A Pottsville despatch Of the Sth inst,

covery was made at the Schuylkill
County Insane Asylum, connected with
the Almshouse, Tuesday by the COM
mittee of the Board of Public Charities.
The committee was composed of ex-
Judge Donaldson, ]. A. NJ. Passmore
and Charles II. Woltjen, a well-known

mates of the asylum two young women
Mary Jane Donegan and Maria Maley
both of the milder forms of mental
unsoundness, who are enciente, and
who at lucid intervals charge their pres
ent condition upon JamesMeehan, whose
present whereabouts are not known.
Until last April he was an employe OF
the asylum. The facts here stated were
known to DR.. Edward HuntsinGer, ply
slcian in charge of the insane depart
ment, for months, but were never re.
ported to any officials by him. He says
he was informed by the President of the
Board of Poor Directors that William
Brennan, the keeper of the insane, had
sole charge of that institution, and that
Brennan knew all the facts. President
McGrath denies the charge.
