TELLS
OF CRUELTY IN
INSANE ASYLUM

New York, Dec. 2l.--Dr. John c. Me-
Carthy, who SAYS he practlced medicine
in Maiden, Mass, for IL years, and who
has made public charges of brutality
against attedants i'm the Manhattan state
Asylum for the Insane on Wards Island,
was a witness yesterday before the COM
mission appointed by Gov. Hughes to In
quire into conditions. DR. A. w. Ferris
is chairman OF the commission. The other
two members are Sheldon T. Viele OF
Buffalo. a lawyer and William l.. Park
hurst OF Canandiagua. S. s. koenig
counsel TO the state lunacy commission
conducted the investigation.
DIR. Mccarthy reiterated the charges
which he published in diary form. These
charges allege slugging and hanging"
by two or three of the attendants in ward
40, where DR.. Mccarthy was stationed
BY hanging DR. Mccarthy means tn ,
twisting of a coat collar or neck band
on shirt until the patient became black
in the face. The doctor accused one OF
the attendants of having struck a patient
in the face just as he was regaining COLI
sciousness from an attack OF epilepsy.
The doctor was in the hospital a month
and he jotted down in his diary some al
legged act of brutality for almost every
day. On some days there were three or
four entries. The doctor has also ac-
cused the attendants of doping pa
tents. II turned out yesterday that the
doping consisted in giving n patient a
double dose OF the medicine that had been
sent down to the ward.
DR.. Mccarthy entered the institution as
an attendant for the purpose of describ-
ing the conditions for a newspaper That
is why he never protested against the al
legged acts Of brutality. lie denied that he
had ever said to an attendant i'm the
Bloomingdale asylum. where he worked
at one time. that some day he would
write an article describing the conditions
in state hospitals and make lot OF
money out Of It,
The witness testified that he is a grad
