BEWARE, 0 HE DOCTORS!
Mr. Flower, of Boston. Will Get
You if You Don't Watch Out.
WAR ON "MEDICAL TRUST"
Leader of New Movement in
"Canned" Interview Threat
ens Many Dire Things.
B. O. Flower, of Boston, came to town
yesterday. He came prepared, too. copying
the method of Prince Tokugawa, the il
lustrious Japanese who left here last week,
with a ''canned* interview, which he had ,
dictated and which was typewritten, and;
winch he handed out eagerly to every one
xi ho called at his office in the Metropolitan
Building and made a noise like a reporter.
Mr. Flower announced that he was
rtrongiy opposed to doctors, at least to ail
tlie doctors of America who were members
of the American Medical Association, and
as Flower said himself that a great ma
jority of doctors were in the association it
was apparent ri^ht at the start that he
was In for a bis fight and didn't blanch at
the prospect.
Speaking generally. Mr. Floorer says that
doctors charge too much and are aiming at
political influence, but particularly as he
candidly confessed, his objections were that
doctors other than those of the allopathic
school were not recognized sufficiently, and
that the Owen bill, now before the Senate,
contemplated a still greater recognition of
that school. Flower is not a doctor of any
school, but he admits that he has had a
leaning since childhood to the homoeopaths.
On the door of his office in the Metro
politan Building is inscribed "The National
Tx-agUQ for Medical Freedom," and Mr.
Flower's carefully prepared interview states
that the league was formed for the pur
pose of Sghtins the proposed establishment
of a national health bureau.
This bureau which would be created by
tho Owen bill Mr. Flower declared would
inrrcach in power the •"doctors' trust."
One insurgent interviewer, departing en
tirely from the rules of the "canned" inter
view, wanted to know what the doctors'
trust* was, and Mr. Flower interjected the
'•s.pla.nation that it was tho great body of
doetoni "who charged for their visits.
• X y," said Mr. Flower vaguely, and with
* wide, sweeping gesture, "all those doctors
vh» .charge The poor men for their visits
charge them a fixed price, no matter how
r"»©r they are— the patients, I mean."
The operins: sentence of Ills "interview"
claimed for tJie new league the membership
c' homoeopaths, osteopaths, Christian Scien-
Jists and anti-vivisectionists, and gave a
list of members of the advisory board, made
up chiefly of residents of Chicago. Kansas
City and other Western cities.
His little philippic teemed with such gr>n
lio expressions as "medical autocracy." "en-
Rin<> of oppression," "monopoly seeking
jucdical men," "despotism in medicine," and
It seemed as Mr. Flower talked on that the
cjnotor? of the country were pretty close Is
i a Trying away th« national Treasury or
something' like thai.
However, as lie continued it appeared
that there was no fear of that as long as
the National L«eague for Medical Freedom,
organized yesterday, was in the field. In
cidentally. President F'ower stated for the
Vague that the new organization was well
equipped with funds to carry on the fight.
Senator Hobert H. Owen, of Oklahoma,
v ho introduced the bill which contemplates ,
Hie establishment of a national health
luircau or department, when seen yesterday
did not seem to be unduly excited about
Hip possible opposition threatened by Mr.
Flower's league.
"That kind of talk Is all nonsense," said
Senator Owen. "There is nothing in it. My
bill doesn't contain a word about curtailing
curative methods: It seeks only to further
preventive methods."
Mr. FBower admitted unbluphingly that he
■»n!? th« leader of the third great move
ment of the world's history.
"There was the political movement for
democracy in politics and the religious
movement for democracy and toleration In
religion, and now the medical movement
for democracy in medical matters," he ex
rla.iri«d. and when he was asked about the
forraation of the new league he pictured
It a* a •.•-? of spontaneous movement
against the awful tyranny of the doctors.
"T was asked to take- the presidency,"
*^id Mr. Flower, of Boston." and I took it.**

OBJECTED TO JAIL FARE
Pittsburg- Bribe Givers Wanted
Meals from Outside Prison.
[By Telegraph to The Tribune. 3
Pittsburg. May 15. — The first Sunday
In jail for Pittsburg: bribe givers -uas a
hard one. This morning A. A, Vilsack,
a millioniJre; Hugh Ferguson, Dr. W.
