REPORT OF THE MANAGERS.

To the Hon. ROBERT A. CAN WYCK, oIZa}'or of .1"u, l ork Ci: v SIR-The Board of Managers of the Brooklcn Disciplinary Training School for Boys reopect-

fully present herewith the report of the Superintendent for the year encliug November I, 1900, and submit the same as their rep,rt for that period.

The Board has expended every effort during the year to perfect the general methods of the School, and especially to gain from the City authorities those additions to our plant in the way of buildings that are imperatively necessary for the itille•t success of the work. Iu the conduct of the School the results accomplished have been most gratifying. In the matter of buildings the results of our labors have been quite the contrary. Under the intelligent management of the Superin-tenden: the internal affairs of the institution have shown healthy progress. The discipline has been good and judiciously maintained. The educational and moral advancement of the boys has been excellent. The work in the shops has been of large practical use. The improvement which is being wrought in the lives of the boys committed to our care is plainly apparent, even to the most casual observer. Apart from the buildings we should be proud to challenge comparison with any other institution engaged in similar work in the country. The Board of Managers could have no more complete vindication of their repeated prayers to the authorities for assistance in thi; respect than the outbreak of typhoid fever last October, which was attributed by the Bard of Health to the general unsanitary condition of the plumbing and premises.

The work of the School is of priceless good. Excellent re>ults have alreldy been accom-plished, in spite of setbacks and disadvantages ; and the results and the methods u;ed in securing them have been commended by two grand juries and the best known authorities on charitable work in Greater New York.

Early in October another serious setback in the progress of the School occurred in the out-break of typhoid fever, which resulted In the closing (,1 the institution by the Board of Health and neces-itated the removal once more of the boy, to the New York Catholic Protectory, in The Bronx, as was the case after the fire in Marsh, 1899. One boy died-the first death that hasoccurred in the history f the School. Credit is due to the vigilance of the School management at the time of the typhoid epidemic in gaining immediate control of the disease, which otherwise might have assumed even a more serious aspect because of the conditions prevailing. Two trained nurses and the house physician were in constant attendance on the patients.

The Board is glad to acknowledge the special appropriation of S30,000 that has been granted by the City for the repairs and alterations so much needed. This will make possible the speedy return of our boys to their own institution.

REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT.

To the Board of ,llanag'ers of the Brooklyn Disciplinary Training School far Boys.' GENTLEMEN-I tteresvlth submit my report as Superintendent for the year ending November

I, 1900.

The progress of the School during the past twelve months has been marked. The moral, mental and physical development of the boys was never so pronounced. The results attained vindicate the wisdom of those who created the School, and afford ample reason for congratulation to those intrusted with its management.

The presentment of a Grand Jury, acting while lion. Foster L. Backus was District Attorney, in setting forth the needs for such an institution as ours, states in part, (' In the opinion of the Grand Jury those children who are either without parents, or who have parents not qualified to discipline them, are the children of the State, and money expended for their discipline and educa-tion we regard as money well expended ; and we believe it to be the duty of the City to make provision tot such discipline, training, and support." The Brooklyn Disciplinary Training School for Boys was established by act of the Legislature, under chapter 235 of the Laws of 1896, to weet such needs. The children are the w•ardsof the City in a twofold sense. They are not only dependents, but delinquents, and they require not merely the material assistance which is supplied by orphan asylums and kindred institutions, but, in addition, the moraldisciphne and training that will eradicate evil tendencies and develop in their stead those that are good. To accomplish this end we are devoting our best efforts, and the results already secured amply justify the outlay of labor and expense.

When a boy enters the institution the faults of his past are wiped out, and he begins anew to make a record for himself. No reference is made to his former misdeeds. It is taken for granted that lie wants to be a gentleman, and he is treated accordingly. He is trusted as far as prudence will permit. Responslbiliiies are put upon him. He is taught to feel that he is one of the integral parts composing the School, and in so far as he performs his duties properly, to the same degree is his personal comfort and standing assured as well as the reputation of the place. His individu-ality is developed. He is trained in self mastery and self-respect, and learns to understand and appreciate the advantages of a manly, upright life.

