ONE OF THE CITY'S NEEDS.

Some OF the statements and figures given
by DIR. Hurry in the report of the committee
on state medicine and hygiene, of which
he is chairman. to the Indiana State Med
ical Society forcibIy supplement the plea
recently made by officers of the Indian
| apolis Flower Mission for aid in establish
ing a home for incurables. A branch of
the work of the mission is the care of the
incurably sick poor. The majority Of these
patents are afflicted with consumption,
hu- 4 number suffer from cancer. and each
year finds an increased number of the vic
TINS Of both diseases. DIR. Hurry shows
an increased death rate in the State from
tuberculosis, the exact number for 1900
Icing AN. He also notes a striking in
crease i'm the number of cases of cancer.
The fact that consumption is contagious
is taught by all medical men and is known
To the enlightened laity. but the community
in general seems slow to recognize the need
of guarding against IL; hence the diff
fculty of securing protective legislation.
Cancer is not contagious, but is a commune
cable disease. Physicians are doing all
In their power, however, to encourage SAM
tary precautions. and ore measure urged is
the establishment OF hospitals where pa
tents may be isolated and yet well cared
for. The Flower Mission feels this need
tor a double reason-it sees the hygienic
desirability of separating the victims IF
contagious disease from healthy members
OF their families. and is also confronted
by the economic Importance of having
these patients where they can be provided
for with the least financial outlay. AT
present the mission works at a great a:sad-
vantage. Last year Ii had on its hands
over fifty. Owing to the lack Of a hos.
pital these persons. must be cared for IN
their own homes. often crowded and I'M
comfortable. or in other private quarters.
Besides the risk of contagion in many in
stances and the difficulty. under the cir
cumstanees. of giving the sufferers propec
attention, the expense involved is much
heavier than would otherwise be the case.
Having but limited means. this outlay is an
important matter TO the mission. and IL is
naturally anxious for improved facilities.
With a hospital where such patients could
be placed. the total cost of food and nurs-
ing would be materially decreased. the
sunerers would have better surroundings
and care. danger OF contagion TO the fami-
lies would be removed. and the latter. re-
neved from the partial care Of the sick
persons. could provide for themselves and
cease TO be a burden on charity.
Every argument is In favor OF such an
institution. II Is seldom that the public is
called on in behalf OF a more deserving
charity or one that will react so well to
the general benefit. Smaller and less
wealthy cities than indianapolis are provid-
ed with hospitals for incurables. Let no.
this city. so noted for its many and en-
hghtened charities. fall behind in this re-
spect.

DEFICIT OF $995.52
In the Cash Account of Former Treas
urer Kelly, of Liberty.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
LIBERTY, Ind. May ia committee.
appointed by the Liberty Corporation
Board of Trustees, composed Of the county
auditor. assistant cashier of the Union
County Bank and two members of the
Board OF Trustees. has reported the re-
suit OF the Investigations as TO the defalca-
lions of Koscie Kelly, former clerk and
treasurer of Liberty Corporation. They
find Kelly's shortage to be $685.. 1t Is
said that Kelly's bond was never approved
or recorded and cannot now be found,
showing neglect on the part of the Board
of Trustees. Kelly was serving his sixth
term as clerk and treasurer. his downfall
is due TO the drink habit, to which he re-
turned after having taken the gold cure.
1t is believed he lost money dealing In
margins. 1t is not known here where
Kelly has gone. Kelly's action was the
lican candidates for trustee at the recent
election, and within a year the Democrats
will have control of the Corporation Board.
AT present the board stands three Repub-
licans and two Democrats.
At the recent session of the grand jury
Indictments were found against two MEM
bers of the Corporation Board for alleged
violation of the statutes in voting TO them
selves money for services rendered in
experimenting public works, chiefly in i'm
proving the water works plant. IL is be-
lieved that these indictments will not
stand, as the members of the board in
dicted were in no sense guilty of more
than a technical violation of the statutes.
The sums voted to each are nominal and
for services rendered by appointment and
direction of the board. The members in
dicted were in no way interested in any
contracts made by the board.

BORDERS ON INSOLENCE
AN UNNAMED FOREIGN ENJOYS
VIEW OF CHINA'S POLICY.
He Thinks the Offer to Pay Fifteen
Million Taels Annually Absurd
-German Official Views.

PEKING. May 1.-THE foreign ministers
for publication regarding the Chinese gov
ernment's answer to the indemnity demand,
but three of them gave expression to their
personal views of the matter. One of these
said he never expected the Chinese to agree
to the demand without arguing. even had
the total been only ten millions. He con-
siders the Chinese offer of 100000 taels
annually for thirty years absurd and ride
ulous, and thinks the request that 1000. 600
be given them from the foreign customs
borders upon insolence. The powers, he
believes, will make "A mistake if they do
not exact the utmost centime. Another
says it does not matter what China says,
and that whatever the powers decide on
will have 10 be agreed to eventually. A
third expresses himself as satisfied that a
majority of the powers will agree to reduc
the demands in accordance with China's
ability to pay.
An explosion at the arsenal i'm Kalgan

four privates. Three German privates are
missing. 1t is supposed that they were

believe that the Chinese Intentionally com
mitted the outrage, although evidence 10

yestigation will be made.

which he paid tribute to the Americans

THE ARSENAL QUESTION.

