preference to those able to pay their
way la private hospital, and It wa
alleged that if tbla rule was rigidly
carried out, enough patlenta, who
- could be cared tor elsewhere, would
be removed, to make room for all tbe
Inf. i '- nt new ta tbe county jails and
hemes. ' When I commenced .tha In
stigation, I confess I thought It
would appear that tea, or fifteen pa-
tienU-in " the Raleigh hospital, and
from thirty to forty "fc Morganton,
would ' bare to be removed, - aa - tot
belonging to tbe indigent clasa. To
ascertain, tbe exact facta, the super
intendent and directors of both insti
tutions made a report to me, setting
forth what patients could pay and
how much. , Then, with me. every pa
tient whose financial condition was
uncertain, was carefully looked into.
' Then, through the county Officers, and
with, the aid of gentlemen in whom 1
had confidence, the tax books were
acrntlnlted, and every effort made to
ascertain their Ability to pay. I nlso
aent Mr. B. C. Beck with, a member
of tha board of Internal Improvements
to examine every doubtful case, tin

all that kre, or are not, Indigent, .tin-

- Hents-o4?7 males and 735 females. I
also ascertained : after careful r In
quiry that to jnalntaln patlenta in a

per-year, the cheapest private hos
pital being id North Carolina where
patients are taken for fifteen dollars

the eharges'of the private bospllals,
we found la the state hospitals ; at

pay the amounts necessary for care
in -these Institutions. One has al
ready been removed and the other Is

Two Guns Per Thousand Men for an
Army of 600,000, which General
Crosier Snys is a Very Moderate
Estimate Supply Complet in
1010.
(By the Associated Press.)
Washington, Feb. 13. rGeneral
Crosier, chief of tho ordnance de
partment, has give ntestimony be
fore a sum-committee of the house
committee on appropriations In ex
planation of his estimate for tha
field guns, adopt,ea two years ago.
"The new Run," so he said, "is not
verv much more powerful than the
old sun. It Is ot a little smaller
calibre, nevertheless fifing u little
heavier projectile. The principal
difference in the carriage is that for
tho new gun it. permits a very long
recoil of the gun upon the carriage
on discharge. This recoil is some
times over three foet. For this rea
son the action of the gun upon the
carriage in the recoil is very gentle
and the carriage is not displaced nor
n . w, i,.i In i.n 1 inttl Or tha frtltl
I instead of firing one or two rounds
it minute, as was possible With the
old gun, the new gun will be ready
to be fired fifteen times in one min
ute." The general hopes to supply the
army with 250 batteries of those
guns, that Is at a rate ot two guna
licr thousand men tor an army oi
5UU.UUU men, wntcn ne says is a
very moderate estimate. "Thus far,
he said, the committee had appropri
ated enough for 69 such batteries Of
"" of which 3 Tbatter

ies have been ot the regular army
