THE CRUELTY CHARGES AT OAK
FOREST CLAIMED UNFOUNDED
Commissioner Coonley submitted
minority report on Oak Forest in
Urinary, in which the institution is
exonerated. The charges of cruelty
are said to be unfounded in this re
port. 1t is signed by Commissioners
Coonley, Gard, Moriarity, Anderson
and Mitchell. They say it was sub
mitted for the following reasons:
First, certain members of this
board, stimulated and assisted by the
states attorneys Office, which should
be engaged in other and worthier &C
tivities, have been instrumental in
giving to the press statements cal
culated to discredit the county in
Urinary,
Second, these members have sub
sequently refused to furnish their fell
low members on this board with facts
on which these charges we're based.
Third, they have refused to allow
those members of the board whom
they cannot control to take part in
the investigation, so-called, which
they are conducting.
'Since the two members most
active in this matter have previously
made strenuous attempts to bring
discredit upon the County Hospital,
we are forced to the conclusion that
they are trying to do the same with

1.-The question, a committee composed
OF one banker from each OF the banks
/ of the city was named and this cons
mittee is meeting this afternoon to
discuss the matter further. The fol-
lowing men were named upon this
committee: Walton Miller, chair
man: H. W. showalter, G. r. Hall.
M. A. Fletcher. Harvey Shain, Hugh
Smith and J. Clarence Hall.
The cotton loan fund is a plan
submitted by the bankers of New
York and st. Louis, to the Federal
Banking Reserve Board by which u
fund OF $135, 100000 is to be raised
for the relief OF the cotton growers
LOT the south. On account of the o.
financial and trade conditions OF tho
country at the present time 1t has
been impossible for the planters to
market their cotton and as they are
compelled to depend in large meas

originating OF the Cotton Loan
Fund"
The bankers Of New York city are
pledging $5O,OO0,00O Of the amount
and $35, 100000 has been pledged
by the banks OF the southern cotton
growing states. This leaves $500
900, 900 as the part which the ball
ance Of tile United States is asked to1
raise. The amount proportioned to
Fairmont is only $4,000.
Tie bankers of this city feel that
they should aid in the work IL posi-
bic and many fthem are no doubt
willing to make personal sacrifice
in order to raise the amount. While
Fairmont is not in cotton grow
ing state and many Of the citizens
are unfamiliar with the causes that
make this fund necessary, everybody
who has read the plea sent to Fair
mont by the banking committee OF
lRichmond, Va, has readily fallen in
with the idea and approved the plans.
At a meeting of the bankers com
