report and it takes up the matter
of the existing conditions of the
mills relative to the enjoyment
of children under the required
age and other interesting items.
The following is their report:2
We, thelGrand:: Jury, for the
January term of Superior Cour,
after having investigated. to the
best of our ability, all matters
pertaining and contained in YOU
charge, beg to submit the follow,
ing report, to wit.
We have acted on all bills
turned over to US by the Solici,
tor, with the exception of one
for which we are unable to locate
the prosecuting witness and the
same is returned herewith.
The following magistrates have
made their reports to the clerk
and fines collected have been
turned over to the treasurer: D.
c. Gunter, j. I. Morton, E. H.
Weary, ]. W. Rogers. and D. D.
Harris.
We find that the sixteen hour
law which affecting trainmen,
and the eight hour law affecting
telegraph operators, also the law
against drunkness on the part of
the train crew and telegraph
operators while on duty, are not
being violated.
We find that the water supply
of the city is regularly tested by
the State Chemist and reports
showing the same to be good are
on file in the Office of the Dur
ham Water Company as well as
with the city officials.
Our attention has been called
to the careless manner in which
the filth from the dry closets
of the city are being disposed
of. It is being partly scattered
on the top of the ground and
partly buried near small stream
on Dowd street just beyond the
Norfolk and Western Railway
tracks and whenever there is an
unusual rainfall this filth is car
ried down the stream making it
detrimental to the health Of
those living in that immediate
vicinity. We would recommend
the attention of the County
Health Officer be called to this
matter and in future all such
filth should be buried at some
place where it connot possibly
be carried away by any stream.
We have visited the jail in al
body and found it in a Clearly
and well kept condition, being
entirely free from any disagree
able odors and the prisoners well
cared for.
We find the court building to
be In good shape with the excep-
tion of the closet for the use Of
colored people in the basement.
We would recommend that this
closet be cut off from view by
the erection Of a wooden parti-
tion of screen running across in
front Of said closet.
We have visited. by commit
tees. the County Home and con-
victs camp and found the inmates
of the County Home well cared
for. We found at the camps
that the convicts are compelled
to eat their meals out of doors
without shelter and we recon-
mend that some kind Of shelter
be provided for the use Of the
convicts while eating. The food
we found to be Of good quality
and sufficient in quantity and their
sleeping quarters comfortably /
provided.
Respectfully submitted.

Plan for Medical Reserve in
Navy Proposed.
BILL IS BEING PREPARED
Surgeon General Stokes Urges Com
mittee to Favorably Consider It.
WOULD NAME NOTED DOCTORS
Commissions for Eminent Physicians
Suggested-Hospital Ships for
Battle Fleets.

The Mays brothers of Rochester. MINI. !;
DR.. ]. M. T. Finney of Baltimore, DR..
Maurice Richardson Of Boston and other
physicians and surgeons Of international
reputation will be commissioned officers
in the navy of the United States, If the
proposition advocated by Surgeon General
Stokes before the House committee on
naval affairs yesterday receives favorable
consideration by Congress.
Surgeon General Stokes is the author of
comprehensive plan for the creation of
a naval medical reserve, the officers of
which will be the most famous surgeons
in the United States. He has commune
Gated with many of the physicians on the
subject and every one of them thinks well
OF, the idea and expresses willingness to
join the reserve. The surgeon general Is
preparing a bill embodying his views In
detail and it will be introduced and refer
red to the naval committee in the near
future. The committee is favorably in
clined and there seems to be no: doubt
that the proposition will receive unani-
nous report.
Details Of the Plan.
Under Surgeon General Stokes plan
eminent surgeons would be sworn into the
missions. But they would receive no pay
except in time of actual war or when
otherwise on active duty. To each battle
fleet of sixteen vessels four hospital ships
would be attached. On the basis Of in
teresting figures submitted by the sur
geon general of casualties in the various
naval battles of the Russo-Japanese war,
it is logical to expect, in a hard-fought
contest, an average Of about 2jO dead
and wounded men to each ship engaged.
This presupposes the engaging ships to be
of approximately equal displacement and
armament.
On this basis the four hospital ships at
tached to battle feet Of sixteen would
be able after battle, or during lull, to
remove an average OF $50 dead and
wounded men per ship in total period Of
five hours for the entire fleet.
1t was needless to point out, Surgeon
General Stokes thought. that the medical
force on each battleship, consisting of a
surgeon, his assistant, and four or five
orderlies. could not take care Of the aver
age number of injured that might be de-
pended on to result from any sort Of sus-
tanned action.
Favors Two Hospital Bases.
The medical reserve hospital ships. fly
ing the Red Cross flag and, therefore,
protected as non-combatants, are to oper-
ate. according to the Stokes plan, from
cific coast and one on the Atlantic coast.
each capable of taking care Of 1000
wounded the estimated average for a
battle fleet Of sixteen vessels, all Of which
participated in a general engagement.
The Stokes plan will receive the serious
and immediate attention Of the commit
tee. Early action on it is expected.
