Nov. 19. -"Morally and ethically, a surgeon is fully within his rights In refusing to perform an opera? tion which his conscience will not sanc? tion." This dsclaration in the finding of the jury of leading physicians and ?urgeoni who investigated the death of the bahy of Mr. and Mrs. Allen BolHnper la accepted as exonerating Dr. H. I. Haiselden of charges on which an Indictment might be based as a result of his refusal to perform sn operation. The jury, however. found that surgery might have saved the infant's life, and that there was no evidence that the child would have become morally or mentally defective. In their verdict, reached to-night after an exhausti?e examination of Dr. Haiselden in which he stoutly main? tained that what he did waa right, the juor? ?ay: Rab> Might Ha?e Been Normal.

The verdict. which describes minutely, and In technical lanj-iiHi-e, the condition in which the body w is found, doer- not accept the diagnosis of Dr. Ha.selden without question.

Her in-laws were absolutely de-e-lighted to see her, and welcomed her more profusely than Al's seven wolfhounds. The couple took a long walk in the country, and returned to their hotel about 7 o'clock. Mrs. Davis did not see her mother again, or communicate with her. Mrs. Kelly refused to talk. Mr. and Mr?.

GIRL BLOCKS ART DEALER'S LANDING His "Niece" or "Secretary" Said To Be Claimed by Angry Husband in Italy. Hard-hearted immigration officials, 1 unappreciative of the cause of tru?' art, ' will give the plans of one of its devo ' t*>cs a severe jolt unless Secretar?, of Labor Wilson interferes in the ?ass "t" Professor Elis Yolpi. Tin- proies-or. a wealtkj ;.rt dealer of Florence, arrived ' on the Duca degli Abruizi Wednesday evening with two original paintings b\ Titian, valued at $600,006, some other works of art, and a pretty Italian girl, Lisetta Morosino, who was understood on shipboard to be his niece. Volpi and his companion have been kept at Ellis Island ever since the boat docked, although their detention was kept secret until yesterilay. It seem? to be ail the young woman's fault. Immigration officials sanl >??? t?r?luy that the art dealer told the spe j cial board of inquiry at Ellis Island i that Miss Morosino was hi? Secretary und ?lui not claim her for a niece. Wh?n examined alone the girl failed to measure up to the standards of a sec? retary. This did not surprise the officials, tfiev said, birause before the Duca degli Abruz/.i reached New York they had re ?-???ved information from an angiy Ital? ian husband that the young woman is the mother of a six-yeir-old boy in Italy. Ths message, it wa? said, was the cause of the investigation. Volpi i? sixty year? old and numbered among ! hi? patrons the late J. I'. Morgan. The board ordered him deported with his companion.

For the next seventeen year? unie.,? a few statistics of the local weather bureau^are upset November 19, 1916, is likely to be remembered by New York City and suburbs as the "Day of tho Big Wind." Not since December I. IMS, another red letter day in the weather man's records, has such a storm whipped out of the east ?? that which turned the town topsy-turvy yesterday. Although the near hurricane dropped la the afternoon from its maximum of '1 miles an hour to the comparatively leisurely rrte of 11 miles, storm sig? nals were stili flying along the ma?-; and craft of all kinds were scurrying lor shelter. With the lull came the first rhr.'i-o to check up the havoc left in the wake of the big wind. One man. whisk.-.1 from a scaffold on the old Victoria Theatre, lies dead in Bellevue. An other victim, a six-year-old girl who clung to the runaway family umbrella until it carried her in front of a street? car, was dying in St. Mary's Hospital, Brooklyn. Two men were killed in tha suburbs because their umbrellas pre? vented them from dodging automobiles. Twenty-six additional sufferers from the storm, cut by flying glass or their limb? broken by falls, were distributed among other hospitals. And there were count? less others who nur.-ied cuts and bruises in their homes. The man who met death in the citv, was Antonio Gianolaio, a laborer, of 2322 First Avenue. He died in the hospital a couple of hours after the wind tore him from his scaffold. Roso Raplingham, of 112 Hull Street, flrook lyn, was the girl carried under the car by the umbr.-lls.

Incidentally, the British governm had agreed ?vith the Federa' R. ie Hoard to support the cotton market fore announcement ?vas made of placing of cotton on the absoluto c 'raband list. This assurance f 'r.nimti ?o Secretary of the Treasv MeAdoe severe! days before he mi hia remarkable announcement that would deposit $30,000,000 of (Jail States Treasury funds in the th Southern reserve batiks for loans cotton at a low rate of interest. Prior to this, and afterward, the 1 -serve Board bent every energy to ducc the Southern planters to hi their cotton for better prices, havi the absolute knowledge that Gr' Britain woum support the market the contraband declaration tended force it down, and believing that i Germsn government also would p chase cotton. German? Helped Britain. The motives of the two govemmei in buying cotton were curiously diff 1 ent, and in making the purchases ; ' German government not onlv play into the hands of the cotton growi and the Reserve Board, but helped accomplisii the end of the British gt ernment. This was merely to suppe the cotton market and to avoid ang? ing the Southern states and thus cau a pressure for an embargo on arm? retaliation for the interference ?vi trade. Arrangement* \?ere made by t Britiah government to -upport the ci. ton market before the contrabai declaration. The British were extrem ly anxious to make cotton contrabai to prevent it from reaching German bu? thsy were just as anxious not stir up antagonism which would resu in a fight in Congress by Southern Se ators and Representatives lor an er hargti.

