Board of Charities in Report
Denounces the Filthy Con-
ditions at the Wayne Coun-
ty Infirmary.
ASKS INSTITUTION
BE SANITARY ONE
The Board Recommends that
Premises Be Brought Into
Condition to Compare with
Other Homes.

Declaring that the mems building at
the Wayne county infirmary is actual
ly filthy in places, the board Of coun-
ty charities this afternoon filed re-
Port on conditions at the inflrmary
with the board of county commission
ers. The report states that the mems
toilet rooms are very uncleanly and
should be looked after Immediately.
The report also makes a number Of
recommendations, which the board of
charities believes should be carried
cut in order to make the institution
sanitary.
No complaint was made Of the food
and clothing given the inmates. The
health of the inmates was fair. The re-
port says, however, that there is one
case of tuberculosis and that the suf-
The tent, the report says. is badly htt-
ed for such purpose and 1t is suggested
that a change be made.
Report Made.
The report in part follows:
On August 20, the board of charities
inspected the county infirmary. There
are forty-four inmates. twenty-eight
being males and sixteen females. OF
this number three are insane, two be
ing females and one male. Two in.
mates are victims of epilepsy.
The general conduct of the in.
mates is fairly good. Now and then
there is an infraction of the regula
tions tnat requires some form of pun
ishment, and as corporal punishment
should not be inflicted, solitary con
finement on bread and water is recon-
mended by the board for extreme
cases.
A room should be fitted up in the
mems basement of the mems building
where there is silence and darkness
necessary for such punishment.
The board recommends that the
premises be brought into proper con
dition to compare with we'll regulated
institutions. The grounds should be
leveled and the walks should be built
and grass sown SO as to make the
surroundings clean and tidy.
Things have too much OF a neglect
ed appearance.
The kitchen range is defective and
inadequate for the requirements of the
! institution. The porch between the
mems building and the kitchen should
receive coat of paint at once.
The report is signed by Katherine
Galloway, secretary of the board.

Suggestions Made to the
County Treasurer in the
Report Of Field Examiners
of the State.
RECEIPT CHECKING
FOUND DIFFICULT
Handling Some Accounts Of
the City Cause for Confus-
ion, the State Officials
Discover.

A change in the county bookkeeping
system probably will be brought about
as the result of suggestion made to
County Treasurer Albertson in the re-
port of Field Examiner James B.
Smith and Harry Boggs.
The report covers the period be-
tween January 3, 1910 and April 80,
1912, and although there are some de-
ficits and surpluses in certain ac-
counts of the city which are ultimate
ly handled by the county treasurer,
who acts as city treasurer, it is believ-
ed that these are due to the system of
bookkeeping used in the Office rather
than to errors. 1t is likely that the sys-
tenn will be changed with the advent
OF the next city treasurer. The records
of the treasurer are regular but diff
ferences exist between his records and
those of local banks.
In the recapitulation, the report
shows that on April 80, 1912, there
was surplus in the general fund of
$S7747 and a surplus in the cash
street Improvement fund of $1,3os.2s,
making total of $2,285.75, as compar-
eG with the books of the bank in which
the money is deposited. There was
deficit of 1882 in the municipal elec-
trio light fund and deficit of $520.74
in the special (waiver) street improve
ment fund, making total deficit of
$3.50. .06.
Check Receipts.
In regard to this matter the field ex-
s.miners declare that it is impossible
to check the receipts of the city into
the banks, as deposits, for the reason
that deposits are made in lump sums
end lose their identity as receipts. The
report further states that not all col
lections are deposited on the day Of
collection and that the examiners are
unable to account for the surplus in
the general fund unless it is in the
special improvement money placed in
the wrong fund.
Under the caption "Uncollected Tax
es" the report says: .-.
During the year of 1905 the city
treasurer collected the taxes for the
city of Richmond on city duplicates
for the year of 1904.
with the beginning of the year
1906 the city taxes were collected by
the county treasurer on the county du-
rlicates, When the 1905 duplicates
were made up for the treasurer the
old real estate delinquents were. not
carried forward from the 1904 city
duplicates. Consequently they were
dropped entirely from the records the
county treasurer starting off with a
Clean slate as far as the city taxes
were concerned.
I'VE find that $1.145.12 of delinquent
taxes was dropped when the 1905 du.
plicate replaced those of 1904.
These old delinquencies are prop
crly extended on the 1904 duplicate
and should be carried forward to the
present duplicate and collected the
same as other delinquencies are col
Iected."
The balance in the general fund
April 80 was s27,27393; in the muni
-cipal electric light fund, $34, 4,503.82 in
the special (waiver) street improve
lnent fund, $6,545.27; and in the cash
street improvement fund $4,SaS20
making total of $73,22122. The total
general fund outstanding warrants al
that time was $5.77924

