Nurses Were Discharged.

The nurse who choked the Montgom- cry patient in a fit of anger lost his position. The nurse who struck the man with a gas stick was discharged. The nurse who beat a man about the legs with a broom stick, as he climbed the stairs, was discharged.
 The nurse who choked a patient with a wet towel until he became quiet, was discharged. In practically every au- thenticated case of violence. the same evidence that established the violence, established also the discharge of the nurse.
 The bent of the Commissions mind is indicated by the questions the mem bers ask. From these questions 1t is seen that the Commission does not be- lieve that the salaries paid nurses are not large enough to keep good men as nurses. This is the line of question ing followed by the Commission, in it's examination of ex-nurses. They are asked closely about the salaries paid. It has developed that the nurses start iu on SIP and sl5 a month and are paid $25 a month. The Supervisor and the Assistant Supervisor of course get more but their salaries do not reach $50 a month.
 It Is confidently believed that one recommendation of the Commission will touch upon this feature of the hospi- teI management.
 The Commission is devoting consid eruble part of its time to an inVestiga- tion of the food served in the hospital dining rooms The members have been present at eight or ten meals in the dining rooms since they have been in Tuscaloosa.
 on one phase of their testimony all the patients are agreed. There has been an improvement in the food sup ply since the investigation began. The Commission has further found that the early charges that the food was scanty. dirty and insufficient were unfounded. The Commission may make some rec ommendation as to the food supply and it's manner of service. but the nature of the recommendation can not now be forecaste4
 All the witnesses who have been summoned have been summoned at the request of H. S. Harton, at the sug- gestton of letters received by Chair man King, or by some members of the Commission.
 No witness has yet been summoned at the request of the hospital manage ment. Most of the testimony so far given is supposed to have come from sources unfriendly to the hospital. The Commission will meet again in Tusca- loosa, next Monday. when witnesses for the hospital will be examined. At that time it is thought the attorneys for the management will bring up and argue the question, How much weight is to be attached to the evidence of luna tic3"

REVIVAL CLOSE AT HANE

New York, Sept. 16.-E. H. Gary,
chairman of the directors of the United
States Steel corporation, took an OPP
timistic view of the business outlook in
an interview today. He declared that
a general quickening of business will
follow the sale of $700.0OO.0o0 worth of
crops which he expects to take place In
a few weeks if the weather remains
favorable. In the near future, he
added. the public will realize that not
in ten years has il had such a chance
to pick up good securities. When that
time comes, he said, the companies
will be enabled to raise funds for re-
newals and extensions. Mr.. Gary con-
tinued:
ITO me, the general situation is this:
The country was in need of between
$500, 0O0, 600 and ZOO, 600, 600 additional
capital. and could not get it. If the
favorable weather continues for the
next two or three weeks, we will get
500, 600, 900 for our crops. That will
keep the railroads. The railroads must
order new cars and rails. A general
quickening of business will follow In
my opinion, the forthcoming presiden-
tial election has been discounted earlier
than usual, and 1t has been reflected
in the securities market"

city yesterday from Denver, the Moffat
road is completed to a point thirteen
miles west of Kremmling, a small town
west of Denver. making the total mile
age distance from Denver now COM
pleted 126 miles. David H. Moffat, vice
president, w. F. Jones and a party of
thirty-two guests made the trip from
Denver to the terminus Saturday and
upon their return gave out interviews
which throw an important light on the
great boon the road will be to Salt

ed. number of those who were in
the party accompanied Mr.. Moffat on
his recent trip to Provo and through
eastern Utah
The trip was the first which has been
made through Gore canyon by Mr.. MOf-
fat and at which the men interested in
the proposition have had a chance 70
see the rOadbed cut six miles through
solid granite. The work will be con-
tinued twenty-five miles beyond the
present terminus before winter sets In
according to Vice President Jones By
the middle of October the Routt coun-
try will be opened up. This will
put Steamboat Springs $50 miles nearer
Denver. Gore canyon surpasses any
thing in the world. The granite walls
rise more than 1900 feet. The walls are
so PERCEPTIONS that in locating the line
of railroad it was necessary to lower
the engineers from their summit by
ropes for hundreds of feet The trip Of

made at an average of thirty-four and
