13 THE PUBLIC WARDS What Representatives of Child-Car- ing Institutions Say. DISTRICT ASYLUMS ECONOMICAL > Protest Against the Proposed Dep- tivation of Appropriations. A QUESTION OF POLICY ‘The amendment to the District appropria- tion bill recently proposed by Senator Mc- Millan proposing to give to the Board of ‘Children’s Guardians the amounts formerly allotted to the several charitable institu- tions of the District in payment for the care of juvenile dependents has naturally out the most vigorous opposition on part of the institutions. The proposi- length the various advantages, economical and otherwise, claimed for the system un- which all expenditures are controlled by one central board. It is argued, how- ever, that in this city, where many useful austitutions have been built up by years of veareful attention and charitable effort on behalf of benevolent people, a change made now in the system would not be economical or wise. Those who champion the cause of the institutions assert that the Board of | | children; so this institution stands alone of its kind, which is alike true of the depart- ment for “aged and indigent women,” ex- cept the one called the “Little Sisters of the Poor.” Hi carried on this institution from its infancy to its present status of suc- cess, we had at no distant day, to have given it over to the colored people, as their charge, free from government expense, as so many of them have now attained posi- tions of wealth, influence and respectability. We had anticipated that the board of chil- dren’s would have co-operated with us, and so be an assistance, but the re- sult is different. The harmony of the fam- ily life has been broken, as the children, in many cases, sent to the home, with but a street training, have exerted a bad influence upon the children, easy to see and under- stand. Is it not a grave question, then, whether the discipline and good order of this long and well-established home by the intro- duction of this element shall be interfered with, and the object of this association set aside by this doubtful and experimental de- = of the board of children’s guard- In view of all this, may we not zeasonably ask, with some assurance of success, that this association be restored to its former status by receiving the appropriation of $10,000 (ten thousand dollars) rather than give this amount to a board whose existence is but that of a few months’ duration, and which has only proved by theory, and not prectice, that it is commendable? St. Aun’s Infant Asylum. James R. O'Beirne writes as follows: “I desire to say a few words about St. Ann’s Infant Asylum, one of the excellent institutions of this city, which has done so much—nobly and charitably—for suffering humanity in this District since 1861. Re- cent inimical publications, calculated to in- jure this and kindred institutions, in their great mission of mercy and well-domg, de- mand this, in the interest of truth and cor- rect public opinion. The origin of St. Ann's Infant Asylum was for the purpose of ten- derly caring for little waifs and infant | erphan children, deprived of their natural guardian, or whose parents could not care for them. It was established in 1500, and by act of Congress, March 3, 1863, was " granted a charter, approved by President eoaren s Guardians has special function | Lincoln. It was started in private benef- Sppropriation for it, and at the same time helping the old-established institutions’ to continue the work they have been doing for years.The side of the institutions as against the board is presented strongly in a number f letters received by The Star. The Industrial Home School. Mr. B. T. Janney, writing in behalf of the Industrial Home School, says: The question, “What shall be done with the funds generally appropriated for the benefit of the homeless and friendless chil- Gren of the District of Columbia?” has come to be an interesting one. Shall it be ap- Propriated for the sole use of the board of children’s guardians or shall the usual amount go to each of the various institu- tions of the city? This should be decided only after all of the environments have Deen carefully examined, and all of the facts bearing upon the subject duly consid- ered. I am in*erested in one of the “insti- tutions” and speak from some experience im the matter of caring for children and) with a knowledge of the good work that has been done by the zealous Christian people. who have for so many years labored ‘nd given their time without any reward «ave the satisfaction always bestowed up- on_well-doers. Congress is asked by the board of chil- dren’s guardians to turn over to it all of the funds to be used for the care of chil- dren. It has been asserted that the “institu- tions” are trying to get the money of the board of children’s guardians. This is not, | so far as I know, the truth. On the con trary, the board of children’s guardians has asked that every cent of every ap- propriation for every institution in the Dis- trict of Columbia for the care of children be given to it. This, too, knowing, as the members of that board well know, that it cannot, under the organic law creating it, take cognizance of more than one-fifth of the homeless and friendless children of this city. ‘The law says that the board of children’s guardians shall have care and supervision of children of specified classes whenever vuch children may be committed to the care of the board by the Police Court or Criminal Court of the District. What is to be done for the four-fifths who, from some misfortune, have become luced to poverty, and who have no call appear within the sacred precincts of a triminal court? There can be but one answer. They must te neglected till compelled by the gnawings gt hunger to commit some act for which they may be forced befcre the criminal bar. The agent of the board of children’s Guardians delights to tell of the “monu- mental success of the Children’s Aid So- ciety of New York” and of the “successful = in Michigan of the free