MINUTE OF THF MEDICAL COUNCIL

Mr. Epitor,—At a recent meeting of the Medical Council, the s abject matter of the euhjoined resolution engaged ‘ts attention. The Council is desirous of publicly ex- pressing its strongest condemnation of the practice referred to, and has authorized me to respectfully request that you will give earlv publicity to the following Minute of the Council.

Yours truly. Ricnarp Jounson MW. D, Registrar.

Whereas the practice of publishing in the press, (whether with or without the connivance of the medival man) of ¢o called great cures and brilliant operations, has become very common, which practice besides being very diegracetul in iteelf, is dishonorivg to the profession, and by its deceptive character is injurious to the public interests : —Therefore resolved that the Medical Council, on hehalr of the Medica] Society, hereby expresses its strong disapproval of the practice, and benceforth will not consider the physician blameless, unless he can clearly de- monstrate bis pon-complicity in such ad- vertisemeats ; also with a view to the in- tereste of the public, which may be de- ceived and misled by exaggerated and ignorant staternents ; also with a view to the protection of honorable medical men, who may be wrongly accused of com- plicity :—I. is also resolved that the press shal! be respectfully asked to refuse ine seriion in their columns of detailed desrip- tions of and comments upen, medica! and surgical practice, unless such shall be s'gned by the medical men themselves.”

(Note) Itis thought that the assump tion of the authorship by the medical men himself, places the responsibility on the proper shoulders, and leaves him to be deslt with io the asual manner.”

was beld in the r.ception room of the ‘Asylum. it was decided that each wit- | ness called separately, other wil- | | nesses being excluded duriug the time. | Premier Farquharson, Chairman of | the Board of Trustees was present. | Hon. Jas. R. McLean was also present ' for a seort time.

When Dr. MeNeill was giving his evidence Dr.Blanchard was permitted to be present, but was excluded during Mr. McPhaii’s examination.

Mr. Crosskill, Court Stenographer, was appointed Secretary to the com- mission and was sworn. The first wit- ness summoned was Dr. Blanchard who was examiced by Dr. Conroy and tes- tified in substance as follows:

be

He was connected with the institu- tion «as Medical Supt. since 1874. {He was employed as an assistant in

| the Insane Asylum at St. Jobn prior to his present position. In former years when a resident of the Hospital he had the oversight not only of the medical treatment, but of the whole manage- ment of the institution. He did not pur- chase the food. He used to get $1000 with residence ; now, without residence he only gets the $1000. When he left the building the understanding was that he would give as woch time as possible and had the priviledge of en- gaging in private practice at his descre- tion. The ime spent visiting the in- stitution daily was from one and a half hours up tofour or five hours. Some days he could not get there on account of the roads. He did not miss three or four days without providing a substitute. He had not hada leave of absence for four or five years. At the present time there are 194 patients in the institution, out of which 170 would be classed as ircurable,which is p-raap3 too lowa

percentage. Some would say it is greater. On account of the over crowded state of the institution

it is impossible to cla sify ihe 194 patients. There are at least five classes ; Maniacs, mono-maniacs, idiots, epileptics, chronics, etc. He cou-d not say how many epileptics t!ere are in the institution. ‘They should be kept by themselves and idiots by taemselves. There are a large number cf idiots---he eould not tell how many. There are not nearly as many demented people as idiots. He did not notuwce so much general paralysis here as in the other provinces.

The usual percentage of cures else- where which he learaed from reports was 35 to 45 per cent. Our’s last year was 18 percent. Ouraverage of re- covery is really low as compared with Other institutions, but it should be re- membered that these institutious are conducied under entirely different con- ditiens from our’s and where they have better facilities for treatment. The cliss of jatients admitted would be about the same. Both pbysical and mechanical appliances are used for re- straint. Hypnotics are used to produce sleep. The male attendants are en- gaged by Chairman of Trustees; the female are cngaged at the Asylum. The aitendants reported the physical con- dition of the patients to him on his visit. There should bea resident Medical man, in fact two. There should be a physi- cian in the building night and day. The chief female attendant should be a graduated nurse, competent to tike the temperature, give medicine, etc. Occupation does a great deal to aid in acure. Auumber of men are sent to the stock farm, one gang going day about. They work about tbe shoe shop, stable. piggery and grounds. Vege- tables are grown tv a small extent us- der the supervision of attendants. Part of the stock farm should be utilized for the growing of vegetables to be used in the institution. Cattle could be fa'tened and milk furnished. In tbat case the institution would always get good milk. The meat is bought by contract. He was not supposed to see it. The store keeper sees it. He had seen the report in the newspapers with regard to food etc. and there was some truth in it. The meal had soma mouse dirt in it. He had it examined, some of the patients saved tae dirt and
