/MEDICAL SOCIETY Or THE STATE OF
PENNSYLVANIA.
Third Day.
The Society met at 10 A. M., and was
called to order by the President.
Dr. James S. Carpenter, of the Schuylkill
County Medical Bociety, rose to a personal
explanation in regard to a passage in the
*Philadelphia Inquirer, stating that th records
of the Schuylkill Society had been tampered
with. He was ruled out of order by the Chair
man.
The unfinished business, being the conside
ration of Dr. Atlee's resolutions en the sub
ject of the Woman's Medical College, was
then taken up,
Dr. Hiranr.Nye offered the following pre
amble and resolution:
Whereas, The question of admitting women to mem
bership lath's Society, with all its resulting privileges
on the standard of equality, continues to be a source of
fruitless discnssion,without a hope of arriving at an ad
justment satisfactory to all ; therefore,
Resolved, That everything pertaining to the vexed
question be stricken from the entire transactions of the
btate Medical Society, and that the resolution before the
Society b id on the table. •
By cow resolution was withdrawn.
Dr. Joseph arrish, of the Sanatarium, of
• fered the following substitute for Dr. Atlee's
_preamble : and resoluticin :
.•
Whereas ; The College cirPhySiCiane - of Philadelphia
land the American Medical Association acknowledge a
common code of ethics as the standard of intercourse be
-1-Ween members of the,medical profession and • the. com
munity:and, whereas, Raid - code is generally received as
the sugicient rule of professismill conduct by most of the
county societies of this State, as well as by the profes
sion at large ;therefore,
Beso/Ded, That all action ef, this Society which has im•
posed upon Its members restrictions that aro not re•
glared by the common code, which is acknowle iged by
the entire medical profession of this continent, is, in our
opinion, unwise and unnecessary, and all such action is
- bereby-renealed.
Dr. cummiskey moved to lay Dr. Parrish's
substitute on the table. Lost.
The question being taken on Dr. Parrish's
substitute, it was carried by 44 to 42.
Dr. Maybury and Dr. Nebinger called for
the yeas and nays on the question, which, Asp
- being called. resulted as folloWs—ayes,
nava, 53. So the substitute was agreed to:
Atlee's resolution consequently falls,
and Dr. Parrish's substitute, as above, remains
before the meeting.
Dr. Whiteman - offered the following amend
ment:
- litsoited, That the resolution of Dr. Parrish for that
of Dr. Atlee be referred to the several o..unty Societies,
with instructions to report thereon at the next meeting
of the Society.
Dr. Hiram Corson appealed to the oppo
nents of the medical education of women not
to evade this question for another year by re
ferring the matter back to the county So
cieties.
Dr. Parrish thought that the animus of the
amendment was to give more time for the con
sideration -of a question we have been con,
sidering for six br seven years. If we stave
this thing 01 - Inow vie - are a - cowardly set. Let
us decide this question now without further
evasion.
The amendment was loSt. The question
again recurred on Dr. Parrish's substitute.
Professor Gross understood the question now
- 13eforel - he. - : - houseTas - .:beingi: essentially,--Shall
women be admitted to the floor of this house,
and shall we meet them in consultation? This
question - has come up now eyery year "for the
last eleven years, like an intermittent
feverwith an annual relapse, and it seems as
though it would be wise to administer qui
nine or arsenic, or — some - medicine of that I
character. Mr. President, 1 am not quite '
sure where I am ; I am not sure whether I am
a man or woman; I am asked to approve the
admission here ot women doctors. I should not
be surprised to see before long men in petti
coats and women Tn Pantaloons, and how
_does this_ come about? It is brought about by
politicians find Stron- women, the so
rosis, the sisterhood, which is striving to force
itself into the place of the male, and what is
the, effect of all this? Demoralization
and the overturn of religion, and mos
rality. Who made woman and how
WAS she made? The Almighty took
her from Adam's side, one of _his
ribs, intended to lean upon him forever, and I
worship woman, pure and undefiled, as I
worship Deity; but when she IfYytis heir
sphere—when she falls from the high po
sition that God placed her in—l weep
for her. And now, as to this Woman's
College, what is it? Aro their teachers all
women? No, many of thorn are men for
whom I have a high respect as gentlemen,
but whom I sincerely pity for the position
,y lsafo taken T have not the slighest ob
jecuon to woman studying medicine, hut it I
had my own way I would confine her to the
practice of midwifery and the diseases of
women, for which she is eminently qualified.
