Observation-Disclosures OF ORDER.
Statement as to Why Martha Day Was
Not Taken 10 Asvlum.

Captain Boardman of the detective bu-
reau recently forwarded to the Commits
sioners, through Major Sylvester, report
from, Sergeant Carter telling of the re-
fusal of an ambulance driver in the en-
ploy of the board of charities to convey
Martha Day. colored. to the Government
evening of April 4.
The patient had been examined by Sur
geons Vale and Wall and arrangements
had been made for her reception at St
Elizabeth. The driver declared his instruc-
tons would not allow him to make the trip
at night. The matter was referred to the
board of charities for report as to the
drivers action. and the papers have been
returned to the Commissioners with an
explanatory statement by George s. Will
son. secretary to the board, who says:
The refusal of the ambulance driver to
convey Mrs. Day to the Hospital for the
Insane was due to misunderstanding of
the order of the police department under
date OF July "a, 1902, to the effect that per-
sons not violently insane should not be
moved to the insane asylum between the
hours OF pm. and 8 am, but should be
detained temporarily at the first precinct
station, except when otherwise directed by
the surgeons.
The purpose of this order is to avoid
as far as possible making trips to the in
sane asylum during the night, when only
one ambulance driver is on duty, and thus
leaving the service without ambulance
to respond to emergency calls. for a con-
Sidera BILE time
Ambulance drivers have been instructed
to convey persons to the insane asylum al
any hour when called upon by the police
department. 1t is believed that there will
be no room for misunderstanding in the
future"

PLANNING MILL BURNED
MARTIN WIEGAND LOSES So, 900
IN EARLY MORNING FIRE.
Hard Fight to Prevent Flames From
Spreading to Other Property
Horses Saved.

A disastrous fire occurred this morning
shortly before l o'clock in the planning mill
of Martin Wiegand, on Maryland avenue
southwest between AZ and 9th streets. The
members of the fire department had all
they could do for short time to prevent
the spreading of the flames to the long row
of small houses in Louise alley, in the rear.
Policeman MCKEE discovered the flames on
one of the upper floors, and he hurried to
the box and turned in alarm. Sergt.
Dreamer and several pedestrians who were
In the neighborhood at the time went with
McKie and gained an entrance to the
stable.
While the several companies of the fire
department were speeding toward the fire
the policemen and others were rescuing the
horses In Mr.. Wiegands stable. After get
ting all the animals from their stalls they
saved the wagons. When the first of the
fire companies arrived the firemen that
a serious conf1agration was threatened and
additional alarm was sounded, which
called out the water tower and four other
companies. Chief Dutton and Assistant
Chiefs Belt. Wagner and keliher responded
to the alarms, and remained about the
burning building until satisfied that there
was no further danger.
Flames Spread Quickly.
The bright blaze attracted people from all
sections of the city, and notwithstanding 1t
was very early hour of the morning quite
a crowd gathered on the streets. The large
amount of inflammable material in the
buildings occupied by Mr.. Wiegand caused
the flames to quickly spread from one
room to another. For time it seemed as
If the row of houses in the alley would
be destroyed, and many of the occupants
donned their wearing apparel and COM
menced the work of getting together their
effects but the quick work of the fire de-
partment rendered their removal unneces-
sary, for in less than one hour from the
time the fire was discovered the flames
were under control. A new building re-
Gently built by the owner Of the mill
property was saved and owners of other
nelghboring property congratulated them
selves on their narrow escape.
MIR. WiegandS property was damaged to
the amount of about 5000, and his loss
is probably covered by insurance. The
origin of the fire is not known. The po-
lice report says it is supposed to have
started from the furnace, but others are
irclined to believe It was due to spon-
taneous combustion. Mr.. Wiegand has suf-
fered fire loss three times during recent
years In April of last year he lost a
quantity of lumber during one of the fires
on the river 'front.' and before that a de-
structive blaze occurred in a mill he had
rented. The property that was destroyed
this morning was once owned by William
P. Wood, who died few days ago