H. "Weber and others, who were sent to
jail last evening, had their first trouble
with the warden, William Lewis.
All had arranged for meals to be fur
nished from outside the prison, but they
were told plainly this morning that they
must eat the prison fare or go hungry.
Vilsack wept when compelled to eat the
prison food.
None of the new prisoners wanted to
go to the chapel exercises this after
noon, but they were compelled to do so,
Vilsack having to be brought from his
cell by turnkeys.
An interesting story regarding the
postponement of sentence on President
Edward H. Jennings of the Columbia
■National Bank came to light here to
day. It is expected that the banker will
within the next few days become a
grandfather, and his request was that
he be not sent to prison until after this
event.
Mr. Jennings authorized his attorney
to promise the court that he would hurry
into court within an hour after the birth
of his grandchild, if necessary. Under
these conditions the court granted Jen
nings an extension of time "not to ex
ceed ten days."
Councilman Klein, whose testimony
has done bo much to convict all those
now being sentenced, is most bitter in
denunciation of the courts for giving
these rich or prominent men jail sen
tence? instead of sending them to the
penitentiary, where he is at this time.
SUBWAY RARING TO-DAY

BULLETS PURCHASER'S PAY
Salesman Shot When He Asked Man to
Settle for Goods Just Bought.
On a charge of shooting Patrick Lynch,
a salesman, of Xn. 3i<; East r>7th street,
"William Hademan. who said that he was
an escaped prisoner from Matteawan State
Asylum for th^ Criminal Insane, was ar
raigmed Yesterday in Yorkville Court and
held without bail for further examination.
At Flower Hospital, whither Lynch was
taken, it was said last night that he had
sufficiently recovered to go home. Andrew
i^assidy and Albert Mere held as
material witnesses.
Shortly before midnight on Saturday
Hademan entered the clothing store of
Louis Ludw!?. of No. JC4 Third avenue, and
said he wanted to buy a suit. Hademan se
lected three of them. While these were be
ing wrapped up h* chose another suit, and
It was suggested by Lynch that he pay for
what he had already picked out,
"Here's your pay," said Hademan, as he
pulled a revolver from his pocket and fired
three bullets into Lynch's head. Patrol
men Masterson and Beaufrere rushed into
the store and after some trouble got the
smoking revolver from Hademan. At the
station house the. prisoner sa.id he escaped
from Matteawan a. nvmth apo, where he
had been confined for shooting his mother.
The police have no record of any one
escaping from that Institution Jn the last
few months.

JUDGE FOSTER HITS BACK
If 'Phone Be Graft. Make Most
of It, He Tells Controller.
FOR COURT MATTERS ALONE
Whitman Also Explains Why
City 'Phones for His Staff
Are a Necessity.
Judge "Warren "W. Foster, of General Ses
sions, and District Attorney Whitman have
satisfied Controller Prendergast regarding
the private telephones in their respective
homes. Incidentally the District Attorney
has made clear the necessity of a telephone
in the home of James Hammill, the stenog
rapher of his office, who is required at
all hours of the day and night to take
ante-mortem statements of homicide vic
tims or statements of persons accused of
such crimes, while the cases are fresh and
before prisoners have opportunity to manu
facture evidence.
In his letter Mr. "Whitman goes into de
tails of the reasons for his being in close
touch at all times with his assistants, the
Coroner's office and the Police Department,
and states that for his private purposes the
telephone of the Iroquois Hotel, in which
te resides, is sufficient.
"I have no doubt that after a careful con
sideration of this matter you will concur
with the decisions of the courts as to the
discretionary powers conferred on the Dis
trict Attorney in all matters pertaining to
the management of said office," is one
paragraph in the District Attorney's letter
to the Controller. He states that ho has
just read Judge Foster's letter with regard
to his telephone, and fully agrees with "his
opinion in the matter."
The opinion of Judge Foster Is set forth
in a letter -written to the Controller on. May
11, and is as follows:
1 beg to acknowledge the receipt of your
letter (the coming of which was duly her
alded in tho newspapers), asking: "Is there
a strong public reason why the city should
pay for this telephone?"— referring to the
telephone maintained at ray lodging's.
