BILL TO REPEAL THE CHARTER OF TIE
MEDICAL SocIETY.-In the Senate yesterday
Mr.. Sumner reported bill from the Com
mittee on the District Of Columbia repeating
the act to incorporate the Medical Society Of
the District Of Columbia, approved July 4,
1888. Accompanying the bill was q lengthy
report, covering twenty-five pages Of legal
cap, stating that the COMMITTEES had heard
the testimony Of both sides aud examined
the papers thoroughly, giving every oppor-
tunity to the original society FOR explanation
aud even for practical modification Of the
proscriptiye policy II had adopted. The
report then quotes from tho charter and
constitution Of the society TO show that any
test OF membership on account OF color was
without sanction In either the charter or
constitution, and the application OF such a
test Is In the nature OF an abuse or tyranny,
not forbidden In positive terms, but con.
demned by reason and humanity. And
eitea two regulations adopted by the society
inconsistent with the charter, which are
First, that establishing tariff Of fees for
medical attendance and second, that for

hat DR.. Augusta states that members OF

The report further declares that when the

Yonkers until the answer TO ner telegram came
from Portland. When the Doctor 1rst put in an
appearance at that place he was heard to remark
that the only person be knew in that village
was a Swedenborgian clergyman, whose ac-
qraintance he had formed in the army, where
the latter was chaplain and he himself assistant
surgeon. This gentleman was informed OF the
circumstance after the missing man had left,
bat he failed to recollect having met Foster in
the army, and not until he was sought out by
Mrs. Foster and reminded of certain circum-
stances in connection with his quondam associ-
ate did he succeed in calling him to mind. Then
Mrs. Foster was struck dumb. After listening
to her candid story, the clergyman felt it to be
his duty to inform her that, while stationed as
Methodist minister in Portland, q few years
ago, he became acquainted with Foster, who
was then medical student; that subsequently
the latter had seriously injured his reputation
by a supposed intimacy with divorced matrou
named Southgate, who kept lodging-house for
young gentlemen and in whose establishment
Foster dwelt and always appeared at home. The
relationship which was believed to exist between
Foster and this woman gave rise to a great deal
of scandal, and resulted finally In his departure
from the city. After listening to this painful
story. Mrs. Foster eft Yonkers in great haste
for Portland on Tuesday, before an answer had
been received to her telegram to Mrs. South
gate.
Subsequent to her departure it was ascertained
by the police at Youkers that before leaving
Mrs. Mannys clearinghouse, on the 9th in
slant, the Doctor was laboring under consider
able excitement; that he had been very particu-
lar in his inquiries about the Jersey shore oppo-
site the town; that he was especially anxious to
learn how far inland the railroad was located,
and that he took with him on his departure q
small package containing change of light
underclothing. The latest news from Yonkers
is to the effect that he is still missing" while
from Portland comes the significant despatch
that Fosters mysterious disappearance sis pro-
badly trick as the man was there only six
months and was then considered an impostor." "
And thus the story ends for the present II
the policemen who are searching the woods
about Dudley's Grove for DIR. Fosters body
should happen to stumble upon it, this solution
of the mystery, albeit a painful one,. would be
eminently satisfactory. But, as the matter
stands, there can be but little doubt that Foster
is just what the Portland Press regards him,
'an impostor," and his pretended disappearance,
under circumstances leading to suspicion of
foul play, neat but transparent device for
shaking off his recent associations preparatory
to another escapade.
