In his open- ing remarks Judge Cooper thanked the audience for their interest as tes- tified by their being present and re- marked that a city of 50,000 people without a hospital would be a sorry one. He tcld of the origin of the local hospital about eighteen years ago when the soldiers, many sick, re- turned home from the Spanish-Amer- ican war. The training school is now in its eighth year and this year's class is the largest to be graduated. Each of the graduates was dressed in the regulation nurse's uniform with white cap and marched through the church as Tynch's orchestra played the ‘“Hippodrome march. Judge Cooper’s introduction of Principal Marcus White of the Normal school as the speaker of the evening was that he was able to speak fluently on any subject and the principal justified the statement. He told the graduates that he has taken more or less of an active part in graduation exercises for forty years, so was not ignorant of the form. He dwelt on humorous reminiscences of graduations of the other days that he had attended and then launched forth into a discussion on the wonderful growth of the medi- cal profession and that of the nurse. He told the graduates that if they can live urf to the kindliness of char- acter and spirit that have character- ized nurses in past years they will be truly hailed as angels. Gifts Are Presented.

Whitman of using the department of prisons for political purposes, assert- ing that he is a believer in the old system of retaliation and brutality in prisons, and declaring that the gov- | ernor has broken every promise he | has ever made to him, Thomas Mott Osborne, warden of Sing Sing, re- | signed yesterday. | Osborne’s resignation was yesterday morning to James M. Car- ter, superintendent of prisons. Tha wire stated that he would give h reasons in a letter to follow the tele- gram. Last night at the Hotel Bel- mont Osborne, through his counsel, Huntington W. Merchant, he made public the letter when he mailed it to Albany. The most striking para- graph in a letter notable for its di- | rectness and fearlessness, .follows: | “I appreciate the difficulties and | embarrassments of your positions. I, credit you with the desire and the intention when you became superin- tendent to conduct your office with fairness and common sense; but the | reactionary forces about you have been too strong. “The governor who appointed you is antagonistic to the system that is being carried on at Auburn and Sing Sing prisons; he has tried to use vou and your office for political purposes; he is a believer in the old system of retaliation and brutality; he has highly praised as the best conducted ' prison in the state the very one where the old conditions in all their vilenoss and horror still prevail. Breaks All Promises. “As for his dealings with me per- sonally, I believed originally in | Charles S. Whitman's friendship ana sincerity; but he broke every promise he ever made to me, both before and after he took office; and I have been finally and reluctantly forced to a realization that witnout his acquiss- cence the shameful attacks made up- on me in Westchester county would never have been initiated or gained headway.” Osborne had nothing further to say that was not incorporated in this loc- ler. He prepared the letter at the University club in the afternoon, re. turning to Sing Sing early in the evo- ning, where he will remain until his successor Is named. Although the rumor of hs resignation had been oir- culated throughout the prison, there was no demonstration of any kind. All the convicts were in their cells when his automobile drove into the prison yard. Neither Carter nor Gov. Whitman was in Albany vesterday when the warden’s telegram of resignation ar- rived. There have been rumors current in the capitol for a long time that Whitmaa intended removing Osborne after the election. Men close to Os- borne have announced that he intend- ed taking an active part against the | Zovernor in the campalgn and his re- moval or resignation has been ex- pected. It was thought for a short time after Osborne’s acquittal of the charges made against him in West- chester county and his return to the prison that he might remain, but Car- ter’s recent orders depriving the mem- bers of the Mutual Welfare league of their privileges brought Osborne’s de- termination to resign and go out in the open and fight Whitman to quick conclusion. vs Carter Broke Faith. wired | ble, the package and the vis | (places where reliable men are vital | the fact none did, { weather off Nantucket aft [ the Morse code but received no Osborne in his letter last night to Carter mentions the orders issued in the prison without his co-operation or even consultation. In reference to this he said: “I regret to say that you have not kept faith. Your recent orders issucd to the prass before they even reached the wardens—thus giving no time to object, to correct or to modify—are such as to make good administration in any institution—state prison or business concern—impossible. You fave forbidden that the public shall have full knowledge of what is going on in their own penal instititions, yet this very secrecy which you would en- force is the very thing that makes pos- sible the graft and brutality of the old system, and still makes possible a { continuance of graft and brutality in one of the state prisons under charge. “Escapes and prison delinquencies which have always existed under the cld system, but have been materially reduced under the new, are made your excuse for spreading abroad doubt and distrust for the Mutual Welfare league and even for the actual destruction of its activity. “For instance in your latest order of October 3 you write: ‘I have de- cided that hereafter the privilege of convicts known as “lifers” and those having long terms must be confined inside the walls of the institutions; this order to take effect at once.’ “Nothing could be more expl imperative. The warden is to cxercise no judgment of his own, the superin- tendent has decided and his order is to take effect at once. Without the head of the institution being consult- ed my office is disorganized, the comp- troller’s office is stripred of every clerk; the forces in charge of the sta- ting rooms your or in order to prevent the inroads of drugs and liquor) are deprived of their responsible heads 2nd most of thelir workers. ccmpany repairing roads in charge of the highway de- partment is demoralized.” In another part of this letter borne says that the publication of ! these orders by Carter in the newspa- pers before they were given to him forgave warning to long timers to es- cape before he had an opportunity to lock them up. He calls aitention to which he says is rroof of the value of the system which Carter is attempting to destroy. SCARES SHIPPERS (Continued From First Page). ceived a wireless warning while off Nantucket on Sunday that a German submarine was in the vicinity. Life- boats were swung out and life belts distributed among the 670 passengers, and the ship abruptly turned her course to the south. Off Cape May the Cameronia entered the three-mile neutrality limit, and hugging the shore, steamed north, not: once going outside the safety zone.

Overdue Fruit Carrier Arrives. Boston, Oct. 10.—The United Frult | Company's steamer Esparta, which was reported last night as overdue, arrived today from Port Limon, Costa Rica. Tt was learned that she was a day later than her scheduls | in leaving the Central American port, | S0 that she did not pass the Nan- | tucket lightship until after the period | in which the German submarine was busy sinking steamers. Several British steamers are load- | ing freight here for European ports, but it was thought that none would be | ready to sail today. | Say Washington Must Be Impartial. London, Oct. 19, 1:45 p. m.—The evening newspapcrs of London in commenting on the activities of the | U-53 refer to the request made by the United States, of Great Britain early in the year to recall British cruisers from trade lines approximate to American waters and American ports, and contend the United States cannot permit belligerent submarines to operate in these same waters. The Westminster Gazette says: “We have amplest confldence ability to deal with the submarine menace, but we are en- titled to expect that the consideration we have shown to neutrals in the exercise of our sea power shall not be audaciously turned to our disad- vantage’ “Washington,” the Pall Mall Gaz- | ette says, “must either put a peremp- | tory stop to the proceedings in this area over which it claims special con- cern or it must withdraw the protest against the surveillance exercised by British warshaps and recognize that | s diplomacy showed lack of for sight and a deficient grasp of practi- cal conditions.” in Deportations Discontinued.
