GRAFTS FROG SKIN ON HAND
V'anaaal Experiment Prove m Com
plete laeeess la Hospital
at Ann Arbor,
ANN ARBOR. Mich.. July . The un
usual experlmer . of grafting frogskin on
the hand of a patient has been successfully
accomplished at the Homeopathy hospital
of the Michigan university by Surgeon
Westfall.
Sergent white, a farmer of Adrian, had
hi hand caught In a sender and lost soma
twenty Inches of skin on the palm and
back of his hand.
At first skin from the patient's leg wa
transplanted on the hand, but the operation
was slow and painful. Dr. Westfall then
secured a large live frog, and, after de
stroying Its brain, thoroughly cleaned .the
skin, sliced the white skin off the belly and
placed the particles on the area to be cov
ered and covered it with very thin rubber
tissue surrounded with dressing moistened
with a common salt solution. After ninety-
six hours th whole dressing was removed.
The frogskin grafts had adhered, the
granulation In the surface of the raw hand
had penetrated up through the frogskin
and projected beyond the surface of the lat
ter so that the whole surface appeared red.
The cells in the frogskin had begun to
grow and covered the whole surface of the
wound. Mr. White expects to leave th
hospital In ten days with his hand com
pletely healed.

WESTERN LEAGUE CONFERENCE
Delay In Arrive! of Some of Magnates
Causes Little to Be Done
In Evening;.
The meeting of the Western league mag
nates last night failed to materialize, as
St. Joseph was not represented and Burns
of Colorado Springs, Packard of Denver
and President Sexton did not arrive until
late In the evening. Nevertheless a lengthy
conference was held at the Paxton by the
magnates and several conclusions were
practically reached. As an outcome of the
conference it is almost certain that Omaha
will be strengthened considerably, as will
also Des Moines, which is sadly In need of
another good outfielder.
The persiHteut rumor that the Kansas
Citv and Milwaukee teams would be re
moved to Pueblo and Bioux City was ab-
i k ,h mJntJ r.A h
Fre8ldnt 8exton. who declared that the
matter would not be brounht uo at the
meeting at all bo far as he knew. It Is
probable that the schedule will be length
ened a week or so in order that the lurge
number of postponed games, due to ths
wet weather and the floods, can be played
off and no team complain that it might
have had the pennant If all of its scheduled
games had been played. Two protested
games will also be decided today at the
meeting.
President exton said, after the confer
ence last night: "There will be no change
In the league In any way. Omaha will be
strengthened ss It is a good base ball town
end the people are deserving of a good
team. It is sometimes difficult to get tho
managers to give up any of their good
men. Dut .they will have to do so If ne
cessary to help out some of the weaker
teams. Tonight's conference had no bear
ing on the decisions of tomorrow's meet
ing, but some things are certain anyhow.
Mr. Shirley, secretary of the St. Joseph
team, will be here in the morning, and we
can meet with a full attendance then."
Manager Rourke of the local team has
secured a new pitcner in canarr ot me
St. Louis National, and he will be In
today to take his place with the locals at
once.
