New York's Free Hospitals.

Harry Beardsley In Leslie's Weekly.
Bellevue and its allied hospitals are not
the only ones provided by New York
City. These four are for emergencies the
temporary abiding places for the sick
or injured. On Blackwelrs Island are the
City and Metropolitan hospitals. to which
the city's patients are taken after they
have been given first aid at Bellevue, and
are In condition to be removed And al
though this hospital of the city is free,
no pay patients being admitted, surgeons
who are among the best in New York per-
form the operations, many of these oper-
ations being clinics for the instruction of
the forty-four young physicians who do
duty at the hospital without remunera-
ton. az a part of their medical training.
A part OF this training is ambulance SER
vice, and In one year there are 1900
ambulance calls from Bellevue and the
three hospitals associated with Il, or an
average of more than forty calls u day.
II Is this educational feature of the hos
pital that makes 1t possible for patients
who are among the poorest persons In
the city to receive gratis the service of
some of the country's best medical tall
ent. In one year sixty-two persons were
operated on for appendicitis by distin-
guished New York surgeons. The former
paid nothing whatever; the latter received
no fees Among the number of appendi-
citis patients were two in the same fam
lily, father and IL son. They were opeT-
ated on and cured. and for nothing.
Neither was financially able to go to a
pay hospital and employ a surgeon.
Without the free ministering of the city
they would. no doubt. have died from the
disease. The skill OF the Bellevue sur
geons is shown by an item in the report
of 1902 which shows that In the main
hospital only five died of the forty-six
upon whom operations were performed
For the new hospital II Is planned that
the city shall secure by purchase and con-
demnation proceedings the block north Of
that occupied by the present Bellevue
buildings. Appropriation has already been
made for the drawing of the plans. and
this has been done; but these plans have
not yet been adopted and the expendi-
ture of the money authorized by the

been greatly puzzled over the peculiar
actions of the receivers in this matter
but light is slowly being turned on and
the veil of mystery is lifting.
One of the receivers is the New York
Trust company controlled by James A.
Blair and Thomas F. Ryan. The Blair
Ryan concern seems to run the whole
shooting match, the other receiver appar-
emily being little more than a figurehead
Those who are "n the know are now
making the open charge that the Blair
Ryan combination has lost sight entirely
OF the creditors and is using It's re-
ceivership power to club e. Clarence
Jones for daring to oppose its plans eff
fecting the destinies of the Seaboard
Air Line railroad. To the uninItiated 1t
may seem far cry from the Merchants
Trust company insolvency matter to the
big railroad deal but the connection is
direct and plain. E. Clarence Jones is
largely interested in Seaboard securities
and has Joined hands with John Shelton
Williams in opposing the Blair-Ryan pro-
gramme. He is also one of the largest
creditors of the Merchants Trust COM
pany, his claim amounting to $4,000. He
happens to be mixed up in the matter
by reason of his Identification with the
affairs with the Hudson Valley railroad
In order to save himself from loss. Mr.
Jones proposed to take over the railroad
and at the same time the entire assest
of the Trust company. the fortunes of
the two being interviewer. Intimation is

said to have been conveyed to Mr. Jones
that If he would abandon his position In
Seaboard Air Line and come into the
Blair-Ryan camp he would find the ma
chinery creased to his satisfaction in the
neighborhood of the Merchants Trust
company. He decided, however to stand
pat and to not only stick to Mr.. Williams
but to protect his interests in the Trust
company to the very best of his ability
1t is shrewdly surmised that persons
friendly to the Jones combination are
supplying the fuel for the fire which
is driving the Blair-Ry receivers out
is clear that the receivers have been
doing some very clumsy work and by
their acts have given the opposition
plenty of ammunition for vigorous cam
paign. If the Merchants Trust company
insolvency does not yet yield a first class
financial scandal there will be disappoint-
ment in Wall street.
Once more the columns of the financial
pages of the newspapers are full of wise
talk about the west md the south "bor-
rowing enormous sums of money from
the New York banks with which to move
the crops. The south will do considerable
borrowing in this center, it is true, but
the west will be only drawing down its
balances here which are heavier now than
ever before, according to most estimates
The rest of the country is becoming more
independent of New York year by year

Magazine Advertising.

Cyrus Townsend Brady In the Critic.
The amount paid monthly by purchasers
of these magazines is S1,500.0o0. yearly $751;
100000 For this the purchasers receive
five and half thousand pages of text
and pictures a month and little over
four thousand pages of advertising. The
revenue of these magazines from adver-
Using is over sl25o.000 per month or over
$l5.000000 a year. with grand total from
circulation and advertising of over $780,
100000 a year. This is nearly an average
of 100000 a magazine, and were it not
for the number Of magazines of small cir
cuation included in the list. the average
would be much greater.
There are three magazines whose circu-
lation is over 1,000.000 copies; one over co.,
900; three over 100000 three over 100000;
four over 100000; seven over 100000; four

and when it draws funds for local or sec
tional use it Is merely employing its own
cash resources the same as an individual
depositor might do. The country at large
is in very little need of coming to New
York for help.
There is close communication between
the great international banking inter-
ests of the old world and the new, and
1t may be said with full knowledge of
the facts that this mighty influence is
strongly for restoration of peace be-
tween Russia and Japan The financial
powers of both hemispheres have gone
about as far as they care to In extend
ing credit to the battling nations. From
the broader viewpoint there is more
money in peace than can be made
In milking the treasures of Russia and
Japan. The whole world is in health
full and satisfactory trade and Industrial
position. A colossal war however remote
the acting scene may be from the great
currents of commercial activity, is new
ertheless distributing element and the
weight of money is against further con-
tnuation of the struggle.

