UNDER INVESTIGATION.
Transfer Of Child From One Hospital
to Another

The case of Leroy Herbert. the three
year-old son Of Mr.. Charles w. Herbert Of
1885 H street northeast. who was sent from
the Casualty Hospital to the Children's
Hospital Thursday afternoon. to be treated
for severe burns was taken up today by
Commissioner Mcfarland. who directed
Superintendent Of Charities Wilson to In
vestigate the matter and make a report to
him. It appears that the child after being
badly burned as described in The Star at
the time, was hurried to the Casualty Hos
pital, where the little one was given
emergency treatment and was then sent to
the Childrens Hospital. where he died the
following day.
The allegation was made that the child s
death was hastened by Its long Trip IN the
ambulance after the burning, total OF
about four miles. The relatives and friends
of, the boy contend that he should have
been kept at the Casualty Hospital for
treatment owing to the seriousness OF MS
condition, and not sent away out to 18TH
and w streets, where the ChuorehS HOS
pftai Is located.
DR.. Baldwin, resident physician In charge
Of the Casualty Hospital. said to Star
reporter this afternoon that what he did
was done with the sole view OF saving the
boys life.
4 realized that the child was in a Sc
rious condition" said DR.. Baldwin. and
knew that the facilities for the treatment
of such cases were far better at the Chill
dren's Hospital than at the Casualty. So
after carefully giving the boy emergency
treatment he was hurried to that hospital
in an ambulance. not in police patrol
wagon, believing it would be a step toward
saving the little ones life. Before placing
the child in the ambulance he was care
fully wrapped in a large blanket"
The physicians at the ChildrenS Hospltai
say the statement that their hospital is not
supplied with an emergency outfit Is err
rcneous. 1t is, they added, supplied with
an emergency or accident room. They de-
clined to discuss any other phase Of the
case.
Superintendent Of Charities Wilson says
he Is investigating the matter this after
noon and may make a report to Commas
sioner mcfarland tomorrow forenoon.

Fire Philosophers Barred.

A fraud order was issued today by the
Post Office Department against THE Phil
osophers Of the Living Fire" at Union City,
Mich. The philosophers advertised to ini-
tiate persons into their "secret society"
which was founded upon teachings of an
cient priests and mystics," and they guar
anteed to show the 'neophytes how to un-
fold. express and control the innate divine
Powers of the SOUL" and @ few other
things equally as mysterious. A fee was
charged for this initiation, and the depart
ment thought the money was being OBJ
tanned under false pretenses.

APPEALED TO ROOT
GRIEVANCES OF THE GLOUCESTER
FISHERMEN.

Representative Augustus p. Gardner and
Benjamin A. Smith, a Boston vessel owner,
today called on Secretary Root by teie-
graphic appointment to lay before him the
grievances of the Gloucester fishermen in
connection with the Newfoundland herring
fisheries. That subject has formed the
basis of several exchanges between the
British and United States governments In
the past year. and now that the British am
bassador has returned to Washington the
negotiations will be resumed with the pur-
pose to finally settle that question, which
has threatened to become acute, as a result
of the failure OF the Senate last year to
act upon the Hay Bond reciprocity treaty
the Newfoundland.
The issues presented are briefly stated
as follows: For two hundred years past
indeed. since the making of the treaty OF
Utrecht In 1713-American fishermen have
enjoyed the right to fish along the shores
of Newfoundland and Labrador. and to en-
ter the bays, harbors and creeks. Accord
ing to the American view. that right was
confirmed by the treaty of 1918. French
subjects enjoy the same rights In those
waters, and one fact tina, adds to the feel
Ing of irritation among the American fisher
men on that subject is that no attempt has
been made to include the French fishermen
in the attempted prohibition directed
against 1nSh0re- nShing.
The Newfoundland contention Is that I'M
der the treaty OF 1918. while Americans
might fish In the Labrador bays harbors
and creeks. they could not do so in those
of Newfoundland.
This present construction Of the treaty
Is understood to have been adopted by the
government of Newfoundland In retaliation
for the failure of the Senate to sanction the
Hay-Bond treaty. The State Department
not being able to deal directly with the
government of Newfoundland. has been
obliged to delay the presentation of its case
until the return of the British ambassador
TO Washington. The purpose of the call
of Messrs. Gardner and Smith upon Secre-
tary Root was to obtain from the depart
ment some official expression of opinion as
to the rights of American fishermen in this
matter.
Denied by Newfoundland.
- After a long conference between Secle-
tary Root and Mr.. Gardner, action was
postponed until further information can be
obtained. 1t was developed that the New
foundland authorities. through the British
ambassador, have informed the State De-
partment that they know of no such action
as stopping the Gloucester fishermen from
taking herring in violation of treaty rights.
There is q difference of opinion to
whether the Gloucester fishermen were
stopped because their ships bore an Ameri-
can register instead OF a fishing license.
although 1t has been held by the Treasury
Department that an American register car
ries fishing license with 1t.
