ACCUSED OF ILLEGAL PRACTICE
Mary Mish Is Given a Hearing Be-
fore Alderman Millar.

Mary Mish, of 1925 Cross street, a
midwife accused by Joseph ]. Martin,
96l Cross treet of unlawful practice of
medicine and surgery without being
a graduate of any medical college was
arranged last night before Alderman
Millar.
Attorneys Charles +. Daniels and W.
NJ. Bunnell appeared for the prosecu-
ton while Attorney Clarence Balentine
conducted Mrs. Mlsh's side of the case.
The prosecution attempted to prove
that Mrs. Mish in sending for certain
pills, on one occasion had exceeded
her prerogatives as midwife.
The defense presented Mr.. Beck.
deputy prothonotary, who presented
the medical register of Lackawanna
county showing that Mrs. Mish was
duly registered This, the prosecution
contended, was not necessary pre-
caution as such practitioners are no
longer expected to register
DR.. Roos, of Adams avenue, testified
that although he had never had any
professional dealings with the woman
he had always known of her as COM
petent and painstaking.
Mr.. Balentine asked that the case be
discharged as the law does not require
that midwife should go through any
examination, or be a graduate of any
college, before practicing, and that no
midwife had ever been convicted of any
such charge, citing the case of Lena
Gable, now in quarter sessions.
Attorney Daniels made n response in
which he claimed that Mrs. Mish had
been guilty of the charge preferred
and therefore should be duly punished.
He made a strong argument and the
alderman then closed the case by par
olng the defendant in her attorneys
charge, until he Should deliberate over
the matter
