Pin Remains In Child’s Larynx After Delicate Surgery
A two year old boy at Lackawanna hospital underwent a tracheotomy after a six week delay following swallowing a three inch shawl pin. Surgeons found the pin’s point in the bronchial tube and could not remove it without fatal injury, so it remains embedded. The patient, though weak, is recovering and a second attempt may occur.

Hopeful Lopez to Forkston Railroad Promised in Wyoming
Attorney George M Watson leads a group to charter a railroad from Lopez in Sullivan County to the mountain above Forkston in Wyoming County. Prospectors claim rich building stone and aluminous clay deposits, with a Philadelphia firm ready to buy up to a million cubic feet monthly at 0.5 to 1.25 dollars per cubic foot.
