Transferred Secretly.
The state board of control found it
necessary on account of the interest
aroused in the matter to transfer
the patients from the state insane
hospitals to Cherokee on the opening
of that institution the past week as
secretly as possible. Special trains
were provided which carried the pa
tients from independence, Clarinda
and Mount Pleasant on Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday, without
much publicity attending it, as the rail
road agents connived to keep the trans
fer from the public as far as possible.
The transfers were made successfully
and the Cherokee institution is now
running like any of the other state hos
pitfalls.
