He was "enthuslastio on the manner in which Coroner Jesse Mc-Geary is inquiring into the facts, and is Eerfectly satisfied that everything will be rought out betore the case Is finished. He intimated that, much of. their best evidence was stili to be brought out and that several surprises will be sprung.

Said he: "Suppose Dr. Balaton and others do attempt to show tha Daley purchased certain medicines for sickness of any kind, how can that account for broken ribs or -blood clots on the While, of course, we contend that Mr. Daley did not tile from such causes and have proven beyond doubt that he had perfect kidneys, yet ureamia, even if tt were possible under the testimony could not have caused these bruises and Internal Injuries. Dr. Gilh-f ord is quoted as having testified that there is no such disease as uraemia." He did say that, but he also said that uraemia is a symptom of a disease, which all physicians acknowledge.

Arrests Are Promised. "Before we have finished with this case arrests be- made. I am not pre- pared to make any detailed statements, out of courtesy to the corner and owing to professional duty. I will say, however, that 1 have been given to understand that an investigation of the West Penn hospital's conduct In this affair will take place through action on the part of Its trustees. "My friends In Philadelphia do not propose to tamely submit to such indignities offered a member of their profession and they propose that I enter Bult against the Travelers Insurance company for damages.

This will be done after this case is ended. My attorney here will also carry the matter before vthe Allegheny County Bar association, where charges will be entered. No such an attempt at intimidation was ever before practiced. "One of the institutions In this town wiil be defendant in a damage suit that may involve JlOO.OOO, on account of this case.

W'e now have detectives at the Hotel Henry and they have collected considerable evidence which we propose to bring out. They are guests of the hotel. We will also introduce Mr. Dslev'n oollar which shows blood spots, that were not washed out properly. The person who washed that collar did not know how to wash out blood stains.

They used hot water, which only impressed It Indelibly on the collar. Mir; Daley's shirt, which witnesses testified he wore to the hospital is still missing. All the witnesses said he did not have a collar -on when taken to that institution. were particular about, bringing out that a. Superficial Examination.

"Another thing wish to impress firmly on all who have seen it printed. That is that Dr. August Koenlg. whose reputation is the highest and whose ability I do not question, only made a superficial examination of Mr. Daley on his own statements.

It would be easy for any physician to determine from statements cf others and from a hypothetical case, that a man was suffering from almost anything but the real cause. Ha was only called Into consultation at tbe last moment. I am convinced that had he made a thorough examination he would have found everything as testified-to -by the Philadelphia physicians and Dr. GlUiford." "This i not a. question of veracity between Pittsburgh and Philadelphia physicians as stated in some of the paper3 but a question of facts on which some I ittsburgh physicians agree with the phy-Siclans irom Philadelphia, and upon which all the physicla-ns, irrespective of city or community, who.

were pretent at the autopsy, positively agree; that Daley met death from other than uaturei causes or disease." J- SF-- Rateton, stated to friends yesterday that he had evidence from Indianapolis and Kansas city that Mr. Daley was treated in both these places for uraemia and had nurchaspd ies for that disease.

was Indignant at the reports involving that hostelry and the effort to show that an elevator accident at that place had been concealed to ward off damage suits: Said he: "I wish to state emphatically nere and now that there hua l.oen elevator accident at this hotel nor was Mr. Daley injured here unless he received injuries by tailing as has been testified to. We would have no purpose In concealing any accident that might take place on the elevators or through them ioi we ar insured the Frarkfort In surance company against such accidents and when, anything happens always re- vvii dame 10 mem immediately. Why we have our employes always signify that nothing serloua has happened to them If the freight elevator or anything ever goes wrong, which is seidom; We always act promptly in any accident, and would have nothing to conceal or to lose even if it were-possible that Mr. Daley-was injured in any of our elevators.

But since this house has been opened our elevators have been In perfect condition, and nothing serious has ever gone wrong with them. Mr. Ditleywas not injured here and we court the fullest investigation. "When Mr." Daley' son says that I did not answer his telegram concerning hi father's illness' and was always too busy to talk to him about it when he came here, he certainly states what is not a fact. I sat down and talked with, him for two hours after he visited this city, and as far as the telegram was concerned, his father died before I had a The telegram asked concerning his state of health, and a soon as I had ascertained the fact that he was dead, 1 coram unicued with the Philadelphia office of the telegraph company by long distance telephone, asking them to notify Mr.
