After the bids had been read Aid.
Reeves moved the acceptance of the
university site. Aid. Brazie seconded
this motion with speech strongly in
favor of the university site.
He stated that he was fully informed
and fully able to state the motives and
objects of the board of regents in max
ing this proposition. They had offered
site which was sufficiently large and
otherwise desirable for the purpose and
only asked in return that the medical
students be extended the same privi-
leges that have always been
accorded to students both here and
in all other cities; namely to be allowed
to visit the hospital to observe the prog
ress and treatment of diseases. There
would be, he said, no experiments by
students or anything of that sort,
neither did:the faculty ask that members
of the faculty be allowed a voice in the
management of the hospital. DR.. Bra
Zie then called attention to the fact that
the princlDal objection to this site came
from DIR. Phillips and others who were
interested IN another medical college,
and stated that he could see no reason
why this should be, as Dr. Phillips pu-
pills would be granted the same priv
ilegeS as those from the university. Aid.
Schwartz moved as an amendment that
the sites be visited before selection
was made.
Aid. Lowell suggested that many of
the proposed sites were not sufficiently
large; others were too expensive, and
others were not desirably located. and
that all but seven or eight of the propo-
sitions be thrown out and the others
acted upon. The following were Sc
lected as worthy of consideration:
Bryant and Fifteenth avenue north,
$4,000; Twelfth avenue north and Lyn-
dale avenue, $4,000; Seven-and-a-half
avenue south and Lake street, IS, 700;
Portland and Franklin avenues, S22,-
600; Ames hotel. $4,000; Free univer-
sity site; Fourteenth avenue south and
Eighth street, $4,000.
1t was then decided that those of the
committee as could should visit these
sites during the afternoon and the bal
ance this morning, and that the COM
mittee should meet this afternoon and
formulate report.
