MR. SHOTTEN HAS
SOME NEW CHARGES
They Arc Directed Against Dr. M. J.
Williams, Out'Door Physician.
WERE REFERRED TO A COMMITTEE
Tho Chnrecs Wcro In Writing nnd
tho llcnillng of Them Caused n
Spirited Dolmtc Hctweon Directors
Shottcn nnd l'nlnc--Nunilor of A
pl'icntions for Itullof Wore Mndn to
H10 IImril--Coniprcssor Will Ho
Stnrtcd on Monday.
The mectlnn of tha ioor board yes
terday afternoon had certain excitable
features. Foremost and warmer than
the rest wan an outburst by Director
Thomas Shottcn, of the North End,
against Dr. M. J. Williams, who is
the out door physician for the Hyde
Park and Providence districts.
Tho trouble lias struck fire at never
nl previous meetings, Mr. Shotten pre
senting charges of neglect against Dr.
Williams. Director Paine of tho
West Side, Is Dr. Williams' champion.
Yesterduy the meeting was a very
long one. An unusual number of ap
plications had been listened to with
out any filctton on the part of the
directors. Pieseiit were: President
Langstnff, nnd Directors Brooks, Mur
phy, Fuller, Shotten, Polne and Secre
tary Lynett. The applications had
been disposed of, reports had been
read nnd received when Director Shot
ten arose from his seat and in a
tjuleti way asked that an out-door
physician be granted to his section, the
North End. He wanted the West Side
district divided. Tho office of the pres
ent and solo physician, Dr. Williams,
Is, said Director Shotten, too far away
for the convenience of the North End
patients.
Then Director Shotten resumed his
seat.
DR. PAINE OBJECTED.
Director Paine slowly and as If col
lecting his thoughts, arose und in a
persuasive way expressed his opinion
that a chnnEO could not be made nt
this time tho board would have to
wait until January 1. Director Shot
ten did not see why this delay. Had
not Dr. Williams taken the position
one year ago? Ho thought the change
could lie made now just as well as on
January 1, 19S. Director Paine could
not be convinced and persisted on a
postponement of a division of the dis
trict. Director Shotten arose and told the
board how difficult It Is to have com
munication with Dr. Williams.
"He has a telephone," interrupted
Director Paine.
"Yes," retorted Director Shotlon;
"but Its an old machine and Is not on
the metallic circuit. Ypu can't under
stand what is said. When you talk
to Dr. Williams over the telephone all
he says back Is 'what's that?' 'what's
that?' "
Director Paine Insisted on this point
that the now physician could not be
appointed at this time. This persistency
llnally brought Director Shotten to his
feet and placing his hand on his coat
Inside pocket he drew forth a paper.
Then, walking over to Secretary Ly
nett, his voice shaklnc from excite
ment, he exclaimed:
"Mr. Secretary, I want you to read
this?"
READING THE CHARGES.
Secretary Lynett began to read. The
paper contained a prepared statement
written by Director Shotten setting
forth his grievances. Director Shot
ten first showed the necessity of an
out door physician In his district. He
stated that the North End section was
as much entitled to the services of a
physician as the Hyde Park end. He de
signated the lack of attention as an
inhumanity. The statement grew
gradually In fierceness, names of neg
lected patients were cited and one of
these, Henry Gave, of the North End,
was quoted, by Dr. Shotten to say
among other things that when Dr. Wil
liams called at the house where Gave
boards to attend a patient "his (Dr.
Williams') actions were ungentleman-ly-"
At this point Director Paine sprang
from his seat.
"This is going too far!" he cried. At
the same time President Langstaff wa3
saying something to the same effect.
Dr. Paine continued: "The board has
decided upon a rule whereby such
cases as this will be heard.
Ho referred to the recent'.;
rule of the board to receive all charges
against its officers by committee ap
pointed for the purpose.
"I know," said Director Shotten aris
ing to his feet; "Dr. PaJne has intro
duced a rule making such matters 'star
chamber!' "
There was strong objection to this
expression by President Langstaff and
Director Paine. Continuing Director
Shotten was saylns that "this matter
has been before the board before."
TOO MUCH OF IT.
"Yes," Interrupted President Lang
staff; "It has been before the board too
rnuch."
For the time this ended tho rumpus.
Directors Fuller, Brooks and Murphy
sat through It all as spectators only.
After the transaction of minor busi
ness Mr. Shotten, who had re-taken
his statement from the secretary's
hands and consulted for a few min
utes with Director Brooks, arose and
requested that the president appoint a
committee of four to act upon the com
munication. President Langstaff compiled, nam
ing Directors Brooks, Murphy and Ful
ler. This committee will report at the
next meetlntr of the board.
A short session was held after the ad
journment of tho board but the de
cision, If any was made, was letalned
from the press. The letter which Di
rector Shottcn submitted was also
withheld. .
The business transacted by the board
was of great extent. Nearly a score of
personal applications were disposed of,
Ellen Puggan, of Cedar avenue, had
her portion discontinued by Director
Terppe because he had been Informed
she sold liquor. She said the report
was scandalous, untrue. The case was
laid over. The wife of Andrew Pol
ya, tho man convicted of murder and
sent to the penitentiary, applied for
aid. She has two small children. The
board allowed her $6 per month.
Director Brooks reported that the
compressed air pump at the Home will
be started Monday. The report of
Superintendent Beemer showed that
there are at present at the Homo S80
persona. Dra. Qunster and Bernstein
read their reports.
