Treatment Of insane.


To the Editor of the Evening Star:
Dear Sir-Will you kindly publish
the following facts in the EVE
MING STAR? / want to draw the
attention of the public to the UNI
fortunate creatures at the asylum.
Those creatures have their hands
in muffs locked fast so that they
can't do any harm. They are also
tied to a bench and kept there IN
filth all day long, while the three
nurses sit in their rockers as far
away as they can get. The stencil
is something unbearable.
Is there no law to look after this?
The horse or cattle is looked after,
SO why not human beings? There
are two female supervisors drawing
a salary of $40 each to look after
these things, yet they fail to do II
There is also q, matron drawing $50
per month, yet she fails to see t. IL
There is also a warden, and he also
fails to see it. Now, who is going
to look after them? DR.. Dill
doesn't know anything about this.
I will bet my last dollar they don't
report that. ! tell you those doc
tors just look at them and then go
away.
I hope you will have ONE mercy
for those poor tied-down creatures.
The Board of Health ought to be
summoned.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
Dear Sir-The growing need for
more policemen is apparent more
than ever of late, on account OF
the demands that are made for q
detailed ma here and there in all
parts of the city, until the working
force is reduced to such small num-
bers that a quarter of the city is
left wholly unprotected at night. 1t
is a common complaint for the cap
tains of the precincts to hear from
people living in the suburbs, Il
have not seen a policeman at night
in my neighborhood in weeks"
The captains listen, but do not
offer any excuse They could, If
they wanted to. alarm the person by
saying: 1--WE are compelled to make
one man cover the territory that
has been mapped for two men, in
order to protect the centre of the
city, as we have to take chances in
the outlying districts"
The captain does not dare to give
that explanation, which he knows Is
true, for fear he might be called
down by his superior. But that is a
condition hat exists today, and the
policemen all know it..
Every grand jury recommends the
increase of the number of police
men; but that is all there Is to it
The Police Commissioners make re-
quests for additional men, but they
do not get them, as they are in
formed by the men who handle h
finances of the city that they can
not spare the money. And yet, the
latter do not go out to investigate
the conditions. If they did they
would soon make provisions for
more policemen.
Let the members of next years
finance committee of the Common
Council investigate the police de-
partment, and see for themselves
that the above statements are not
overdraWn.
MORE POLICEMEN.

worthy Charity Endorsed.


Sir-At this season of the year
when, if ever, everyone is filled
with the spirit of generosity and
goodwill, is it not well to direct
attention and assistance to those
who, through organized and o n
slant effort, devote time n
thought through the entire year to
the helping and, If possible, to the
relieving of those who are unfortu-
nate financially, physically or mem
tally. Personal charity, the best of
all charity, is ideal unless it wastes
itself in unworthy channels and be-
cause SO many seemingly worthy
cases are found to be unworthy
much thought and training must be
given the disbursement of aims,
hence more and more are individ-
uals using organized charities for
this purpose.
There are very many organiza-
tons in the city Of Newark at pres
ent whose work is crippled because
of a lack of funds and perhaps none
are so well supported but that their
work might be enlarged and i'm
proved if their income was in
creased. In order that deserving
charities might be better supported
and unworthy ones driven out Of
business by non-support. the chari-
ties Endorsement committee of the
Board of Trade was formed. and
they have a printed list of Endorsed
charities that will be gladly fur
nished to anyone upon application
to the secretary. James M. Reilly,
at the Board of Trade rooms. At

death of Mrs. Ocey Snead for the sake of the large insurance on

presentation of the evidence in the possession of the prosecutor.
1t is almost incredible of belief that a conspiracy ST unnatural and
revolving was ever entered into, but the State regards nothing but
the evidence in hand, and the grand jury was guided in its action
entirely by the facts submitted. There can be hardly a doubt that
Governor Hughes, of New York, will permit the extradition of the
mother of the victim after he inspects the evidence. But every
lover of his kind will devoutly hope that the case will be cleared
up and that the innocence of the three women so terribly accused
and so seriously compromised will be established.
