HOSPITAL INVESTIGATION. a i i.n.ri r.rut- Treatment By Attend rtnyvM . - - ants at Institution at Raleigh. (Soeciai Star Telegram.) Raleigh, N. C, Sept 13. In the prog ress of the Investigation of the man agement of the State Hospital for the Insane here to-day only one person had to make complaint of cruel treatment He was a former patient, Lindsay by nam, from Greene county, who com nlained of cruelty by attendants that he was ducked in cold water and otherwise ' roughly handled. The at tendants were summoned by the direc tors and , they testified that they did not use cruel treatment;, that the pa tient was "very nervous and excitable and physicians recommended that cold baths be used to quiet hii nerves. Quite a number of letters were read from former patients complaining of cruelty on the part of attendants but nearly all were complaints against the-for mer administrations, an investigation of which at this time would not be proper.
