THE ASYLUMS.
How Hospitals for the Insane Are
Sometimes Managed-Doctor
Clevinge's Testimony.
A Chicago Institution Ruled by
Boodlerism, Not Humanity
or Science.

CHICAGO, May 22.-Inquiry as to the
state of affairs at the Cook county insane
asylum to-day shows that Doctor Cleve-
inge, formerly member of the medical
staff there, testified it was impossible for
reputable practitioner or attendant to
st y there. The most disreputable ones
were the ones to stay, because they de-
voted more time to intrigue. The disrepu-
table ones practiced a system of elimina-
ton of the better element ny either ply
steal evidence or other means.
ga 1885," said he, the physicians who
secured bodies at the asylum for dissec-
ton told me the bodies we're so covered
with vermin that they had to be secured
before being put on the dissecting table.
Once in 1855 l heard screams, and, run
mig from my Office, found two attendants
starving out patient named Hertzling,
who was bleeding profusely. 1 knew
there was no use In making any com
plants, as the attendants were sup
ported by John Cummings influence
on the county board. Soon after they re-
belled and refused to obey my orders.
They secreted bodies on which l desired
to hold post norton examinations, and
could not get them for two OF three days
after they were buried. 1 published a
statement, and the following night one of
the attendants called me vile name, and
few months LATER shot was fred down
stairs, the bullet crashing through the
floor and lodging in my book case"
Soon after this the doctor resigned.
"What's the matter with the institution
now?" was asked.
"Its under the influence of boodlerism !;
it's in a bad place; on inselubrious ground.
There should be new buildings for the
males Us well as the female patients. No
building should have more than 500 pa
tients, because it is impossible for one
man to oversee more. Then the county
board should be knocked out and the asy-
lum put into the hands of state commits
sion"
The doctor told how boodlerism had
prevented investigation.

MARTIAL LAW.
Process of Ejectment Raises Mob in the
Town of Guthrie.

Process of Ejectment Raises a Mob in the
Town of Guthrie.
GUTHRIE, o. T., May 24.-SoldIers were
yesterday called out for the first time since
the opening of Oklahoma, and for several
hours the city of Guthrie was practically
under martial law. Meetings held every
night for week by men who lost their
lots through contests and by the opening
of streets eliminated in a riot. One Ct
the best lots in Guthrie was awarded by
the board of arbitration to a
man named Driscoll, of Chicago.
An Old man by the name of
Diemer, of Kansas, occupied the front
of the same lot with a tent. Driscoll
erected building on rollers ready to
shove it to the front as soon as Diemer
should vacate. Recently the council
passed an ordinance empowering the
marshal to eject any person whose claim
for lot had been elected by the arbitra-
tion board. This would affect over a
thousand persons. The city government
made a test case of the Driscoll- Diemer
contest.
Inc marsnRl proceeueu 10 remove
Diemer and his tent. Immediately mob
of 1,2OO men collected and drove the mar
shall away. The mob was about
to attack the city hall when
Captain Cavanaugh arrived upon the
scene and dispersed them, after which the
city authorities resumed the work ot eject
ing Diemer. Diemer fought like a tiger
and had to be dragged from his tent to
the street. Driscolrs building was rolled
forward. The mob attempted to tear the
house to pieces, but this time the authori-
ties were able to repulse the angry men
without the aid of soldiers. Last night
soldiers guarded the principal streets, and
more trouble is anticipated when the work
of ejectment is again begun.

A Republican Kicker.

WASHINGTON, May 24.--Hon. Andrew
Gleason, who always goes as q delegate
from the District of Columbia to all the
republican national conventions, and who
assisted at the nomination of General Har-
rison, says he is diagusted with the presi-
dents policy. Mr.. Gleason says: "The
president seems to think himself too good
to consult with the party leaders on mat
tiers of policy. He is pIgheaded, obstinate
and is satisfied with his own good opinion
of himself. If the democrats will put up
some man like Arthur p German for the
presidency next time, 1 for one will vote
for him, and know thousands of other
republicans who will do the same thing"
1t is believed that Mr.. Gleason's antipathy
is aroused on account of the civil service
policy of the administration.