home prin- ple.” ‘Why does he not tell of the monumental establishments erected by the Children’s | Ald Society of New Ycrk and of the states of Massachusetts, Ohio, Michigan and oth- ers in which the children are cared for and ‘made over for one, two, three or more years, and fitted to take advantage of the “free e principle? This is precisely the work that the “In- ustrial Home School” has been doing for twenty years, and its records and results are ogen for inspection to any who feel sufficiently interested to examine them. I verily believe that the “homeless and erdless” children of the District of Co- jumbia have, during any one of the past ten years, been quite as well cared for as during the one now nearly gone by, and at po time ever before in the history of our beautiful city has it been possible for parent to have his offspring taken posses- sion of by “a government agency which is pot urder any obligation to tell him where 1 Colored Home. child has gone. The Natio: Martha S. Pomeroy, president, and Louise B. Swan, vice president of the National Colored Home, write: The National Asso- ciation for the Relief of Destitute Colored ‘Women and Children has been in existence end its work carried on most successfully for thirty-one years. Its conduct has been @pproved of by successive committees on propriations of both houses of Congress ind by the former superintendent of chari- tes; also by the present superintendent. its earlier officers and patrons bear names fot unknown here now or in the states of their homes, as that of Mrs. Lyman Trum- bull. Mrs. Ben F. Wade, Mrs. James Grimes nd Mrs. Justin Morrill. This association was organized soon after the close of the War, when the need of such an institution Yaz most apparent, viz. the supporting of “such aged or indigent colored women and ehildren” as would properly come under the charge of such an institution. This asso- Ciation, therefore, is not for child caring solely, though this feature of it, by reason of the circumstances surrounding it in this community of limited means, has become more prominent, for of the many homes, asylums and institutions where children are Yeceived and provided for, this is the only one in a community of 80,000 colored people where there is found a home where negro children are cared for, receiving a common school education, with moral and Christian &s well, until such times as homes or places of employment (which promise other and further means of improvement in the learn- ing and acquisition of trades, or in other useful occupations whereby they may be- cme intelligent, moral and useful members ef society) can be procured. Homes are ¢arefully sought for them by this institu- tion, where they are placed and inquired after until grown to the state of manhood or womanhood. It is proposed to transfer the work of this association entirely to the board of children’s guardians, by failing to make any appropriation for their maintenance through this association. In our judgment this will result in failure and disaster to this class of children. Homes for white children are readily found in white families, but for this class of children, the orphaned or abandoned ones, between the ages of three and twelve years, the finding of a single home is rare indeed; and it is a labor to secure places of employment after the age of twelve years, when by the manage- ment of this home the placing out is sought. Children are here taught to read and write nd secure a common school education, which otherwise they would not get. We do not wish to antagonize the board of chil- dren’s guardians, but, apart from all senti- ment we are confronted with a condition arising from class distinction. So, having this class to provide for, is it not better to have such chiliren in the custody of those who will care for them until old enough to take up the life of toil that awaits them? There are 120 children in the home. But Separate from this child-caring feature of our work {is another portion of our charter obligation—the care of the “aged and indi- ent colored women;” those who have out- ved their usefulness and are often beyond the allotted age of human life. To these we offer a home and shelter. The provisions of the bill referred to alone cut off all aid that has heretofore been Given to us for these women. So it seems to Us that this National Association is a nezes- sity in this community, a necessity to the large class from whom its waifs and in- fates come, a necessity from the fact that it is the only orphan asylum of its kind in (his District whose doors are open to the | icence, and supported by donations and alms of the charitably disposed. Its charter | rights, under the law of Congress, are as full as those of any other institution, the Washington Foundling Asylum, and the board of guardians included, with respect to adoption and indenture. It deals whoily with those necessarily who are public charges, and receives very small compensa- tion from the government, in prpportion to the number cared for. Although willing and anxious to receive from the board of guardians, it has gotten practically nothing, while deprived of the 40 per cent allowance. The stoppage of all direct appropriation would fataily cripple the only infant asylum | in Washington that cares for all abandoned and unprotected infants, without distinction of color, race or antecedents, and does for them all that the board of guardians claims to do, including putting them out to nurse when requisite, and when good nurses can be found. It cares for 100 infants in the asylum, and about thirty are out to nurse. The death: are very few, having been for the quarter ending March 31, 1594, only nine in number, of whom three died of natal injuries. It is under charge of Sister Agnes, assisted by the Sisters of Charity of the order of St. Vincent, who do not seek, and | never ‘have sought, to antagonize any other charitable institution or organization, but the sisters aim only to do their own work