Congress Asked to Purchase the Building Now Occupied by the Institution Under Lease. The ninth annual report of the Eastern Dispensary was submitted to the Commis- sioners today through the superintendent ities. During the year there were visits, and a total of 2,693 patients ted at the dispensary. There were 327 operations and 5,888 prescripticns com- pounded. Continuing, the report say: “The board of directors re-leased the val- uable property No. 217 Delaware avenue northeast, the present location of this in- stitution, for a term of two years, with a right of purchase for the sum of $10,000. “Its iocation is well adapted for a dis- pensary, and the building is amply suffi- cient not enly for dispensary work, but for an emergency hospital, to include ¢ from the eastern sections of the Dist The necessity for this ¢ nae formally of the work ef this institution. The scope and purpose of this emergency feature are intended to cover one-half of the territory and embrace cne-third of the population of the District. “For the want of funds to secure ‘he proper equipment, this hospital has not been formally opened for the admission of emergency cases, but will be about Oc- tober 1. Congress Asked to Purchase. “The board of directors and lady man- agers desire that Congress should purchase this property for a dispensary and emer- gency hospital on the terms of the afore- said contract, and we earnestly request that you recommend this purchase in your report to the honorable Commissioners of the District, to the end that they may re- port the same to the present Congress for an appropriation. “In addition to the purchase of this prep- , tne board of directors and lady man- earnestly appeal for an appropriation 2,500 for the fiscal year 1899 to meet the icreasing demands of the dispensary, and $5,000 to maintain the emergency hospital, which will require the services of two resi- dent physicians, a janitor, two or more nurs a cook, surgical instruments, the necessary bedding, &c., the cost of which has been carefully estimated by the at- tending staff and approved by the board. The Emergency Feature. “The rendering of first ald to the injured is one of the demands which modern civi- lization exacts of all, whether from the professioral man or the artisan. Free treatment at any hospital or dispensary, whether the casé be emergency or other- wise, should be reserved exclusively for those unable to defray the cost of such treatment. ‘ases requiring treatment in emer- gencies will occur everywhere, and betiev- ing, as we do, that some restriction should be placed upon imposition, we think the city should be divided between the already existing institutions. For twelve months the beard of directors has considered the question of enlarging the scope of this institution, and in June of the present year contracted for beds and bedding, or- dered necessary instruments and appli- ances, placed @ resident physician and an assistant resident physician in the house. Two wards for mcre serious cases requir- ing detention and one ward for the re- ception of emergencies haye been fur- nished. “Located as we are, immediate aid can be rendered those persons who may be taken sick or be injured along the line of the steam railroads crossing the eastern section of the city; to similar cases occur- ring in the government printing office, at the race track, at the navy yard and at the Capitol. What in Needed. “While we have wards for the patients, accommodaticns for the residents ard the nurses, drug room, and all things neces- fary to a hospital, we.are lacking in funds necessary to its proper conduct. We can expect many calls upon our resources in the near future, and it would be particular- ly ermterrassing to be compelled to close our decors to the needy from lack of sub- stantial support. “An advance step was made in January, 1896, when the chair of electro-therapeutics was established and Dr. Bishop placed in charge. Since its establishment many cases of diseases otherwise incurable have been very materially relieved or cured. The expenditure of a moderate sum of money would increase the efficiency of the service very much. Whet this service, as weil as the dispensary, needs most, and should have at as eerly a date as possible, is a first-class static machine with an X-rays attachment. The cost of this machine will be from $875 to $400. a New Archbishop of New Orleans.

The Englishmen presented the same eleven which played the twenty-two “colts” last week at Manheim, with the excep- tion that Leveson-Gower, who was fll in New York at the time of the first match, is added. The English team is composed of the fol- lowing cleven: ; Warner, Chinnery, Marriott, Head, Jes- sop, Leveson-Gower, Tonge, Bennett, Hem- mingway, Stocks and Bull.

B. KILGORE DEAD Passed Away at Ardmore, I. T., After Lin- gering Inees. He Made Himeelf Famous When a Representative From Texas by Kicking Down a Door. Judge C. B. Kilgore died at Ardmore, I. T., yesterday, after a long period of ill health, under which he had borne up with Temarkable fortitude. His ailment was liver trouble. He spent a long time at Hot Springs, Ark., and at springs in Colo- rado with the hope of obtaining relief from the waters. About ten days ago he re- turned to the Indian Territory and opened court at Chickasha, but was compelled to adjourn after one day's session. He then went to Ardmore, and was taken down with the attack which cnded his life. He leaves a wife and several children. His remains will be taken to Willis, Tex., today for burial. Judge Kilgore was born in Newman, Ga., February 20, 1835. In 1846 he removed with his patents to Rusk county, Tex., where he received a common school anc academic education. He served in the confederate army, first as private, and by successive promotions reached the grade of adjutant general, serving as such én Ector’s brigade, Army of the Tennessee. He was wcunded at Chickamauge, and in 1864 was ccnfined as a prisoner in Fort Delaware. He was admitted to the bar after the war, and in 1875 was a member of the Texas constitutional convention. He was a presidential elector in 1880 on the Hancock and English ticket and in 188i was elected to the state senate for four years, aid in the following year was chosen president of that body for two years. He was elected to the Fiftieth, Fifty-first and Fifty-second Congresses as a democrat. As a_ member of Corgress from Texas Judge Kilgore was one of the best known men in public 1ife. He attracted wide pub- lic attention in the Fifty-first Congress by kicking ia a green baize door which had been locked by order of Speaker Reed dur- ing one of the filibustering scenes that made the first “quorum counting” -Con- gress memorable. He supported President Cleveland ardently, and, after he was re- tired from Corgress, the President appoint- ed him one »f the judges for the Indian Territery. —+e+—_____ THE SATURDAY STAR. ‘Twenty-Four Pages Full of Interest- ing Reading Matter Tomorrow.