But has sheintellect enough to dive into the
mysteries of the practice of medicine, to fill
all the requirements of a general practitioner?
No! Every experience answers no! But if
she wishes to practice medicine let her ; and
let gentlemen, if they desire, meet her in con
sultation, but et them live up to the ethics of
the societies to which they belong and to
which they owe allegiance. Let us look at the
list of consulting physicians of the Woman's
College—Drs. Hartshorne, Stine, Morton and
Wier Mitchell—so the question of consulting
with women doctors is settled in Pinta
delOhia. Now let us look at the
moral aspect of this atlhir. These gentlemen
are members of a local Society in which they
are forbidden to consult with these women,
and yet they have not the self-respect to with
draw from the Society, and it would seem as
though the Society had not moral courage to
expel them. But is this the fact, or is it that
these gentlemen want to be made mar
tyrs. and we of the Society do not
chose to invest them with the odor of
the sanctity of martyrdom? We do not choose
to make martyrs of them.
I have not the slightest objection, Mr. Presi
dent, to consult with women, provided that
they aro qualified and have a certain amount
of prestige. Now, this Medical College of
Women has been betbre the community fot
a few years only, and has acquired no
prestige. And yet we are asked to receive
them on this floor, and acknowledge them
as equals; would it not he more modest in them
to wait for a little while. These women are
doing now what they cannot do with pro
priety. I had the pleasure of conversing with
my distinguished friend, the Professor of
Anatomy in the Jefferson College, who told
me that when he was in Paris he asked one
of the greatest surgeons of the metropolis ot
the world what was the status of the female
practitioners there, and lie replied that they
were abortionists. 1 do not mean to suggest
anything of the kind in regard to the women doctors in
this country. I was present last winter ut a clinic alter,
the operation of amputation of the hip-joint was per
burned ; there were present 400 men, and among them
young woman. New what brought these women theref
An itching, prurient curiosity. On another occasion .1
saw a man, stark nuked and covered with disgusting
sores. brought in before a mixed clinic. Now, Mr. Pro
sirlenr, would you allow year wife to be present at thh
clinic, or would you allow her to employ one of these
women as a doctor in her family?
Now. Mr. President, I appeal to iliegentlemen present.
many of WIIOIII are my pupils, whether I have over beet,
opposed to progress. Now, Mr. President, this is an ag,
et progress, but a locomotive is in progress when it runs
off the track. And so it is with the progress of Soroste.
It is subversive of virtue and 'literality.
And now, Mr. President, leL run nay something of the
colored man. I love the colored man. I have lived with one
for the last thirty years. I sympathized with him tv hen
be wan hound and manacled In slavery ; but lot me say
that once for all that I have seen notch of the instlt u
lion of slavery., and I have found it to be
generally - eery patriarchal and. gentle to
• antigro, andilia case's of
Mite cruelty very rare, But now the negro is
studying medicine, and wo must go down to meet him.
Now, what prestige has the colored man to entitle hint
. to admission to this Society more titan the white w 0
man. Now has be any prestige to entitle hint to press
his claims? 888 he over Contributed a pup to medical
literature? No and as long as 1 live I will oppose the
- aims of politicians in forcing theme people upon us.
Dr. Bradley, of Columbia co.,
called Dr. Grits,, to
order. claiming that the negro iitiontion had nO.lllllll
do with the matter under discussion, and that as Little
was important and that .many members minted •to go
borne, he ins sted on speakers confining themselves ut
the question before the mooting.
Dr. Cross answered that he was sorry gentlemen
wished to leave, but he would place i n , ° wi n o, i n (1 , 4 ,
way. h
lir.liradley answered that he was aware that the Phil
adelphia doctors wanted the country ones to ru haute,
.., but t hat they wouldn't go until this rw-tter wits ended.