Portrait Buttons Long in Use.

Portrait buttons for campaign pur
poses are no new thing. Exactly the
same method of conveying the expires.
sion of political admiration was in
force in the days of Queen Anne. At
the time of the famous sermon by DR..
Sacheverell, when the party passion
reached high pitch, the custom was
originated of using coat buttons
adorned with caricatures, portraits OF
tho much discussed doctor and similar
decorations. Nor was the fancy con-
fined to buttons Gentlemen sealed
their letters with similar designs, and
a little later they were to be found on
the backs of playing cards end even
on women's fans. Dr.. Sacheverell's
head, again, was made use of to orna-
mcnt tobacco stoppers, crockery and
similar articles.

TOURISTS PESTS IN ROME.

ilp-Seekers, Beggars and Vendors
Fleece the Foreigners.
One hears great deal about the
Association to Facilitate the Move
ment of Foreigners" in Italy, but of
the good accomplished by these we'll
meaning persons, say the London Pail
Mall Gazette, one hears much less.
There is no doubt that there is a
crying evil In the peninsula. which to
some people overbalances her un-
doubted attractions-tha o. the con-
tinual necessity to pay out money in
small sums If you wish any peace.
Take, for instance, the trip from
Naples to Sorrento and Capri. When
you return you are shorn of perhaps 8
lire, not more, but the giving Of that
lire has been such a WEAKNESS to
the flesh that you feel that you have
given thousands. First you fall into
the hands of the boatman to go on
board; getting down to Capri there
are fresh payments and on visiting
the grotto there are further disburse-
ments, with innumerable tips to odd
people and beggars, while illustrated
post cards and coral venders make
life burden. And this is only one
example Of what the press aptly calls
the hunt of the foreigners" 1t is
argued that this would be avoided if
the tourist paid something more for
his round ticket and had not to dis
burse these small sums.
The Swiss and Germans are no less
anxious to make money out of travel |
ers, but SO marvellous is their organi-
zation that the victim is to some ex-
tent unaware of the fact and pays
cheerfully whatever is aked. This
being so, it is proposed to invite the
aforementioned society to move in
the subject and see if they cannot jus
tify their existence.
Statistics show that the number of
beggars along the beaten track of
has very much decreased and
that those who do exist are much less
importunate and although the go
ciety for Foreigners claims credit, it
is more due to the Association
Against Begging" and still more to the
chiefs of police.

STATES IN LAND DISPUTE.
Proposition to cede Part Of Arizona
to Utah.

Proposition to cede Part Of Arizona
to Utah.
Senator Kearns has introduced a
bill providing for the annexation to
Utah of all that portion of Arizona
north of the Colorado river.
The portion of Arizona affected is
about 800 square miles in area. It is
north OF the Grand canyon and on
that account inaccessible to authori-
lies Of Arizona IL is said il now
Iorms haven for criminals and the
purpose OF the measure is to give
Utah criminal Jurisdiction over the
tract
The people Of Arizona, it is de-
clared, are almost unanimously op-
posed to any measure for annexing
10 Utah Of that portion of Arizona
aorth Of the Colorado river. The ter
ritory at large desires to keep sole
control of the canyon country and in
sne time develop it.
During the contemporaneous ses-
sions of the Arizona and Utah legis-
atWes two years ago a commission
lrom the latter was sent to Arizona
and laid the project before the Ari-
iona legislature. offering every possi-
BILE inducement. Though given re-
spectful hearing. the Arizona legis-
lature rejected the proposition unani-
mously The subject has not been
Agitated since then and there is no
ground for belief in q change of senti-
ment.

DOGS AS DRAFT ANIMALS.
Traveller CHARGES Hollanders With
Unkindness to the Animals.

A traveller who has cycled hundreds
of miles in Holland has a good word
for everything Dutch except the use
of dogs in carts. He quotes some
rather affecting instances of very old
or sick dogs used in a certain district
and concludes that the employment
of dogs as draft animals is a survival
OF barbarism. The cart" dog is a
high-spirited, eager creature, which. as
a rule, takes great deal of interest
in its work, and needs neither beating
nor scolding. At The Hague. the dogs
which bring the vegetables into mar
ket lie under their carts while the
cargo is being sold. In the afternoon,
when the time for going home ap-
proaches. they bark excitedly, and.
with their owners sitting in the carts,
often race other dogs home. The carts
are frequently very smart and SO is
the harness. Nearly all the milk and
similar commodities in Liege are dis
tributed silently, quickly and early in
the morning by dog carts.
