Th ‘ttention ‘of the Board of Directors was called to the fact that the drug had been used. ‘A meeting of the directors was called, dat which Allen Wardwell, the son o the donor_of the hal; million of dotiars, prosided This was to ascertain wheth- er the deed of gift had been invail- dated. ‘The Investigation by the Medical Board of the hospital showed, accord- ing to testimony heard last night, that Dr. Stewart charges Dr, Neff with not @ivulging to the Board that he dis- covered the nurse had made an error and doubled the dose prescribed for the patient. ‘The Medical Board of the hospital DRUG UNDER BAN GIVEN Prescription Caused Quarrel Between Doctors That Lasts Three Years. ago a pretty, dark-eyed in the Red Cross Hos- Pital on Central Park West misunder- stood the directions of Dr. Dougias Stewart of No. 128 West Eighty- @ixth treet and made an tncurrect entry in a patient's chart. That error was the commencement of an acrt- Monious controversy between Dr. Stew- art and Dr. Louts K. Neff of No. Park avenue which for a time tt ened to invalidate the gift of by the late William T. Wardw former secretary of the Standard Oli Company, to the Red Cross Hospital, and culminated, after three years of Ditterness, in charges hi last night by the Board of Censors of the New York Medical Society againgt Dr, Neff, with Dr. Stewart in the role of com- plainant. When Mr. Wardwell died he left half @ million dollars to tho hospital with the understanding that it should be revoked if the hospital allowed habdit-making drugs to be prescribed to patients. Mr. Wardwell recognized the fact, however, that at times there 4s absolute necessity for such drugs to be administered and a loop-hole was left for their use, when such treat- ment was absolutely necessary. Last night the Board of Censors sat to hear three specific charges made by Dr. fMewart against Dr. Neff, both of whom were at one time connected with the Red Cross Hospital. Two of the charges ‘were considered, the board sitting until early this morning, but the third was dismissed as irrelevant. No action has been taken as yet, and it wa: Jed to- vestigation decided the dose of phe: cetine given by Dr, Stewart was not violating any of the conditions of Mr. Wardwell's will, but that the large Roots, Herbs and Barks. You can no doubt recall the collection of roots, herbs and barks your grandmother made ‘every Fall for the family med- icine chest. It is interesting to note that the most successful remedy for female ills had its origin more than 30 years ago in one of these home medicine chests and Lydia E. Pinkham’s Veg- etable Compound is made to- day in immense quantities from those same roots and herbs with extreme accuracy, care and cleanliness.