A prominent feature of the means employed to accomplish this end is the military training. The School is divided according to size into four companies. The officers are boys appointed for good conduct and general fitness. They not only have supervision over the companies while in ranks, but to them is intrusted a share in the order and discipline of the place at all times. At the regular officers' meetings, held twice a week under the guidance of one of the instructors, questions of military discipline, promotion and punishments are discussed, as well as the general conduct of the School as a whole. The decisions arrived at by them are subject to the approval of the Super-intendent. It is interesting to note that punishments meted out by these boy officers for violation of the military code are invariably so severe as to require modificalton. The conduct of the boys has never before been so good, and the extreme cases when resort to corporal punishment was necessary have been rare. Our strongest champions are the boys themselves and their parents and guardians.

A system of debits and credits is in use. For all work well done credits are bestowed and recorded in a book kept for that purpose. IIr the same book demerits are charged. The net result shows the scholar's standing for deportment. The common punishment for misdeeds is to deprive

the oflcnder of hi.; play time. Ile is teiluired to stand in ranks during his recreation period, for a length ul time ileieiidiicg on Ihr natw'e and gi avlly of (he ollense.

The day begins and end, wi',h the sound of the bugle. To dive to each Loy a, nine h tinsieuW-ticn as possible in both school and shop the work of the day is divided Into two parts. Unc-half of the boy's are at school in the uwrninc, and the outer half are at work. In the afternoon the con-chums are reversed : tho-c• w%Iw were at work in the morning being at school, and those cvlto were at school I icing at wc,rk. The schedule of daily exercises is as follow, : The boy.; rise at 6 o'clock, make up their huts, tire,:, wash, and I, lac ken their shoes. Inspection follows at 6.30.

Breakfast at 7. At 7.,;o, it lecture is Liven by the Superintendent on the ctnrent ncws of the clay. At 7.45, music. At 8.15, recit:ttwns and shop work Begin. At to, there is an otter-mission of fifteen minutes for the boys at school. At I t.15, the school is disnti,sell. At 11.45, midday inspection.

Dinner at 12. Al 12.45, military drill and calisthenics. At I.3o, recitations and shop work begin and continue until 4.30. At 5.45, even iii ci inspection.

Supper at 6. At 7, the preparation of les-tins for the next clay is begun, amt is conducted until 8.30. At 9, taps are soot ded, and all the Lays are required to he in bed.

Systematic iii tiuucti~ru is given daily, morr:ing and afternoon, in the common English branches. \V lie n our buys enter tic • school, in no way do they more clearly show the neglect from which they have suffered than in their backward mental dcvelupntcnt. They are far I chi nil the average attaintue its of boys of their years, and in many cases are unable to real or tt ritO'. Experience proves in the main that the fault is not theirs, and is not clue to lack of ability'. Their powers have never been cultivated. Under the influence of careful, intelligent exercise clay liy day, in the school roam anti in the shop, their muds soon respond, and the boys show good progress. `I'hc, rough Hess is insisted upon. Instruction is given in arithmetic, English, geographv, history, writing, spelling, thawing, shorthand and typewriting.

Recitations are marked and graded, and the class record of each boy is preserved. The following is a schedule of recitations for the past session :

In addition to the common English branch' s, ci iily instruction is given in stenography and typewriting to three classes. several of the boys have gained such pr(cficiency in these studies ai t., be of practical as-i,tance in the ollice work of the institution. Music, vocal and instrwmntal, and di tics tng form a part of each clay's school routine.

,k helplul adjunct to the educ.iticn of the boys is an informal newspaper talk by the Superli-tendent every morning at hall -past seven in the large study Is all. The occnwence,of the piecudiiI day in the life of the institution are alto discu,sed. This has the effect of arousing in the Mind of the boy an intelligent personal interest to his own welfare and through hint in the welfare of the School. Ile learns to regard the institution not as a place of detention designed for his punishuteut, but rather as a house and school where his well being, physical, mental and moral, is of first imp ortance.

During, the past year we have inaugurated a banking system by which the bays are given their first kncwled e in hu-ines inethock. All nione's received by them from relative, and frieucl; are deposited with the Superintenccm. Deposit slip. acid blank clieck,, printed in the School printutg office, are employed iu thee trap-actions. Cie boys learn by actual experience not only the rue lt-use''Its of commercial IauIcing, but the value of motley as well, and are thereby encouraged in cc' momy. B, cys hewing account, are required to pay from then( for any c.urc'lcss or willful destruction of School property for which they are responsible. Those having no deposit, may earn and sell the School's "credit," uu,l li,luidate such incel,tedness. A credit is bestowed for Iahor of an hour and a half out of scho4,1 time. 'rile monetary value of a credit among the boys varies from one to three cents according to the supply and demand. These transfers from one boy to another are utade by means of checks as in the money transactions.

