Hiiness and Their Cause During the Year. The annual report of Surgeon J. C. Boyd, ting chief of the bureau of medicine and ry, Navy Department, just made public, contains many matters of local in- terest. ‘The neces: Cases of y of increasing the naval hos- pital accommodations for sick and wound- ed officers and men of the navy becomes mare imperative with the enlargment and growth of the naval establishment on this station. Patients are received at this hospital chiefly from the navy yard and marine headquarters, but from time to time they are transferred here from other hospitals, frm coast survey vessels and from other vessels, foreign or belonging to our own mavy, which may be in port; also old sail- ors and marines on the retired list who have no suitable home, and when taken ill find a refuge here. There is but one separate room in which a sick officer can be isolated. Additional accommodations should be provided, so that the two principal floors could be al- jotted to pauents, the lower or main floor to officers and the second floor to enlisted men. The administrative part of the building should be assigned to an annex, whics could be easily built within the present ins closure and in connection with the hos- pital proper, leaving the entire hospital building for its legitimate purposes. ‘The annual estimates submitted for the fiscal year 1899 contain an item of $15,000 for the proposed building. While the health of the navy yard during the past year has not been satisfactory, the intensity of disease was not as great as in the previous year and the number of transfers to hospital and of sick days was less. As compared with 1895, malarial fevers, though very prevalent in the sum- ner and autumn months, were somewhat less common. The persons who have suf- fered most in proportion to their numbers are the seamen under instruction in gun- nery. It appears that the situation of the seamen’s quarters is responsible for some of thix sickness, as their sleeping quarters e the lowest in the yard, and only ten and a half feet above the lowest portion of the grounds. Measures have been under- taken to improve this condition, as it is understood that another building is being prepared for their accommodation. It is undoubtedly true, however, that the health of the yard cannot he secured unless the nacostia flats be reclaimed. esneeicar treatment was given in sixty coses of Injuries occurring among workmen joyed in the yar enPnic the health of the post at marine Peadquarters has been satisfactory during mest of the year, malarial disease has pre- vailed during the autumn, though not to the same extent as in 185, when it caused nearly one-half of the total number of cuses treated. During the year about one- third of the admissions to the sick list were on account of malarial poisoning. With the exception of 1895, when the exacerba- ticn was very marked, there has been a steady increase In malarial disease at this post. It is thought very probable that tases of this disease can be diminished in number and severity by removing the sleeping quarters of the men from the ground floor. During the last quarter of the year there also occurred five cases of typhoid fever. A careful sanitary survey failed to determine a local cause. In view of the frequent arrival of recruits from other points, and the full liberty given the men, the cause was believed to be without the post. It is, however, evident that the dcrmitories are off and also badly plant and that other quarters should be provided: for all those men now sleeping on the floor. Better: facilities are. also. ned, - LABOR UNION’S PROTEST The Rule Against Extra Pay at the Engrav- ing Bureau. Assistant Secretary WVanderlip Re- ceives a Committee, Who Present a Statement of Their Case. A delegation from the Central Labor Unior called at the Treasury today to see Secretary Gage relative to the recent order of the department against extra work and extra compensation in the bureau of en- graving and printing. Assistant Secretary WVanderlip received the committeee and listened to the state- ment by President Milford Spohn of the Central Labor Union. Mr. Spohn told Mr. Vanderlip that the order appeared to be on the verge of a violation of the spirit of the eight-hour law. He did not think that a department of the government ought to be the first to violate this law. Mr. Spohn said that the union was inter- ested only so far as the eight-hour law was concerned. Mr. Vanderlip told the committee that he thought there would be no troubie in preventing a violation of the eight-hour law. Heretofore the bureau, he said, had been violating other laws in paying extra compensation for over time. His idea is to prevent overtime in the future. The committee submitted the following written statement: Hon. Lyman J. Gage, Treasury. Dear Sir: It has been reported to the Central Labor Union of Washington, D. C., of which the undersigned is a committee, that you have issued an order that in fu- ture extra compensation for extra time shall not be paid the employes at the bu- reau of engraving and printing, and what 1s considered the violation of the eight- hour law by those in charge is, as regarded by organized labor of this District, as a matter which required some action. At the clos2 of the foregoing statement were the resolutions recently adopted by the union, and published in The Stur et the time, protesting against the bureau employes having to work over eight hours, and urging them to orgunize for their pro- tection. The statement continues: “The Central Labor Union fully appre- ciates and directs this committee to com- municate this sentiment to you of the splendid attitude which you have taken upon this important subject, and to fur- ther respectfully urge upon you the en- couragement of the organization of the employes of your department, as suggested above. “We have the honor to remain yours, very respectfully, “WILLIAM SILVER, “MILFORD SEOHN, ‘JOHN WEBER, “LAWRENCE DARNELL, “JOHN A.

Mrs. Russell stated that at that time Mag- gle came to the house, and without any provocation, but as the result of a repo:t that Mrs. Russell was talking about her, knocked her down and kicked her in the face and about the body in a shameful manner. She further testified that as the result of the attack upon her, her daughter, who is a sufferer from epilepsy, and had but recently returned home from a hospital, was thrown into a relapse, and is now in a critical condition. —~-—__ Aged Woman Fined for Assault.
