A woMAN's PER1LoUs RIDE.

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind. Nov. 19.-Miss
Cornelia Wetherton. of Greencastle, reached
the station at that place last night just
as the vestibuled train on the Big Four
was pulling out. and being anxious to reach
New York tonight she grabbed the handrail
of one Of the coaches and was assisted by
friend to mount the step.
By this time the train was moving rapid
ly, and when she tried the door to the YES
tibuled end she found that it was locked
against her. The rain was falling in tor
rents, and she beat upon the door to at
tract attention. but the noise of the train
drowned her rappings on the door, and her
hands soon became SO numb with the cold
that she was compelled to hold on with
both to keep from falling off With her
clothing drenched by the rain. her hair
blown down by the wind and her eyes filled
with the heavy smoke from the engine. she

climbed about half the distance when
Moore also decided to try his hand at the
feat. He had climbed only about twenty
five feet though, when his companion near
the top shouted, Look out, l am coming
down"
Moore says he heard a noise as though
somebody was slipping on the iron and
then he was suddenly struck on the head
by the falling body. He managed to feep
his hold on the iron bars. 1t was quite
dark. but he realized what had happened.
and hurried to the ground, where he found

THE NEW B. & O. DIRECTORS.

ginning to BE Felt.

| BALTIMORE. Nov. 19.-Thut the Penn
sylvania Railroad is factor and an i'm
portant one in the management OF the Bal
timore and Ohio Railroad can no longer be
| questioned. All doubt on this point WIS
removed at the annual meeting OF the
stockholders OF the Baltimore and Ohio here
| today. when Mr. John i. Green. first Vice
President of tho Pennsylvania, was elected
| member OF the board.
The election OF Mr.. Green gives the Penn
sylvania two members OF the board. Suth-
erland NJ Provost. Third Vico President OF
the Pennsylvania. having been elected
member on February ! OF this yenr. TO sue
coed Gen. Louis Fitzgerald OF New York,

day were Charles II. Tweed OF New YORK,

resigned.
The retirement of Alexander Brown
leaves Baltimore and Maryland interests
other than the State without representa-
tion on the board. and confirms the state
ments that the Baltimore and Ohio is now

ern financiers.
The annual report was read and approved.
1t was learned that the directors consid-
cred the absorption of the Baltimore and
Ohio Southwestern Railway. and that the
merger will be announced within sixty days.
Negotiations with that end in view have
been in progress practically ever since the
reorganization of the Baltimore and Ohio.
but have been delayed owing to the oppo-
sition of certain interests. This obstacle, 1t
is said, has now been overcome.
1t is further said that William NJ Green,
formerly general manager of the Baltimore
and Ohio. and now vice president and gen.
eral manager of the Baltimore and Ohio |
Southwestern. will become third vice presi-
dent of the Baltimore and Ohio. with juris-
dictIon over the Baltimore and Ohio South
western. The acquisition of the Baltimore
and Ohio Southwestern would give the Bal
timore and Ohio a total mileage Of about
. 200.
Another significant incident Of the annual |
meeting was the election of Charles II. |
Tweed member of the board. E. II. |
Hartman. who was elected member OF |
the board several months ago. is also |
OF the board OF the Southern Pa |

tors elected by the stockholders four, or |

General of the Navy Chief Carpenter
Josiah L. Keen has been retired with the
rank and three-fourths the sea pay of
a lieutenant. junior grade, and not with
the rank and pay of an ensign, as pre-
viously stated. The Judge Advocate Cen
eral held that under the Personnel act
chief carpenters, chief gunners, and chief
sailmakers ranked with. but after ensigns,
as the act plainly stated, and that there
fore Chief Carpenter Keen was entitled
to be retired with the rank of the grade
above ensign, which is junior lieutenant,
the act providing that officers who have
served with creditable records in The civil
war should be placed on the retired list
with the rank and retired pay of the next
higher grade. Mr.. Keen is consequently
entitled to be addressed as lieutenant and
to wear the uniform and insignia of that
rank.

weylerixins south Africa.

In its hour of assumed but as yet rather
doubtful triumph over the Beers. it would
be salutary for Lord Salisbury's Govern
ment TO remember that the Powers OF
the world have been exceedingly kind to
Great Britain in connection with the war
in South Africa. There was a time when
British military prestige was so nearly
wrecked by reason of unpreparedness,
laundering, and the lack of good tactical
organization that the strongest tempta-
tion presented itself TO several European
nations, to go in and stop the carnage and
tell England that she should not finally
crush the little Dutch communities which
had been able in a campaign OF three
months to fight her almost to a stand
still.
The word was never spoken. Great Brit
Gin was allowed to bring UP more and
moro of her fighters, TO scrape the world
over for guns. supplies. and mules. and
finally. by sheer force OF numbers, to
overcome Boer resistance on any consld-
cradle scale. That ought to be the limit.
The worlds opinion which has tolerated
where it has not justified the British
course, cannot be depended on to sanction
one in imitation OF the iend weyler in
Cuba, which, we are sorry to say, may be
also attempted by our own Government

CARE OF THE INSANE.
Report of the Board of Visitors of st.
EIIzabeth's Asylum.

E1Izabeth's Asylum.
A summary of the work of the Govern
ment Hospital for the Insane is given in
recently submitted to the Secretary of the
Interior. The report is dated July 80.
1900. On that date 2.07S patients were on
the roster of the hospital. OF this num-
Der 1.599 were men and the women Ium-
bered Az. For the year 1Si deaths were
reported. Two patients were discharged
as not insane: 149 were discharged as re-
covered; 65 as improved and IL were IN
improved, but discharged.
The army contributed sos and the navy
1913 of the patients who were in the hos
pital June 30. 1900. The Marine Hospital
had sent in q patients. total OF 95S from
the military service. Transient patients
from the District of Columbia numbered
13i. and 916 in the hospital at that date
were indigents. The criminal class con-
tributed &C cases. Two were private pa
tients. On July so Of the preceding year
the hospital held 13S less patients than
this year. This increase is larger proper
tionately than the increase in population.
a new laundry has been added to the
hospital during the past year and COM
plete sewer system has been installed.
New plumbing and alterations to the
grounds have been effected. new store
house is about to be constructed. and
plans are being prepared for new $1,000
detached kitchen building. for 2oohorse-
power direct connected dynamo and en-
CINE, to cost $4,000; for fireproof stair
ways for the relief building. $4,000; for
changing and renewing the cutters and
roof on relief building, $1,000. and for re-
newing plumbing and firepro0fng lava
tory sections of old building. $4,000.
The report comments upon the fact that
800 more patients than should be accom-
mcdated are in the hospital. and urges
the completion of the house for the en-
ployes which will somewhat relieve the
strain upon the capacity of the building.
For the current expenses an appropria-
ton of S475.c0O is wanted. Fer ordinary
repairs not less than $4,000 will be re-
quired. The caief appropriations required
for improve ments will be to carry on work
Of extension authorized by Congress at its
last session. For rebuilding the stable |
at the hospital, $4,000 will be necessary;
$40. Geo will be needed for electrical ma
and $1,000 for additional plumb |
ing and fireproofing. The grand total of |
appropriation required of the coming Con- |
gress will be sl.012. 500
