SURGEONS TO AID
INf|RMARY PLANS.
Grand Jury and Supervisors to
Ask Suggestions for Enlarg=
ing County Hospital

OAKLAND, Nov. 6.-The new county
proved by three of the most eminent
physicians and surgeons about the bay,
according to plans formulated at a
conference between the supervisors in
from the grand jury today.
DR.. o. ID. Hamlin, chief surgeon for
the county emergency hospital. MEM
ber of the city board of health and
consulting surgeon at Providence hos
pital; DIR. Frank X. Ainsworth, chief
surgeon and manager of the model
Southern Pacific hospital recently COM
pleted at San Francisco, and DR.. w. A.
Clark, superintendent and operating
surgeon at the infirmary, will be asked
to assist the joint committee in ar
irving at decision as to the salient
features of the new infirmary.
The settled policy of the county in
maintaining an infirmary is that of a
hospital rather than poor house. The
best of surgical and medical care is
given inmates regardless of cost, the
theory being that it is better to cure
and discharge inmates than to keep
them over indefinite periods as in
digents. So far has this plan been ap-
proved that indigents who are able
to work are paid small salaries rang
ing from s5 to $40 a month in order
to assist restoring self-respect and in
dependence.
That this policy will not be aban-
doned was indicated after the grand
jury had thoroughly inspected the out
grown equipment and had announced
the intention to recommend a bond is
sue of at least 100000 to rebuild. A
count revealed "a buildings. shacks and
sheds the most pretentious being a re-
modelled farm house. which served as
administration building. and an annex
containing the operating room. The
count was exclusive of number of worn
out tents, in which men patients were
housed. The tents frequently blow
down in winter and leak in the rainy
season.

terested in the case of Miss Mabel Wise,

terday from poison after brooding over
her attacks OF kleptomania. over which

Miss Wise, who was a member OF the
First Presbyterian church Of this city

time here. was highly regarded by her
friends. and her death was distinct
shock TO those who knew nothing OF
her unfortunate affiiction. To them
she seemed a bright girl, rather quiet
and thoughtful, but never for mo-
ment did they have cause TO think that
she was contemplating suicide.
The police, who dropped the invesd-
CATION after two thefts had been traced
to her, declare that her death was de-
plorable and her case unique. Miss
Wise. according to her admission TO
Detective A. :. ]. Woods, said that she
stole a number of trifles for which she
had no use and a ma jority of times
she did not know what she had done
with the articles pilfered.
Mrs w. A. Ray of. 1898 Dwight way
and her brother, William Wise, VINO

broken over her death, as she seemed
to be progressing rapidly on the road

ufSgoURrs TW0-cENT RATE LAW.

NIissouri's 2-cents- mile law for passenger
service on railroads and its maximum irelgHL
rate law were both declared invalid yesterday
i'm tho federal courts Judge Smith Mcpherson
of the Southern District of Iowa, delivered the
opinion. which, in SO far the passenger rate
law was concerned. was based on the reSuItS
of a trial Of the lower rate begun on June H.
1907. Taking the figures presented to the court
the iudgp held that the 2-cent rate on intra-
state business did not produce a sufhclehI re-
trrn 10 any road operating in Missouri He
therefore pronounced it confscatory. In the
Judges opinion 2la cents mile for the stronger
roads and 3 cents Il mile for the weaker ROADS
would probably produce far proht
This decision illustrates once more The foHy
and Injustice of trying TO impose fiat --cent
rate on railroads operated under very dlnerent
conditions. Governor Hughes Coura geously
recognized the nequity of putting all railroads
in this state the same basis as regards pas
senger rates when ne vetoed the 2-cent Dlll
DaSsed by the Legislature. 4 road with great
volume of passenger traffic may carry passen
gers for > cents mile and hundreds of thou
sands Of New Workers do travel at a much
lower rate than = cents But 10 compel an
isolated line penetrating n sparsely settled
region 70 give the same service for the same
pay as great trunk line connecting populous
cities is II departure from all ideas of common
sense and business propriety.
The agitation for fat 2-cent passenger fares
which swept the country two years ago has
fortunately subsided. 1t checked by the
courts in many states. and the laws which it
put Oh the statute books h&ve been largely
nullfpd. 1t was born of arbitrarness and un-
reason The country is more disposed now 10
give the railroads chance to earn a legitimate
income and to consider distinctions in earning
capacity due to physical and other conditions.
