The university regents above named at
tended the session of the board at the
Mark Hopkins Institute yesterday after
noon and voted upon the proposition to
admit the Hahnemann HOSPITAL Medical
College to affilIation with the UNIVERSITY
The vote did not turn squarely on the
merits OF allopathy and homeopathy.
The question whether it was good policy
10 authorize the atfiiiation entered largely
into the discussion. 1t Is said this point
influenced the vote.
When the debate OH the matter begun
to show some signs OF animation Regent
Rodgers moVtd that the board go into
executive session. The m otion prevailed.
The members voting against secret ses-
sion were: Governor Budd, John Z.
Budd, Jeter, Coomb s, d 'nicke, Foote,
Reinstein and Slack-S. Eleven regents
votei for discussion with closed doors.
At the session of the Legislature when
large sums OF public money we're asked
for to support the university great stress
was laid on the oft-repeated assertion that
the regents in the management OF The
trust confided to them served without pay
ana held open sessions. 1t Is the custom
now when anything occurs OF more i'm
portance than allowing some weary pro-
lessor a leave of absence to 60 into execu-
tive session at once.
Doctors James w. Ward, George II.
Martin and C. l.. Tisdae representatives
of the homeopathic school, attended the
session as spectators, but were excluded
from the secret session. The same rule of
exclusion applied 20 the sialwart allo-
paths-Doctors Rosenstirn and Mont
gomery.
Before the vote was taken Regent Rod
gers from a special committee submitted
a N q m a
to the committee. TIE report was ad-
verse to the application of the Cooper
Medical College and the College of Phy-
siclanS and Surgeons OF San Francisco for
an order granting the degree OF bachelor
of sciences TO their graduates who shall
have previously pursued a three years
course In the university.
A direct report was not made on the
Hahnemann College applica ton.
The committee report cited the law per-
tanning to affiliations and in conclusion
recommended for adoption the following
regulations TO apply to all applications for
utilization:
First-Such college should have been in sue
cessiul existence for five years before app.ica-
ton.
Second-It should have trustees devoted to
lis educational Improvements and not in any
way financially interested in Sc curing any OF
its income.
Third-It should have a faculty OF men of in
tegrity and OF recognized ability and standing
in the profession.
Fourth-Ijs courses ana standard OF study
should be equivalent to those OF the most eff
cient like institutions, and If college should

ualy.
Sixth-It should not be in conflict wi tn any
existing department OF the university.
Seveuth-No utilization shall be had until al

We further recommend that the following
provisions be included i'll ali agreements OF
affiliatIon:

staff to be approved by the regents.

charge Of a committee TO be provided by the

an annual report TO the regents.

upon any failure 10 carry into effect the ar
ticles of agreement.
Either party may terminate the atfiliation
upon giving notice twelve months before final
action.
authorized by the Board OF Regents.
All the affairs and records of the affil ated
college shall always be subject TO inspection
by the regents.
The opponents of utilization won the
contest or the general line that admission
would produ discord and dissension in
the university-ihati it would be mpossi-
bic for the TWO schools of medicine to
agree.
The boari took a recess until next Tues
DAY at II A. NJ.
