LOVING NURSES CARE
How the Unhappy Patients at Belle
vue Hospital Are Sometimes -
Treated. Il

New York, Jan. 26.-Official investiga.
ton is to be made into charges against
the nurse training system in Bellevue
hospital made by John Santa Rosa, male
nurse who recently resigned and who, in
an affidavit, said that men nurses were
in the habit Of giving powerful injections
of strychnine to dying patients in order
to prolong their lives until after the
close Of the period Of duty of the nurses
in attendance.
The alleged object Of this procedure
was to shirk the duty Of laying OUT tina
bodies. Other grave Irregularities were
also charged.
The nurses make general denial Of
Rosa's charge, but say their work is too
hard. One nurse, they assert, sometimes
has from 16 to % patients to take care OF
during the night and these patients have
to be watched closely.
The affidavit says also that morphine
is given to delirious patients against doc
tors orders to keep the patient quiet; tina
nurses sleep on duty; that one patient
had hemorrhage and died while the
nurse slept; that nurses drink whiskey
and other stimulants kept for patients.
and that other abuses have been prac-
ticed.

Why the Descendent of Lord Percy
Somebody Ran Away From

New York Sun Special Service,

ScrY1Co.
Chicago. Jan. 26.-Percy Ingersoll ar
rived in South Chicago yesterday on the
coal tender of a, freight train. Percy vim
dicates his name and bellies the manner
of his arrival in that he is not genuine
hobo but the 14-year- old son of one
of the wealthiest residents of Manitoba.
He comes honestly by his name because
he is in direct line of descent from Lord
Percy Somebody, and until a year AGO
he generally arrived at places remote from
home in a palace car in company with
a. governess and a governess poodle dog
In a little red jacket.
Such. at least, is the account Percy
gave of himself at the South Chicago
police station yesterday, and when a tele-
gram sent from the station TO the chief
Of police of Shoal Lake. Man, mourning
into Percys family connections, brought
| back the assurance that Percy was tho
son Of a reputed millionaire, William r.
lnsersoll of that place. there seemed no
reason to doubt other statements made
by the youthful wanderer:
Il ran away from home a year ago
because I got tired of living in al country
town. he said, and because my family
| were too strict with me. I got tired of
being watched. Everywhere 1 went there
was somebody to so along with me and
watch after me. q. a@s,.
"A year ago they sent me on a pleas
| ure trip to. Quebec with my governess
hated the governess. She was fussy old
| maid, and when we got about fifty miles
from home sneaked away from her and

out on my own hook to see the country

CHARGES BY DIR. BERLE
He Says That Many Naval Officers
Want a War With
Germany.
New York Sun Special Service,

NEW 1OTk gun Spec1al SerVlCe. t., ~.
Bloomfield, Nj. Jan. 26.-Before the
Outlook club at their January meeting,
an address was delivered by Rev. A. A..
Berle, D. D., pastor Of the Park Congre-
gational church Of Chicago. His subject
was comparative civilization. Speaking
of the German operations in Venezuela,
DIR. Berle said:
II suppose it is true, as many officers
OF our navy are saying in private, that
it Is their hope and desire that persons
in official circles are using considerable
effort to produce rupture with Germany,
holding that our navy is better prepared
for such war now than 1t would be few
years hence. The common assertion that
military and naval men generally desire
peace is not true, fear. There is every
evidence that magazines, newspapers and
social clubs are carefully cultivating an
tagonistic feelings against Germany with
this end in view. 1t should be the stead
fast care of every American to resist the
growth of such feelings against any ma
ton. but especially against one with which
We have so many intellectual and moral
aims In common as we have with Ger
many.

Washington, Jan.sf2s. - The United

through Justice Harlan an opinion affect
ing the Northern Pacific land grant. The
case was that of Peter and Henry Nell
son, who located upon unsurveyed land
within the grant in the then territory of
Washington in 1891. This was after the
company had filed its general map show
ing it's proposed line, but before it had
filed its map of definite location.
1t Is held that the title Of the settlers
was better than that of the company and
that until the definite map was filed,
congress had control Of the lands within
the grant regardless OF the general map
In a dissenting opinion, Justice Brewer
said the opinion reverses the Judgment of
