Special Dispatch to The Star.
PIrTsBURG. June 19.-The second
days session Of the International Hahne-
mannian Association ut the Hotel Schen-
ley yesterday and last night proved an in
teresting one because Of the debates that
followed reports on different hospitals
conducted under the name Of ''homeo-
pathic" throughout the country. The
basis Of the complaint against these in
true homeopathy. and that the tendency
of many Of the school was to depart from
the simon pure Hahnemannian science.
Among the hospitals criticized on this
ground were the Hahnemannian. Phila-
delphia; the Denver hospital, the Louis
Vile KyD College and the American Med
ical College. Baltimore. These institu-
tions. while posing as strictly Hahne-
mannian. were declared to be not real
Hahnemannian. The discussion was some-
what bitter at times, as some of the dele
gates took exception to the charges.
At last nights sessions the following Of
ficers were chosen: President. Dr. S. III.
Stanton. New York; vice president. DR..
E. A. Taylor. Chicago; treasurer, DR.. p.
A. kirchbaum, Montclair. n. J.: secre-

The next meeting place has not been
selected. but it was agreed that 1t would
be somewhere salong the Atlantic coast,
