WORKS BOARD HAS A HEATED SESSION Mayor and Representative of Electrical Concern Have It Out.
STUEVE'S STATEMENT Says It Looks Like Something Wrong With Administration. It. C. Stueve of th Westinghouse Electric company was called before the board of works this morning and an effort was made by members of the board to find out Stueve's reasons for the charges he and other representatives of electrical concerns made through the newspapers here recently, when it was claimed that city officials bad reached an understanding with the General Electric company regarding contracts for part of the equipment for the light plant, prior to the opening of the bids. The members of the board asked Stueve the origin of the charges. After much delay and a partial denial of the stories printed by the newspapers, Stueve admitted that he had "heard it in a round about way." "That's enough," said Mayor Zimmerman, "to convince us that it is a lie. The fact that you heard it in a round about way is sufficient to show us that there are no grounds for the charges." "It looks like something is wrong in this administration," said Stueve. Mayor Zimmerman became very angry at this and exclaimed that whoever made such an accusation was a liar. "Do you mean that?" almost ehouted the mayor. "Well, it looks that way," replied Stueve. Both of the men became very heated in their arguments. Mayor Zimmerman asserting that any one who accused the city officials of graft in this case or even by saying that the awarding of the contract for machinery for the light plant was prearranged was a liar. Mayor Zimmerman then denounced the newspapers stating that the reporters were liars. ''And what's more," said the mayor to Stueve, "if you made these statements to the newspapers, you are a liar." The board resumed the work of going over the bids, announcing that no partialitv would be shown because of the trouble. As yet no decision has been reached in regard to the engine or generators as the representatives of all the companies who presented bids have not been given opportunity to talk on the merits of their machinery. The board announced this .morning that Engineer. Howard Gluys will be sent out on an inspection trip to look over some of .the machinery which has been installed in other cities by the different companies. , United doctors have ft FINE LOCATION THEY HAVE LEASED SEVERAL SUITES OF ROOMS ON THE SECOND FLOOR OF HITTLE BLOCK. WILL NOT BUILD NOW Carpenters and Mechanics Are Busy : Putting Rooms In Shape For -'f1. United Doctors. Yesterday it, was announced In these columns that he United Doctors has at last consented -to establish one of their world-famous medical institutes in Richmond jand that it would be ready to receive patients soon. The Board of Directors have been looking about the city for some time for a suitable site upon which to erecra permanent home for the Institution, but have at last decided to postpone building until summer. The Richmond institute will therefore be opened at once in a convenient down-town location. Several fine euiteB of rooms have been obtained on the second floor of the Hittle Block, corner 9th and Main streets over- the Western Union, and this building will be occupied by the institute for the first year, or until a more suitable building can be purchased or erected for.tha permanent home for their institute.) "While their quarters are too email they will lease more space as soon as possible. The work of furnishing and equipping the new institute Is being pushed as rapidly as possible, and it is hoped that patients can be received for treatment in a few days. The equipment of a United Doctors' institute is an elaborate one, the instruments necessary to the thorough diagnosis and treatment of chronic diseases are to be found in their various offices. One of the great secrets of the success of these specialists in curing diseases is their expert knowledge of medical diagnosis. So complete is their knowledge of the human body that often times by the aid of their instruments they are able to diagnose a case, describing and locating every ache and pain without asking the patient a single question. The treatment used by the United , Doctors is non-surgical. They never use the knife, never mutilate the body which God built In His image. Only the best and purest of drugs and chemgwais die uscu, men uiuiiu utj;ig mai j

every sick person is entitled to the best medicines that are to be' found in nature, regardless of cost. To obtain pure drugs they prepare their own laboratory, and every patient is thus assured a pure medicine, the best obtainable, regardless of cost. The expensive and elaborate instruments used in diagnosis, and the extreme care used In securing pure drugs and preparing thera especially, for each case, make the treatment used by the United Doctors more expensive than ordinary treatment, yet the larger number of patients treated make it possible to place the treatment within the reach of all. The venerable' old physician who will be in personal charge of the Richmond institute, is one of the first specialists on the United Doctors' staff, and one of the Directors of the Association. They have announced that in order to introduce the wonderful new system of medicines in this vicinity they decidedto secure a large number of different cases at once, and in order to secure a large number of different cases quickly, so that they can cure them at once, and thua prove to the public the wonderful curative powers of this new system of treatment, they will cure the first few enses absolutely free. The grand free offer Is as follows: All cases accepted for treatment before March 15. will be treated free of charge until they are well. Examlna tion is free and treatment will be free, the only charge being made will be for the medicine used, each patient being expected to pay for his medicines. In case of very poor people the medicine will be furnished free also. This is really a very remarkable and generous offer by these great specialists. It is not an offer of free treatment for a few weeks, but free treatment until well, regardless of the length of time. This offer is good only In cases accepted for treatment before March 15. After that date full fees will be charged to all. Consultation and examination is free to all. but only curable cases will be accepted for treatment. If your case Is Incurable you will be told so and not one penny of your money accepted. However, many cases that are Incurable by old methods can be quickly cured by this wonderful new treatment of the United Doctors. The date of the opening of the new Institute has been set at 9 a. m. next Monday. (Advertisement)
REGISTER CONCERN IS CALLED TRUST Government Seeks to Dissolve McCaskey Company Cites Its Tactics.
(National News Association) CLEVELAND, O., Feb. 20. U. S. District Attorney Denman in federal court today filed a suit for the dissotion of the McCaskey Register company of Alliance, O., charging violation of the Sherman anti-trust law. The government charges an attempt to obtain a monopoly of interstate and foreign commerce in the sale of account registers, appliances and systems for keeping credit accounts by wrongful and fraudulent obstruction and suppression of business of competitors, by the bribery of employes of rivals, employment of agents to spy upon them and unfair patent suits. Special men, known as "flying squadrons, or knockout men," it is alleged were employed to impart to agents and salesmen instructions to destroy the business of competitors, and to induce cancellation of contracts of sales with rivals. The federal court here 1b asked to restrain further monopoly and unfair practices by the defendant. Twenty-one officers, agents and other persons connected with the McCaskey company are named as defendants. The company started with a capital of $30,000 and later increased it to $1,000,000.
