CASH PAYMENT DEMANDED Medical Clob Condemns Attitude of Home Ir Fqnl Charges That Bad Management Menaces L-Itc of Charges. I'ontrorsrsy bs-tween Dra. Marl Ei?l and Mary .MacLachlan and Mr. IX C Hani, president of the Baby Home, over aa uontmrd Infant drew the at tention yestrrday of the Portland Msdl- cal Club, which In a slcned resolution Indorsed the attitude of the two phy sicians, la addition to.thl a statement wss mill by Ir. Kqul. In which h ssrerely criticised the methods of Mr. Binu In the management of the Baby Horn. Dra Kqul and MacLaetilan sevjral days as;o endeavored to arrange for the Baby Home to take care of an in tint, whose Identity they declineJ tJ disclose, except to say that It was the child of an ls-year-oM mother. They declare that Mrs. Hums refused to re reive tbe Infant without a formal re l'nqulsament and payment in advance of ili a month for three months for the baby's rare. This attitude. It. Kqul asserts, was not c nan red. al though IT. Kqul offered to obtain the formal rrlla.iulhmrnt of the child, as soon as the mother had recovered suf ficiently to be disturbed. Doctor Charges .Mismanagement. Ir. Equi also charters mismanage ment In the conduct of the Baby Home, declaring that tmlned assistants are not employed: that children suffering with contagious diseases are not segre gated from healthy children, and that the maintenance of the home Is loo costly. It. Equl's statement follows: "In regard to the controversy that arose with Mrs. I. C. Burns, concern ing an infant, which 1 placed In the Baby Home. I wish to state the farts. "There was no question of the moth er's relinquishment of the rhllJ: the child was given to me a few hours after Its birth. -The presldint of the Baby Hjim Insisted that I should see to It that the baby's mother pay to the Baby Home, 1S each month for three months, this to be paid In advance. This I refused to do after consultation with other physicians. She absolutely re fused admittance of the baby unless the money was forthcoming. The ques tion In my mind was that a corpora. Baby Home, receiving state aid. and ttoOO on tag day from Portland peo ple, has no right, through Its president, to Insist that a homeless and friend less woman, with a child which she was unable to care for. should te forced to pay this amount or any other. It Is a question of principle. Oilier Girls Kept In Mind. "It was not for this particular moth er. In my care, that I took this atti tude, but for ether girls who wouli not hare anyone to aid them In a time of need, and would be driven to com mit Infanticide because a corpotate home refuses In do tbe square thing. "Mrs. Burns said In court she wlsbel to make a test case of this. She should feel proud of the result She employed detectives, which was unnecessary and rrueL She knew she could find the mother at any time, for she on the wtnesa stand testified that I offered to take her to the mother's bedside as soon as she was fit to receive visitors which In this case was to be 14 days. "It was not a lecal relinquishment, but It was the and the Inquisi torial relinquishment demanded by Mrs. Burns that I refused to give, aa I do nt violate professional secrets, even if someone attempts to force me to do so. Judce Oatens and Judge Cam eron were aware that there would be a legal relinquishment when the moth er was fit to sign It. and her fitness was left to It. MacLachlan and myself as the physicians In charge of the pa tient. -We Intended turning In the relin quishment on Monday. March 11. of Detectrvev Criticised. "If Mrs. Burns had taken the money she paid the detectives and applied It to remedying the bad conditions which exist In the Baby Home It would be more to her credit. 1 believe the pub lic money could be used to better ad vantage. -I did not care to give to her home, after she started this unequal tight, tbe custody of the child, because I con sidered that the Juvenile Court would "see to It that the child was properly cared for and adopted Into a good fam ily. Furthermore. I did not wish the baby to remain at the home any longer than necessary, for It has a chance to meet death before Summer Is over, due to conditions esistlnr at the home. The matron does her utmost, but she has no trained assistants to help her with the sick babies, and the phyalt-iana on the stair are up against a blank wall whenever- they have tried to remedy conditions. -Today they r-sve four cases of ehl. kenpox. and the sick babies are not segregated from tne well ones; no mat ter what disease breaks out. there is no Isolation ward, so every child has a chance of contracting the malady; they have a large room, which they never use. because Mrs. Burns Informs the doctors that there Is no way of heat Ins It. Trained Help Needed. -What the Baby Home needs Is not more money, but on Its board someone of wide experience who has the inter ests of tbe babies at heart and who does not mouth false sentiment and who shall see to It that a corporate Baby Home shall use the funds ob tained from the state and from private cuiaen to get trained assistants and give the weaklings and the well babies a better chance for their existence, that an Isolation vinl must be built that a hen a nurse handles an Infec tious or contagious case she shall not handle a clean one. "A corporation deriving state aid should have Its books open to state Inspection. Think of It I !. to take care of an average of 40 babies: the babies principal diet Is milk. The ttpkeep of the cows at the home Is ICS a month. Certainly there Is a great deal of expense attached to the home other than this, but still there must be mismanagement somewhere. "I believe If either one of the hos pitals had this home that It would not cost SK.OOS a year to ran It on the : that It Is being run on. or If It did exnend that amount or eves more, at least under Intelligent management, srtla liaised, assistants, proper, food. Isolation wards, etc. they would havs fewer deatha "There Is no chance for the physi cians woh now give their time freely and without recognition to get the re sults that they should. "I ask the public If Mrs. Burns, the president of this home, csn arrogate to herself the right to order a court officer to serve a citation on Sunday on a helpless mother, and contrary to the expressed wishes of the Court.