'I' he religismr i hut eact ion I the boys i.s attended to carefully. It has been possible for the Protestant boy, in plca-aut weather to attend service on Sunday morning in the nearby churches. In inclement cc eat her service is held at the school. Owing to the location of the institution it is necessary to hold Catholic and Jc•twish services in our own chapel. In this connection ate are glad to acl:noccledge the faithh11 service rendered by the Fathers attached to the Church of St. Frances tie ChanIal, in I;lythebourn•, and of the Rabbi, [h. Adolph Raclin, of New York.

During the past %car the shop; have I cen running under full force. Instruction has been given daily, morning and afteruuon, in printing, tailoring, shoemaking, knitting, carpentering wood Lumina, scroll-saxbug, carving, ironwork, painting and glazing, tin sun iCuing, boiler and electric engineering. 'l'he buys manufacture every article of clothing they wear—shoes, stockings, drawers, uocler-hirls, shirts, sweaters, n iii fr.rmS and caps.

Since nn, la•t report the shoe-shop and the wood-turning shop have been equipped with shafting, pulleys, etc., and a mater connected with the dynamo has been placed in each shop to supply driving power for the machines. These additions have materially increased the Output and improved the quality of the cork clone.

In a room in the basement of the stain building, where a baker's oven has been con,tructed, a dough mixer was installed, and pr,,perly connected by shafting and pulleys with an electric motor for the purpose of training the boys as bakers and satisfying the needs of the School in this direction. Our baker Supplies we have been obliged to buy in the open market. We have not been able to use this plant for the lack of necessary alterations to the room which we have repeatedly request. -d of the authorities having jurisdiction over our buildings, the Department of Public liuildin,,s, Lighting and Supplies.

In addition to the ccurk in the shops the boys are employed in the ]louse, kitchen, laundry and sewing-room, and during the u'untuter months squads are kept busy at kitchen and landscape gardening. The entire care of the vegetable garden and lawns is given over to the boys, under proper supervision.

It is impo-sihle to estimate the worth to the boys of the training they receive in the shops. As a feature of their eitucacion, considered in its large sense, the work of the shop is of gre (ter value than that of the school n ,om. It develops both head and haul, furnishes interesting employment, cultivates industry, and supplies the mean, for self-support and usetulres-. It is t, be regretted that our accomnludati.ns in the way of buildings are so poor and inadequate that we are hatnperc•d on every side in the development of this work. The tin strop is in a corner of the garret of a frame building nearly a hundred years old ; the shoe shop is in the basement of the saute building, where the space under a porch has been inclosed for the purpose and daylight can scarcely find its way ; the lathe shop has to be lighted by artificial means ; and all are cramped for roam and are ill adapted to the purpose for which they are used.

This is true not merely of the shops, but also of the buildings as a whole. The dormitories and class-roams are overcrowded ; the washrooms are altogether too small ; there is no place for lockers for the boys' char e of clothing ; the dining-room is dark and poorly ventilated ; there is not adequate room for the employees. 'Twenty-seven of the boys removed to the New York Catholic Protectory at the time of the fire its March, 1899, we have been unable to return to our own institution, owing entirely to lack ofaccomuisoclatuonc and to the constantly increasing minter committed to our care. 1Ve need a new building built for our purpose and fitted tip with in , -deru appliances that will enable us to do the work of making met as perfectly as it deserves and as we should like to have it done. The cost to the City would be slight compared with the return, it would receive in good citizens.

The installation Icy tilt' lbntinl ,4' \lanagcrs of a chloride accumulator storage battery has proved a valuable adlclition to our elc, lric-light plant. By its aid the are c•n;ublccl to secure from the lal,ur ul an eight-huttr clay twenty-four hours of service in furnishing uwtive power for our shop, and illuiniu:,tiun for our buildings and grounds. lit-tmctiuo is also male possible in electric nr.rhauicc.

Su f,cr Iny iepurt has treated of tile• life• of the boy.; in school and shop. It is our desire to keep their minds and hands so occupied that they can have neither tittle nor tilott_ilht for mischief, all, l to so vary their duties that the daily routine shall not becottte monotonous. But at the same time we talce cure that this .hail not be gained at the expense of health and recreation. Periods .0 re s •t .c t! in the rluy'.; schedule for play and rest. Every school afternoon the boy's are dulled in military tactic; and caliahenic,. The privates have been supplied with muckrt., and the officers with proper side arws. The,c accoutrements, together with the martial music furnished by a hand orgau.zerl nn>re tllait a year ago, add greatly to the interest and pride of the boys Ill the institution .nut to theIn-cIyes. to toe drill, and the intelligently regulated exercise, and the regular life of each day we [eel that we owe much ul our inttnunity from sickness. 1[ereto is attached it copy o.` the dlctary, to trhi! h ccc feel ju,tttied I,y experience in adhering.

