A RIGID INVESTIGATION
MEDICAL BOARD SCRUTINIZING Os-
TEOPATHIC INSTITUTIONS.
Twenty-Five Applications Now Under
COnsideration-Some Colleges
Will BE Recognized.

The State Board of Medical Registration
afternoon and until late last night. The
evening session was held at the Denison
Hotel. The board has under consideration
twenty-five applications of osteopaths who
desire licenses to practice in this State.
Under the new law graduates from osteo-
pathic colleges recognized by the board
may practice their profession, providing
they administer no medicine.
The board issued no certificates at this
meeting. The time last night was prin-
cipaIly taken up in investigating the stand
ing of different osteopathic institutions in
the country. The board is scrutinizing the
records of these colleges closely. One of
the members said last night that thus far
the board has discovered nine institutions
where osteopathy is taught that will prob-
ably be recognized. Further investigation,
however. may reveal others that are all
right. A member of the board said: after
We have completed the list OF osteopathic
colleges that are to be recognized we will
then issue certificates to those osteopaths
in the State who are already practicing
under the old law, and who hold diplomas
from these institutions. Hereafter, how
ever, any osteopath who comes into the
State TO practice must undergo the usual
examination, no matter how many diplo-
mas he holds or from what college they are
issued.
THE number of osteopaths has increased
materially in this State since the new medi-
cal law was enacted. In many instances
magnetic healers and other healers who
would not be allowed to practice under the
new law have changed their mode of prac-
tice and are now advertising themselves as
osteopaths. 1t is a very simple matter for
them to get hold of a diploma, as those
institutions known as diploma mills are
grinding out plenty of product. 1t is TO
shut off anything of this sort that the
medical board is now devoting its ener-
gies. We expect to be very thorough in
this investigation of osteopathic institu-
tons, and when we have decided which of
the colleges to recognize We will turn down
diplomas from all others. This board will
require that every man presenting a di-
ploma from an osteOpathic institution must
show that he has taken four terms of study
of five months each in some reputable col
lege."
The board will meet again two weeks
from last night to complete it's investiga-
ton of the osteophathic institutions.

Argument in the Gates Case.

Judge Carter, of the Superior Court, yes
terday afternoon heard argument in the
Gates baking powder case" on a petition
for a writ of mandate to compel the secre-
tary of state to print the law with the
words 'bitartrate of potassium in
serted where they are scratched
out. Assistant Attorney General Mer-
rill Moores, for the State, said
that the Indiana courts had always re-
fused to tamper with enrolled acts filed
with the secretary OF state and never In
quired into the stages through which a bill
passed after it left the hands Of the Cover
nor with his signature. Ferdinand Winter
appeared for Secretary of State Union B.
Hunt individually and commended that he
did not want the printing of the State laws
hindered by the action of the plaintiff. Mr..
Jameson. of the firm of jameson IL Joss,
argued that the act had gone to the Cover
nor with the words "or bitartrate of potas-
SUM inserted, and that, as he did not veto
the act, il became a law without the words
actually being inserted. He also said that
when an act passes through the hands OF
the Governor the secretary of state shall
Immediately furnish the State printer with
comics.

Delaware d Hudson shares advanced
over eight points on the New York stock
market yesterday, as compared with Tues
days closing price. the rise being con-
current with r~evivals of the report that
the long discussed New York Central lease
had been actually signed. 1t was stated
that the lease provided for a guarantee
by the New York Central of Z per cert. for
the first year. and of per cent. there
after. At the Delaware & Hudson office
this report, both as TO a lease and the
alleged terms. were denied.
The New York World will say this morn
ing: 'The Vanderbilts have secured control
of the Delaware & Hudson Railroad by the
purchase of a majority of the caDital stock
in the open market and terms are being
discussed by which the New York Central
Will take control. 1t is understood the New
York Central is TO guarantee Z per cent. to
the stockholders and it is not improbable
that the Lake Shore deal will be exactly
duplicated-that is, New York Central will
issue 31e per cent. 100-year collateral trust
gold bonds at the rate Of $500 In bonds for
each share in stock. 1t was impossible yes
terday TO get any official statement regard
ing the change of control. though Wall
street has known for several months that
the Vanderbilts have been heavy buyers of
the stock. BY the purchase of Delaware
a. Hudson the Nanderbilts have made an
important step in j. p. Morgan's plans to
control the anthracite output. The Della
ware * Hudson Company produced from its
own mines over 4,00O, 900 tons of anthracite
coal. The Vanderbilts and Mr.. Morgan now
practically own the coal business"
The New York Herald says that Presi-
dent Galloway and President Olyphant and
numerous officials and directors of the road
unite in saying that there is not a word
of truth in the rumOrs bearing upon the
acquisition or lease of the Delaware & Hud-
son.