MADE ATTACK UPON
BOTH OLD PARTIES
The Colonel Says They Have
Both Outlived Their Use
fulness.-T. r. Stands the
Strain Well.
(National News Association

RENO. New. Sept. 14.-Into this
town of divorce came Col. Roosevelt
today to hammer at the two opposing
parties. In a fifteen-minute stop the
ex-president expressed the opinion
that the Decocrats and Republicans
will wake up after the election to find
they have forfeited the confidence of
the people. He was greeted here by a
large and enthusiastic crowd.
II think I'll find out that the voters
have taken matters in their own
hands, instead of putting them In the
hands of the BOSSES" said the Colonel,
earnestly 1.-The two old parties are tot
tering on their last legs. The Progress
sives are going to push them over.
"Of course we feel sorry that the old
parties have outlived their usefulness"
the colonel continued. "Our sorrow
will be prompted by regret that two
such potent forces have fallen into
such disrepute. Regret that the Repub-
lican party is dead does not spring
from any desire to see 1t verified. 1t
is futile to hope for anything worth
while from the Republican party any
longer.

beyond hope of usefulness the Progress.
sive party has sprung up. It's not a
mere whisp of party, either, but one
that is going to give the old parties a
whipping and then start in to give
sonetnfng in the way of government
Roosevelt reached here this morn
ing at 9 o'clock after a dizzy trip OF
five days from Helena, Mont, during
which he was on the road nearly the
entire time. In the past seven days
the Colonel has slept on his car every
right buto ne. He has made most OF
his speeches during the last week
from the end of his car or at platforms
near the depots. At Portland he left
the car for six hours, during which
period he was on the go every min
ute.
The ex-president has been away
from New York on this western swing
thirteen days. He feels better, he said
today, than when he started. In tina,
time Roosevelt has made thirty eigh,
speeches, talking to crowds approx
mating 10000.
Roosevelt left here on a special train
for a run to Sacramento. He winds uI
the day with a night speech at Sar
Francisco.

oUTRAGEs CONTINUE.

DOUGLAS. Ariz., Sept. 14.-A cour-
ier arrived here today with the infor-
nation that part of Gen. Salzar's fore
es raided the Mormon colony Thurs
day, killing Edward Haymore, an
American, whose body was found Ia
ter, partly devoured by hogs. The reb-
els sacked the ranch and burned many
homes. An appeal made by U. S. Con-
sui Dye to Mexican federal officers at
Aqua Prieta to pursue the rebels met
with flat refusal. The Mexican govern
ment appears to be powerless and Dye
has appealed to Washington, sending
details of the outbreak.
Gen. Sa1azar at daybreak today re-
newed his attack on Eligre. The Amer
leans are holding out as best they can
and believe they can defend the place
until Monday.

DoUBLE-HEADER NOTES.

Umpire Bill Dineen. after the morning
game, said: That boy Engel looks like
the find of the season. He was as cool
as a cucumber under fire, and believe
me the youngster has enough stun to
get him by in the American League. I
believe he will be a great pitcher some
day" Coming from Dineen. an old
pitcher himself. this bouquet listens good.
Hooper and Yerkes were helpless before
EngeI. while Hugh Bradley touted as a
heavy hitter struck out three times
against Walter johnson in the afternoon
game.
In the sixth inning OF the second game
Walter johnson stopped a line drive
from Duffy Lewis bat that was labeled
safe hit. The ball went like a shot
and Johnson put up his hands to save
himself from being hit in the face, the
ball stuck in his glove.
Howard shanks did not get a hit yes
terday until his last appearance at the
bdt in the seventh inning of the after
noon game. Then he came through with
a pretty single. The kid made several
pretty catches during the morning game,
and also felded his position faultlessly
in the afternoon.
The Nationals left Boston on the HIS
train last night bound for St Louis,
where they will open a four-gsme series
against the Browns on Saturday. Bob
Groom is slated to pitch the opener.

the plate.
During the next four innings Engel did
not allow a safe hit The Nationals
jumped into the lead. after two were out
in the fifth, when Al Williams doubled
to center and came all the way home on
Yerkes' tumble or Engers grounder.
The Red Sox's eighth was a heart
breaker for Grin. Speaker, first up, flied
to Walker. Lewis hit an easy grounder
to Knight. and was safe when Jack
fumbled the ball With two strikes on
Gardner. Engel shot one in the groove
and away sailed the pill to deep right
for a three-bagger, scoring Lewis. A
long fly TO Milan by Bradley brought
over the winning tally.
