Dr. Reeks says he ex pects to be able to open the new hos- pital about January 1, 1924, The new building will have room for about 125 additional patients. There will be 146 new beds installed and about 40 will be transferred from the old hospital, making a total of between 185 and 200, These figures are closo approximates, In addition to the present staff there will be need for 356 additional nurses, making a total of 70 or more; seven new head nurses, an additional instructor for the nurses' tralning school, four more internes and five additional - orderlies, The kitchen force will be increased about 60 per cent and the laundry force about 75 per cent. At present there are 28 nurses in the hospital, Of these, three still re- main of the last graduating class, and six more will graduate this summer, There are 26 pupil nurses there, nine head nurses, one instructor, two in- ternes and three- orderiies. In the laundry nine persons are employed and five work in the kitchen.

She will need 10 additional student nurses before June 1 and is planning to open a new class in the near future, The hospital is extremely busy, in fact, there is a long waiting list of people who want private rooms. One evening this week seven new patients were admitted within a few hours. With the completition of the new building the old building will undergo & thorough remodeling. The rooms will be changed, so as to permit of the free use of wheeled stretchers where necessary and a large part of the building will be remodeled for of- fic purposes.

PICKS WATERY GRAVE Unbalanced, Ocean C. L. Pierce ds. G L Sulli- Grotta War Hcro, Mentally Jumps Overboard From Liner and is Drowned. New _ York, March 14—William Slidell, of Boston, member of an old Louisiana family, whose grand- father figured in the Mason and Sli- dell incident with Great Britain dur- ing the Civil war, committed suicide Monday by leaping from the steamer Providence, the captain reported when the vessel arrived here today from French and Italian ports. Wit- nesses of the tragedy told the captain Slidell appeared to have been suffer- ing from a hallucination. Slidell was a graduate of Prince- ton, class of 1901, and held two war decorations. Slidell was the grandson of John Slidell, American political leader and diplomat, who while he was Confeder- ate commissioner to France was taken from the British steamer Trent with James M. Mason, the Confederate commissioner to England, by Captain Charles Wilkes of the United States navy. This occurred in 1861, Slidell was imprisoned at Fort Warren in Bos- ton harbor but was released in Jau- uary, 1862, at the demand of England. He proceeded to France to obtain rec- ognition of the Confederate states but failed. He remained in England after the war and died in London in 1871. Siidell had a villa near Marseilles. Slidell left several letters, among them missives addressed to the cap- 5 |tain and other ship officers, declaring that he was being hounded by unnam- ed persons and asking that an investi- gation be made if anything happened! to him. Captain Marcantette said Slidell had been acting in a peculiar manner for several days and that he had two phy- sicians examine him, both of whom reported that he was unbalanced and suffering from hallucinations. The captain then detailed several members of the crew to keep an cye on him.

R. Das, president of the Indian National con- | gress, recently in session here. He up- held vigorously the ideal of self-gov- erngnent, and asked what was the jdeal Indians should set up before them? What Is Nationalism? “It & nationalism,” he declared, “but what is nationalism? It is, I con- ceive, a process through which a na- tion expresses itself, not in isolation from other nations, not in opposition to other nations, but as part of a great scheme by which, in seeking its own expression and therefore its own identity, it materially assists the self- expression and self-realization of oth- hal search is being made M.

WALL STREET STOCK ENCHANGE REPORTS The advance in yesterday's market Lrought a large volume of over-night selling orders which gave a firm tone to opening prices today. The initial demand was most effective in the rail, steel, equipment, rubber, sugar and motor shares. General Electric ad- vanced a point and was followed into higher ground by Baldwin, U, 8. Kteel, Studebaker, Crucible and Amer- ican Sugar all of which opened frac- tionally higher, Wall Street, 1:30 p. m.—Buying continued into the afternoon. Over a score of industrialists and special- ties were quoted beyond yesterday's final figures with California Pet., Stewart and Marine pfd. scoring the largest advances, Marking up of the call money re- newal rate to 5% per ‘cent failed to halt the operations of speculators for the advance who apparently based their campaign on the excellent show- ing made in the latest series of 1922 earnings statements, DBuying was quite diversified but recent favorites, .|such as the sugars, motors, motor ac- cessories and equipments were fore- most in the rise. Considerable activ- ity’ also developed in shippings which had been dormant for a long time, N. Y. Central was an outstanding ex- ception dropping a point on the an- nouncement that directors had de- ferred action until the next meeting. High Low Close Am Bt Sug .... 48 4T% 4T% Am Can .
