EXPECT HOSPITAL
REPORT TODAY
QUESTION IS (WHICH Is THE
MAJORITY"
Members of Committee Ignore Two
Late Alphabetically of
Finding Depends on Who
Constitutes Body

This morning the final meeting of the
receiving hospital committee of the
council will be held.
Because of differences of opinion a
majority and minority report will be
filed with the council Monday.
The original members of the commit
tee were Messrs. Wren, chairman, and
Wallace, non-partisans, and Mr.. Lyon,
Republican.
After they were appointed President
PeaSe reassembled the council at ad-
journment and added Messrs. Clampitt
and Yonkin, both Republicans, to the
committee. This action was declared
Irregular by some counCilmen and Chair
man Wren has so far refused to recog-
nize the two last named members as
being entitled to seats in this special
committee.
If these two latter should insist on
membership and if they agree in their
findings with Mr.. Lyon their report will
be the majority report. while that Of
Messrs. Wren and Wallace will be the
minority.
The significance of this lies in politics
involved. The non-partisans are in
favor of one police surgeon in complete
charge Of the hospital with two or three
favor Of the hydra-headed system that
has prevailed in the past, each chief
being on duty twelve hours.
The point to be settled this morning
is whether Messrs. Clampitt and Yon-
kin can join in making the report AS
the council committee of the whole will
meet this morning also there may be
warm debates over the question.
For months the management of the
receiving hospital has been under fire,
the system of using TRUSTEES from the
Jail for nurses and the poor and insani-
tary quarters calling for most of the
criticism The absence of responsible
authority due to the fact that two men
divide the responsibility, neither being
at the hospital much, has also resulted
in conditions that caused the nam
ing of the committee on investigation.

RAISE RATES ON
GRAIN AND COAL
RAILROADS RETALlATE FOR
LEGISLATION
Public Agitation Makes Loans More
Costly and Operating Expenses
Higher, Hence Increased
Tariffs
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
CHICAGO, March 21.--A dispatch to
the Record Herald from Washington
says:
In retaliation for the action of the
state legislatures in providing for two
cent fares and the public agitation
against them the railroads of the west
have served notices on the interstate
commerce commission of an increase of
freight rates on grain and coal.
This was the result of a test of the
constitutionality of the rate law.
The railways will endeavor to show
that they are not able to carry these
commodities unless it be at rates
higher than those at present in effect.
Notice has been sent to the commits
sion by all the trunk lines out of Chi
cago that the rate on grain from Chi
cago to New York will be increased
after April 1. from 1715c q hundred
pounds to 1870.
Coal mine operators and shippers in
Illinois have been before the commits
sion for two days protesting against a
proposed increase in the rate on coal
and the same is true on iron.
One Of the causes assigned by rail-
roads for the increase is that they find
it difficult on account of the public
agitation against them to borrow
money with which to make better
ments, and that they can get this
money only at high rates; added cost
of money. together with the increased
cost of labor and material, and a gem
eral increase of operating expenses,
leaving nothing to be done but in
crease the rates.

HERE'S GOOD NEWS FOR
PoPC0RN-PEANUT MEN
MONKEYS WILL BE INSTALLED IN
EASTLAkE
Department Agents Will Buy Lions
and Some Simlan Specimens to
Amuse the Younger Generation
Who Visit Popular Park

In a few weeks the small menagerie
at Eastlake park will be a bigger
happy family.
The park department has just been
authorized to advertise for bids for a
lion and whelps. Agents of the depart
ment are trying to get a lot of mon
keys either in New Orleans or New
York
Monkeys can be bought as low as Sc
in lots, plus express charges, and If
they should become sick and die the
financial loss would not be much. With
lions or other big beasts it is serious
item.
1t is hoped by Mayor Harper that
animals can be installed in all larger
parks. He favors such as will cost but
little for maintenance at present.
Some time ago the city put in a bid
for a collection of fine monkeys that
reached New Orleans, but the zoo at
Cincinnati. one of the best in America,
got them.
Most OF the monkeys in the parks in
this country come from Central and
South America. They are hardy and
are a continual delight to old and
young.
1t Is thought the lions can be pur-
chased advantageOusly in Venice,
where a circus has been wintering.

Commissioner Anthony Schwamm

week, was deputized by Mayor Harper
to deliver the rebuke, which he did in
a caustic manner to both Messrs.
Frankhouser and Anderson.
Commissioners stated after the meet
ing that though Chief Lips took the
blame for much of the trouble they
regarded the chiefs statement as
merely shouldering the responsibility
of a man under him and preferred to

How Much To Feed The Hens

How much feed should | give my
hens is a very common question, and
one that | can not always answer with
satisfaction to the owner. 1t depends
on many conditions, such as breed,
whether old or young, growing birds,
whether laying or not, exercise, etc.
Ordinarily | aim to feed about twelve
to fifteen per cent. animal food, twenty
to twenty-five per cent vegetables or
green food, sixty to seventy per cent.
grain food.
| feed in the morning all the grain
they will scratch out of the litter in four
or five hours. At noon all the mash
they will clean up in fifteen or twenty
minutes, removing all lett over. At
night full meal or all they will eat in
half an hour. Most poultry men feed
the mash in the morning, but | prefer
to feed it at noon or for the evening
meal
To find out just about what quantity
is required, leave the flock after the
morning meal till two or three o'clock,
then place before them a quantity OF
mixed grain and see what quantity they
will clean up in twenty minutes. Then
each day scatter that much in the lit
ter for the morning or noon meal. II
they are laying steadily and do not APP
pear to find all they want, increase the
amount by a few handfuls.
| calculate that when a flock is lay
ing heavily the more grain you can get
them to consume without going out OF
condition, becoming ovcrfat, the bet
ter. 4 hen can not produce eggs
steadily without the material to make
them OF, and if she lays we'll and has
proper amount OF exercise she will eat
quite an amount OF food.

FARM NOTES
Feed A Balanced Ration For Eqqs

In feeding for eggs, one of the prin-
ciple things is to feed literally. People
who give short rations believing their
hens will become over fat if fed plenti-
fully, are not likely to get many eggs.
Allowing that the hens are laying now,
there are two things that call for extra
food, one is the eggs and the other that
required to keep up bodily heat.
