HOSPITME BOARD RESICNS Three Physicians Quit as Result of Head Nurse Embroglio. SAY LET TRAINOR HAVE HIS WAY Drs. M, B, Lemere, ¥. W. Lake and ¥. B.

Coulter, who constitute the medical ad- visory board of the County hospital, have resigned In a body, the Board of County Commissioners getting notice at the moet- ing Baturday morning. The action Is taken, aceording to Dr. Coulter, because Commissioner Trainor, the new chairman of the board's committee on the County hospital, overruled & num- bet of récommendations of the medical ad- visers. It is likely there will be & return to the old chief of staff system which was in vogue untll Commissioner Joff W. Bed- ford, a year ago, inaugurated the medical advisory board. VIt meems advisable to us to resign,' sald. Dr. .Coulter, “because the advieory board is not In accord with the chairmin of the committee on the County hospital, and we thought he ought to be permitted to work out his ideas of how the hespital should be conducted in the way he sees fit. It 18 not out way.” Dr. Coulter Intimated further that one of the fecomrhendations referred to was the report of the advisory board that Miss Lena Higgine, Head nurse, be removed. This was when thé embroglio occurred at the hospital some time ago. Dr. Lake subdequently withdrew his rec- orfimendition with respect to Miss Hig- gins and Dr. Coulter at the time also modified his' view somewhat. Nevertheless it 18 @ fact that the three physiclans were not pleased by the action of the Board of Qounty Commissioners at the time.

In this year 1910 we have another ne brand. They call themselves ‘insurgent’ fepublicans, whatever that may mean. Originally It meant those who wanted to have more liberal rules in the house, a movement which had my sympathy. But failing to convince & majority of the house which makes the rules, It ‘was turned into a personal warfare against Speaker Cannon, who only exercises the power given him by a majority of the house, and no one can question his loy- alty to the republican party. “Now the “Insurgent” craze has gone be- yond Mr. Cannon, and is selecting as lambs to be led to the slaughter republicans, tried and true, in varlous states: In Nebraska, Just at this time, Benator Burkett seems to be the especial target. ““The prosperity of the country is going along very well"with the wise and experl- enced hand of Willlam H.

UNIONIST TIDE IS STRONGER Gain Friday is Larger Than That of Previous Days. ALf PARTIES CLAIM VINDICATION ‘Riots and Mobs Mark the Voting in Some of the Distriets a “Dump” Exhibita Are Burned. LONDON, Jan. 22—The results of yester- day's balletting for members of Parliament thus far available show that the unionist tide flowed even stronger than on the two preceding days. Thirty-elght constituencies out of 8 gave the unionists 27 seats, the liberals 10, na- tionalists 1. The unlonist gains were 17 and the liberal gains 3 The state of the parties as known at 10:30 this forenoon was: Government coalition— Libera I8 .. Irish-Nationalists Laborites . The ‘unionists have made steady gains op the popwar vote almost throughout England, and to a much lesser extent in Scotland’ and Wales, but all partiés ana tactions ‘of parties claim the results are a vindication of their policies. The unionists stoutly claim that the re- sult s a ‘victory fof thriff reform. The liberals deny it stubbornly. They declare that the feudal status of the counties is re- sponsible for the conservative gains, and charge the triumvirate—the landlords, the church and the publicans—with overawing their dependents and followers by practic- ing widespread iptimidation and threaten- ing them with loss of work. From the op- position pofnt of view the conservatism of the counties Is due to the loyalty of the people to the House of Lords, their fear of soclalism and a desire for protection.

NEW YORK, Jan. 22.—Complete harmony between the east and the west prevafled last night at the annual meeting of the United States Golf assoclation. The old constitution was repealed and a revised constitution drawn up by Lelghton Cal- kins of New York was adopted. The most significant change Is the reduction of the annual dues for active clubs from 350 to $30. The $10 fee for the allled clubs, which have no voting privilege, was retained. Through the whole Instrumegt runs a democratic spirit, almed at making the organization national. Clubs which have only nine-hole courses are now specifically mentloned as eligible to active member- ship, and no geographical Interpretation can be put on any article, as in the old constitution, The principal discussion was over Iimit- Ing the use of the votthg proxies. No restrictions has ever been put upon them, but in the new by-laws they were limited to five for any delegate, In addition to his home club vote. Several wished to restrict thelr use to one, In’addition to the delegate's own vote, but Chicago and Boston men objected 8o strongly that the New Yorkers oapitulated. The amateur champlonship was awarded to the Country club of Brookline. This is the first time that the event has gone to Boston. That club prefers a July date, but will def to the wishes of the executive committe: as to time. The Homewood Country club of Chicago gets the women's champlon- ship. Any date wished will be granted. This probably means another October con- test. The Philadelphia Cricket club will hade the open championship, probably in Au- gust. The membership of the association re- maine the same as last year. These of- ficers were unanimously chosen: President, Herbert Jacques, Country club, Brookline; vice presidents, W. A.

Refuse Demands of Trainmen Further Conferences Are Asked and Men Are Confident They Will Be (tiven Raise in Pay, NEW YORK, Jan. 2 —The announce- ment today that the New York Central, the Erie and the Lackawanna railroads had refused the demands of the Brother- hood of Rallway Trainmen, Including the conductors, was discounted tonight at the eastern headquarters of the trainmen. “Although it is definitely known," said Secretary P, K. Willlams, “that all of the rafiroads east of the Mississippl river and north of the Ohlo will not wccede to the demands it should be upderstood by the public that the railroads’and the trainmen are working harmoniously and all talk of a strike is premature, if not foolish. “Our demands have /veen turned down today, but each road has expressed a wish for a further conference, which clearly indicates that more money ls coming to the men." CLEVELAND, Jan. 21.—President W. G. Lee of the Brotherhood of Rallroad Train- men and Grand Chiet A. B. Garrettson of the Order of Rallway Conductors will meet In the east Monday to enter for- mally upon the negotiations which will de- termine the outcome of the present dis- pute between the rallroads and thelr em- ployes. President Lee announced tonight before leaving for Chicago that he has already picked out one rallroad on which will be made a test of the trainmen's demands, Neither he nor Grand Chief Garrettson, hawever, have intimated to the employes' committees which road this ls. Owing to the fact that the replies re- celved are uniform, the two brotherhood leaders belleve that a settlement on the one road will lead to a similar adjustment on all the others. The real dlspute, It is conceded, will come on the question of payment to the train crews for the work done before start- ing on the day's run. The men want pay from the time they report for duty. The statement of Chairmap J. C. Stewart | of the General Managers' associatlon, that | wages will undoubtedly be ralsed, was re- celved with satisfaction et the Brotherhood headquarters here, “The railroads are meeting us In the same spirit of fairness as we are meeting them,” said President Lee. I cannot say when the negotiations will open, but ft will be mighty soon—probably as soon as Grand Chief Garrettson and I arrive in New York." * Mr. Les will be In Chicago Saturday and Sunday, in the matter of the yardmen's demands there.
