Peculiar Story Put in Circulat-
ion as the Result of Meeting
of Medical Association '

A very strange and interesting story
is getting noised abroad regarding the
doings of the Norwalk Medical Asso»
ciatlon at. its meeting on Monday night
at. the residence ofDr. J. C. Dumor-
tier, and the rumor has it that after a
"fighting word" had been passed. one
of the. physicians to whom It was ad
dressed knocked the speaker down and
there would have been a very lively
confest had not the other doctors step-
ped in and pllt a stop to it. it was
also Included ill the rulnor that seve-
ral members of the society intended to
withdraw from membership on ac-
count of the fracas. The alleged fight
storied over an alleged charge that
one of the physicians had “cut rates."

When the physician who wus'ulloged
to have been knocked down ulna asked
about it. he denied it absolutely and
said that the story was without the
least foundation in fact.

Dr. A. H. Baldwin. when asked re-
garding it, said: “Why everything
was lovelyl at the meeting. There was
no acrimonious discussion of any kind
and no trouble at all exists in the as
sociatlon that l have been able to dis-
cover."

Dr. W. B. Bean stated that he did
not stay through the entire meeting.
but lhui until he was called away to or
tend a pullout. everything was excceo
Ingly pleasant.

Dr. R. M. Wolfe stated that there
was absolutely no truth in the report.
and that he could not account for such
a wild dream as the author must have
had.

Dr. J. C. Dllmortier absolutely de-
nlcd the rumor and said: “It was one
of the most cordial meetings which the
association has had since the inception
and that no subject hail been brought
up at the meeting which might have
led to a controversy.”

Several other physicians also denied
thewild rumor and how it could have
started is a puzzle to them. They ex-
pressed themselves as feeling very
sorry that such a story could have got»
ten abroad.

Dr. H. C. Sharer also stated that the
creating was a very pleasant and her-4
munlous one. '

ARRIVES WITH PULP

Ten Days Delay in the Trip from
St. George, N. 8., But Captain
Perry Says Winds Caused It

The outclals of th%,,, George Pulp

and Paper Company, of Norwalk, were
made happy this morning by the ar-
rival in the upper harbor of the
schooner Henry May, from St. George,
New Brunswick, with a cargo of sul-
phite.

The May should have arrived here
nearly ten days ago. but Captain Por-
ry slated today‘that he had been delay-
ed by head winds. General all around
rough weather has also interfered with
the vessel's passage.

The St. George plant in Norwalk
ran out of sulphite several days ago
and because of the lack of this neces-
sary article the mill has been shut
dowu for about a week. it did not
take long to get the load started off the
May when she got here.

A truck was in waiting on the dock
and as soon as her hawscrs were fas-
tened to the dock splles, the unloading
operation begun. Time is very prec-
ious with the St. George Company,
which runs its plant. twenty-four hours
a day six days of the week.

Captain Perry, of the May, is a very
capable sailor and those who know
him did not share the belief of some
that the vessel had met. with some ill
fate.

The schooner Francis Goodnow also
arrived this morning with a cargo of
coal consigned to the St. George Com-
pany. The dredge Capital Cityeonly
completed the work of digging in
front. of the company's dock yesterday.
One of the new improvements is a big
coal pocket.
