Major Richards, Superindent of Police was Called upon by the Baltimore Guzrte’s representative, who stated the case to him, and added that as there was much interest being felt in Maryland in referenee to the matter, be desired to iknow If he had any ex- planation e said su pers phe was Lot familiar with the case referred to, He un- derstood, however, Uvat there had been some patients removed from the Asylum lately, and some of them bad been taken to Mary: land. Officer Connell, he understood, had superintended their removal from the “Asy- jum. Major Richards further stated that the Asylum was designed especiaily for the insane of the District of Columbia, but that for some time past natives of different States had been sent there, having been found in- sane in Washington. The District Commis- sioners had requested Dr. Nichols to farnish @ list of all non-resident patients who were of the District, since when they had been re- moved from time to time to various States as opportunity offered. Some bad been sent to North Carolina, being provided with free transportation to their friends, and placed on the cars. As far as he was aware, the three cases referred to above were the only ones removed from the Asylum into Maryland. In reply toan inquiry as to why they had been removed in such an extraordinary way atmiduight and abandoned in the manner above described. Major Richards replied that he knew nothing about it, and that Dr. Nichols had only, as far ashe was aware, obeyed the Instructions ofthe District Com- missioners in causing their removal from the institution. The Truth of the Matter. STATEMENT OF DR. C. H. NICHOLS. A Star reporter called on Dr. C. H Nichols, superintendent at the asylum, to- day, and called his attention to the aboye articles. Dr. Nichols stated that the facts were as follows: Some few weeks since he was requested by the Commissioners of the District to furnish a list of the inmates of the institution who were there at the ofthe District but were from other state, where they should be provided for, and he furnished a iist of about twenty persons, whose insanity at this time was tegdeden ns ofa mild . The District issioners, from time time, ma bari for their jon, and Sani itary icer Con- nell ‘saw to their transportation, but in some cases they were allowed to leave unaccompanied aud went alone on their jourrer. Dr. Nichols stated that the case in anut shell was this: the District Commis- sioners being anxious to reduce the expenses and tocut off all unnecessary charges de termined to cut off some of the expenses a this Asylum which sometimes amounts for non-resident patients to as much as four to five hundred dollars per month. Prince G-orge’s county, Md., in this matter was simply receiving her own, and he rezretted to say that with the exception of one or two counties in Maryland there was a dispos!- tion to fend their pauper insane and other unfortunates into the District to be cared tor. He had nothing whatever to do with the transportation, and when they were sent for be released them, In regard to this particular case, OfMicor Connell on the 2sth of June recetved instrae tions to take them to Pri s cout ty, as near the as he possibly could.
