There was little change In the gauge THE NEW DOCK I II WM New Commissioner Not Ready to Define Policy as to Brooklyn. TOMKINS OPPOSED MAYOR. Removal Was Summary Former Commissioner to Give Out Correspondence With Gaynor. The suddeo removcl from office of Dock Commissioner Calvin Tomklns and his replacement by R.

A. C. Smith, chairmau of the State Harbor Commission and a close personal friend of Mayor Gaynor, has caused a feeling of concern In Brook lyn as to the effect the change will have on the destinies of the South Brooklyn waterfront development. Mr. Tomklns" removal, which occurred late yesterday afternoon, was brought about through a radical difference of opinion between the Dock Commissioner on tho one hand and the Mayor and Terminal Committee of the Board of Estimate on the other, as to the general policy of port development to be fol lowed.

This was stated positively by Sir. Tomkins himself today. Considering the fact that the South Brooklyn de velopment was one of the "pet" policies of the former dock head, this fact is significant. There have been many differences of COMMISSIONER. opinion recently between the Mayor and Mr.

Tomklns, but the real break which led to his removal, the former Dock Commissioner believes, was his letter of last iu opposition to the Walker bill, which had been submitted to the Legislature over his head, by the members of the Terminal Committee of tho Board of Estimate. The Dock Commissioner in his letter objected strenuously to the provisions of this bill, which strip the head of the Dock Department of much of the power he now holds In affairs of port administration and convey them to the Board of Estimate. Mr. Tomklns confirmed the fact that he had not resigned out was removed. The news of the change reached him iu an abrupt and unexpected fashion last night, with the announcement of the appolutmcut of Mr.

Smith as the new Commissioner, by the Mayor. The new Dock Commissioner and the old met In the Dock Department this morning, and were closeted together for almost two hours. The two are strong friends and have an earnest regard for each other. Mr. Tomklns expressed his desire to co-operate with his successor as much as possible and also declared that he did not Intend to l.ise touch with port affairs.

Re is still a member of the cJtate Connubaiuu. New Commissioner Hefuses to Out- iina His Policy, Mr. Smith would not make any statement as lo the port policy he favors. He will not do so until he Is more funilliur with the duties of his now office, he declared, but he may have something to say in a few days. Any intimation of the new commissioner's attitude on port Improvements would have to be drawn by inference.

He had not discussed with the Mayor any definite port policy, he declared. Hi's appointment was made too unexpectedly for that.

NO OPERATION Chicago Specialist Found Brooklyn Had Treated Dr.

Bcgart With Dr. J. Blon Bogart. the noted Brooklyn surpeon, wt'j became critically ill with peptic after he had been in- reeled fi um an operation on a iatient at the Kings County Hospital lust November, and whoso recovery was considered doubtful for days, returned to Brooklyn today looking the picture of health and giving the best possible answer, in his personal appearance, to the opinion that he would never recover from the Infection. Dr.

Bogart came from Chicago, where he has been for the major part of the time since he left tho city late in Janu ary, a patient under the care ol Dr. Jonu B. Murphy, who Is considered in the medical profession as one of the world's greatest surgeuus Dr. Bogart went to him after It had been found hi re that thera was danger of his losing control of his left arm because the Infection from which he suffered had spread to the shoulder joint. Skill of Brooklyn Doctors Wamily Praised.

From Dr. Murphy came the assurance that the four Brooklyn doctors who had charge of Dr. Bogart's case bad already Insured their patknt's recovery. They had found that tho Infection, which was ot a particularly virulent nature and sim ilar to. that which caused the death last week of Dr.

A. T. Brlstow, had become seated in the shoulder Joint. It was feared that this might prove fatal, and it was tilso a matter of grave concern that even if Dr. Bogart recovered, the joint would It so stiffened as to render the Mm useless.

The Brooklyn men, Drs. Delatour, Pil-elior, Spence. Monro and Arthur H. Logan, the patient's brother, inserted a dram, however, and through' it treated he shoukkr to such good effect that Dr. Bogart's complete recovery was only a mcltcr of time when be went to Chicago to be under the care of Dr.

