Perhaps the charity that makes the
least noise in this town and does the
most proportionately, Is the Hahne-
mann hospital Certainly 1t does not
occur to the average citizen that this
hospital exists almost entirely for the
benefit of the sick poor, and that the
number of patients who pay is but a
very small percentage Of those who re-
ceive assistance from that institution.
There is tendency to regard it as a
fad for the amusement OF wealthy peo-
pie. The fact is, that the beneficiaries
are chiefly those who are forlorn and
destitute and for whom there is no
other relief, as the Hahnemann is the
only charity hospital in the city. the
others being emergency hospitals OF
private enterprises.
The Hahnemann hospital had an i'm
portant meeting on Monday to consider
ways and means for the continuance of
it's good work. 1t will be recalled that
the state appropriation was cut down
disastrously. and that the strike and
other conditions have decreased its re-
ceipts for the present year. The an
nlal expenses are $4,000. The present
deficit is $1,000 and this discouras sing
outlook for such q needed institution
was an incentive for the management
to make an effort to acquaint the pub
lie with the condition of affairs.
1t was thought that if u more gen.
eral idea prevailed regarding the scope
of the work. more public interest would
be awakened and the subscription list
would advance. The fact is, that ut
present this noble institution is being
supported by only fOrty-one persons,
many subscribers having failed to keep
up their former assistance. If few
generous people would come to its aid,
the Hahnemnnn hospital would have
ample provision.

In some of the newspapers yesterday
the proposition of the operators, where
it deals with the makeup of the board
or commission of arbitratOrS. reads
The commission to be constituted as
follows In other newspapers 1t reads
THE commission should be constituted
as follows" in the one. the operators
would seem to insist on designating
the character at least of the commits
sion. In the other, they simply say
that it is their wish but not their de-
mand that the commission shall be
constituted of such and such men.
Much may depend on which is the
real reading of the offer. If it is ito

that President Roosevelt is not limited
in any manner in his selection of Il
