NOW OPEN TO AMERICANS.
French Universities Extending Priv
tleges TO Foreign Students.

Official Information has been received
In Washington by the Franco-American
committee, organized for the purpose OF
securing fuller privileges for American
students in the educa tional institutions of
France, that in all probability the faculties
Of letters will soon be open to Americans
as freely as the other faculties that lave
already been opened.
There are already fifty or more American
students enrolled In the French faculties.
Since the PRONUNCIATION OF the decree Of
January last, changing the regulations in
the faculties of science, the number q
German students in the French faculties
has increased from fifty-two to one hun
dred and twelve, of whom only sixteen
are students of medicine.
The admission OF foreign students to the
Medical schools gave rise to serious de-
bate in a recent session Of the Chamber
of Deputies, it being claimed that French
students wereexposed to undue competition,
on account of the influx Of foreigners, who
by reason Of graduation are entitled to
practice medicine in France, and this with
out being subjected to military duty. 1t is
proba BILE that the regula tions will be
modified so that foreigners will not bs
hereafter entitled to the privilege Of
practice, although the facilities for study
and the obtaining OF degrees will be as
good. or better than heretofore.

marked That Such Complaint Was
Not New ana Promptly Imposed
a Fine-Brutei Was Bleeding.

Judge Miller, in filming William j. Beard,
the boss of the Eciiingtoi Railway stables
for, cruelty to animals yesterday, warned
him the company tmust discontinue work
Ing sick horses. Officer John Reipslinger
OF the Humane Society testified against

day on street, between Fourth aud
Fifth, noticed one, OF their car horses
and sa wit had large sores on the shoulders,
the collar resting directly on them.' Every
movement of the icollar scraped the raw
flesh, dripping with blood"
Reips!inger said the horse was thin aud
poor and totally unfit for work. -
NOT THE FIRST TINE.
Il have numerous complaints about the
way these poor car horses are treated"
said the witness, land have three or
four cases in here every monrh, but it
doesn't Seem to do much good; the COM
panies keep on working the brutes."
Mr.. Herbert F. Allen, a Times reporter,
described the horses condition.
"The blood was oozing out of each
shoulder said Mr. Allen.
Mr.. Beard had TO say that it was mighty
funny the horse was bleeding, because the
scabs on his shoulders were not broken,
when he got to the stable.
FRIEND TO HORSES.
II happen TO know something about these
horses" said Judge Miller. "You know
when horse starts car they almost get
down on their knees on the cobble stones
to get the car under way, and ail the strain
is right oD their shoulders. There is not
piece OF the harness that can hurt them
except the collar, as In this case.
And l want to tell you," added his
honor emphatically, "they cannot be worked
In this way; 1t is inhuman"
The driver said: 1.-The horse got to
sweating, Judge. and the collar CALLED him
q little"
IA little, eh?" queried the court Didn't
you know the horse was suffering? tell
you collar gall is a severe thing, and should
be looked after at once. These animals
must have protection at once. The defend
ant is fined So"

the City.

his children, who are still dependent upoI
him for support, although living with their
mother
Mr.. Armes said e had no idea of leaving
this section of the country, as he is kept in
Washington by business ties. In fact, he
still has his office at No 14Oo street
and visits it from time to time.
OF course, he has extensive business in
terests in other States, which may call
him away at times, as has been usual with
him, but he will invariably return to Wash
ington, when his business is finished,
and will be found on hand when the case Is
tried. -.
There will be no need for the President
to order him back to Washington he says
Major Armes said that he believed that
there would have been no contention be-
tween him and his wife this time had it not
been for the intervention OF outside parties

AFTER MANY DAYS.
Revival of a War Incident as Result
of Inquiry.

Revival of a War Incident AS Result
of Inquiry.
Auditor Farrow of the War Department
recently asked t he Commiss ioners for
any information that might be gathered
from the records of the health department
concerning the death of Lieut.. Lewis
Graham, late of Company E. Sixteenth
Vermont Infa ntry Volunteers. BY q sinSu-
lar circumstance he obtained instead the
contents of a story in the National In-
telligencer of March 81, 1863, which
showed that the officer committed sui
eide while temporarily insane at a board
ing house kept by D..J. Barrick on Penn
syivania avenue.
There was but little data upon which
to base a search OF the files. The i'm
preston was that the man had been mur-
dered, and it was to determine this theory
that the inquiry was made.
Mr.. Clifford Howard of the secretary's
office, District building, volunteered to
briefly inspect the files of the paper and
within a very few minutes was attracted
by the notice OF q suicide, and the item
proved to be of the man in question. The
particulars were promptly communicated
to the auditor.

There is SO much complaint, and SO much
trouble constantly arising as to the re-

to be the only solution.

BOWLER DECIDES A POINT.
Repairs to Columbia Hospital to B.
Supervised by Trustees.

hepa1rS TO COiumDia dOspitai 10 be
Supervised by Trustees.
Hon. X. B. Bowler, comptroller OF the
Treasury, to whom was referred the ques-
tion raised recently as to whether or not
the repairs to the Columbia Hospital, for
which a special appropriation Of $4,000
was made by Congress, should be under the
supervision of the District inspector OF
buildings, has rendered an opinion in the
negative.
Mr. Bowler says from the reading of the
item it Is apparent that only new con-
structiOn, or repairs amounting to recon
structiOn, would come under the inspectors
supervision, and as the repairs required
to be made are not of that character, it
is his opinion that the trustees OF the in
stitution shall have control Of the appro-
priation.

PENNSYLVANIA RESERVES.

Naval Militia Highly COmplimented
by Inspecting Officers.
The report OF the officers detailed TO
attend the encampment OF the Pennsyl-
vania Naval Militia shows that the body is
well organized. The Workmanship during
the practice was remarkably good. The
commanding officers have fitted them
selves admirably for their duties. The
discipline was excellent.
In discussing the probable field OF useful
ness in time OF war the board are OF the
opinion that the militia would find no place
on regular man-of-war in the open sea or
In the outer line OF coast defense, but would
be of incalculable benefit in the inner
defenses.

Thin people are thin because the food they

have an aversion to fat? This is of itself proof