An Important Ruling.

A Utah court has made a ruling to the
effect that a railroad company is not bound
to give a reason for the discharge of an
employe from it's service, and can dis
pense with the service of the man with or
without cause. The case was that of two
men employed on the Oregon Short-line.
who had brought suit each for $1,040. the
amounts they asserted they could have
earned from the time of their discharge
to the filing of the suit if they had been
given clearance papers by the railroad COM
pany so that they would be able TO Sc
cure employment on another road. The
railroad company was Violation of the rule
regarding the use. of intoxicating liquors
When on duty, but the men denied having
violated the rule. The court held that the
men had no recourse if the officials did not
choose TO give them clearance papers.

DR.. VAN HUMMELL'S SUIT
HE CLAIMS THE MARTENS FLATS
ENCROACH On HIS PROPERTY.
He Sues for 81 900 damages and Eject
ment-Gates Case Argued
Other Court Cases.

Suit was filed yesterday by DIR. Henry
Van Hummell against Hiram +. Martens
for ejectment and $1,000 damages. The Pc
cuniary consideration may be very easily
handled, but the ejectment part of the case
is a snag. When the Martens flats were
constructed at Meridian and Michigan
streets, by mistake one of the walls of the
fiat was built so that It projected over the
property line of DR.. Van Hummell about
six inches. 1t is said that the contractors
were warned when the building was under
construction that the Van Hummell prop
erty line was being encroached upon. but
no heed was paid to the warning.
The plaintiff also contends that in case OF
the construction of fire escapes on the Van
Hummell side of the building there is no
place for them, and they will necessarily
project over the property of the plaintiff.
Should the plaintiff win the suit Martens
will be compelled to move his entire fat
six inches or cut away a portion OF the
wall equal TO the number of inches his
building overlaps the property of DR.. Van
Hummell.

'Tis the noon OF the springtime. yet never a bird
In the vind-shaken elm or the maple is heard
For green meadow grasses. wide levels OF snow.
And blowing of drifts where the crocus should
blow:
Where the windhower and violet. amber and
white.
ON south sIoping brooksides should smile in the
light,
Ger the cold winter beds OF their late-waking
roots.
The frosty flake eddies, the ice crystal shoots:
And longing for light. under wind-driven heaps
Round the boles OF the pine wood the ground
laurel creeps.
Unkissed OF the sunshine. unbaptized Of the
showers.
With buds scarcely swelled. which should burst
into flowers;
We wait for thy coming. sweet wind OF the
South.
For the touch OF thy light wings. the kiss OF thy

For the yearly evangel thou Dearest from God.

ScaIping Offices Ouxted.

After years of persistent effort the ticket
scalpers have been driven out by the roads
centering at P%ittsburg. On Saturday every
ticket scalper closed his doors and on all
the offices is now posted consciously a
notice that no more tickets will be sold. AS
a result the legitimate ticket offices of the
railroad companies are having trouble with
holders of unused mileage books who had
secured them in a manner which made the
books liable TO conffscation when presented.
AS the evil is now abated the tickle agents
are disposed To deal lieniently in the mat
ter and refund the money unless the evil
dence indicates some crooked work which
might be ferreted out by refusing to re-
deem the unused mileage.
