What a Prominent Physician Says in Regard to the Emergency Hospital Scandal. ‘The situation at Emergency Hospital re- specting the fight of the board of directors and attending staff to get rid of Dr. James Kerr has developed nothing new within the past few days. Indeed, since the board of directors by a vote of 18 to 4 called upon Dr. Kerr for his resignation, the situation has remained practically where it was when the attending s‘aff asked the same thing. Dr. Kerr paid no attention to that request, and has not up to this time indicated what he intended to do. The case has attracted widespread interest, and has been the sub- ject of much unfavorable comment by the medical profession. A well-known and much respected physiclan of this clty, in conversation with several members of the Medical Society, said, in commenting upon the case: “This Emergency Hospital scandal (for that is what it has become) is ene of the most remarkable exhibitions ever known in medical politics In this city, and is watched with great interest by the profession. Med ical men have always claimed for their profession a high code of ethics and a fri dom from methods of politicians. Vi siclans have always been quick to re any position, no matter how desirabl on the slightest intimation leagues that such action was des up- of their col- ired, and have considered 1t an esse honor to do so. Here, hows a man eceupying an important position, asked politely by the staff of which he is a mem- ber to resign. He takes absolutely no noti@e of the request. The staff asks the board of directors to relieve them of his unw presence. He attempts to reconstruct the board, and succeeds by sharp ¢ of ward politi through _ technic: m1 law, in ousting several of the mos and oldest members of the board, placing them by those whose votes he was sure of controlling. Several of his ap- pointees, however, were not willing to serve when the political methods became known to them, by which they had been foisted upon the board of directors, and they re- signed. ‘The board immediately filled their places with old members who had been so unjust- ly deposed, and whose loss from the board was a serious blow to the hospital. Sull two or three of Dr. Kerr's newly elected retainers remain. In spite of this the board of directors asks his resignation by a vote of 18 to 4, and three of those voting in Dr. Kerr’s favor were men, as I have said, folsted upom the board by a political trick. Although asked to resign by the entre staff, and by nearly the whole board, he sull declines to do s0, and charges con- spiracy. Ycu all kncw what that amounts to. By far the most absurd part of the whole procecding is the attempt to create the impression that Dr. Kerr is the only surgeon in Washington who is capable of filling the position, and the assumption by him of the ttle cf surgeon-in-chief. He is simply one of the staff, and is no more entitled to the name of surgeon-in-chief than Fis colleagues are to the title of &ynaecologist-in-chief, laryngologtst-in- chief, paediatricist-in-chief, &c. or are his services of any more Importance and value than those of the other members of the staff. The attempts that have been made systematically for years by Dr. Kerr's friends to belittle other surgeons of Wash- ington are extremely reprehensible. It has been said that this fight is a fight of Georgetown College upon Dr. Kerr, because at the time it began he was a clinical pro- fessor in Columbian University. There is no truth in that statement. It seems very clear to me that the fight is Emergency Hospital against Dr. Kerr. The staff and board of directors have plainly indicated their belief that it would be best for the hospital for Dr. Kerr to go. Dr. Kerr has plainly intimated that it is best for his own personal interests that he remain, and he remains. There's the whole story. Dis- sect it as you please; discuss from any standpoint, and the result will be the same.” ——.—___ AT MT. VERNON. The Ladies of the Association Are Still in Session, The Mount Vernon Ladies’ Association Is still In session at Mount Vernon, and the regent and vice regents have been engaged discussing the affairs of the past year and planning for the coming one. Besides the regent and vice regents already named, Mrs. L. D. M. Sweat of Maine, Mrs. Hearst of California, Mrs. Harrison of Pennsylva- nia and Miss Yeatman of Tennessee have been present for the past three days, so that twenty states are now represented. Saturday afternoon the business discussed was the renewal of the contracts with the steamboat company. A_ committee from the Christian Endeavor Society have asked for an extension of hours at Mount Vernon, a reduced rate of admission and for the privilege of holding a patrictic mass meet- ing In front of the mansion during the days of the convention. These requests were carefully considered by the ladies, and were afterward refused, with the ex- ception of permission to keep the grounds open one hour later than usual. Yesterday morning the ladies accepted the invitation of the rector of the Pohick Parish Church to attend the services there. This was the old parish church of Washington, and was attended by him during his residence at Mount Vernon. After the service they re- mained to lunch with the rector, Rev. Mr. Wallis, and his sisters. Mrs. Goldsborough, the vice regent of Maryland, has presented a set of mahogany chairs of antique pat- tern, a reproduction of chairs in use about the time of Washington, for use around the council table. Miss Yeatman of Tennessee has, through citizens of her state, presented a herd of nine cattle, all registered thoroughbreds, which are expected to arrive next week. ,The ladies will reccive the governor of Virginia and the committee from the legis- lature this week. Mrs. Cleveland has also been formally invited to pay a visit to Mount Vernon during the council. ——___ Attempted Robbery. George Smith, a machinist, was locked up Saturday night on a charge of entering Thorn’s bicycle shop, on Water street, to rob the place. Mr. Thorn remained in the office when the men employed there had left, and when he heard a noise and went to make an investigation it is alleged he found the prisoner in there. A tool chest had been pried open, but nothing of any consequence had been taken, This morning he was charged in the Police Court with be- ing a burglar, and Judge Miller held him for the action of the grand jury. ——.__ The Lectures Finished. Col. C. A. Douglas of the law department of the Georgetown Law School has finished his lectures for the term, concluding with “Bills and Notes.” Mr. Douglas, who is from South Carolina, is comparatively a new instructor in the institution, but the faculty and students are highly pleased with his work, 11 (lata teeta dati ERG aE MATABELE INSECT POWDER.

