CHARGE ATTENDANTS
WITH ILL TREATMENT
Witnesses Testify in Hearing on State
Insane Asylum Before the Special
Investigating Com
mittee.

Waterbury, May H. AT yesterday
afternoons session of the investigation
into the administration Of the state
asylum for the insane, G. G. Andrews,
first assistant physician, testified that
Superintendent Hutchinson did not visit
the wards regularly, according to the
testimony of this witness. No force
was allowed on the part OF the
nurses and il il was discovered that
such course had been pursued by them
the offending attendant was Immediately
discharged
He said that he was aware Of un-
pleasant feelings between Dr. Berry and
DIR. Hutchinson, but he stated that this
feeling also extended TO the other doc
tors and officers of the institution. Dir.
Hutchinson seemed to use more author
ity than was given him by the trustees
and seemed to have little interest in
the management of the hospital He
never knew of any presents being re-
ceived by any of the doctors with one
or two exceptions, when presents OF
candy and cigars were received from a
grocery house in Boston. To his know
ledge no hospital supplies had been used
by any of the doctors for personal use,
With regard to the statements made by
outside parties that great deal OF
company was entertained at the hospi-
tai at the expense of the state, he said
these statements were utterly without
foundation. The treatment Of the pa
tients was always good and the food
and medical treatment good. There is
need of more outdoor exercise but at
the present this is not practicable ow-
ing to the small enclosed space connected
with the hospital He said that in
the past eight years 80 attendants had
been discharged on account of i'll treat
ment of the patients
Mrs. G. r. Stevens Of st. Adams tes-
tilted that her son, Harry, 20 years of
age. had been committed to the hos
pital as a private patient some time
ago, and that he complained frequently
Of i'll treatment at the hands of the
attendants. He alleged that he was
often choked and thrown on the floor.
NJ. II. Alexander, constable of the
town Of Georgia, testified that he had
committed two patients to the Water
bury institution in the last two years.
One Of these, Michael O'Connelly, had
been bedridden for year before he
went to the hospital, but upon his ar
rival there he WAS made to sit in a
chair. He died about three weeks lat
er. The witness could not say wheth-
ca or not this treatment hastened death.
Thomas Kelley OF Richmond, formerly
a nurse at the hospital, was the next
witness. He said that while he was
at the institution he believed no more
violence than was necessary was used
in restraining the patients. He de-
clared the food was always good.
The supervisors, L. M. Greene of Beth
lei, George Foster of Putney and T. r.
Steele were on the stand today as was
also W. J. Redmond. The latter's testi-
mony was Of technical nature.

Togo Not Expected to
Fight Openly.


st. Petersburg, May 1l.The admir-
atty does not confirm the London re-
port that the Russian cruiser Almaz Of
Admiral Rodjestvensky's squadron has
reached yladivostok Beyond saying
that Rodjestyensky and Nebogatoff have
effected a junction, the admiralty says it
is without news of the Russion squad

Much satisfaction was expressed at
the admiralty at the uniting of the
divisions Of Rodiestvensky's squadrons,
experts calculating that the Russian adj
miral now enjoys a superiority over
his adversary OF rs per cent in ships
of the line.
The impression here is that it will
reuire week for Nebogatoff to coal
and get everything shipshape for the
final stage of the journey to Vladivo-

Work of Rescue Was I'm
possible --- Many Well
Known People On Board

carloads on dynamite, at ten minutes
past one o'clock this morning ia South

most Of whom are still in the institH
tion. Ten Of these may die.

lively identified.

phia.
Jacob Silyerman of Bridgton, n J.
Another, partially identified, is be-
lieved to be G. Kuhlman of Altoona
Bodies are believed to be under the
wreck. Many are entirely consumed and
are nothing but ashes.

sion, and the entire train was wrecked,
being bodily lifted from the track. Fire
followed the explosion, and the blazing
Of the train prevented many from es-
Gaping And many were pinned in the
wreckage and injured.

Mrs. Albert j. Barre and the two
daughters Of the proprietor OF the Pitts
burg Post.

Of New York.
James Donly Of Pittsburg.
Charles Deforest of Cleveland.
II. l.. Hartman Of Pittsburg
Mrs. Tindell, daughter Of Senator
Knox
The bursting Of the air hose on the
freight train was the cause OF the large
loss of life, the injury of one hundred
people on the passenger train, the de-
struction Of the same train BY fire and
the burning of part of the freight train.
The second section of the Cleveland
and Cincinnati express, westbound,
plunged into the wrecked train, ex
ploding two cars of dynamite and strew
ing the ground with the dead and the
mangled bodies Of nearly all the 1863
passengers and members of the crews
Of the two trains.
The explosion, which broke windows
all over the city, set fire to both trains.
A fire alarm brought fire apparatus, but
the men were practically powerless in
the work of rescue, to which hundreds
Of mill hands gave their most futile
assistance.
Cause of the Accident.
As the freight train bound eastward
was passing Cedar street, the air hose
burst, and several cars in the middle
OF the train buckled and fell across the
passenger track. AT the same moment
the passenger train dashed into the de-
rallied cars. The engineer of the pas
senger train was killed outright. but
the fireman was thrown clear Of the
wreck, down an embanlonent, with but
slight scratches.