Murphy, this course had beeu decided on by the attending physicians because Dr. Bogart's jurgleal skill depended on the complete rcstoratiou to Health' of the allected rhouMer. and It was agreed that, he could receive no belter treatment than as a pstient of the Chicago surgeon, to whom till the men of the profession pay tribute. Dr. Bogart's condition still caused con-corn to his lricnds, however, when he went to Chicago, and many of them have been anxious because of hiB long slay there.

But when the "sick man" re turned to tho city today, it developed that he bad been a patient for only about tour weeks, and then had used the rest of tho time required for rest for a "holiday" that permitted him to become a student again under the tutelage of Dr. Murphy aud the famous Mavo brothei'a, of Rochester, Minn Dr. Bogart went to the Hotel St. George today with the inteuttou of keep iilE in rei ircmenl a lew days before see Inst his old natit'Rls. but the fact that he was there and recovered after serious a siege could not be kept quiet lie confirmed the news that his restora tion to health was complete, but said that he preferred to talk about the won derful tlviugs he had seen at the clinics of Dr.

Murphy and the Mayos rather than about himself. "1 used most of my time, even while I was at, the Mercy Hospital in Chicago under Dr. Murphy's care, in seeing just how he did his work," said Dr. Bogart "It wasn't necessary to have any opera tion on myself. Dr.

Murphy said that my phvsicians in Brooklyn done just what was necessary and he congratulate on the fact that. I had been in such (icelient hands. While 1 was under his charge, it was simply a matter of seeing that the membrane in my shoulder joint didn't grow fast to the bone and that the infection, which was believed to have affected the bone Itself, wa3 entirely up. Saw Many Remarkable Operations While Away. "So I was able lo be present at nearly all the operations by Dr.

Murphy; and then, enriy In March, I thought. I'd seize the opportunity given by my enforced vacation to go over to Rochester. the home ot William F. Mayo and his brother. Both Dr.

Murphy and the Mayos gave me every opportunity to see their work and 1 guess It was worth' wlille being sick because of the new things I've learned. It was really great." According to Dr. Bogart. Dr. William F.

Mayo conceded first place In surgery Id the world today to Dr. Murphy. "I suppose, though," said Dr. Bogart, "that it Dr. Murphy were asked the same question that he would give the honor to Dr.

Mayo. But. of courne. the work ot the two men is dlffernt. Dr.

Murphy Is known for his work in bone surgery aud Dr. Mayo bs an abdominal surgeon. But Dr. Murphy's work covers every part of tile body. 1 have seen him operate on the abdomen, Ihe head, the chest, and, iu fact, everywhere, with the same marvelous facility that stamps his wonderful work In treating diseases ot the bones and joints." Dr.

Bogart Not to Resume Practice Just Yet. Dr. Bogart said that he did not expect to resume his practice until about the first of May. He said that he Intended to do some more studying st Johns Hopkins, In Baltimore, and wanted to take a little more time In regaining his strength completely. It Is almost four months and a half since Dr.

Bogart's Illness caused so much alarm to his friends. While operating upon the diaphragm ot a patient at the Kings County Hospital he pricked his finger slightly with a lancet, and afforded an opening for Infection. For several days afterward it was feared that death was Inevitable, but Dr. Bogart's robust physique enabled him to withstand the strain. He was conned to his home at 463 Clinton avenue until early In January, however, and wns only a shadow of his former self when he went to Chicago In the last week of that raon, Tho Inleetion wnicn caused Dr.

Bogart's illness came lu the same service as that which resulted In the death ot Dr. nrlstow last week. Dr. Brlstow went on duty after his fellow surgeon had been stricken nnd received the wound that rndod fatally In almost the same manner ns that which had affected Dr. Bogart.

Dr. Bogart Is chief of tho surgical divisions In tho Kings County. Methodist Episcopal and Jewish Hospitals. During the recent surgical congress here ho performed a number of rare opera- '''f1-y fP'lR1 lu lllte pi 1'fcllMO I'L -HI" dui- eU ot tht, country. Vrn.

Bogart, who was Mrs. Mnrlon Corbit Rlckelts of Chicago, nnd who was married to Dr. Began last April, re turned with him from Chicago today. She has been his devoted nurso during all his Illness. DIES AFTER SHORT FALL.
