In BAD SANITARY CONDITION.
Members of the State Health Board Make Unfa-
vorable Reports About Public Institutions.

The first regular meeting of the reorganized
State Board of Health was held yesterday. Dr.
Lomax, the Republican member, who was ap-
pointed by Governor Gray, was present. and
acted with the Democratic members in the pro-
eeedings. The contemplated contest of the
legality of the new boards right to supersede
the old members will, it therefore seems, not be
made The proceedings of the board yesterday
were wholly of routine character. DR.. w. A.
Fritsch submitted report of his visit to the
southern prison, atJefersonvile, for the purposes
of investigating the causes of the typhoid fever
epidemic. He said that he found the prison
Harrison counties in bad sanitary condition,
and, upon his recommendation, the board di-
rected the secretary to request the authorities to
enforce the law. DR.. S. S. Boots reported that
the Soldiers Orphans Home and the Asylum
for Feeble minded Children, located at Knight
town. were not in good sanitary condition, and
The board ordered that. if the defects are not
remedied within reasonable period of time
che authorities shall be directed to enforce the
law against the trustees of the institution DR.
Seawright reported that he had found Attica and
Charlottesville in good sanitary condition.
DR. Boots called attention to the failure of
many Of the county health boards to properly
organize by neglecting to adopt rules and regu-
lations. The secretary was directed to notify
them to conform to the requirements of the law.
A resolution was adopted approving the work
of the State Sanitary Society and requesting a
conference of the executive committee of the
society with the health board.
The Secretary of State, under whose authority
tie health boards clerks are employed, gave
notice that he intended to increase their salaries
The board however doubted his authority to
increase their expenses without their consent
and ordered that the salaries remain unchanged
DIR. Aietcalf, the secretary, and DIR. Boots,
were appointed a committee TO revise the rules
and regulations of the State board. DIR. Sea-
wright was detailed to visit Marshall county for
the purpose of making sanitary survey, if it
should become necessary. after which the board
adiour0ed

the Allegheny Valley railroad and, by the way,
one OF the best. has been for some time mem
Der of the National Benefit Association of In
danapolis, Ind, which has been organized but a
few years, and of which all, or nearly all, the
railroad men are members. Mr.. Taylor some
months since went among his fellow employees
and showed the advantages of the national asso-
citation, and induced many of them to join.
during the past year number of the new mem
bers were injured in the line of their duty, and
were paid through Mr. Taylor from $40 to $25
per week while they were disabled. The differ
emit members of the association met short timc
since and appointed a committee consisting of
Frank p. Fair and d. G. Kennedy, who pur-
chased beautiful badge, and at o'clock last
evening large number of railroaders met at the
office of Robert NJ. McChesney, train dispatcher
at Forty. third street. They sent for Mr.. Tay-
ior, who had just come in from running picnic
train, and Mr.. James Martin, of the freight de-
partment, presented the badge to Mr.. Taylor in
a neat speech. The badge was inscribed ''Pre-
sented to w. G. Taylor May 80, 1885, as token
OF esteem and respect by members of the
National Benefit Association, of indianapolis,
Ind, by employees of the A. V. r. r." After
Mr.. Martin got through Mr.. Taylor attempted to
respond, but strange as it may seem, he was

first instance on record in which he did the most
of the thinking and the least of the talking A
number of speeches were then made, among
them being that by Mr.. John T. Cunningham
who has been the general agent of the company
in this city for long time. He told of the bene-
hts OF the association its plan of organization
how much had been paid for deaths, accidents
and sickness, after which the meeting.ad joprned,
all wishing Mr.. Taylor good luck and putting on
record for the first time in the history of the
world the fact of the members of an insurance
company presenting the man who induced them
to join with a token of esteem.

Suit ON a Sale of Bank Stock.

Yesterday there came to trial before Judge

a claim of $3.50, 000 the plaintiffs being William
Needham, Peter j. Banta, Peter Ditmars Jane
E. Ketcham, Fred A. W. Davis and John L.
Ketcham, of the old Indiana Banking Company,
and the defendants John c. Wright, John C.
New and Samuel Miller, of the old First
National Bank. This suit has been pend
ing over a year. and is brought
upon allegations that plaintiffs were damaged to
the extent claimed in sale by defendants of a
large amount of the First National Bank stock
to the Indiana Banking Company. The plant
ifs claim they were ignorant of the true value
OF the stock sold to their partner in the bust
ness of the Indiana Banking Company, the late
VIM. II. Morrison, who paid for the stock out of
the partnership funds. They charge that the
First National Bank stock thus purchased was
not OF the value represented and therefore,
seek damages The trial win be of
considerable interest in financial circles, and
will probably be on throughout the week. Yes.
