LOST RELATIVES
RESTORED TO KIN
How Men Who Lose Mem
ories Are Cared For
SOME TYPICAL CASES
Tales of the Work of the Deportation
Bureau of New York State Hos
pital Commission—Save*
State Expense
From the Now York Sun.
Under the title of “The Restorer of
T ost Relatives" and interesting an<^ true
series of narratives could be written of
the work of the deportation bureau of
the state hospital commission were the
officials allowed to make public the de
tails of all their cases.
Year in and year out Dr. George B.
Campbell, medical examiner; Dr. John I.
MeKelway, his first assistant, and Dr.
J. L. Vanderran labor In their headquar
ters on the 14th door of the Metropolitan
Tower and wherever In the state their
duties take them to ascertain the history
of weak minded aliens who have become
state charges. When possible they find
their relatives and restore them to their
families in cases in which the patients
need only care and observation and are
i ot dangerous when at large. Many are
the strange cases they encounter and
dramatic and often sentimental are the
denouements.
For instance, last summer a young man
Picked up by the police In this city,
agacd, half starved, his mind almost a
blank. He was wandering in the streets
with no idea of w'hestce or how he came
here, or where ho wished to go. At Belle*
N where he was sent, he could not
• ven talk coherently.
The deportation bureau was notified
nnd Dr. MeKelway took up the case.
' are and kindness built up the man's
body, hut his mind was slow in recover
ing. and it was not until December that
Hr. MeKelway could get anything from
him to indicate his former home. Tie
then mentioned a small Indiana city. In
quiry there brought out that such a
young man, even then weak minded, had
wandered away from home over two
years before. Ills family had given him
up for lost.
Could they have him back, his mother
asked. They could. Would It be possi
ble to have him home for the family re
union on Christmas day? On Christmas
morning, the young man, much improved
mentally and physically, stepped from
the train to the arms of his mother.
The care of his family will restore him
still further and under their watchful
ness he will have comforts and liberties
the state of New York could not give
him. And the state of New York is re
lieved of the expense of caring for him.
The latter aspect of the matter appeals
to the pocket of the taxpayer as much
ns the other appeals to the sentiment of
the individual. It is estimated that the
bureau 1ms saved the state over $3,000,000
in the last fiscal year.
I lie government medical officers at
Kills Island are supposed to detect and
turn back all alien insane; some cases
set past them. In October more than
SA.flOO aliens landed at Kills Island, an
average of nearly 2600 a day, with the
number on some days running up to 5000.
To examine these for mental defects
Commissioner of Immigration William
Williams has a staff of 21 medical officers
and 030 attendants and nurses, and this
force must also care for all the sick de
tained at the Klis Island hospital, some
times several hundred at one time. It is
obvious that a thorough examination
■annot he made in each case. Congress
itself has recognized this in a law pro
' Wing for the deportation of any who
become Insane within three years of laud
ing.
So thousands of defectives and victims
of incipient insanity are turned loose
Aery year. New York, being the port of
entry, gets the most of them.
The bureau of deportation has an elab
orate system of looking up alien insane
who become state charges. If found
within three years of their landing the
T'nited States government is asked to
take charge of them, provided it can be
shown that tile causes of Insanity existed
before they landed. If this cannot be
shown, then the state is saddled with the
expense of looking after them.
Tf they are not violent, but only inca
pable of looking after themselves, such as
epileptics, for instance, and need only
such supervision as a relative could give,
effort is made to find and communicate
with their families or near relatives,
whether they be In other states or In Eu
rope. If the relatives will have them
they are sent to them at state expense.
In a few days a young man will go
back to Switzerland to his brother, who
will look after him. He was in the Bing
hamton hospital. Dr. McKelway got
from him the names of two sisters in
this country and vague directions of
where they could be found. One was
found in Pennsylvania and one in Jersey
City. The sister in Jersey City was over
at the office the day after she heard from
the bureau. She had lost track of her
brother and was glad to find him again.
She herself could not care for him, and
the brother who had remained at home
in Switzerland was communicated with.
He answered that he would be glad to
have his afflicted brother bank home and
would care for him.
So he goes back at state expense.
But why at state expense?
Because In most cases the demented
person has no money of his own, and
his relatives cannot or will not furnish
the cost of transportation for him. But
it is economy for the state to do so.
The average cost of caring for a patient
each year is $262. The average time a
patient stays in an institution Is 11 years.