Up to the time of the outbreak of typhoid lever, etunly in October, the health of the boys tccS excellent. 'I here hart I c cii only two cases of serious illness : one of pneu non a. n'htrli was fMI.lOe.1 by complete recovery, and uue of tubercular perituvitis. 'Phis boy was discharged to his haute uu tile application of I,is g uardian and the advice of otir physician. Several cases of minor ailmentl. t+e C, still not care for to advantage. Those requiring general treatment were sent to St. Peter's IIucjSttl ; and four received occasional treat nuut at the Brook lrn Eye and Ear Ilu;pital. ( )ur thanks are again due to 1)r. John I). h'osluuuiore, who has continued to give Iris ctiItu 1 I services tvith„ut compensation to the institution whenever needed.

Early In October it number of the boys reported at the School hospital, complaining of pains and nau,ca. 'I he house physician diagnosed and treated the cases as malarial. Later, however, the rymlctuInt Ivvt-l.pel so seriously, and were so peculiar and erratic, that Ijr. John D. Rush-murt tta; culled in consultation. A careful examination of the patients and the'hospiIal charts resulted in no ponitit e diagnosis, though the sustained seriousness of the illne.,s, in conjunction tcith the iuuusttiuttccry' condition ti the huildling~, imlicated that the outlireak might be typh cidal. N utice chits sent to the Board of I IealtIi. together with blood cultures taken from each pawient. IIr. 1'... Jewett, of tilt• I lealth I )eh artm cut t, visited the School, pronounced the malady to be ty phuid Icier, and recommended the reInc,sl of those patients, whose condition made such action advi,ablc, to one of the hospitals of the city, where snore roan and proper ventilation and con-vcuic•ncc. could be hod. I' iglit boys were transterrcd to the Kings County hospital, tvher'e they are now convalescing.

'I'hc same day that Dr. Jewett visited the school, Saturday, October 21, in the evening. Robert green, thirteen years ut age, cliecl, apparently of heart lailure. IIe was never a robust I coy . And thou,h the mualady in his case as,unted a serious nature his improveiuent for three clays hc•I~,rc his ,death h.ul hecn sit marked as to justify confident hopes of his ultimate recovery. Itit vVas but at the expense of the School in Evergreen Cemetery. his is the first deltic that lets occurred at the Scitoui since it, organization.

•[ Ite origin ui the sickness can he attributed only to the long-existing, general unsanitary conclit.un ut I'!e premises. It is a ,abject for c,,ngratulaticm that an epidemic had ncrt occurred long lie rc. A., suuu as the gravity of the ca,c became apparent, every lit ecautiou was taken to prcccnt the .,pread ut the disease. Itow effective these measures were is evident from (lie fact that there have been no subsequent cases, alt ought more than enough time has elapsed for the real,pearauce of the tuaiatly it it still Ilurcatened.

I to U: to,Ler 25 the building has eluted by the Board of health. The boys were transferred teutp rarily to the New York I.'atholic I'rotuctory, in the Borough of The Ilronx, there Iteing no suit.1hle institution in tuns County to which they could he niovecl, and the time allowed, five clay., being t to shalt to secure and fit up other quarters.

lever I cl re tea, u luir need for it properly equipped hospital and isolation ward sit strongly eniplia.+zC.I :t, during this Sicknes,. Every maheshitt liar[ to be resorted to that proper attention might be gLceu to the typhoid cases, assured and suspected, without uegiccting the cuts and hrui>c, of the other tots. The law requires that every boy uheu rcceivcd into the institution shah Ice c1tce.l ut strict ottrant.ne thereafter trscn the utfler innate, until ci,chirged Irons such goardcitwe Lt the house physician. No such quarters have ever been provff iecl it,.

