BLUFFS
DOCTORS SECURE HOSPITAL
Woman's Christian Aitociatisfl VoUi t
Turn Otm OontreL
MUCH OPPOSITION TO PROPOSED CHANGE
Leader Was Lacking for the Aatl
Fare aaa the Proposition Car
rled by Derisive Majority
Whea Vote Was rat.
The Woman's Christian association at Its
annjal meeting yesterday afternoon voted
In fsvor of surrendering the complete con
trol and management of its hospital to the
physicians and henceforth the Institute will
be known as the Council Bluffs General
hospital Instead of the Women's Christian
Association hospital.
In order to bring about this Changs the
association will reincorporate for fifty
years and amended Its by-laws and articles
of incorporation to conform, to the new
order of things.
Twenty physicians, selected from those
practicing In the city and the immediate
vicinity, will constitute the board of hospi
tal directors and will be named by the as
sociation. These directors will hava com
plete management of the hospital, with the
power of hiring and discharging all em
ployes, purchasing all supplies and equip
ment snd collection of all moneys due for
services. They will also have authority to
bind the association by contract In all mat
ters pertaining to the hospital and training
school for nurses and the treasurer of the
association will be required to psy all drafts
and orders of ths hospital directors for
moneys necessary to be expended In ops
ration of the Institution.
The physicians selected to constitute ths
board of hospital directors will be called
upon to pay annual dues not exceeding $25,
the amount to bo determined by the gen
oral board of directors of the association.
In amending the bylaws and articles of
Incorporation It was decided to raise tho
annual dues of members from II to 12 and
the Initiation fee from 1 to .12. Heretofore
at the annual election of officers a vice
president has been selected to represent
each church, but under the amended arti
cles there will be but one vice president.
Owing to the time consumed yesterday
afternoon In discussing the proposed change
In the management of the hospital the elec
tion of officers, reading of the annual re
ports of the several officers and selecting
the physicians to constitute the board of
hospital directors were postponed until an
adjourned meeting to be held next Monday
afternoon.
Mneh Opposition to Plan,
Many of tho members of tho association
were strongly opposed to relinquishing the
management of the hospital, but the oppo
sition appeared to lack a leader, and the
proposition to surrender In favor of the
doctors carried by a vote' of 66 to 18, sev
eral declining to vote either way.
Mrs. George T. Phelps, opo of the pioneer
leaders of the association and one of Its
most active workers, suggested that rather
turn the hospital over to the doctors the
association convert It Into an old women's
home or elsa sell the property to the doc
tors. This suggestion met with . consider
able favor among many of the members, as
was Indicated by the discussion which fol
lowed, .and It was stated after the meeting
that If Mrs. Phelps had put her suggestion
In tho form of a motion It would probably
have carried, as there was a strong under
current of opposition to allowing the doc
tors to have thelf own way entirely. But,
as before stated, the opposition seemed to
lack a leader, and when the question was
finally put before the meeting was out
voted. No secret was made of the fact that sev
eral members who were opposed to the
change will leave the association, but. as
Mrs. Lucas, tho president, remarked,
"there will be others to take their places."
A resolution directing the directors of the
association to take steps to erect a new
hospital and confer with the board of hos
pital directors as to plans, etc., had been
prepared, but Its submission was deferred
until the adjourned meeting next Monday.
Drs. Donald Macrae, Jr., M. A. Tinley
and P. W. Dean, aa a committee from the
physicians, appeared before the meeting
and presented the proposition to turn over
the hospital to their exclusive manage
ment. TWO OP TUB S18PECT9 RELEASED
Evidence Acremalates Agmlnst the
Other Fair. ' ,
Fred Colgate and C. 11. Qrott, arrested
Sunday on suspicion pf being implicated
In the blowing ot the safe -of. the Treynor
bank Friday night, were released yester
day, they having succeeded In satisfying
the authorities that they had nothing to
do with the attempted robbery. .; Jt ' was
found that - they had registered at the
Metropolitan hotel In Omaha Friday night.
The handwriting, that of Colgate who reg
istered for himself and companion, on the
register of tho Metropolitan hotel was the
same as that on the register of the
Revere house in this city, where the men
slept Saturday night. J
Albert Llmburg, hired man at Arthur
Baar'a place, who found twe men Satur
day evening hidden In the hay loft of the
bam, and Adolph Schults, a farmer who
saw the two men running from the barn
after Llmburg had gone for assistance,
looked at Colgate and droit yesterday and
declared they were not the men seen In
the barn.
An Information, however, was filed yes
terday against John Bernstein and James
Arthur, tho' suspects arrested Saturduy,
charging them with entering and breaking
and exploding dynamite or nitroglycerine
In a .building, the maximum prgialty for
which Is twenty-frvo years' Imprisonment
In the penitentiary. This Is the severest
charge which could bo filed' against the
prisoners.
When asked If they wished to bo' ar
raigned yesterday both Bernstein and Ar
thur replied in the negative and said they
were willing to stay where they were for
tho present at least. Both Still continue to
refuse to' talk.
Additional evidence Implicating these two
men has -been secured by the authorities.
Otto Baar yesterday was shown Bern
stein at the county jail, and he positively
Identified him as the man who stopped at
his place near Treynor Friday evenlnv
and1 asked the way to that town. Bern
stein has also been Identified by the pro
prietor of a small restaurant la Treynor,
who stated that ho ata at his place one
day In the early part of last week. Bern
stein Is also said to have been seen by
several parties In Treynor about three
weeks aio. . 1 - .
When Sheriff Canning' went fo Treynor,
nunday he took with him the shoes worn
by Arthur, the elder of the two suspects.
They were found, to exactly fit tho tracks
In the snowdrift where the wagon and
mule leant were abandoned early (Saturday
moraine
Front thatr talk, tha sheriff Is confident
that Bernstein and Arthur are what are
known as "yegg men." or second class
cracksmen. Tho case Is now being In
vestigated try the grand Jury, and this
will probably save any preliminary hear
ing for the two suspects, seeing that the
are not anxious to have one.
SHERIFF ISCERTAI ABOIT LISES
Asks Conrt to Appoint Commission to
Locate Them.
As Judge Thornell has intimated that ho
would dissolve the Injunction secured by
the motor company restraining the en
forcement of the execution Issued by Judge
Bcott of the superior court in the Manawa
fence case, Sheriff Canning yesterday riled
In the superior court an application for
the appointment of a commissioner to de
termine the boundaries of the streets and
territory In controversy". Until this is de
termined Sheriff Canning states he will
be unable to execute the Judgment.
The motor company has removed the
fence across Third street and back of tho
B. Marks place and yesterday was tak
ing down the bridge and' stairway over
Park avenue at the main entrance to the
resort. The plaintiffs in the suit, how
ever, Insist that the fence on tho east
side of the resort Is in Third street and
demand that It be removed. Tho motor
company on the other hand contends that
tho Tence is well within Its territory, and
It Is this point which Sheriff Cunning de
sires determined before he acts.
Just before the close of last year the
motor company filed with the Board of
County Supervisors a petition asking that
the following streets, avenues and alleys
In Manawa park be vacated In Its favor:
All that part of the street In the plat
of Manawa park known as Portland ave
nue, lvlng west of Third street.
All that part of the street In the plat
of Manawa park known as South Fourth
street, south of Park avenue.
All that part of the street In Regatta
Place known as Regatta avenue, lying

