' INDIAN VILLAGE IS FOUND UNDER BAY j - I Exposition Dredger Uncovers Traces of Dwellings 500 or 700 Years Old Beneath the waters of San Francisco bty, close to where the buildings of the Panama-Pacific exposition soon will be erected, scientists of the an thropological department of the Uni versity of California have discovered (traces of an Indian village that ex isted between 500 and 700 years ago. The discovery was made when the dredgers of the exposition company un covered what appears to be a three foot layer of shell and bone that had been dropped by human hands. The dredgers were stopped long enough to permit the scientists to make a cursory examination. Prof. A. L. Kroeber, head of the de partment of anthropology at the Uni versity of California, yesterday an nounced the discovery of the ancient Indian village, which is believed to be the first dwelling place of man on the site where the exposition will be built. The settlement probably was that of the sea lion hunters of the peninsula. The finds have been incorporated In the university's anthropological mu seum at the Affiliated colleges, where they will be of considerable interest in 1915. One interesting point in con nection with the report of Professor Kroeber is that San Francisco has sunk into the ocean 26 inches since the early Indian hunters frequented this district.

An examination today disctosed the fact that the colonel had suffered a fracture of the fourth rib on his right side when John Schrank fired the shot intended to take the bull moose candidate's life in Milwaukee. This development, however, the surgeons said, did not tend .to render the con dition of their patient more serious. Mrs. Roosevelt, who arrived this morning, was on vigil tonight at the bedside of the colonel. The wife de clared for staying at Hie colonel's bedside until he went to sleep for the night. She Was assigned a room ad joining the suite occupied by Roose velt. Bullet Not Poisoned Tests made at Marquette univer sity, Milwaukee, determined posi tively that the bullet with which Roosevelt was wounded had not been poisoned, as was feared. An Infusion from scrapings taken from the re maining bullets In the assassin's re volver was administered to a poison squad of guinea pigs without any reeult. The only danger anticipated fey the ! surg-eons is the possibility of tetanus. j blood poisoning, pneumonia or pleu- Jriey. All these are said to be remote, indeed, in the light of the condition of the patient. • X-Ray examinations were continued during the day in the effort to de scribe more accurately the position of the bullet and to determine finally if the projectile had traveled since It was lodged in the colonels - body. Crisis Several Days Off If at the end of a few days no symp toms of poisoning have appeared Col onel Roosevelt will have passed the critical period and will be on the road to full recovery, according to the at tendants.