"Unless such reason exists," you say. ''in
conformity with a determination which I
have reached, I shall refuse to audit the
biil for its maintenance." You further ex
press the hope that I "will give this matter
attention and inform you regarding it," al
though the public press, when it announced
in advance your letter, made the state
ment that District Attorney "Whitman and
the writer (with others) had been caught in
the "Controller's graft net."
'Phono a Personal Nuisance.
At the outset, permit me to say that 1
know of no "private" reason whatever for
the maintenance of this telephone, which
is solely for public business and conven
ience. Par from being a private conven
ience, it Is a personal nuisance.
That it is a public convenience will be
testified by many a poor fellow who has
been spared a night in .iail because of it.s
existence. On many a coi.i night T have
bten summoned from my warm cut. whether
I wanted tj> or not, only t<> shiver at the
telephone as I received word that gome
unfortunate .under arrest would give bail
if I would accept it.
I have no family to avail of this tele
phone ( whose cost to the city, I sco, is
stated in the newspapers to be $S6 per an
num!), and without it I can live a life of
nocturnal ease and quietude.
This telephone has been maintained by
tho city upward of ten years. T did isot
ask for it originally. It was installed and
publicly listed under my name as a public
convenience about the time that I went
upon the bench, and I accepted it as one
of the obligations of my office, whoso
duties, I conceive, do not end with the go
ing down of the sun.
The Court of General Sessions is the old
est criminal court in America. It is the
court for the trial of felonies. Its judges
nre magistrates, and, with those of the
Supreme Court, 'alone have the power to
admit to bail after indictment (Inter alia).
It follows that the judges of this court ar->
frequently called upon to issue bench war
rants or orders for arrest and to admit to
ball those so infortunate as to be indicted,
thus effecting the speedy arrest of those
charged with crime and e meliorating the
condition of those under arrest and pre
sumably Innocent.
Jn a criminal court the practice of receiv
ing a sealed verdict does not obtain. A
ludce -must be In court to receive a verdict
or to discharge a Jury.
In the long and complicated criminal
trials which often occupy our time it id
to the public interest and economy that the
judge presiding be, waking or sleeping, in
touch with the courthouse and Jury and
District Attorney's office, and how can this
be done if not by telephone?
For upward of ten years now all of your
predecessors have regarded it a pVoper pub
lic convenience and have audited its
charge without question.
His Duty to Keep It, He Says.
When you assumed office it was suggest
ed by well informed friends that I have my
telephone removed, as you contemplated
making a Ftir over the telephone and "joy
wagon 1 ' service maintained at nubile cost,
but it seemed to me that a judicial officer
should be willing to respond to his duty
whenever called, and though I have often
been tempted to order my telephone out I
have never felt It consistent with my duty
to do so.
May I remind you that another Controller
of this city some years ago reached a like
"determination." He. too, declined to audit
a bill— a bill of a former District Attorney
incurred in a vice crusade, a "determina
tion" which regarded the District Attor
ney as without conscience, and measured
judicial methods and Oiscretion by the dol
lars and cents yardstick. This "determina
tion" was promptly abandoned when the
court pointed out both its absurdity and
illegality. See The People ex rel. McLen
nan (Jerome) agt. Grout, 3S >*. Y. Miscel
laneous Reports, 181.
I commend this case, dear Mr. Controller,
to your careful study. From it you may
glean something of value as to the powers
and duties of your office, and especially
that whether a house telephone is a ne
cessity is as a matter of law a question for
the judge or District Attorney to deter
mine, while the moderateness of the charge
therefor alone is to be passed upon by the
Controller.
" 'Tis 6weet to hear the wntchdog*s hon
est bark," and I thank you for your kindly
note of warning (duly heralded in advance
as aforesaid). You may take ray telephone
out or you may leave it. but if the willing
ness of a public servant to respond at any
time, day or night, to a public call to duty
can be even remotely associated with
graft, then I have only to say: "If this be
graft, make the most of it."
MYSTERY IN MAN'S DEATH
Mutilated Body Found on Tracks May
Have Been Placed There.
Rochester, May 15. — The body of Herbert
T. Bennett, of Eagle Harbor, member of a