Kerlprorlty With Canada Finds Fa vor Representatives to State Grange Are Elected. Pomona Grange. In session yesterday In Kventng Star Grange Hall, on the Section Line road, adopted resolutions providing for a chance In the present method of electing representatives to the State Gransre and also indorsed the reciprocity aicreement wlih Canuda- IL A.

It is set forth in the resolutions that the pres ent method of election by convention Is no longer satisfactory.

He said that more than 100 new granges had been Instituted In Washington In one year. Mrs. Eu gene Palmer. Mrs. IL L. Palmer. C. II. Welch and others favored the change and the resolutions were adopted unan imously. In the entire state there are now 1.3 granges, which would make the rep resentatives In the state urange 3, as a man and Ms wife are usually elected. Under the resolutions . the State Grange will pay the mileage and the subordinate granges the Incidental expenses.

BONCI, IN HIS FAMILIAR FIELD, WINS PLAUDITS Master of Bel Canto Proves Himself Finished Artist, With Tew Rivals His Articulation of English Valuable as Lesson to Americans. NOT for many moons will Portland people forget Bond s, beautiful bel canto style ef singing, his erery ready smile, and his shiny whits kid giovea Bond paid his first visit to Portland In concert last night at the Helllg Theater and was greeted by an audi ence that occupied every seat and wss In part the most distinguished society sudlence so far noticed this season. Bond, by actual count, received S2 re calls, and they were hearty one. The concert was under the direction of Lois Steers-WSno Coman. To understand what sort of a dis tinguished artist Alessandro Bond is. one must first d-termlne the exact meaning of the Italian "bel canto" style of singing. An old Italian author ity says: "Pel canto means. literally, beautiful sng.- In one sense. It can be applied to all good singing, but prac tically. It means a tender, pure, sympa thetic legato. Just the opposite of bravura- singing. Bravura' defines the spirit and boldness of execution In singing." That Is why Bond did not thrill us with the dramatic intensity of bis art and that is no doubt why the audience was a trifle composed, but enthsslastlc. until Bond sang the arls "'Che Gel Ida Manlna." from Puccini's "La Boheme." the arts from the third set of Puccini's "The Girl of the Golden West," and "La donna e Mobile" from "Rlgoletto." Then Bonct came into his own. for he wss sing ing in the familiar field of Italian opera. In the excerpt from "La Bolxyne." Bond sang up to high C In altlsslmo and In the excerpt from "Rieoletto" np to B natural above the start. Without doubt Bonci Is a finished artist, one of the foremost In the world. There are so few rivals now to dis pute with him his special field In bel canto. Mario Is dead.

