Succeeded by Gov. Taft.

Discussions OF possible changes in the
Presidents Cabinet now give rise to a
renewal Of the statements made last
fall that Secretary Root is TO resign
this spring or early in the summer.
It has been known for many months
that the head of the War Department
feels he is losing financially by retain
ing his present position. and that he
has long been anxious 10 return 70 the
practice Of law in New York city.
Just when he will sever his cOnnec-
ton with the Administration is not
settled. but it is probable that he will
leave as soon as Governor Taft can
be spared from the Philippines. The
later is tentative successor to Secre-
tary Root. and the appointment has
been discussed by the President. but
it is not known here whether he would
prefer a portfolio 10 a seat on the Su-
preme Court bench. an offer which he
declined sometime ago because he be-
lieved that he could not be spared from

EMERGENCY HOSPITAL
NEEDS MORE MONEY

Cants. there has been a steady increase
in the number of serious emergency
cases. as shown by the steady increase
in ambulance calls, the number Of hos
pitaI cases. and the very great increase
in the number Of operations. When in
1Sg5-96 the appropriation was increased
10 $4,000 the amount Of work rendered
in the emergency service was at least
q per cent less than at present.
Aid From Private Sources.
Indeed. the work could not have been
carried on successfully during the last
two years except for some revenue de
rived from pay patients and donations
from benevolent citizens and the Ladies'
Auxiliary Society. which in l9OO-1g0l
amounted 10 $4,000. With an increased
number Of ambulance calls, and an in
creased number Of operations. We must
expect proportional increase in the
expense Of surgical dressings and main
tenance of hospital patients and
vastly increased expense of the ambu-
lance service proper. For example, a
few years ago one horse could do all OF
the work. now the work is too heavy.
especially during the heated term, for
two horses. and an additional horse had
TO be called into service. As matter
OF fact. the growing needs of the city
for a prompt and efficient ambulance
service demands the purchase Of some
automobile ambulance.
Since 1895 emergency stations have
been established on Capitol Hill and one
in connection with the University Hos
pitaI i'm Georgetown. but. as stated be-
fore. the number Of serious cases
brought TO the Central Dispeusary and
Emergency Hospital has steadily In
creased. involving vastly increased ex-
+ penses. and since the primary object of

In addition 10 the above reasons for

/ expenses during the year about 500. Five
( hundred dollars additional at least will
