BRADSTREETs REVIEW.

New York, Aug. 1l-Bradstrcct S
tomorrow will say;
Neither poor wheat reports nor UNI
certainty about the outcome of media
ton between railway employees and
managers, halt trade which proceeds
at an unusually good pace. Indeed
the central idea is that the outlook
for fall is otherwise most encouraging
that lesscned cereal yields will be off
set by high prices; that export trade
in most products is enormous, and
that buying power having been 50
largely increased, crop event that
would have proved well nigh disas-
trous in most ordinary years can he
endured with comparative cquanimity.
In a few places in the west, il is true,
there is Il disposition to await corn
crop del elopments.

College Needs Hospital.

Memorial Hospital performs a very
specific activity in relation to the
Medical College of Virginia, OF which
it is a part without the clinical OPP
portunities afforded in the hospital,
the college could not long maintain
its high scholastic standard, although
at present the clinical opportunities
afforded are valuable, yet such elm
ical facilities will be increased many
fold whom the proposed new hospitals
are erected, Few medical colleges
have opportunities of clinical expert
ence with contagious diseases, while
the treatment of diseases found fire.
qGently among negroes also affords a
wide range of study, The Medical
College of Virginia Will. therefore, be
distinctly increased in efficiency by
the erection of the proposed additions
to Memorial Hospital.
Many ases Refused.
During the past eight months over
a score OF contagious applicants have
been refused admission. These appli-
cations were from individuals suffer-
ing from d!phtheria or scarlet fever.
The fact that It Ia com monty known
that Memorial can not care for con-
tagious patients explains this COM
parativeiy small number of applica-
lions, II is expected that the con-
tagious ward will be crowded from
the day that the building Is open to
service,
During the past week over a dozen
negroes asked admission to the negro
ward but We're refused owing to lack
OF room, The proposed new negro
hospital affOrding five times as much
room for negro patients Will prob
ably be crowded from the start
The new buildings will be erected
according 10 the present plans during

institution maintained by the city Of
Richmond. in that the City Hospital
affords accommodation solely for the
INDECENT poor Of Richmond Memorial
Hospital differs from the private hos
pitfalls of the city, In that II affords
Il large general ward service, in addi-
ton to it's private rooms. A great
deal Of charitable work la done at
Memorial.
In Its present equipment, Memorial
Hospital affords no accommodations
for patients suffering with contaetous
disease. In fact no hospitals in the
city, at present, do afford such ac-
Commodatlons. The only place avail
able for patients so afflicted is in the
rear OF the City Home. During the
past year Memorial Hospital has had
many applications from patients suf.
fering from contagious, virulent and
infectious diseases, but was unable to
render service and 1t was necessary
for such applicants to go to Balti-
more and Washington, where ample
provisions. for the treatment OF such
diseases have been made.
