The Commissioners are disposed to OBJ

porations for the purpose of assisting in
placing underground wires. The United
States Electric Lighting Company request
ed the Commissioners to allow the use of
trees along various streets upon which 20
place block and tackle for the purpose of
pulling wires into the conduits by horse
power. The Commissioners have approved
report made on the subject by Assistant
Engineer William P. Richards Mr. Rich
ards states that the request is in line with
others heretofore made. He believes the
policy of allowing trees to be used for
the purpose indicated is a bad one He
recommends that the request be disallowed,
as it will not work especial hardship
against the electric lighting company, and
suggests that crowbars or stakes driven in
the ground will answer the purpose as well
as the trees. If the work referred to was
always done with the proper care Mr..
Richards says, there would be no great
objection to it. but the workmen employed
in laying these wires are not subject to
close inspection and their carelessness often
results in great damage to city trees.

nccessOr to Sister Beatrice at Prov
fdence Hospital.

lueHce f1OSVltAI.
Sister Louise Carey of Providence Hospi-
tai has been appointed to the position of
sister superior of the hospital. to succeed
the late Sister Beatrice. Sister Louise. as
she is known within the hospital commu-
nifty, has been at the institution for about
twenty-three years, during which time she
has been the assistant to Sister Beatrice.
Being well acquainted with the working of
the institution. her selection for the place
at the head of the hospital was decided
upon in short time. 1t is understood the
medical staff of the hospital was anxious
for her appointment.
Sister Louise, in addition to serving as
the assistant of Sister Beatrice, has been in
charge of all the private patients at the
institution for a number of years. She is
about forty years of age, and Providence
Hospital has been her only station. it is
said, since her entrance to the order of the
Sisters of Charity. She is native of New
York city.
The appointment of Sister Louise means
that the hospital will be conducted upon
plans conforming to those in operation un-
der the administration of Sister Beatrice.
Providence Hospital is under the direc-
ton of the Sisters of Charity of this coun-
try, who have their headquarters near
Emmittsburg. Md. Mother Mariana and
the Rev. Robert Lennon are the directress
and the father general. respectively, of the
order in the United States. The order was
first established in this country in 1915.
when the society was Incorporated by the
legislature of Maryland. There are now
about 1.s00 sisters in the order in the
United States, and they have charge of
many homes and asylums throughout the
country, some of them even being institu-
tions where the insane are cared for. Prov
idence Hospital, while not ranking in size
with the largest of these places, still has
Importance from being located at the ma
tional capital, and its high position in the
matter of accommo odatiors and medical
treatment is well known.

FATAL DOSE OF ACID
Robert Hervey, Onion Veteran, Takes
His own Life.
DRANK POISON N VRE'S PRESENCE
Was Crippled BY Wound Received
in Battle.
OTHER FFLICT ION s

Robert Hervey Cor Bob Hervey, as he
was more familiarly known) ended his life
| this morning by taking big dose of a
strong solution of carbolic acid. He COM
mitted this rash act at his home, No. 1903
F street, where he resided with his wife.
Surgeons Whitson and johnson Of the
| Emergency Hospital staff responded to a
| call sent in announcing the facts, and
reached the bedside of Hervey before he
| died. They used every effort for his relief,
| but the dying man did not even regain
consciousness.
Hervey took the poison about 11:30
o'clock, and half an hour later he was a
corpse. DR.. Whitson, resident physician of
the hospital, said that no power on earth
! could have saved the man after he took
| the dose-a large one of strong solution.
! His wife was in an adjoining room when
death claimed him. She Is Frustrated with
grief
Bob Hervey was a native of Pennsyl-
vania, having been born in Philadelphia
| ffty-six years ago. He entered the army
| at the outbreak Of the civil war and was
| just twenty-one years old when he was
wounded in battle and lost his left leg. A
number of years ago he came here to take
a position watchman in the War De-
partment, and became quite we'll known
about the city.
He was a member of Lincoln Post, G. A.
H., ana was q IaHlllldT uIe III dllu
Army circles.
Troubles Multiply.
Several months ago new ailment devel-
oped in the nature of an ugly sore on his
leg thought to be the result of the wound
incurred in the army. physician was
called and carbolic acid used in dress
ing the sore. Several weeks ago Hervey
began drinking to excess, it is stated, be-
cause of his suffering, and a few days ago
he lost his position in the War Department
The loss of his place did not alleviate his
trouble, and he continued to patroniZe the
saloons, SO the police were informed. This
morning Hervey and his wife left their
room in the hotel and went out to see the
parade. Probably in anticipation of what
he intended to do, the husband suggested
that they return to their room before they
reache-. Pennsylvania avenue. His wife
was willing, and they went back. They
when the husband, in the presence of his
wife, picked up the bottle of acid and drank
the fatal dose.
Called for Assistance.
Mrs. Hervey, frightened at what her hus-
called for help. Others rendered what as
sistance they could, and no time was lost
in getting the Emergency Hospital sur
geons. AS already stated, the latter did
what they could, but were unable to save
him.
Policeman Warren of the first precinct
was among those who responded soon after
a call for help was made, and he assisted
the doctors. Coroner Carr was notified of
the occurrence. An inquest will probably
not be held there Is no mystery con-
nected with the death of the veteran.
1t is likely that his body will be taken to
Philadelphia for interment

Filipino Government Cannot be Rec
Ocnized
A cable dispatch was received from Gen.
Otis yesterday giving an account of the
meeting with the insurgent ENJOYS near
Angeles. Secretary Root took the dispatch
to the White House for the consideration
of the President. The dispatch said in SUBJ
stance that the interview with the insur-
gent ENJOYS showed conclusively that the
leaders were maneuvering solely with a
view to secure recognition of the insurgent
president and insurgent government which
they claim is organized there.
All such overtures were rejected and Gen
Otis Informed them that the only thing
that the United States would recognize
was white flag and the grounding of
arms. He also informed the ENJOYS that
such capitulation on the part of the insur-
gents would come quickly to avoid conse-
quences of active war as the United States
does not intend to permit any dalliance in
the matter.
The course of Gen. Otis is approved by
the War Department. it is felt that no
compromise can be made with men in arms
against the government.
