G. & o. HOSPITALS.

The questions of establishing and
maintaining hospitals for the use of
sick or injured railroad men belong
ing 10 the C. & o. system has been
under discussion for several years
by its officials. And it would now
seem, az a result of these delibera-
tions, that the time has arrived for
making practical test of the plan.
Other great railroad lines have es-
tablished hospitals for the comfort
and relief of their sick or crippled
employees, and 80 far as the Review
is advised most beneficient results
have followed. With equal condi-
tions, and under wise and liberal
policy, so characteristic of the &. IL
o. management, similar good re-
suits will be accomplished here and
the hospital system be made as pop
ular as it is on other lines.
With a view To the early adop-
ton of the hospital system on the
e. Il o. Railway, Mr.. George W..
Stevins, the general manager of the
company, has selected committee
of four trustworthy railroad men
an engineer, conductor, n fireman
and a brakeman-andf furnished them
with round trip passes to go TO ST.
Louis and Moberly, Mo-, to investi-
gate the hospital system on the Wa
bash and Pacific railways. Mr..
Charles A. Craft, of Clifton Forge,
who will leave on his mission to-
day, will represent the brotherhood
of Locomotive Engineers, and will
be joined ut Huntington and Gin
cinnatl by representative from
each of the other branches of the
train service named. DR.. Brock, of
Richmond, one of the company's
surgeons, will also accompany the
committee.
The Review understands, that be.
sides minute inquiry into the mat
ter by the committee, to ascertain
the benefits to be derived from an
| institution of this character, the
Chesapeake and Ohio railway com.
pany proposes to erect and own tn,
hospital buildings, and not to ia,

& U. company further, we learn,
proposes to make up any deficiency
which may occur in maintaining
their hospitals after collecting from
Is to so cents per month from al
employees who have worked a hall
month or more.
The Review believes that the re.
port of this committee will be fav.
orable to the adoption of the hospit.
al system on the &. Il o. railway
lines; and it further believes that q
large percentage of the employees OF
the road will acquiesoe in the opin.
ion that the movement is wise
and beneficlent one, and will heart

Gladys Inn, admirably located
and constructed, need not remain
idle long after It's abandonment a
few months hence as hotel. 1t is
just such building as is needed for
first-class railway hospital, and
the Review is informed it will be
used for that purpose in the even,
it shall be decided to adopt the hos
pital system.
Of course there will be other hos
pital buildings erected; one posi-
bly, at Huntington, and another at
some suitable point east of Clifton
Forge.-Clifton Forge Review.