The Fagitive Went From This City te Hyattsville, Thence to Baltimore —Later Developments. Barredine Di Nunzio knows the police are after him, and he 1s making an effort to keep a long distance in front of them. He has been traced to Bladensburg and Hy- attsville, and later to Baltimore. In the monumental city it was learned he kad been at Giovanni Bianco's saloon, on Pres- ident street near Eastern avenue, in com- pany with Antonio Fiscatti, alias “Tony Bell.” who is wanted here on a charge of keeping a “speakeasy” on 7th street above Florida avenue, a short distance from the \home of little Dora Ax, who, it is alleged, was so brutally treated by Di Nunzio. When the ac: rd left here he went di- rect to Bladensburg, carrying his mandolin with him. This sweet-toned instrument he had been in the habit of playing at houses of ill-fame in the section south of Pe vania avenue. His employment in houses kept him out 1: police of the eighth precinct had seen him so frequently that many of them had come to know him. Many of them had conversed with him, and they were astonished when they learned that he was the man wanted for so heinous a crime. When it was learned that Di Nunzio had been in Bladensburg and Hyattsville an officer sent ovt to make an investiga- tion, and there it was learned that he had purchased a ticket for Baltimore. He had visited saloons about Bladen: burg, and while in Hyattsville he earned few dollars repairing pianos and other in- struments. He went a taking with him one instrument, if no more, that had been given him to repair. The fuxitive’s pleasant manner and good looks had won for him a host of frienfs, and to several of them he stated he was goin; to Boston to work in a piano factory. Police in Pursuit. ‘As soon as Lieutenant Kenney learned that Di Nurzio had gone to Baltimore he sent several officers over there to make these at night, and the an investigation, and to get the man if) they possibly could do so. Policemen Har- ries and Willirghem went over on an early train, while Policersen Howard, Owens and Yetton went ove: later. The two who took the early train went immediately to the Italian quarter, and afterward went to the purt where fruit vessels land. A great many Italians spend their idle mo- ments about the wharves, waiting for ves- sels to arrive, but if Di Nunzio had been there he had departed before the officers arrived. Shipping offices were also visited, but no trace cf the man wanted was found. In these searches the Washington officers had been assisted by Baltimore detectives and when no trace of the man had been found about the docks they started to make a tour of tHe Italian resorts, and then it was that ihey learned of the visits of Di Nunzio and Fiscatt* to Bianco's place on President street. Both men had been in the saloon earlier in the evening, and Policemen Harries ard Willingham were anxious to remain there all night, but doubtful of being reimbursed in the amount of expense, they returned home. It is be- lieved that the visit of the officers to the saloon was made known to both Di Nunzio and Fiscatti, but the Baltimore officers promised to be on the lookout for the for- mer. Mrs. Di Nunzio’s Movemen! Inspector Mattingly and Detective Helan took an active part in yesterday's inyesti- gation, and also today, although so far as could be learned none of the Washington officers were sent over to Baltimore. The woman known as Di Nunzio’s wife disposed of some of ker household effects yesterday and packed her trunks, preparatory to leaving the city this morning. Her parents live in New Haven, Conn., she told some neighbors yesterday, and she said she was going to return to them. She had first met the man who has deserted her in New En- gland, it is stated, and they met again in this city and lived at the Ax home together as man and wife. While the police did not disbelieve the story that the woman was going to return to her parents, they had her followed to the depot this morning and there it was learned that she bought a ticket and hed her baggage checked to New York. She left on the 10 o'clock train on the Pennsylvania railroad and soon after the train started a telegram was sent to the New York police, asking their assist- ance in the case. It is possible that Di Nunzio and his wife will meet in New York, or at some point along the line of the railroad. Should he have gone to that city ahead of her, 4nd appear at the train to meet her this afternoon, the New York police may ap- brehend him. Some of the officers believ> there was an understanding between the man and woman to meet in New Haven later on, and for this reason the New Haven police will be asked to lend a helping hand. All the rtatements reported to have been made by Di Nunzio tend to show that he is thinking of returning to Boston, and = he expects to get work in a piano fact t tery. Now that Di Nunzio is a fugitive from Justice his fellow countrymen here are cir- culating all sorts of stories concerning him. The most serious @e is that he came to this country from Italy because he was charged with the death of a fellow towns- man where he lived. This story is not be- Heved by the So far as outward indications go Di Nunzio’s fellow countrymen in this city have made no effort to shield him, but josicpaie of ae volunteered to assist investigation.