silentiy, heroically and industriously. I ask, in the Interest of justice and fairmindedness, that the appropriation al- lowed St. Ann’s be distinct and definite as heretofore, in order that the good work of the sisters may go on in peace and charity. ‘The appropriation now received by the in- stitution amounts only to about $0 per year per child, or $2.50 per month, whereas foundlings in charge of board of children’s guardians and other institutions cost the public five times as much. The board of children’s guardians coolly want the entire appropriation for children of all classes in nine institutions, which have nearly 1,10 irmates, while the board of guardians has only about fifty children in the institution and 100 outside. It ean receive children only through the criminal courts, by the judges of which its members are appointed, vpon the absolute surrender of the children until they become of age. The total number of such juvenile dependents is less than 20 per year. If the plan of the MeMilian amendments be adopted, four-fitths of the children requiring institutional care will be absolutely unprovided for. The board of guardians has sent only three children to St. Ann’s Asylum in ten months. I claim for St. Ann’s Asylum the same ex- emption from the control of the children's guardians as is conceded to the “Washing ton” Fdundlins Institution on charter grounds. The year-old charter of St. Ann's, by fourteen years the elder, provides, regarding male and female children under its charge: “Said corporation shall have power to bind them out for a time not to exceed twenty-one and eighteen years, respect- ively, as apprentices, to learn any trade or business or to learn to be useful in house- keeping, or may under terms prover, in view of said corporation, place them for adoption, or as inmates, with any families or persons." The same statute gives the asylum authority over children “as fully and completely to ail intents and bound apprentices to said institution.’ minor cannot be at the same time ex-lu- sively the ward of each of two guardians, it follows that the claim of the board of children's guardians to exclusive guardian- ship under the act of 18 entirely in- consistent with the older and more specific law chartering St. Ann's. Neither of the foundiing asylums of this city can prop- erly be placed by an appropriation bill un- der the unrestricted domination of the board of children’s guardians. The benefactions of St. Ann’s are not limited to kinless waifs nor dependent upon the severance of pa- rental ties. It cares for the half orphan es well as the foundling and for the child of the impoverished mother, who is not forced to disown and abandon her offspring in or- der to save it, but who can take the little one home again when able to provide for it. Of the property of St. Ann’s devoted to public service, today worth more than $150,000, not one cent was contributed from public funds. It has recetved considerable sums in donations and for part support of children of poor parents. It pays no sala- ries, and hence makes to the public the largest possible return for the smali appro- priation given it. It supports 130 children at less cost to the government than other establishments are allowed for thirty chil- dren of the same unfortunate class. It asks only to be given as much as the others and that the appropriation of $6,500 may be direct and specific as heretofore.’ St. Joseph's Orphan Asylum. Mr. Lawrence Gardner writes to The Star for the Sisters of St. Joseph’s Orphan Asylum as follows: “For the Sisters of St. Joseph's Orphan Asylum and for the orphans under their charge I desire to enter protest against the passage of an amendment to the Dis- trict appropriation bill, introduced by Sen- ator McMillan. The amendment is so evi- dently unjust that I can hardly believe Mr. McMillan could have understood its pur- pose or what the results of such an amend- ment would be if adopted. “There has been a ery raised for some time about the institutions of the District of Columbia fighting the board of children’s guardians. The best way to reach such questions is to meet the assertion with a broad denial. The statement is certainly false as far as St. Joseph’s is concerned. The institutions are not fighting the board of children’s guardians, but the board of children’s guardians is fighting the insti- tutions and trying to destroy what has taken years of patient, hard work and urceasing beneficence on the part of good citizens to build up. “For one, I do not desire to be placed in the position of criticising the board of children's guardians or the work that it has accomplished. It is an experiment at the cost of other institutions, and now, by an amendment offered, it is evidently the desire to make it not only a permanent board, but the only child-caring institu- tion, before it has gone through the test of successful experiment during a single year. “The institutions of the city of Washing- ton compare favorably with those of any other city. The managers of these several institutions have worked for years with- out compensation, simply for the love of the good they were doing, trying to see where a dollar could be raised and a penny saved, so that they could eke out their scanty existence, accomplishing the greatest possi- ble good with the means at their disposal. Congress has assisted many of these good works with small appropriations in ex- change for great service of the public in taking care of dependents who would other- wise be charges upon the tax payers. The institution of which I desire to speak has only received about $3,180 in thirty-two years. The frst appropriation it received was for $2,000, which was used principally in purchasing market supplies. The follow- ing year an appropriation for $2,000 was asked for, but it was cut down 40 per cent, and the 40 per cent given to the board of children’s guardians. The intention of Con- gress was that the institution should re- celve some benefit from the 40 per cent, un- der