ASYLUM HOSPITAL
PHYSICIANS DID DUTY
DR.. Hickling Denies Charge of I'M
properly Attending Patient.

The investigation into the professional
competency OF the management OF the
Washington Asylum Hospital will in all
probability be short lived. aud the
charges made by the coroner's jury last
Saturday relative to the death of Jo-
seph Green will be left unsubstantiated.
Green was hit on the head with an ak,
and was taken to the hospital. where he
died. The coroner's Jury thought the
facts surrounding his death warranted
an investigation. and so reported.
Dr. d. Percy Hickling, visiting pbysi-
clan Of the hospital, upon hearing of
the report. instituted an investigation
On his own account. and yesterday pre-
sented all the facts before the Commits
sioners. AS result the threatened In
vestigatlon will probably be dropped.
The facts presented by Or. Hickling
were obtained from several OF tho ply
sicians. including DR.. Cain. resident ply
sician: Dr. J. Ernest Mitchell, Dr.. +.
J. Kerns. and DR.. Bruce Mackall. the
inferno who had immediate charge Of
the case. These gentlemen were all
summoned for a consultation over
| Green's Injuries and decided that moth
ing could be done. DR.. Hickling was
called and agreed that the patient had
but little time to live. An exact dag
nosis OF the injury was unobtainable
because OF the swollen nature OF the
wound. but the general diagnosis proved
TO be correct
Il was informed that an indefinite his
tory OF a fracture OF the skull was given
by the persons who brought him 10 the
hospital" says DR.. Hickling, "and that
| he had been treated by the resident
staff with this diagnosis in mind. I was
also informed that Green had been
struck in the sbdomeH. / examined his
head carefully. but the scalp was so
swollen that It was impossible to de-
termine with certainty any condition OF
