COMMITTEE MAKES REPpRT. 1 rii v-r- Institution Outside City for Only SligVtiy Effected.

'T, Commissioner of Charities Folks yesterday received the report of the committee appointed by the Academy of Medicine to Inspect three vacant bulldtngs-on Blackwells Island which it la proposed to use as asylums for the citys consumptive poor. The committee la composed of Dr. Henry P. Loomis, Dr. Edward G.

Janeway and Alfred Meyer. The committee In Its report states: That It would recommend Blackwells Island for the care only of advanced cases of consumption. That tn its opinion the buildings Inspected could be adapted for the care of this class at cases, but that the advice of the department architect should be obtained in reference to many details. In addition, the Interim' of the buildings will need to be painted and to have the cellars made dry, A supplemental note was added informing ISie Commissioner that these conclusions were nit meant as a final disposal of ths matter, but. that, since some action was required at once, the members of the commutes desired that this plan should be carried out now.

"pUs committee was appointed at my request, asld Commissioner Folks yesterday, and, composed aa it Is, of three of the first medical authorities of thf city, lta decision may be relied upon. Of the three bdlldlngs made available, one has been occupied by consumptives since last Friday. This Is the old Manhattan State Hospital. We have 120 patients there, and It will hold about eighty more. These cases were brought from Bellevue, the City Hospital, and the Metropolitan Hospital, and those that were In the wards with other patients We have two wards, containing about sixty each.

In the almshouse on' Blackwells Island, and a few more patients In wards by themselves in the Metropolitan, The old State Hospital required cleaning and pltimhjng. -This cost about $200. The other two 'buildings, however, msy need more extensive alterations. They are old atone buildings, with ramshackle floors and ceilings, and little opportunity for a free admission of light and air. In the committees report the recommendation that only advanced cases be taken to the Island Is emphasized.

Dr. Meyer was asked the meaning of this, and he replied: 1 It lo necessary to make separate pro. vision for' those In the Incipient stages and for the advanced cases. They should be kept apart. We expect to have an Institution soon, outside the city limits, where those who are only slightly affected may be taken and treated.

No provision of this sort lg' being made for the more advanced cases, and there Is a crying need ltr this, regard. There are about 25,000 consumptives In New York, and the great majority are poor, cannot pay for treatment In private sanitariums; they cannot even afford to die In a warm and cheerful place. I know of cases where the wife and children are starving because the husband, Sick with consumption, being obliged to sit In the living-room, back of the shop, drives trade away. The people are beginning to look upon this disease as they, do upon leprosy. 1 LENNEP ill THE Twenty Bookmakers Drew for Places In the Line and Did Fairly Well.

The boat originally built for Commodore Sutton, of the Brooklyn Yacht Club, has been a staunch and true craft and combines those desired attributes speed and cruising ability and comfort, a degree unusual In craft of her size and dimensions. 1 EUCHRE AT NATIONAL A.

It Is quite possible that within a year or two the Almanach de Gotha, which is a record of the royal and chief noble houses of Shirope, will begin publishing with 'the latter several of the leading families of America about -whom mucji more Interest Is felt than about the decayed nobility. A few rich Americans srs already represented In the Almanach on account of Intermarriage with prince, ly European houses, but It ts proposed to give the family name', origin, list of children, and so forth, and also collateral relatives and the amount of the American family's wealth. A Cologne dispatch states that Views have been exchanged, between several reigning families of Germany as to ths abrogation of the rule which requires members of reigning houses 'to marry only persons of similar rant There I a growing protest 'against the rule among- the unmarried '-princes and princesses on account of the narrowness of the choice permitted the difficulty of getting' a really desirable match.

The awful examplei of royal lunacy In Bavaria, the similar taint and other elgns of degeneracy In Austria and ths degrading and unnatural conditions which exist In Hesse, In Wurtem-berg. In Servla, and other reigning bouses, have alarmed the more Intelligent young Princes and princesses, Ths morganatic marriage Is a remedy worse than the disease, for it bequeaths a heritage of bitterness to children forbidden to wear the titles of their parents, Berlin advices state that the time of Prince Henrys visit Germany will appeal to the United States to ro. operate In order In Venezuela, and In securing, In that republic and In other parts South America, adequate protection for foreign mercantile Interests. It Is represented that those Interests are now at the mercy of any military tovemment that may set Itself up, and that the republics depend on the Monroe Doctrine to protect them In the commission of any outrage. Germany does not wish to assail ths Independence of any South American Stater but wants to be able to assure German subjects having interests In those 8tates that they will bd safeguarded against outrage and confiscation, i The Czar worries very much over the future of Russia In the event of ils death without an heir, or with an Infant heir.

The Czar Pas held 'In restraint the powerful ruling class which demands the expulsion of the Jews from Ttussla, and has shown liberal tendencies In other directions, which have arouzed ths opposition of many who are near lo his throne. The Czarina Is an enlightened woman, and the cessation V-r-ecution of Lutherans, Roman Catholics and Jews Is largely due -to her efforts.

There la ne doubt that, If these de mands should be granted, the price of food will rise, And the industrial population, now Iri most wretched coalition, would be worse off than befqre. At, present thousands of people in Germany are on the verge of Starvation' and many deaths have been due to the want of food.
