 NEW YORK, Oct. 13.-Miss Clara Bar ton, president of the American Red Cross society, who has just returned from the international Red Cross con- ference at Vienna, said that, excepting this country, the leading nations had passed laws protecting the title and insignia of the Red Cross On this point Miss Barton said:
 There are 2S4 persons corporations and firms who are using the name of the Red Cross as trade mark for private gain. and there are in niimerab1e bodies of people here who have founded Red Cross societies for local purposes and who are in no way connected with the gen. eral organization It was sad to confess that up to the present time tho American congress has passed law for the protection of the sacred emblem of humanity and taken no steps to keep 1t from being degraded The Red Cross delegates were amazed to learn that the wealthy men of the groat republic had not richly endowed their own Red Cross. nor would they understand why our congress had not pro- hibited by stringent laws the prostitution of humanity's sacred emblem

women's rooms were small and dark.
Where there were windows these were
mere Sits In the wall, which did not

The doorway was small and the door
was solid and nearly always closed. The
lamp was usually taper and sometimes
a candle. The room or rooms looked out
upon long hall or corridor, which was
also dark and gloomy, and thisSfn turn
upon an arched and rooted veranda.
