STATE BOARD OF HEALTH
Candidates to be Examined Under the
Medical Practice Act.

Candidates to be Examined Under the
Medical Practice Act.
A meeting of the state board of health is
being held at New Haven to-day to appoint
time and place for the examination of
such persons as may apply to be examined
for the practice of medicine and surgery
and midwifery.
The law provides that persons who have
to be examined before they can be regis
tered may make application to the state
board of examination, choosing which of
the three committees they will be examined
by, and the board will appoint time and
place within thirty days thereafter for said
examination. Secretary Lindsey will fur
nish blanks for applications to those who
wish them.
Graduates of medical colleges recognized
as reputable by any one of the chartered
medical societies of this state, are entitled
to registration without any examination.
There are at the present time us medical
colleges in operation in the United States
and Canada. But of these only 1O3 are
recognized by either of the societies as re-
putab!e. s~ss
There were 1913 persons who registered
as medical practitioners or midwives pre-
vious to October l, 1898, and 176 others
between that date and the 31st of Decem-
Der, making total OF 1424. VI these 80
are residents of other states, living mostly
in towns bordering on the. boundary lines
of Connecticut.
At the meeting to-day County Health
Officer Hoadley made a sensational report
concerning the violation of the law re-
lating to the registration of births. He
said that in Meriden over three hundred
violations had occurred and in Waterbury,
out of $50 births returned, there had been
slxty-four violations of law.
Thk number of deaths in the twelve
months of the year compared with the
same for 1892 was as follows:

PAID THE COSTS.
Gilbert and the Daley Girl Released From
Prison This Morning.

Katie Daley. the young women who was
arrested in this city for abandoning a child
at the Aldrich house. New Haven, and
William Gilbert, also of Waterbury,
arrested for being party to the abandon
ment, were released by the New Haven
authorities this mornIngon payment of SIS
costs. Gilbert is employed in the factory
of the Randolph & Cloves Co, and
this morning Chief Egan telephoned to
New Haven to the effect that Randolph d
Cloves has forwarded check in payment
of the costs named. Gilbert and Miss
Daley returned to this city on the one
o'clock train. They have agreed to marry.
1t is alleged that the man who was the
cause of the girl strouble has since married
and induced Gilbert to protect the girl by
marriage.
Another feature of the case is that
Henry NJ. Perry of New Haven has
adopted the abandoned child and taken it
to his home. The women signed an agree
ment of adoption before City Attorney Fox.
Neither Gilbert nor the mother seems at all
distressed about the transfer of the child
to Perry. On the contrary they appear
much relieved.

ANOTHER WRECK.
Southern Tourists Killed and Manned In
South Carolina.

CHESTER, S. c., January Unlimited
train. No. 80, from New York to Florida,
over the Richmond and Danville road, was
run into by Georgia, Carolina and Nor
thern train at crossing in this place,
about o'clock this morning. Twenty-Five
persons are either killed or badly injured.
The sleeper of the limited train was filled
with people, and was struck in the centre
by the locomotive the Georgia, Carolina
and Northern train. Not person in the
sleeper escaped death or injury. The day
coaches were also well filed and several OF
them were turned upside down on the side
of the tracks.
The passengers on the sleeper were
mostly prominent Washington and New
York people on their way to Florida.
Those in the day coaches were making
short trips south. Most of the passengers
on the limited had retired when the
terrible crash occurred. The sleeper was
crushed like an eggshell by the terrible
blow it received. The passengers who
had escaped serious injury were stricken
with terror and it was some time before
they realized what had occurred and be-
gan to help the crushed and manned peo-
pie whose pitiful cries could be heard
coming from beneath piles of wreckage.
The crushed and overturned cars with
their dead bodies and bruised and bleed
ing passengers presented CHASTITY specta-
cles. Many of the dead are so terribly cut
and torn that identification will be i'm
possible. The terrible scene was intenSi.
fled by the darkness and it was some time
before lights were procured for the
rescuers, who quickly removed the dead
and injured. The injured were placed on
hastily improvised cots and cared for by
the passengers who had escaped. Fortu-
nately there were several physicians
aboard. They escaped injury and rem
dered good service to the injured.
WASHINGTON, Jan IA special from
Chester, S. c., states that the early reports
of the wreck were exaggerated. 1t is said
that there were only ten passengers in the
sleeper and only three received fatal in

WILL TEST THE POOL LAW

bridgeport Case Yesterday Appealed to
the Superior Court.
\ thorough test of the anti-pool law will
be made i'll Bridgeport, when the appealed
case of Albert Falk comes up for trial in
the superior court there. Yesterday morn
ing Falk, the manager of Il reputcd
brokerage office on State street in that
city, was arraigned in the city court and
entered a demurrer, which was overruled
by Judge Kane, who fined the accused SO
and costs Falk appealed, bonds being
fixed at 5000.
1t WAS believed that Falk 4 Co dealt but
little in stocks and bonds. The habitues
are more interested in the current quota
tions of race courses than in Chicago gas.
The manner in which the scheme is
worked is as follows: A man addicted to
playing the horses, pays to Falk q Co $40
for transmission to any track. No horse
is specified, and the local Office charges n
commission, which, it claims, is perfectly
as legitimate as charging a commission on
money sent to DreXel, Morgan IL Co. or
any other bankers. Then a second tele-
gram is sent: Put so on such and such n
horse, less commission both ways"
Prosecuting Agent Klein has no man
ner of doubt that the whole business is n
deliberate attempt to evade the law.

RAILROAD AFFAIRS.

Consolidated Road.

Trying to stop Competition With the
Consolidated Road.
The city of Providence originally guar
anteed the bonds of the Providence and
Springfield road to the extent of $500, 900.
Before that road passed into the hands of
the New England by lease these bonds
were called in and permission was given to
issue 81 100000 of new bonds. The city
was asked, under special law permitting
it to do so, to guarantee the bonds to the
extent of $3.50 900. The city council
voted to do this. but certain taxpayers APP
piled for an injunction. The petitioners
are all stockholders of the Consolidated
and the effect of their petition, if granted,
would be to debar the New England from
building line to connect with its present
road and to stop competition with the
Consolidated for western business, which
would come into Providence and Boston
via Webster. The case was heard ycster-
day and decision reserved.
The suit of Hulda L., wife of Clarence
5. LOOMS, against the Consolidated road
for so, 900 damages because of injuries re-
celved by falling on the steps in the Hart
ford depot is now on trial in the superior
court at Springfield. The suit has been
tried twice before.
