CRIMINAL NEGLECT.

Disgraoefui Treatment OF Smsii-Pox Pa
tients In tho Civic Hospital ut Montreal
The Parsmonious Methods OF the Mum.
cipal Authorities Alone Responsible For
the Terrible Condition of A nalrs-Spread-
ing the Disease.
MONTREAL, CAN, October 2S.-The
city has been Mortified by the stories OF
number OF patients who have just been
discharged from the Civic Hospital.
These revelations show terrible condi-
tioa of affairs, and the exposure has Gre
ated profound indignation throughout
the community. The charges, which are
most revolving In their character, were
made against the st. Roches, or the cid
Civic Hospital, situated at the base OF
the mountain, and under the care
of the Sisters OF the Gray Nun.
There are at present $50 patients
confined IN this hospital. To
attend this large number of the afflicted
there are only SIX nurses and two woman
servants. The care of the patients has,
therefore, been most outrageous. The
fault Is due in no respect 10 the Sisters,
whose self-devotion and care during the
present epidemic have won for them the
gratitude of the community. The out
rage is due again to the parsimonious
conduct of the city officials, who,
although they must have been aware OF
the terrible manner In which the inmates
were being treated, yet seem to have
done nothing whatever. The same in
capacity that has characterized
them throughout is shown IN these
events. No money should have been
spared to obtain the proper assistance,
and yet all that the city would pay to
women to attend the afflicted in st.
Roches Hospital was IS a month, and the
men received $l2. The consequence was
that it was impossible to procure proper
nurses, and the patients, instead OF being
attended to by competent nurses, were
left for the most part TO the convalescent
patients, who were entirely ignorant OF
what was required.
A patient was thrown from the ambu
lance BY two drunken drivers, and died
from the shock. man who was con-
valescing also had his leg broken by
fall, and, lay and died from the injury,
the condition Of his leg having only been
discovered after his death young
Irish woman named O'Connor, who was
engaged to be married to man in the
hospital, became demented because he
had died on the day she arrived there.
Men strapped her to a bed by order OF
the nurse in charge. Several parties de-
clarcd they never had any medical at
tendance.
1t is likely that this hospital will be
condemned and destroyed.
The isolating squad with three ambu.
lances unveiled some terrible scenes dur
ing the day. In one place on Young
street the police had to take child by
force from its mother, the unfortunate
creature fighting for it till she tell ex-
hausted, She ran about screaming and
finally fell In fit. On recovering she
utterly refused to go to the hospital with
her child and was left in her squalor.
Que of the most distressing scenes OF
the epidemic was witnessed to-day at st.
Cunegonde. smallpox patient in fit
of delirium rushed out into the street
screaming that the devi! was alter him,
He managed to elude his pursucrs for
some time.

THE OHIO ELECTION.

Legal Proceedings to Determine Who Were
Properly Elected Senators From Hamil-
ton CountyA-Judge Buchwailcr's Decision
Adverse to the Dissolution of the Re-
strainlng Order On the County Clerk.
CINCINNATI, o., October 27.-Judge
Buchwa ter's little courtroom was
crowded to lis utmost capacity yester-
day morning by attorneys, candidates
and citizens interested in the result OF
the legal proceedings before him in con-
necton with the delivery of certificates
of election to the four candidates for
Senator from Hamilton County. The
matter had been argued and submitted
to him on a demurrer and on a motion
to dissolve a restraining order hereto
fore issued by him in favor of the four
Republican candidates on their petition.
He rendered his decision at considerable
length, holding as to the demurrer:
l. That there was no mi>joinder OF
parties; that the four candidates could
sue together or separately.
2. The court had Jurisdiction, not to
declare who should hold the Office, for
that was clearly the province Of the Leg
islalure upon contest; but to declare
who was entitled to certificate, for that
was personal right separate to the title
of office.
He held it was not necessary, in order
10 obtain the aid of the court TO prevent
irreparably injury, to do more than make
out prima facle case. While in this
case the averments Of facts In the petit
tion were insufficient, yet the plaintiffs
were entitled to amend on that particu.
lar, If necessary, aud in any case they
were entitled to an order to stay the
hand Of the Clerk until the merits OF the
case could be determined in another
court. The injunction was therefore
continued in force, and the msndamus
case, involving the same points, was
taken up by the Circuit Court

three times with pistol. Roder was at

residence of Smith for the purpose Of