Dr. John Atlee, of L mobster said that r.,6, ha
eof the mak. I agree with him in aim ,st
all hie Statements about woman. • But the question now
ens* ue to•the Mending of women, but shall we al.ow t I
the graduates of this one College the same rihts
that we do to graduntes of others. Are pity - .
•ichuis of Philadelphia ; afraid that the
women doctors will take all the p-actice out of their
betide. I think there is not Much danger. I wain to
ring them within the code of Ethice, and if they do
roug I want to punted' them. Dr. Gross replied' to
same of Pr . Atte° sremarke. In the course of his speech,
he alluded to the public sentmient on the question, and
claimed that the result of the agitation on the subject
eLmixed clinicsimtheTennsylvania Hospital last win
•er showed.that the public feeling was against Mixed
clinics. .•
. Dr. Bell characterized • Dr. Parrish's resolution as a
dodge. He did not think that Dr. Attest understood the
question at all; -
Professor Trate Creech - of Efueton, thought that as Dr,
Grose did not know whether he was a man or a woman,
that ho could not be expected to know much about th •
question. Ladies have distinguished themselves as doc
tors for Tenni past. In the Italian schools ladies have
held chairs of anatomy many times. The agitation is
nut an outgrowth Cl Sorosis. It is Meier than
Serosis. It is older than our Society. Dr.
Gross ha s spoken of the consulting physiciane of the
Womeu is College as violating law. Whenever a law be-
comes oppreseiv a and wrong it should not be obeyed.
Why, Mr. President, it is not many 'sears since the State
of Pennsylvania passed a law forbidding the circulation
of small notes. and yet not a gentleman here but has
violated that law. Now you ask, why don't they resign ?
Why don't you enforce your law? You dare not do it.
I challenge this Society to dare to enforce this most un
just and oppressive law, and expel these members.
Dr..Nebinger, of Philadelphia, said thegeutlemen,who
year after year have Veen fighting for these women'e
colleges lucre, year after year are fightiug their battle on
the wrovg ground; they should go before the American
Medical Association and fight their battle. They have
tried thie-andthey-havetalled to establishthe. fact Mint_
t his Women's Medical College is a regular
college. As soon as you cure this ac
knowledgment from .that nseociatie you need do
nothing more, for you will then be entit to have it
represented here. lam astonished, Mr. estilent, to
see gentlemen of respectability, aud religious men,
stand up here and allude to the code of ethics which
they have declared before man and Heaven they would
observe, and utter these words, " When I want to du
something I will do it if I choose, whether you let
ins or not." It pains me to the heart.
Dr. Parrish interrupted, and repeated the words of his
speech of yesterday, which wero alluded to.
Dr. Nebunger continued. Are ou atraid to carry
your case before the American Medical Association?
Go tbere,gentlemen,and prove that yoUr college is quail
tied for admission there, and you will have no further
trouble here. Your pr ofessors and your Alumni will be
admitted to consultation and to this floor without
furthertrouble..Mr.„Presidene,you will remember that
the Philedelphia County ;Medical - SebTeW - Viltic - ilin - triel'
here yesterday. I consider it'll great honor that I belong
to this bociely ; and I confdder it one of the beet Guinea
that Society ever did that it called attention. to • that—
then—foul thing : the" Woinau's Medical College." We,
of the Philadelphia County Medical Society, have been
the very beet friends of this Womeff's College It is a
moral axiom, not to be denied, oven by "higher law" in
divldunts, that they who point out to us our
faults are our friends, and when the Society pointed out
to this college its great wrongs, and thus led to its
im
provement, that it was its friend, You hive heard it
mom one _of the professed friends of that college that
one of its profeseors wasa hoinamplith in fall feather and
another aack nestroin vender. Coud the Society 'do
other thanq u
make the expose. and should l they now be
abused for so doing a Are they not.—rather en
titled to-.the parsage of a resolution of thanks
et yourdrands. Dlr. President, there has not been a
singleargnment offered here yesterday ,or to day, which
hits-norbeen offered before, when the hoireeopeth and
•he quack nostrum Vender held their profeSeeralites.'L If
weenie are to be educated sad made doctors of, am
one, sir, who is disposed to o ff er them every facility.