That brings the average cost of a patient
to the state, figuring 4 per cent Interest,
up to over $3500. It is calculated that by
paying the expenses of those sent back
to relatives in the last year, both to Eu
rope and to other slates, New York saved
over $3,000,000.
And all~*t a cost of $38,000, including
transportation of those sent away, and
tile expenses of the attendants. About
$10,000 was returned to the state by the
government for those who were properly
federal charges.
In spite of this saving, the cest of the
foreign born insane who were sent to
state Institutions last year will be over
$7,000,000 before the state is through car
ing for them.
Not all are returned at state expense,
nor are relatives always reluctant to re
ceive them.
A well dressed woman was found wan
dering around the Grand Central station,
her mind a blank, her talk Incoherent,
and not a thing to Indicate who she
mlgfit be or from where. Her condition
was such that the authorities had little
ho0e of finding out anything from her.
Four years she stayed In an Institution
without telling anything that would help
In a search for her relatives. Then one
d^y, In one of her more lucid periods,
she mentioned a city near Boston.
The bureau began Inquiries and found
she was the wife of a well to do man
who had spent many dollars and ex
hausted every means he could conceive
of to find his missing wife and had finally
given her up for dead. Would he receive
’ her back and care for her, he was asked?
Would he? A train could not get him to
New York fast enough to bring him to
her that he might care for her and take
her home himself.

M’KINLEY RELIC IS
FOUND IN PAWN SHOP
(Photo by Otto Sarony Co.)
MBS. MABEL McKINXEY BAEB.
Hidden from the gaze of the casual
observer in an out of the way cornet
of the window, among hundreds o 1
pieces of Jewelry, there has been for
the last few weeks a possession of
President McKinley lying In a pawn
shop in Broadway, New York. It is
an invitation extended by California
C'ommandery No. 1, Knights Templar,
to the martyred President requesting
his presence at a “stated assembly” of
the commandery on May 17, 1901, just
four months before he was shot at
Buffalo.
Bince it came into bis possession the
pawnbroker has received offers from
memorial and historical associations for
its purchase. He wants $1,000 for it,
while the highest offer made for'It has
been $900.
five children, were gathered together and
deported to Europe. The father and
mother are demented and the children
are imbeciles. They had not yet become
state charges, but some of them were
sure to land in an institution. The bu
reau found them, gathered them together
and sent them back.
Last year 278 aliens were returned at
the expense of relatives and friends who
could not have been deported under the
federal law*. The state paid the expenses
of 474 more. And in every ease it was
the deportation bureau that found the
homes of these unfortunates and took
charge of their return.
If possible they are allow'ed to go alone.
One man went clear to the Pyrenees. On
the ship.-to France the ship surgeon kept
an eye on him, but from Paris to south
ern France he went all alone. A letter
received a few weeks after he started
announced his safe arrival.
They Saw' Ghosts
From Tit-Bits.
Goethe states that he one clay saw the
exact, counterpart of himself coming to
wards him. Pope saw' an arm apparently
com© through the wall, and made in
quiries after its owner. Byron often re
ceived visits from a spectre, but he knew
it to be a creation of imagination. Dr.
Johnson heard his mother call his name
In a clear voice, though she was at the
time in another city.
Count Emanuel Swredenborg believed
that he had the privilege of interviewing
persons in the spirit world. Loyola, lying
wounded during the siege of Pampeluna,
saw the Virgin, who encouraged him to
prosecute his mission. Sir Joshua Rey
nolds, leaving his house, thought the
lamps w ere trees, and the men and wom
en bushes agitated by the breeze. Oliver
Cromwell, lying sleepless on Ids couch,
saw the curtains open and a gigantic
woman appear, w'ho told him he w'ould
become the greatest man in England. Ben
Johnson spent the watches of the night
an interested spectator of a crowd of Tar
tars, Turks and Roman Catholics, who
rose up and fought round his armchair
till sun rise.
Benvenuto Cellini, Imprisoned at Rome,
resolved to free himself by self-destruc
tion, but was deterred by the apparition
of a woman of wondrous beauty, whose
reproaches turned him from his purpose.
Napoleon once called attention to a bright
star he believed he saw shining in his
room, and said, “It has never deserted
me. I see it on the occasion of every
great event, urging me onw'ard. It is my
unfailing omen of success.”
