FOUNDING HOSPITAL CASE
The Grand Jury Decides Against
the COmplainants,
Say the Institution Is Not a Nuis-
aBce, But Neighbors Retain
Their Original Opinion.

A report was made yesterday afternoon
by the grand jury Of lis Investigations of
the Founding Hospital, which waves aside
the complaints made against that institu
ton.
Several prominent people living in the
neighborhood of the hospital charged it
with being public nuisance, stating that
the continual crying of the infants pre-
vented them from sleeping.
The grand jury's report is in the nature
Of a warm Endorsement of the hospital,
though it finds some things To criticise.
1t Tecomme nds mere nurses and suggests
that the infants ought TO lie sent to the
country during the summer. The report
states that the hospital is in excellent san
itary condition and a wellconducted in-
stitution. 1t continues:
While there is some annoyance from
the crying or babies during the warm
season, as has been testified by respectable
citizens, we know Of no remedy TO stop
1t, and do not think the grievance OF
those complaining sufficient to justify
us in declaring this humane and useful in
stitutiGn nuisance.
We recommend, however, that the au-
thCrities be requested, and. il possible, re-
quired, tn double their present force of
nurses for night duty. as the present force
is inadequate to properly care FOR the
children.
We further recommend that if it be pos
sible 20 do 50 the children be moved TO the
country during the heated term Should
a suitable place be obtained for these help.
less infants during the warm months it
would be OF great benefit 10 the chill dren
besides removing the existing cause OF COM
plant OF the residents, as they complain OF
40 annoyance at other seasons
Although tie grand jury decides that
it is not nuisance, the la bics continue
to scream and the residents of the neigh
Dorhood continue to stuff cotton in their
cars.
Tines reporter called on a number Of
those who testified before the grand jury
and they slIowedno surprise at the verdict.
.-Jnst what we thought, was the general
verdict.
Mrs. Robbins, of I71O Fifteenth street,
and MIS-. DR. CoIgTove, who resides on the
corner of Fifteenth and streets, said that
nothing else could be expected after some
OF the most foolish questions that were
asked.
We are almost frantic said Mr.
Edwin Dinkerly, the gentleman who pre-
ferrcd the charges My wife has had
70 leave, and and my children are going
next week We have actually been driven
out Of our home. The songof the telegraph
man, Hush, little babies, don't you cry:
you'll be angels 10y and by, is coming true,
for there have been six deaths there since
rhe 1 st of July.
1T would seem as il we would be re
lieved OF some OF the noise by the deaths
OF 50 many of the little ones, but as fast
as one dies there is another TO take its
place.
Mr.. Dinkerly intends. through his law
yers, W. MGR Clayton, to enter suit for
damages, and fully believes he will win.

was required for the consideration of the
bill
Mr. Dingiey replied that 1T was privi-
legged question. as 1t related TO the reve-
nues of the Government, and the Speaker
so ruled.
A short explanation OF the bill was made
by Mr.. Dalzeil, after which Mr. MeMillin
of Tennessee and Mr. Ridgeley OF Kan

bill.

Committee on Public Lands, asked and
secured unanimous consent for the ccnsid-
Grafton of a bill relative to the location

time in explaining its provisions and an
swering questions in regard TO it.
Mr.. Simpson could not resist the in
ciination To remark that he feared the

cheap gold dollars, TO balance the present
cheap silver dollars.
MI. Gaines of Tennessee congratulated the

fact that in the closing hours OF this ex-