park known as South Third street, south
of Portland avenue.
Also the alleys in blocks 27, 2R, 29, 30, 31.

line of plat of Munawa park to Its Inter
section with Main street, or the county

In Manawa and others will file a strong
protest ngalnst the supervisors vacating

MRS. LOTTIE St'OTT FOt'SD DEAD
Coroner In vest larallnir f'lrpnmstanees
Sorroundlnsr Case.
Mrs. Lottie Scott, a rather eccentric char
acter, was found dead last evening in the
room In which she lived alone at 1012
Fourth street. The discovery was made by
members of a family named Fltjgcrald,
who occupied one side of the building. In
dications were that death was due to
natural causes, as the woman had recently
complained of being sick.
Falling to hear her about her room, Mrs.
Fitzgerald went to the door, but was un
able to get In. Becoming alarmed she sent
for Robert Arnd, administrator of an es
tate of which the dead woman was heir,
Mr. Arnd being ill and unable to leave the
house. Attorney Emmet Tinley was sent
for and he succeeded in entering the room
by a window. Mrs. Scott was found lying
against the door, fully dressed and with
her shawl about her head as If preparing
to go out Tha body was still warm. In
dicating that sho had been dead but a
short while.
Coroner Treynor was notified and he or
dered the body removed to Undertaker Cut
ler's rooms. Dr. Treynor stated lost night
that until he had further Investigated the
circumstances surrounding the woman's
death he would not decide as to holding an
Inquest.
Mrs. Scott had been a resident of this
city for forty yoars. She was one of three
daughters of a man named Sapp, who,
twenty-five years ago, conducted a saloon
on South Main street. Sapp was found
murdered one morning in his saloon and no
clue was ever discovered and the murder
remains today one of the unsolved crimes
of this city.
A number of years ago Mrs. Scott's hus
band secured a divorce and Is said to have
married again. She has a son who Is
thought to bo living In Missouri. Mrs.
Scott was extremely eccentrlo be
sides having tho reputation of be
ing extremely miserly. When her re
maining sister, Mrs. Mary Brown, died, she
became heir to the property left by her.
The estate Included the premises at 1(112
Fourth street, where Mrs. Scott occupied
one room and rented tho remainder of tho
building. By the neighbors she'was thought
10 nave considerable money. She hnf
60 years of age.

the certificates and documents ready tne
electors took the ballots on president and I
vice president. After the formality of
balloting for president and vice president
of the United States the electors again bal
loted on ths offlce of messenger. During
the eighteen ballots Mr. Turner at no

Investigate Crnelty Charge.
As a result of a preliminary investiga
tion of the charges against the Soldiers
Orphans' home at Davenport by Miss Clare
Lunbeck. state agent for tho board of con
trol, Superintendent Sessions will probably

saulted Miss Jennie Meyers, who was tem
porarily in charge of the boys In tho ab
sence of the regular matron. Ho struck her

Scores National Guard.
In his report to Adjutant General Byers,
Major J. A. Olmsted gives a scoring to tho
officers of tho Fifty-fifth regiment, which
Is In charge of General James Rush Lincoln.
The report says:
There was much complaint In the Fifty-
fifth that tho ration was not sufficient
Upon investigation it was found due to tho
fact that the companies were feeding a
number of officers and their families and
other unauthorized parties for whom no
rations could be Issued. Had the regl-

their duty and obeyed their orders this
trouble would have been avoided.

VERMILLION, 8. D., Jan. . (Speclal.)-
The people of this city are somewhat In
terested in the outcome of a case Instituted
In McCook county by the State Pharmacy
board to determine whether or not a cltl
sen is entitled to operate a drug store with
out being a registered pharmacist. The law
has generally been Interpreted to mean that
as long as the proprietor of a drug storo
engaged a registered pharmacist to look
after prescriptions ha was not doing busi
ness In an illegitimate way. Should a de
cision be rendered contrary to this former
precedent two drug stodes in Vermillion
would have to close up shop or make some
arrangement whereby the firm name would
be changed.

that she looks forward to the critical
hour with apprehension and dread.