The Knglish ?Ten advised by the R serve Board to support the cotton ma ket, not in New York, where their pu chases would have to be tremendous : volume to have a moral effect, but i Liverpool and New Orleans. The ai ?ice of the Reserve Board was take not only on this but also in the actu wording of the embargo dec'.aratio Bad on the time at which It was mat public. Th i - was on a Saturday aftrrnoo after the market closed. When th Liverpool market opened the fo'.lo'.vin Monday morning brokers renresentin the British government houglit all co ton offered at the closing nrices of Sa' ?irday and forced the price up just little. This all happening before dayligh had reached Ne?v York, the New Yor cotton brokers discovered before hegiti ning their trading that, instead of cot ton going down on the contraban declaration, it had actually goti" ui i 'ni BS they were not inclined to be a bearish.

New Orleans is not aif important cot ton market from the point of view o size of transactions, but it is very im portant from a sentimental vie?vpoint ii- H is taken by Ve?v York cottot speculators to rsaset the attitude <> the South. So this upward nur. i-nion in New Orleans had a distinctly bullisl effect on the New York market. The British representatives had beer advised by the members of the Keservi Board to put the price up two cents ? pound.

After the movement be gan it did not stop at eight cent?, but climbed to IS, to the great astonish? ment of the British, ?vho had to buy a total of only 'JTo.OOO bales during the entire movement. The reason for this whs that under the direction of Geheimrat Albert, who has come into ?lew through the investigation of the German propaganda, the Germans he gan buying cotton as soon as they de? tected the advance in price. Consultation between one of the members of thu Bosorve Board and Dr. Albert had caused this, the Reserve Board member utilizing the German be? lief thai the war would be over in January to bring about the result.

' B?LGARS DRIVE SERBS NEARER GREEK LINE ^ ? ? . ? , Big: Battle Expected South of Monastir with British Troops. EARL KITCHENER GOES TO ATHENS British War Secretary at Sal?nica Confers with General Sarrail. (St Cab!? to Th? *.-?-? ) London, Nov. 10.-With the fall of Monastir, which seem? to be defi? nitely confirmed to-day by a dis? patch to the Rome "Tribuna" from Athena, the attitude, of the Greek government toward the. retreating Serbs, now nearing the border, be? come*? the outstanding feature of the Balkan situation. To consider this question, Lord Kitchener, who arrived at Sal?nica to-day, conferred with General Sar? rail, the French commander in chief it: the Orient, and with General Monro. Immediately after the con? ference the British War Secretary left without debarking, and a Sal?n? ica report puts his next destination as Athens.

The "Epoca" asks why the Rumanian government takes no action in the matter. Serbs' Position desperate. The position of the Serbs con? tinues to grow more dsperate, und Berlin to-day claims thai capture of 6,000 from the retreating northern army, while the Bulgarians are pushing tasa southern H-ninaiit tow? ard the i.reek frontier. It is thought possible that the ?Serbians will make a stand on tha historic plain of Kossovo, east of th? Montenegrin frontier, where over five hundred years ago they lost their independence to Turkey. They must either do this or retire into the ? mountain?, of Montenegro or North? ern Albania, whore a guerilla war? fare can be kept up for months, or an Italian army can come to their rescue. Around Monastir indications srs that a big battle will develop Ib the next few ilays, as British troop? seme time ago took up positions just south of the eity. The Serbs re? treating in this vicinity are also re. ported to number about 150,000, against the ('?0,000 pursuing Bui. gars. Pear I'prlslng at Monaalir.

To the east, in the extreme southern portion of the mountain kingdom, the Bulgarians have been on the offensive against the French in the vicinity of .Strumnitza, but, according to Paris, they ??ere repulsed with heavy casual? ties. Nothing is known of the opera? tions of the British in the southern re? gion against the Bulgarians. The Rome "Corriere della Sera" draws attention to the almost completo disappearance of (?reek shipping from Italian ports, which it considers omi? nous. The ?ame journal publishes statistics of German corruption in Rumania, where Germany spent on the press alone 22,000,000 francs, and is said to have offered one journalist a fee of 50,000 francs and a salary of 3,000 francs monthly to address public meet? ing?).
