HORRIBLE BRUTALITY.
Treatment of Insane Womea in an Iiiinoi
Aims House.

Treatment of Insane Womea In an iiiinois
Aims Rouse.
CHICAGO, January 5-The reports Of
the horrible treatment Of insane women
in the Dupsge Couuty Aims House, are
declared in an official statement to Gov.
Fifer, tonight, to be we'll founded. The
statement is signed by DR.. F. Il Wines
and Rev. O. g. Sruesdell, both
members Of the State Board Of Chari'
eies. Tne women were covered with
filth, naked and ate of the reekiDg floor.
When bathed at all it was by male attend
ants, and at night the women's cells were
left unlocked, exposing them to the dam
gers Of criminal assault by meu about the
place. The two women thus treated were
incorrigible, and to this fact and the ig-
norance and carelessness Of the keeper the
report attributes the disgrace.
Both Of ths women have been
removed to the State Asylum, snd the re-
port recommends legislation to give the
State Board Of Charities Jurisdiction over
the county authorities in such cases. One
of the women was insane when dozen
years ago she arrived from Germany. A
law is recommended to the Legislature
giving the State Board power to return
such patients to the place from which they
came
