The news-democrat. (Providence, R.I.) 1906-1909, 1906-07-27

held early next week, at which IL IL
probable that the final arrangements II
relation TO the opening of that institution
will be made. The management has beer
greatly disappointed in the manner In
which the work on the new building ha,
been done. When IL was started th'
statement was made that II would be
ready for occupancy not later than JunC
and the directors bent all their energies
10 getting the furniture ready for that
date June l came around and the build
ing was not completed. From that date
70 the present time there have been sew
eral dates set and each one OF them has
been abandoned, all because the contract
ors have not completed their work
The one thing which has caused trouble
has been the elevator. The cabinet work
about this has not been put in and IL
would seem that the people who have
the contract are not going 10 do IT, DR..
Heimer. who has been given full charge
OF making the arrangements for the
opening, hos felt that II would be dan
gerous TO patients and others who might
come to the building TO have 1t opened
before this work was completed.
In addition to that the work has got
10 be done sometime and IL was not de-
Eired to have any patients in the house
while carpenters and cabinet makers
were laboring because the noise would
be apt 10 disturb them. So there has
been a long wait" which seesm now To
be almost interminable.
DIR. McNally has finally decided that II
will be unwise 10 wait much longer and
he has written a letter TO tho owner of
the property asking that the elevator well
be covered over. so that the building can
be occupied at once and just as soon as
an answer is received meeting OF the
directors will be called.
But while this wait has been very ex-
asperating II has been taken advantage
OF by those In charge TO select the heads
OF the several departments. the nurses
ord others who will be employed az The
Institution and now there Is scarcely
thing that Is needed TO set the wheels
in operation. Apparently this fact las
bccoem rreity well known TO the public
and as result scores OF persons Rave
been. making application at the tempo

At the probate court tomorrow morn
ing will be heard the application which
has been made for the appointment OF
a guardian for Michael Hand, the we'll
known brewer OF this city. The applica-
ton is fled by attorneys acting In be-
half OF Mrs. Hand. and II was originally
set down for hearing last Monday but
nesses for the plaintiff, the matter was
postponed
telegram which called this witness
out OF town plays some part In the pro- /
ceedings. as Attorney Fitzgerald declared
10 the court last Monday that I'm his opin-
lon II was nothing but bluff. and later
he stated that he had received n tele-
gram which stated that the cause which
had been given for the absence OF this
witness was untrue. The case has at
tracted considerable attention because OF
the prominence OF the parties 10 the suit
and II Is likely that there will be a large
attendance at the hearing.