It is %%Ill) pleasure ti,at I speak of one teat ore connected with the closing of our School and the reuoa:ti t'I the buy; at the tittle of the typhoid outl,reak, and that is the manifestation of the I01ititc change that ha; come over the spirit of the boy's under Our present method of mutt nage-ment. Their reluctance at leaving and regret at the break in their school life were evidenced by word amt act. This feeling is sbarc,l also by the parents and guardians of the boys. Scores of letters have Ice us recckcfl inquiriuk about the probable length of tine 1coys' absence, and expres;iue deepest grtlit is! o for what has l,._ert done for the boys antl commendation of the methods cniktccteiI. 'I jars' could lie no higt en or more acceptable itibutc• to the work of the l; yard of U cut SgcIN and those actively engaged in the conduct of the School.

Very respectfully, CIIAILE5 II. S[V'1'cVrolL'i', Superintendent.

Which were approved and ordered certified to the Comptroller for payment by the following vote :

Affirmative—Commissioners Ryan, Ten Eyck, Power and Windolph-4.

The Construction or Executive Committee referred to the Commissioners' Report No. 219 of the Chief Engineer, dated December 18, 1900, accompanied by a communication of Division Engineer Wegmann, dated December 7, 1900, relating to the rental of Parcel No. 339, occupied by Mary A. Talent.

A communication was received from the Department of Finance, dated December 17, 1900, in relation to the contract for the construction of the New Croton Dam.

Commissioner Ten Eyck moved that the communication be referred to the Construction or Executive Committee.

Which was carried by the following vote: Affirmative—Commissioners Ryan, Ten Eyck, Power and Windolph-4.

The following communication was received : CROTON-ON-HUDSON, N. Y., December 12, 1900.

To the Honorable the Aqueduct Commissioners, New York City: GEvT!,EMBN—The extension of time which you granted us June 23, 1899, will expire on the

I st proximo.

THE CITY RECORD. SATURDAY, JANUARY 19, 190I.

\b'e respectfully request a further extension of time of two years, for the reasons mainly stated in our letter of May I, IS99, as the work cannot he fully completed in le,; time, although every nail and machine that cat be u,ed fur speedy and complete work is now ancf has been used by us

in carrying nut our contract wt It the City. ' It night not lie out of place to make a comp;uisun with other tvorks th.tt have been recently

completed. For instance, all the contract, let by the Aqueduct Cuinmk- Oilers have taken from 25 per cent. to 50 per cent. more time to complete than was originally ir.uncd in the coot rtct.

The only works of similar charact.•.r in th-- world that approach in magnitude the New Croton Dam contract with which we could fairly make a comparison ate the Furens Dam and the Vyrnwy Darn in l:ngland, the latter being oit,>ut halt the size of the New Croton DAM and requiring about eleven years to complete.

•To cite some of the reasons why you should extend the lime for two years front the tot of January, igoi, 1 will mention that you uri inally nneu, led , rt hen you let the contract and named the time as seven years, In build only about 550.co cubic yards of nmsoncy. You have changed your p1 'iii , from time to tittle, as you laid the right to do, so that when the work is completed there will he about 950,000 cubic yards of masonry ; the, item in lis~11 wuuhl require two years' additional time. But in addition you lace, in changing your pIaus, increased the item of earth excavation from about 6co,000 cubic yards to shout 1,400,000 cubic yards, upon which we could re:is mably ask two years' additional time. The item of rock excavation twill also be increased frr-ni about 300,000 cubic yards to about 350,000 cubic yal,is. 'l'his item would fairly require an additional year's time.

Many of the other items in the contract have been proportionately increased, therefore we respectfully request that you extend our time from the 1st of January, igot, to January I, 1903,

Yours re,pccilnlly, COLEMAN, BREUCHAUD & COLEMAN.

Whereupon Commissioner Power offered the following preamble and resolution : Whereas, Application has been made by Coleman, lireuch.tud `Coleman, assigncusof Cole-

man, Kyan eA Brown, con u act ois, Or an exiension of time to (an oat y 1, 1903, in which to cocci -plete their contract for building the New Croton Danz, tin Cmtott river, at Cornell site, in the 'town of Cortlnuclt, Westchester County, New York ; therefore be it

Resilvccl, That the Aqueduct Commissiunci s hereby grant to Coleman, l;reuchaud & Cole- man, assignees of Cc clinic Ryan & Ibrown, contractors, an additional extension of tune to Jannary t, 1902, in which to complete the contract above referred to, providing their buuhl suit en shall, within ten day, t-om the date hereof, enter tub stipulations continuing their obltl;atious liar and during the cuitplctio n of diet contract under >aicl extension of time, which is hereby allowed to them as hid tier time for the performance of said contract.