II there Is a possibility OF inducing the
government TO reconsider the order discon-
tinuing the arsenal at this point that
should be the first object OF endeavor. IL
the arsenal is to be discontinued an effort
should be made to have a military post es-
tablished: but why discontinue the arsenal?
The argument OF economy Is contemplate.
Such action cannot be justified on business
or military grounds. and there is reason to
believe the order on the subject was issued
without due elaboration. If the govern
ment imagines that the necessity for an in
land arsenal ceased with the civil war.
which called this one into existence. II is
very much mistaken. In the years TO come
there will be another war, and more than
one. Civil connections and foreign wars
are as inevitable as the passage of time. 1t
is the duty Of a wise government TO be pre-
pared for them and TO be not taught nap
ping. Assuming hat the government
should maintain storage and supply ar
senals at eligible points in different parts OF
the country. 1t is safe TO say there is no
other point more eligible for such an estaD-
lishment than this city. Near the exact
center of population. and centrally located
with respect to the coast lines and border
lines OF the country-east. west, north and
~south-with railroad communications In ev-
cry direction that defy interruption, 1t
might be called the ideal point for a storage
arsenal. The fact that such an establish
ment is unnecessary to-day is no argument
e t. wr,r-t
not argue from the necessities of to-day or
tomorrow merely. They must look 10 the
future and it's possible demands. If the
government should abolish the arsenal In
this city to-day. and forty or fifty years
hence should need a new one as badly as 1t
did forty years ago. where would 1T find as
good a location as this, or where could Il OBJ
tain land for the purpose at the original
cost of these grounds? Suppose that in our
next foreign war, which will probably come
within fifty years, 1t should become neces-
sary to repel an enemy from our northern,
western or southern border. from whence
could arms and munitions of war be dis
patched to any threatened point more
promptly. safely and expeditiously than
from an arsenal in this city? These ques-
tons are not irrelevant. They are reason
ably certain to arise within the next half
century, and it would be very short-sighted
for the government to ignore them. The
maintenance OF the arsenal here, the cur
rent expense of which is insignificant. is a
matter of far more Importance to the ma
tional government than IL Is to this city. II
it is to be discontinued 1t should be ex-
changed for a military post. but IL should
not be discontinued at all. The government
should consider the large necessities of the
distant future instead of the small econo-
mics of the immediate present.

DEFENDS DIR. GILBERT.
The Rev. Mr.. Meservc, ut Fort Wayne,
Causes a Sharp Tilt.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
FORT WAYNE, Ind. May 15.-The ses-
sion of the state meeting of Congregational
ministers and churches tonight was en-
livened by a rather sensational tilt over
the expulsion of DR.. Gilbert from the Theo-
logical Seminary in Chicago. The speaker
who p~recipitated the discussion was the
Rev. IL. c. Meserve, of indianapolis. He
said that the name of Professor Gilbert
would live when the names of his perse-
cutors were forgotten. There have been
built up" he said, barriers, artificial bar
riers. against the truth. 1 could give the
names of men whom we now revere but
who In their day were accounted h~eretics.
l would rather be Paul at the council of
Jerusalem than Peter or John. You lay
men ought to stand by the right of a man
to say whatever is i'm his heart to-day. |
would rather be Professor Gilbert, who re-
signed from Chicago Theological Seminary,
than those men who asked him to resign.
His name Will go down in history when the
names of his detractors are forgotten. L
don't remember hat Jesus asked those
who came to Him if they were in good
standing in the Jewish Church"
The Rev. w. A. Waterman, ID. d., of
Terre Haute, who was present at the meet
ing at which DR.. Gilbert's resignation was
demanded. retorted sharply. lie made a
spirited speech, saying that DR.. Gilbert
did not teach the creed which he had prom
ised and was employed 10 teach and did
not even employ business honesty. He had
subscribed to a creed which asserted the
divinity of Christ and then taught thu. t
Christ was only a perfect man and not
divine. Those who defended Gilbert. the
speaker said. were ~traducing the fathers
who had been gathered from all parts of
the central West TO build a foundation on
which the Congregational Church might
stand.
The discussion was brief, but very
spirited. and left some bitterness when the
moderator requested that II be carried no
further. The subject will be brought up
at the session tomorrow. when both sides
to the controversy will demand a hearing.

rREsByrERIAN CREED REVISION.

With the meeting of the General Assem-
bly, OF the Presbyterian Church IN Phila-
delphia to-day the question Of creed re-
vision will come up again. This assembly.
by the way. is the church body which for
two years met at Winona. this State. an
ideal spot as far as natural environments
were concerned. but one which lacked the
important dement, OF producing an impress
sion on the people OF the vicinage. The sur
roundings were not favorable for producing
the local effect that should attach 10 a
meeting OF an ecclesiastical body repre-
ssnting several thousand churches and a
million or more OF members. Hence the