the supposition that the board would mina- | stitution has at all times been THE EVENING STAR, THURSDAY, MAY 8, 1894-TWELVE PAGES. send some children to the asylum. But nothing of the kind has occurred. The in- willing to ac- cept children, and so notified the board. But not one ward of the children’s gu: ns has been sent to it. So the 40 per cent de- ducted was a total’loss from the small propriation. Under the amendment offe: it is now proposed to wipe out the 60 per cent, and place the entire amount, aggre- gating at the expense of several institu- tions a fund of $52,000 in all, as an appro- priation for the board of children’s guar- dians, to be doled out as they please; and, as far as we are concerned, we have no as- surance that we will meet with any better encouragement than we did during the past year. On the contrary, experience shows that to be “remitted” to the board of chil- dren’s guardians would mean the denial of any recompense whatever for the public service we render. From the reports of the board of chil- dren's ns it appears that they had about one hundred orphans, outside of those now in institutions. The proposition pre- sented Is to take away the appropriation from all the juvenile charitable institutions that are now represented by about one thou- sand children and give it to a board with only one hundred, and the work of that board confined entirely to the adoption of such children as may be sent to them by the Police or Criminal courts. Of the amount of money expended by the board of children’s guardians, only $2,500 of the $24,200, the 40 per cent deducted from the institutions, have been returned to the institutions, and nine-tenths of that went to two establishments. This shows conclu- sively that the intentions of the committee who originally made the deduction of 40 per cent have, from some cause, not been car- ried out. We would therefore protest against the adoption of the amendment as offered, and respectfully ask that St. Joseph’s Asy- lum be given the same amount—namel: appropriated in 1891. This is surely scant compensation for the constant care of 125 orphan children of the District of Columbia. Our present appropriation amounts to less than 3 cents per child. It lis the lowest per capita allowance in the |city. To deprive us of it would be extrav- agant policy, lessening the capacity of the institution to do public good, chiefly accom- plished through private charity. House of the Good Shepperd. Rev. J: F. Mackin, pastor of St. Paul's Roman Catholic Church, takes up the cause of the House of the Good Shepherds, and writes that this institution “has done its work quietly in our midst for eleven | years, and has known no distinction of class or creed, but has always opened its doorg to the unfortunate, whether brought by parents, sent by the courts or officers of the law, or voluntarily applying. It has on its board clergymen of different denomina- tions, and within its walls unfortunate girls and women of every age and condition. does not require or expect them to appear before a court of law or a paternal board of guardians to make public their sorrows. It recetves them quietly and shelters and educates them to habits of industry and morality until they are fitted to begin life over again. For this it has asked and re- ceived only a pittance of from five to ten cents a day for each inmate, whose sup- pert, under the board of guardians or in an institution conducted wholly at public ex- perse, costs from three to five times that amount. “Forty per cent of this slender allowance was taken from them last year for the board of guardians, whose only return wus one chikbalready rejected by three other homes. Now they stretch out their hands for the whole appropriation, under the pre- text of reforming a class which will never be brought to their doors, and which they could not by any means control. A large portion of the inmates of the House of the Good Shepherd are over sixteen years of age, and therefore not within their jurts- | diction, and no homes are opened to chil- dren of this class until they have given evi- dence of reformation. “We challenge investigation by any law- fully appointed commission. We court com- | parison with any kindred institution, public or private, as to our methods, the results of 200 years experience of the Order of the Good Shepherd in the care and reformation of erring women.” ——>__ PERIL OF COIN COUNTERS. Fall of Twpo Million Silver Dollars in the Philadelphia Mint. A portion of the $50,000,000 that is stored away in vault C at the Philadelphia mint came very close to being a cause of dis- aster to several clerks who were counting the coin yesterday afternoon. The coin was piled up in bags to a height of twelve feet and a width of eight feet. The vault is damp, and the bags had be- come moldy and frail. About 8 o'clock, as Wellir gton Morris, an employe, was stand- ing on top of the pile raking in some loose silver dollars; he trod into a bag, and the silver dollars at once began to slide out. Like a snowball on a mountain side, the mass of silver dollars grew in size. There was an ominous rumble, and the clerks at the foot of the pile icoked up in surprise. Seeing the impending danger, a wild break ‘was made for the door. Dr. Caleb Whitehead, who represents the mint bureau, jumped over the scales at the moment when the dollars poured down with a roar, and F. A. Sartori and W. L. BosbysheH, who are assisting in the count- ing, scrambled out in the nick of time. Serious injury to Morris was feared, but he succeeded in escaping unhurt. The impact of the dollars shook the mint building as by an earthquake, and intense excitement prevailed among the employes. It is estimated that the amount which fell was valued at fully $2,000,000, and weighed 112,000 pounds. —— Senator Wolcott Upheld. A letter indorsing Senator Wolcott for his recent speech upon the Allen resolution, signed by over 100 citizens of Boulder, Col., has been forwarded to Washington. AUCTION SALES.