A well-dressed young man was lying on his back on the bench in cell No. 1 at the first precinct station house this mornirg, with his legs crossed, his hands over his head, a new straw hat tilted against the side of his face, and a cigar held cr e in his mouth like a gag. He was Edgar L. Landrum of Atlanta, Ga., who has been in Washington a few da record for peculiarity. Landrum was arrested this morning for indulging in a sumptuous breakfast at the Raleigh cafe and then refusing to pay for it. Previously he had endeavored to force his attentions upon Miss Rena Duvall, a Postal Telegraph operator employed at the Ebbitt House, and a young lady of most estimable qualities and th character. Landrum evidently became infatuated with Miss Duvali’s attractive appearance, for he wrote her a letter before he had ever spoken to her or she was aware of his ex- istence, protesting his adoration and offer- ing her his hand and heart. Then he de- livered it in person at Miss Duvall’s resi- dence Saturday evening. The mother and brother of the young lady discovered that their visitor was evidently mentally un- sound and managed to get him out of the house. At 5 o'clock yesterday morning Landrum again called at the Duvall residence, and he did the same thing again this morning, being induced to leave both times, and ask- ed to call later, it being the intention to give him in charge of the police, who watched for him there during seasonable hours. His arrest for endeavoring to live at the Raleigh without the wherewith sim- plified matters for both the police and a highly respected and very much worried family. He will be examined as to his sanity. > MISS LANSBURG OF CALAIS. Identification of the Suicidee, Everctt of Boston. The body of the mysterious suicide reg- istered at a New York hotel as ‘Mrs. Ever- ett of Beston,” has again been identified, this time by Felicien Foucanier. He said that the deceased was Miss Louise Lans- burg, born at Calais, France, where he and she were children together, They wanted to marry, but inere were parental objec- tions, and Felicien went as a Belgian sol- dier to Africa, Louise went to England and married. He did not see her again until he met her at a hotel in this city in May, 1885. He never saw her again. She wanted Felicien to marry her, but he was oul of work and could not, and she wa {ll mar- ried. He was subsequently married, Janu- ary of this year, and his wife lives here. May 6 he received the following note from Louise, threatening to die, if he did not join her: Mrs. “New York, May 6, 1896. “Friend—I am free. 1 know you are married. I hope you will leave America and give me satisfaction—I have suffered, trusted and waited long enough—or I will die in the mystery of darkness of the Sth or 9th. LOUISE.” EXCURSIONS. Over 2,000 persons went down to River View with the Germania Meennerchor yes- terday and enjoyed the cool breezes and pleasant spots to be found at this delightful resort. The new attraction, “shooting the chute,” was engaged in by probably every one who went on the excursion, and it Is safe to say that there is no more popular form of amusement now anywhere in the vicinity of Washington. A delightful pro- gram was rendered by the singers of the society, while Chris Arth’s orchestra fur- nished excellent music. The chute was not completed until late yesterday morning, and although it was not at first intended to use it yesterday, Capt. Randall gave way to the pleadings of the many excursionisis and allowed the first use to be made of it. Every boat that came flying down the 360-foot incline nad its full load of passengers, and not one of the many who tried it stopped at one trip. The chute will be completed this week and ine electric Hghting plant will be put in. The committee of the First Congrega- tional Church Sunday School having in consideration the summer excursion of the school have made a report recommending that Glen Echo be chosen. The report was approved without delay and the trip will probably be made Friday, June 19. ———_—_ ‘Tennessee Centennial Poem.

After The §& "s report closed Mr. Kyle said that the ras company was a power in the District and a power over Congress. The company had always charged immense nd bad rever reduced the price un- less through fear of compulscry legisia- tion by Congress. Serator Faulkrer quoted the Commis- sioners’ 1 port to prove that some reduc- tions had been vcluntary. “I recognize the fact that the price has been volu: tarily reduced,” said Mr. Kyle, “but in my judgment it was under fear that something was going to be passed by Congress. “I sheuld like the Senator to give his reasons for that statement,” said Mr. Faulkner, “becacse I neve heard that before, und I have Leen Investigating this question for seven years.” “Have you di red,” interrupted Sen- ator George, “chat in 1866 the company voluntarily burned its books?” “No, sit, I have not discovered any such thing,” replied Mr. Faulkner. repeated Mr. George. said Mr. Faulkner. “I differ that statement, and I am Senator Kyle argued that if, as the re- port shoved, gas was used in only 26,000 out of 52,000 houses in the District, ft in- dicated that gas was so high that cent of the people could not use ft. high prices brought in immense profits, but there would be a much more general demand if the price was lowered, and the profits wculd be just as great without any injustice to the people. Senator Kyle quoted figures to show the low price of gas in res of cities all ever the United States. Senator Kyle said that a syndicate had offered the city of Philadelphia $20,000,000 for the city gas works, because the works were so profitable and turned so much money frtc the treasury A scene occurred when asserting that gas could I enator Kyle, made for 7 cents a thoisard feet, brought in the Rose-Hastings Company, which proposed te furnish gas at that price.

Mr. Harris said that he knew nothing of the correspordence, but that the company which Mr. Sands represented had consum- ed more time than any other company had occupied. After tkis episode Mr. Kyle asserted that he was opp.sed to the five year con- tract which the bill carried and to the high price of gas. He qvoted statistics to show that New York paid from $12 to $17 for eac rublic lamp for 4,000 hours of lighting, v.hile eccording to this bill Wash- ington was paying $20.0 per annum for a much Icss number of Lours.