STAY-AT-HOMES COME OUT Outpouring of Citizens Indicates Determination to Destroy Power of Hlnkjdlnk" Increase In "Tough" Wards Is Small. CHICAGO. March 15. (Special.) Al derman Charles E. Merrlam'S' stock as the Republican Mayoralty nominee went skyward today as a result of the record-breaking registration yesterday. In the revision 7S.7J7 names were add ed to the pollbooks. 'smashing all pre vious records. Harold I. Ickes, the Merrlam cam paign manager, gave out a long state ment, declaring that yesterday's show ing presages a sweeping victory for Merrlam. At the Carter H. Harrison headquar ters in the Briggs House it was stated his lieutenants had no comment to make on the registration figures. With the 75.717 names added yester day to the 373.667 that were already on the books, there Is an unrevised total of 419.304. Experts figure the revision process Saturday nltht-probably will cut this down to 415.000 voters who will be eligible to participate In the April 4 eleetion. Old-timers In the game of politics were ready to admit that the big out pouring of the voters was a surprise and declare with the .Merrlam managers that the "stay-at-home" men were In the crowds that flocked to the polling nlaces. The "stay-at-home" voters are classed in the Merrlam column. Mr. Ickes can see only one thing and that is a determination on the part of the people to defeat the triology of "Harrison, Hlnky-dlnk and Hearst. When the Indications are that every free citizen In Chicago Is hastening to get into the Merrlam bandwagon and overthrow the combination or Harri son and Hearst and "Hlnky-dlnk" once and for all. there will be a sweeping landslide victory next election day. What gains there were In the lodging house wards that might be Interpreted to be favorable to Harrison were slight, and In ths First Ward an actual falling off of ths number of votes seems to bs shown.

REDMONDS SEND GIFTS Mr. and Mrs. J. Hennessv Murphy Receive Shamrocks From Ireland. Bits of shamrock, still green, with the fresh smell of the heath, gathered from the hills of Ireland, were received yesterday by J. Hennessy Murphy In two neat little boxes, with the signature of the Irish leader. John Redmond. London, upon each box. Mr. and Mrs. Red mond. In sending this token Just be fore St. Patrick's day, desired to ex press gratitude to Mr. Murphy for his many acts of klndnesa when In charge of the Itinerary of the Irish parlia mentary leaders In the Paciflo North west. Cine of the boxes was from Mrs. Red mond for Mrs. Murphy, and one was from Mr. Redmond for Mr. Murphy. flawless, that In singing a succession of notes above the staff his face does not turn red with physical exertion, a condition which has been noticed In other high tenors on tour. For Im peccable purity. Bond's voice Is better in the lower and especially In ths mid dle register. In the upper register It Is tuneful, but "breathy," and the tone lacks clarity. Bond has beautiful art, tho most consummate mastery in ex pression, his use of the crescendo snd diminuendo Is splendid and his finish Is magnificent. So particular Is he to bring his selection to, say, a shaded finish, that he drops to a delicate whis per that Just approaches the falsetto which he says be does not use. Let eminent musical savsnts settle It. Doc tors disagree and their mistakes are burled. Musicians have the aaroe right to differ. It was a treat to hear Bonci sing In English. His articulation of the Ave soniss he gave, with English words, was marked by clear distinctness. Every word was like a pearL His Eng lish pronunciation and the care Bonci takes to make himself heard should be a valued lesson to all American singers. Bond's rendition, for In stance, of Schubert's, "Who Is Sylvia?" suffers because of the memories other eminent singers have given us of It. Ellen Beach Yaw's rendition brings tears to the eyes and tender Joy to the heart, but. odd to say. when she sings, her audiences may be counted on one's flnKars. When Bonci sings crowds at tend, and they bow In adoration of his art. Bond's charming singing, his power to attract and the musical memories he leaves will be much-discussed topics of conversation here for weeks to come. Harold Osborne Smith was the piano accompanist and he played with line skill.
