THE CITJLZEX, FREDERICK, MD., FRIDAY MORNIXG, JUKE 16, 1906.Reply of the Frederick CityHospital Association to Prop-

osition for Arbitration.In reply to the communication

of the Frederick County MedicalSociety, through its Secretary.Dr. Ira J. McCurdy, which ap-peared in our issue of the 2ndiust., iu reference to arbitrationto decide certain matters witha view either of the consolidationof the two hospitals or the clos-ing of one of them, the FrederickCity Hospital Association,through its President aud Sec-retary nas forwarded the follow-ing letter:Dr. Ira J. McCurdy, See’y., etc.

Dear Sir.—Your letter datedMay the 27th was received on theafternoon of the 29th. Waivingthe discourtesy shown by thetransmission of a copy of yourletter to the News prior to yourmailing the original to us, we begleave to make reply as follows:

First—lnasmuch as you haverefused to state with precision theexact questionswhich you proposeto have submitted to arbitratorsfor adjustment, and as we arewholly uninformed aud completelyiu the dark as to what thosequestions are, if in fact there beany at all. we most respectfullydecline to enter blindfolded iutoauy agreement which may involveus in uuforseen entanglements.

Second—We are advised thatwe have no right or authority toturn over to persons in no wayconnected with this corporationthe management of its affairs.I because that management is eutrusted to ns exclusively; andthat we are equally withoutpower to delegate to such personsthe prerogative to determinewhether the hospital shall beclosed. As we have no suchright, authority or power wemust respectfully decline to enterinto an agreement binding our-selves to the things which we arenot legally competent to do.

Third—lnasmuch as you ap-parently aim to secure a consolidatiou of the two associations,and as according to the informa-tion imparted to us, such consolidation would result in our beingobliged to pay the debts due byboth of the constituent corporations, we must respectfully decline to become a party to anyagreement which would or mightinvolve this association in anyobligation to pay any debts whichit did not contract or incur.

[ In closiug permit ns to repeat, what we stated iu a former letter

> that the Frederick City Hospitalwas built to be kept open, and

. not to be closed upon the award, of even disinterested arbitratois;

aud that all physicians of allschools are cordially invited tosend their patients there fortreatment. Patients will receivethe best care aud attention, andphysicians will be afforded pre-cisely the same facilities withoutdistinction or discrimination.
