furnishing medicine and medical attendance
To state the case properly and to the point,
submit the following facts: 1st. The $1,000 ap-
preparation made last spring fol- that purpose
mas been long since exhausted. I'd. That 1t was
an insufficient amount Is eyinced by the fact
lhat IL served for six months only. Sd. The only
institution at present giving gratuitous advice
ana medicine to the poor is the Central DiSpen-
Sary. private charitable enterprise 4th This
institution supplies medicine only to walking

Gedlidden 10 remain without attention. 5th
very lew ply SicanS will voluntarily leave a

SatlOn, and with slender assurances OF having
their prescriptions compounded. 9th. That eX-
pefiehced physicians and not diplomatic third
course students should attend them. an attrac-

Poratl0n invariably made ample provision to
supply this necessity the whole year and the
physicians salaries aggregated 81 200 per an
mum. eth. There has been frequent newspaper
comments Of the INDECENT sick dying without-
medical attendance. 1t remains for Congress to
leglslate at once. remedy the cause. and pre-