So early as last Fall, ; when the. question of
mixed clinics at ~ thb pen nsylvaela lios
pita, was agitating the public,l prepared
and had published a paper on the subject, in which I
stated that I was disposed to give the women every fair
opportunity to'atudy, but that their clinical instruction
should lie separate from that !of the males. Judging tile
future by the past, seeing that that College lute been com
ing se steadily up from the filth and mire of [the past, if
that is caused by the action of the Society, I am in
favor of the Society requiring that their progress shall
stall-be onward, until they shall rise to the standard re
quired by the great arbiter of this whole question. Are
you afraid to bring this question before them? i Voices
—No, no : we did go there.)
Yes, and there you were defeated two-years ago.- Mr,
President, these gentlemen do shrink from taking their
cane before that Supreme Court of the medical prefes-
Sonic, little argument hues beenbased ou time fact that
one of those higher-law gentleman has been elected Pre
ithlent of the American Medical_Associal ion . But what
vroof is that of the prepriety - or the position which these
gentlemen endeavor to maintain? That gent!sfunan de-
Oared that he would stand by, and not viol the laws
of the County 'Medical Society. That gentle an held a
high position in the Society: As President of he Society
he administered the same declaration to many new - mem
bers,and permit mete say that he would not hevedared to
:admit them to memberships cknowledging the propriety
14 the - step__ „This,__Mr....President, is the gentleman
who has been cited to prove -that the So
ciety is wrong in this matter. I suppose that. the American
Medical Association, when they elected this gentleman
their President, they did not examine his record closely
onongh, or they would not have chosen him to that po
sition. Another gentleman Wes elected .0 a position
in this irregular college, and like au honorable man and
is gentleman, be resigned hismenniership lOU Sticiliry.
I allude to Dr. Hartshorne.-es itch pictitre. do.you
best? -Dr. Nebinger, in conclusion, moved to lay the
, nbstitute on the table until the American Medical
Association has acted on it.
Dre.Corson and Parrish called for the yeas and nays on
Ihn question to lay on the table.
The yeas and nays were taken, and resulted as follows:
Ayes"..63 ; noes, sa: --
So Dr. Parrish's substitute was laid on the table.
The Society then adjourned until I P. M.

- .
. . •I.IIIS LAIZARETTO'STICKM Tfki:—lt, Was Stated
in the BULLETIN- of yesterday: that the
tug for the use of the Lazaretto Physician hail
commenced operations. .This tug will be ei
great advantage to our commercial interests.'
Since Philadelphia was created a port of entry,
and up to the present time, the primitive mode
of visiting vessels has been continued ,ai
the Lazaretto by a six-oared barge
and the visiting ground being spin' ,
- t - Wci:andza;Lhalf — iniles --- from -
proper, great delay was experienced in reach
! ing it, the time consumed being from au hour
I to an hour and a half, when the wind and tide
were adVerse or against the - boats. During the
delay thus caused, a number of vessels would
accumulate (by coming to anchor and await
ing their turn), and before the physician would
get-through his visits, a loss of a tide would
occur, and the loss of a tide is, equivalent to
the loss of a day to the commercial - commu
nity. To prevent this delay, and letting
. go
and heaving up anchor (an operation causing
much time and labor), the Board of Health
applied to Councils about two years ago for
an appropriation for the purchase and main
tainauce of a steam tug, and only succeeded in
obtaining it in the appropriations for 1870..
The tug was ordered about seventy clays ago,
and was built by A. L.; Archambault within
the contract time. Her trial trip was
_v.eryzsuccessful,-thortm_from_PhiladelphM to
the Lazaretto (14 miles) having been made in
one hour and twenty minutes, with only about
a half head of steam. When hBr machinery
works more smoothly it is expected that she
will make 12 knots per hour.
By the aid of this tug much time and trouble
will be avoided, as vessels will be boarded in
the neighborhood of Cdester while under
way, and will not be required to come to
anchor, as.beretefore. With a steam tug as
much service eau'. be performed in fifteen
minutes as previotisly required an hour. All
of the large cities have bad such togs, in use
for years, and Philadelphia should have had
one long before this. At the close of the
-- ififarantine . season - the tug - will-be--brought—to
the city, and will be Used by the 'Port 'Physi
cians in visiting vessels arriving in port.
