GERMAN BENEVOLENT SOCIETY.

Proposition to Change tho BYLAWS
Overwhelmingly Defeated.
One of the largest meetings Of German
citizens ever held in San Francisco took
place at Druids' Hall last evening, about 275
being present. The meeting was called by
the officers of the German Benevolent So
ciety to take action upon proposition to
amend an article in the bylaws relative to
the outside or city physician for the Ger
man Hospital, which places his appointment
in the hands of the board of directors. This
article has been In force since tie organiZa-
ton of the society. The proposition was to
make the Office elective. At a previous
meeting a Committee of five was appointed
relative TO the proposition, TO report at last
evenings meeting, which was presided over
by Isaac Hecht, with Eugene Roemer as
secretary.
The committee reported that should the
society choose to amend the constitution and
bylaws II should not adopt the proposed
amendment offered at the previous meeting,
but should amend them as now proposed oy
the committee. making the Office elective
providing that the board of directors should
have the right to discharge the physician so
elected at any time for good and sufficient
reasons and appoint his successor. The re-
port was accepted and, vote being taken.
the proposition to change the bylaws
making the Office elective was defeated by
an overw helmug majority.
There was very little discussion during
the meeting, which was marked by harmony
and good feeling throu ghOut.

very profitable one at best; but he denies
The widows charges that he has been ex-

He admitted on the stand that while In
February, 1890, he returned the assets at
