Mr. Kelfer (Ohio) in the course of a further dis- cussion bf the question, spoke in severe terms of Fitz Jobn Porter. ‘Mr. Slocum said that he was. glad, that the gentle- man from Ohio had attacked Fitz John Porter.

He (Mr. Slocum) had only been sur- prised that the gentleman from Ohio had not sum- Moned Mr. Charies Garfield and Elder to sustain his cause in this instance, as he had done a few daysago.

The members were busy in registering their names, and the list this morning contains about 1,200 names. The body of the church was entirely occupled with delegates, and many were compelled to find seats 1m the galleries. Shortly after 10 o'clock the presi- dent, Dr. Austin Flint, called the association to order, and Rev. W. A. Bartlett, D. D., the ot the New York Avenue Presbyterian church, of this city, lead in prayer. THE DEATH OF DR. GROSS. The president then announced in fitting terms and ina graceful vein of eulogy the death of Dr. Gross, the eminent surgeon. The following com- mittee was appointed to draft resolutions of respect to the memory of the deceased: Dr. Austin Flint, N. ¥.; L. A. Sayre, N. Y.; Dr. Packard, Pa; F. Hamilton, N. ¥.; M.

SANITARY SERVICE ON BOARD OCEAN STEAMERS. ‘The committee appointed to report upon the reso- lution for securing more competent medical and sanitary service on board trans-oceanic passenger Vessels, through the chairman, Dr. A. N. Bell, made areport. He stated that after due consid Dill was prepared and placed in the hands of Hon. H.W, Slocutn, member of Congress at large fromm New York, whio had introduced it in the House, and it had been referred to the committee on commerce. ‘This bill, which Is entitled a WI “to regulate the carriage of exclusively to be devoted to hospital uses, one for men and one for women. it requires the employ- ment of a medical practitioner, and when the num- ber of passengers exceeds 60) he 1s to have an assistant. The doctor Is to report to the captain such regulations as he wishes carried out. Dr. Kaiser, of Philadelphia, thought that the bill ‘Was a good One, but it did not go far enough, as 1t should require ube surgeon of the vessel vo report directly to the United States government, and not to the captain of the vessel. Dr. Irwin, of New York, sald that owing to the fact that the Dill allowed the doctors to be ap- pointed by the company and to be under their con- {rol It was impracticabie, and could not be carried ‘out, He favored the plan of making the doctor tn- dependent of the company, and in ail sanitary mat- ters the authority subjec ‘only Uo the laws of the United States. There was some question whether the United States had the right to legislate for Toreign bottoms, but_he belleved that jusuice and necessity gave Unis right. The statistics of mor- tality upon these vessels showed the necessity. Dr. Jones, of Pa., sald that from his position as a government medical Inspector he had never found Uhat captains of our vessels interfered with sanl- lary regulations, or Uhat the hospitals of those vessels Were occupied with rope and waste matter. He thought that the rate of mortality on these ves- Sels was very low. ‘The report of the committee was then accepted and the committee continued. A resolution urging upon Congress immediate action In this matter was adopted. Dr. J. V. Shoemaker, of Pa., tne chairman of the Section on practical medicine, read a report, in which he traced the history of the practice of medi- cine, materia medica and phystology, with extend- ed réfereuce to the bacillers theory.

In closing, Dr. Shoemaker referred in severe terms to the tendency manifested on the part of special- ists to form cliques, and exclude the rest of the profession from their deliberations. The attempt ‘was thus made to form an aristocracy In the most democratic of professions. These strictures were Tecelved with general applause. ‘The next address was by the chairman of the section of obstetrics and diseases of women, Dr. T. A. Reamy, of Ohio, Who described 231 cuses of. lace— Tated cervix utert. .

Dr. Henry Smith, of Philadelphia, offered a reso- lution which recited that an attempt was now be- ing made to restrict. by legislation the practice of Anvestigation in medical sclence by experiments on antinals.

A pro- fessor would be unable to show hisclass the of digestion or the circulation of blood in a frog's foot. This result was certainly not desirable. The further object of the society, to prevent needless cruelty, would find the co-operation of the medical profession. ‘The resolutions were referred to a committee as follows: H. C. Wood, Wm. Bopper. Jas. Tyson, of Pennsylvania; Christopher John: Maryland; J. C. Dallas, Austin Flint, Jr., of New York, andJ. 8 Billings, 0.8. N. MEDICAL COLLEGES.
