such a plan is put into practice by the

you would have 7,000.000 left. The

at the close of the war. Most of tlie

though there is nothing to indicate

When Chief Daly was asked about

asked to he sent to some place where
he could rest up and recuperate. (Japt.
Daly described him as an elderly man.
perhaps (10 years old, and tlie chief’s
impression was that he was not a
sick man but that he was broken down
and neqded to rest up. In reply to
an inquiry why lie had not sent
Dougherty to the Columbia hospital,
the chief said tlirt lie did not think
Dougherty, was ill enough for tlikt,
and on account of the crowded con

customery to send such cases to the
