WASHINGTON, May 2O.-An opinion of the
United States supreme court in the case Of
the United States VS. John d. Hall, was,
today. subject to earnest discussion among
the officials of the general land Office. One
of the points at issue was that Hall had made
oath before a notary public. The supreme
court decided that where an oath is required
by United States statute, that oath can be
administered only by an officer of the United
States. Hence, notary public being state
officer, can not administer oaths to United
States officials, except the statutes specifically
state the oath may be made before such state
official. This opinion, it is believed seri-
ously affects the status of more than hun
dred thousand cases in the mineral division
alone of the general land office. Deputy
mineral surveyors have for several years. it
is said sworn to the correctness of their
statements before uotares public. During
the last four years large number OF cases
under the general land laws have been re-
ceived for patent at the general land office,
where final proof was not made before the
officer designated by law for the purpose.

Passes Belief.
TWO DEMoNlcAL ATTENDANTS.
A Former Patient Tells How They
Killed n Daft Inmatc-The Broken
Arm and Shattered rib OF
the Witness.



CmcAGo, May 20.-The most horrible reve-
laton yet made in the investigation of the
Chicago public insane asylum, was that
reached to-day in the testimony of George
Hill a locomotive engineer, now employed
by the Lake Shore lS Michigan Southern
railway. He was admitted to the institution
in January, 1883, suffering from slight
mental doranGement, and was discharged as
cured in the following May When he went
to the asylum an attendant named Lott asked
him If he was insane. Hill said he was not.
"Well," replied Lott, tive will make you
damn sight msanor than you are now"
Another attendant named Julian ordered
Hill to sweep ont room and ON saying he
had not come there for that purpose,
knocked him down and kicked hlm in tho
body and mouth, knocking two teeth out.
Hill tried to cover his face by getting his
head beneath BENCH when Julian turned
the bench over, breaking Hills arm. Hill
rolled up his coat sleeve IN court and showed
n huge lump where the ends of the broken
bones badly joined. stood out. They knocked
him down, he said, and broke one of his ribs
His arm caused him great pam and he could
not get proper treatment. He tried
to seek the doctor, but Julian told him If he
dared to speak he would kill him right there.
One day Hill had an opportunity of convers-
ing with Supervisor Jones and told HIM he
was BADLY treated Afterwards TWO attend
ants knocked him down and held him while
Julian repeatedly kicked him in the head and
breast. On getting up with blood running
from his face, Hill said he would have JUS
tice some day whereupon Julian cursed him
and Knocked him down and kicked him
again.
Hill said n new patient named Levy was
brought in one day. He did not know enough
to go to the dining room, and Attendants
Julian and Lott knocked him down and
jumped on his stomach until he was unable
to move. Taey then picked him up and
threw him on a bed Levy died that night.
The court room was still as death dur
ing this awful recital. Judge Pendergast i'm
structed the witness to bring in his wife to
corroborate his story, and n physician was
detailed to examine Hills arm and ribs
Several other witnesses testified to the
brutality of the attendants, the miserable
quality of the food etc.
County Physician Todd testified that
Robert Burns, whose death resulted in this
inve stigation, did not die of consumption, as
was stated by Superintendent Herman on
the certificate of death. ......
The defendants in the petition for the
dismissal of the matron of the Home for In
curablcs, and certain officers of the institu-
tion, for cruelty and mismanagement filed
their answers to day. All charges are
denied.
