The Record.

From what can be gathered the steno-
graphic record Is a document of more
than ordinary interest and contains a
mass OF matter that might prove highly
readable to the public. Among the charges
made against Mr.. Cloves was one that
he dominated the local board. The refer
ence In the report TO this board refers
to alleged loose business methods as to
the purchase OF hospital supplies. The
board is composed of l.. Fl. Cloves, of
Richmond: II. d. Cole. of williamsburg,
and George c. Eland. of King and Queen.
This board has the immediate manage
ment OF the hospital. objection was made
by DIR. Foster to the strong Williamsburg
representation on this board. Mr.. Gloves
Is an old Williamsburg man. Mr., Cole
Is n williamsburg man, and Commits
sioner Lane, a. relative of Mr.. Cole, Is
a williamsburg man. It was said that
Mr.. Bland is very frequently absent from
the meetings, so that williamsburg men
control the local board.
Another chief charge made by DR.. Fos-
antagonizing him, has lnterfered with
his work, and has bred a spirit OF In
subordination among the hospital en-
ployes Many other matters We're raked
up. including the allegation that Mr.,
Gloves, several years ago, voted for negro
Republicans.
on the Cloves side, In the course of ,.,e
defense, testimony was brought out re-
fiecting, as the committee says upon the
management OF the hospital by DR..
Foster. It was claimed that tho SUI

What Attorneys Say.

When questioned last night. Mr.. Cloves
declined to comment upon the action OF
the Senate, but indicated that he would
have something TO say later on. He ex-
pressed great surprise at the decision OF
the committee. DR.. Foster left the city
on Thursday, and could not be reached
last night. The attorneys representing
the two sides each made brief state
ments. Colonel George Wayne Anderson,
who has acted as counsel for Mr.. Cloves,
said:
Il had hoped for different results,
. although at all times conscious that
the investigation itself created condi-
tons that made 1t undesirable for
DR.. Foster and Mr.. Cloves to be
officially connected with the manage
ment OF the same asylum. These com
ditions being created by DR.. Fosters
charges. and those chprges, us
thought. completely demolished, had
hoped that the committee report might
have been favorable to Mr.. Cloves
Speaking for the other side. Mr.. Joseph
T. Lawless, former Secretary of the Com
monwealth. who has represented pr.
Foster in the hearings, made Ihis state
ment:
'.Of course. expected the COM
mittee to recommend the rejection OF
Mr.. Cloves. Upon the evidence, no
other conclusion was possible. and
Mr.. Cloves may be congratulated In
the fact that the investigation was
conducted behind closed doors and
that the committee made q report t
extreme conservatism. 1t seemed to
be satisfied with merely recommend
ing his rejection
''As to an investigation OF 'the
capacity and efficiency of DIR. Fos-
ter as superintendent of the Eastern
State Hospital. he will welcome 1t ms
giving him an opportunity of DEM
onstrating his fitness. But one wit
ness other than the doctor appeared
to testify In support Of the allega-
tions against Mr. Cloves. and that
witness was heard on a collateral
matter. All of the testimony. there
fore, rejecting on his capacity and
efficiency vas ex-parte and came
from Mr.. Cowes himself. Mr.. H.. D.
Cole. a member OF the board, and
Colonel L. w. Lane. Jr.. the commits
sioner OF hospitals, both witnesses
for Mr.. Clower. testified to the eff
cheney of Dr. Foster rs superintend-
ent, and he will produce Others OF
like standing to corroborate those
gentlemen in the event an investi-
cation OF the hospital Is ordered"

Hall, where two bird dogs valued at $1OO were chained in their boxes. The mad dog bit one of the dogs fearfully, but did not attack the other animal Mrs. Hall telephoned for Dr. Hall and for the police. The doctor soon arrived and shot the mad dog which had hid away in one of the dog boxes. He then telephoned for Dr. Kelly, the veterinary, who decided that both of the doctors dogs must be shot which was done Dr. Kelly said the mad dog was much emaciated, and had evidently ran great distance, and il was a wonder he had not attacked some person. It was white bull puT with no collar. Dr. Kelly said it was a bad case of rabbies. Dr. Hall was sorry to lose his dogs, for they were valuable, especially on his hunting trips to Maine.
