed, but is required by the highest
moral law to save every life that possi?
bly can be saved.
Dr. Haiselden is a bachelor, but he
ha? not let that interfere with a strik?
ing proof that he is a man of intensely
human? sentiments. He has adopted
two girl babies from the German-Amer
ican Hospital, where he is the chief of
staff, after they had been abandoned by
their parents. One of the girls is four
years old and is unusually bright. The
i other Is a mite, born only m few months
ago. Of course, the babies receive the
best of care at the physician's home,
under the direction of nurses of the
hospital.
Allen and Anna Bollinger live at 2013
Fletcher Street. The father is fore?
man of the repair department in the j
Lincoln Avenue barns of the Chicago
surface lines.
Four mothers, patients at the Ger?
man-American Hospital, agreed with Dr.
Haiselden that it was proper to let the
child die.
Play to Uphold Chicago Doctor.
In support of Dr. H. J, Haiselden, of
Chicago, who refused to save the life
of a defective child, "The Medical Re-!
view of Reviews" announced yesterday
that It would produce rleulah Poynter's
play, "The I'nborn," in Chicago next
Monday. Officials of the publication
have been startled by the parallel of
the Haiselden action to the plot of the
play, and will also produce the drama,
which deals with the limitation of off
spring in this city the following week,
probably at the Maxiue Elliott The?
atre.
EUGENIA KELLY

: Eugenia Kelh's name first appeared
' in the newspapers on Ma" 23, when her
I mother, Mrs. Helen M. Kelly, had hsr
! brought mio Yortvtlle court as an in
i corrigible child. In her complaint she
' -lieged that her daughter heiress to
II.,000, and a granddaughter of the

'???? neceeaory. Released on
bait, Miss Eugenia flc.l to the home of
Star. Mrs. Ralph Hill Thomas, at
Sands l'oint, Long Island, where she
' remained in sei at en for severo! days.
Her arrest was the signal for a great
? upheaval in Gotham's tango zone. De
I tectives employed by Mr?. Kelly al
! leged tha' Eugenia had been victimized
, by dancers, who stole her jewelry and
?operated h?.r from large sums of
money.
The names of Al Davis and Dickey
Warner were mentioned as the girl's
constant associates. It was understood
that Bonnie Glass, a dancing partner of
Dnvie, had ?given Mrs. Kelly the infor?

Three .lavs later after many confer?
ences between lawyers and friends
ther? was a reconciliation scene in the
Yerkville Court. Eugenia said that
she would go back home to her moth?
er's apartment, at 116 East Sixty-thinl
Street. Al Davis had disappeared. Mrs.
Kelly announced that she and her
daughter would take a -trip through
Parama as ?oon as they had recovered
from the strain of the previous few
days.

that AI Davis was stay.ng at the same
island, and it was on t nia date that
Miss Kelly declared: "I'm going to
t marry Al Davis." Mrs. Aimee Davis,
j wife of Davis, had brought suit for a
i divorce in May.
The decree making tinal the divorce

When the Kelly case was in the pub

attorney for Mrs. Kelly, saiil that even
though Eugenia should marry Davis,
