pany Action was taken by Judge Taft in
the United States Circuit Court at Cincin-
natl late Tuesday night, on motion of the
Mercantile Trust Company. of New York
The suit was brought in the Eastern divi-
sion at Columbus, o., where Judge Taft
had been sitting. but the appointment of a
receiver was not announced until the
judges return to Cincinnati. The action is
explained on the simple fact that the road
is in need of reorganization in consequence
of inability to earn enough to pay it's fixed
charges. The feceivership is regarded as a
necessary step towards a reorganization
which will put the property on a paying
basis. The road runs from Sandusky to
Shawnee, in the southeastern Ohio coal
fields a distance of about two hundred
miles The dulneSS in the coal trade for
the past two years has cut the roads

EIGHTY THOUSAND TONS DR. OSENSENS SRAVAS |
NOTED SAN FRANCISCO DOCTOR

On a Tour of the World to Secure Da-
ia for the Proposed Sanitarium at
Berkeley.

DR.. j. Rosenstein. one of the ablest
physicians in San Francisco and
very well known clubman, is pas
senger on the 5. 5. China. lie has
just started on a tour of the world,
during which he expects to visit every
sanitarium of note on the surface of
the globe, with view to ascertainiug
how each is conducted and with what
success. Upon his return home, the
results of his Investigations will be
laid before a board of the most not
ed medical men in California, who
propose TO erect at berkeley the larg-
est sanitarium in the world. and to
devote to it their best efforts with
view to making it u great medical
center and adjunct TO the state Uni
versity.
work be commenced before DR.. Roscn-
site for such an institution on ac-
count of the purity of the atmosphere
in that vicinity, the evennesS of the
temperature and its proximity TO a
great city, making it easy to secure
for the visiting staff of physicians the
best specialists of the day. 1t has
long been the ambition of San Fran
cisco medical men to have such an in
stitution, and the time now seems to
be ripe for it, The necessary fnan-
cial support is available, and the
building site is already selected. But
no plans will be made. nor will the
work be commenced before DR.. Rose
stein returns home with the desired
data.
DIR. Rosenstein is member of the
California State University faculty.
and a favorite with the college boys.
He is also popular in the clubs. where
he spends much of his leisure time
while at home. On his present trip.
however. he does not intend to spend
much time in seeking social pleasures.
He has Il big task before him, and
once he gets fairly started on the
work. he will have but little leisure.
In speaking of his trip at the hotel
last evening the doctor said

DR.. ROsenstein expects to be over a
year on his travels. OF course the bur-
den of his work will be in Eurone.
where the greatest sanitariums in the
world are to be found. Among other
things he will secure plans of the
greater institutions, with a view 10
getting ideas for building. Most of the
data he wants are of an exact sclen-
tific nature. so that the result of his
work will be of the utmost value.
