DROP PROBE OF JACKSON DEATH (Continued from Bago One) for presentation Io Governor Ed JackI :,on. lays tho blame for the accident on Williams and completely exonerI ales the institution's heads of any carelessness which might have led to the patient s death . A new element lias been uncovered In the iinestigution undertaken by Dr. Ross, and that is, that tliere is a question us to the identity of Williams. A man giving his tiiune as Williams, his age as twenty-four and his residence as Lincoln t'ity Ind., was employed as an attendant at the hospital about March I. after lie hsd submitted Io tin* customary examina lion. He was not, records of the Institution show, hired as an experienced attendant, although the coroner's report indicated otherwise. An investigation, undertaken by Dr. Ross after he had summarily dismissed Williams following the accident, leads him to believe that lie used an assumed name and was a man who whs discharged as an attendant at the t'eiitrtal Hospital for the insane at Indianapolis. Used Another Name It is the policy of the insane bosj jiiials not to employ attendants discharged from other institutions ami every possible safeguard is used to prevent violation of that rule. Prosecutor Stanley has inquired of the persons signing references used ■in Williams's application ami lias learned from one that In* did not I know Williams and from another that be had not seen Williams for "a long lime". An investigation is being made Lt I incoln City by Dr. Ross to deter mine the facts in the case. Ur. Ro: s would welcome an invesli gation his friends sav. bc-iaiiso lie believes such incidents may cause (he , public to lose confidence its the state institutions. He has eo operated willingly in all the investigations thus far undertaken and has placed every available record at tho disposal of the investigators In addition he lias doiv much of the work looking to a solution of tile case himself. Left Patients Alone There is no mystery in the affair. Jackson was taken from the line on Sunday night. May 17. to be bathed as the patients were being pluced n bed. Williams, as the attendant in charge of the ward, ordered Charles Ludwig, another patient, to administer the bath and in the direct violation of the rules, according to the cor oner's tinding, left Ludwig and Jackson alone. In a short time other attendants found Jackson breathing heavily in a tub full of water and he died the i next clay, after having been removed to the hospital. The water in the tub. according to the attendants, was hot chough to scald them when they removed the patient. The heat of the water, together with the man's weakened physical condition, an- said to have- caused a shock which brought on death. All those concerned-tn the investication emphatically deny reports that Jackson was strapped in a tub of boilj ipg water. That practice is not resort'ed to in the hospital, the off icials a- - The rules relative to the bathing of patients are plain. One provides that "no patient is permitted to use the clothing room or bathroom alone ami under no circumstances shall one patient be permitted to bathe an other.” Must Test the Water Another rule provides that "the attendant doing bath duty must never * leave the bathroom while a patient is ' in the bath," and still another says that "the attendant in charge of the bath will invariably test the temperature- of the waji-r with his bare hand and arm bes-re permitting the patient to get into tho tub. Under no circumstances should the water be turned on | while the patient is in the tub. Do not forget the danger of scalding." Criticism has been made, since Jack- 1 on's death, of the manner in whi< h attendants are employed in the hospitals and tiiat leads to one of the problems that < onfront all state inrtitHtlonn, aeording to Mr. Brown. Ev ery effort is made to get high grade' attendants amt to investigate them b - ' fore they ate employed. Rule for Attendants In addition to having liis applies tlon signed by three persons personally acquainted witn him. an applicant must subscribe to the following general rule: “As the insane are confided to our care for protection as well as trealmciit. no persitu v. ill be employed here in any capacity who is not willing to do al! in bls or her power to aid us. Should any abuse or neglect of a patient come under their notice.' it will be their especial duty to report it at once to the superintendent, who can always be seen for that purpose Should it at any time appear that abuse or neglect has been witnessed and not brought to the notice

|of the superintendent or medical officer, It will result In the immediate dismissal of all parties concerned. Persons governed by the so culled honor that prevents reporting the abuse of a helpless Insane patient are not wanted at this hospital.” In tho last year there has been a turnover of 208 per cent, in the attendants at the Eastern Hospital, showing the labor situation tu be serious. Most of these people resigned, i although some were discharged tor carelessness. U is a peculiar fact. too. that about 35 per cent of the eniplojes come from Perry. Urawford. Spencer. Floyd and Harrison counties. —— DIES SUDDENLY LN WASHINGTON THIS MORNING (Continued from Page one) and fC’clected in 1916. Following his retirement to private life in 1921. he was appointed by President Harding a member of the United Stales coal commission. His home was Indianapolis. Indiana. As a presiding officer of the sen at'-. Marshal) probably ranked as one of tile most popular in the history of that body. His impartiality was nev er questioned and his ready wit ell livened what, otherwise would have been dreary proceedings. Ho had a host of friends on both sides of the chamber and the esteem in which lie was held was testified to by the presetaion to h in of a huge loving cup on behalf of both republicans and democrats when he transferred the gavel to Vice-President Coolidge in 1921. Marshall survived his chief. Woodrow Wilson by just a short time less than 15 months. He was 71 years old.-r I mm learning of Marshall's death. President Coolidge sent a letter to Mrs Marshall expressing his regret ind sympathy and declaring Marshall's power of making friends war-1 "truly remarkable.” The letter follows: "My dear Mrs. Marshall: "Just this moment the shocking intelligence has come to me ot the death of your distinguished husband and I hasten to express to you not only my deep* sympathy and condolences, but the real sense of personal loss. Mr. Marshall's long ami notable public service, both in Indiana and as vicepresident for eight years, had won for him recogution of high character and exceptional abilities. “Beynod this and something that he would have prized even more dearly, lie had drawn to himself a truly remarkable power of friends and friendship extending to every part of ilie nation and beyond it. His delightful fund of humor illuminated a philospoliy of life ami affairs tiiat tliere is none i ooccupy. Governor Sends Message Indianapolis. June I—(Speciall—(Special to Daily Democrat)—Governor Jackson today wired a message of sympathy Marshall, former governor of Indiana to the widow of the late Thomas R. ami foimer vice-president of the I I nited States. Governor Jackson suggested that the body of Marshall be brought to Indianapolis on the way to Mation. Indiana, for burial, so that it can lie in state at the state house. Columbia City. June I—(Special to Daily Democrat)—Word of the death of Thomas R. Marshall, former vicepresident of the United States today brought universal sorrow to citizens of liis home town. To everyone of the town’s 4.(100 inhabitants, lie was known familiarly ar, “Tom" and liked for his neighborly qualities and keen humor. Although Thomas Marshall made bis ( home in Indianapolis from the time of his election of Governor in 1908. ■ he never lost contact with his old friends here. 1 During the past few years he bad ■made frequent visits here spending hours swapping stories with those who had watched his rise from I c< untry lawyer to the vice-presidency. If the funeral is held at Marion, as |tenetively arranged, a large delegation of Columbia City residents will ,go there. Preparations are expected to be made iater for public services hern Marshall's last speech xvas made lure when on May 20 he spoke I to the graduating class of the Columbia City high school. o— HOSPITAL NOTES — j Oscar Hoffman, of Preble, underi st an emmergency operation at tile Adams County Memorial hospital Saturday night and is recovering satisfactorily I Rev F D. ’.Viiitfcsell was admitted to the local hospital for medical treatment.
