Class I» NEW YOEK CITY — (Continued). In accordance with this resolution, the New York city mem- bers of the State Board of Charities invited citizens, repre- senting, as far as possible, all portions of the community, to assist in organizing this society, under a carefully prepared constitution, and to act as a provisional central council until their successors should have been chosen by this society at large, at its first annual meeting. The following article from the constitution shows the principles and objects of the society: Article II. — Principles and Objects. Section 1. This society shall be cx)nducted upon the follow- ing fundamental principles: 1. Every department of its work shall be completely severed from all questions of religious belief, politics and nationality. 2. No person representing the society in any capacity what- soever shall use his or her position for the purpose of prose- lytism or spiritual instruction. 3. The society shall not directly dispense alms in any form. § 2. The objects of the society shall be — 1. To be a center of intercommunication between the vari- ous churches and charitable agen.cies in the city. To foster harmonious co-operation between them, and to check the evils of the overlapping of relief. 2. To investigate thoroughly, and without charge, the cases of all applicants for relief which are referred to the society for inquiry, and to send the persons having a legitimate inter- est in such cases full reports of tlie results of investigation. To provide visitors, who shall personally attend cases needing counsel and advice. 3. To obtain from the proper charities and charitable indi- viduals suitable and adequate relief for deserving cases. 4. To procure work for pcor persons who are capable of being wholly or partially self-supporting. 5. To repress mendicity by the above means and by the prosecution of impostors. Class I. Charity Obgamzation Societies. 9 NEW YOKK CITY — (Continued). 6. To promote the general T^'elfare of the poor by social and sanitary refonns and by the inculcation of habits of provi- dence and self-dependence. The central office of the society is the center of intercom- munication above named. It receives from all co-operating churches and charitable agencies detailed reports concerning their beneficiaries, and distributes (confidentially) informa- tion so received to each of them which reports that it is aid- ing, or is asked to aid, the same cases. The fifth and sixth of the aforegoing " objects " also receive the special care of the central office. The work implied in the second, third and fourth of these " objects " is the special care of the district committees of the society, as fast as they are formed; and to tJiese the actual care of dependent cases, residing in tlie districts assigned to each, may be referred. Cases not residing in districts so assigned, and not already sufficiently cared for by other societies or churches, may be referred to the central offict) of this society. The charity organization society thus becomes: 1. A clearing house of registration, information and asso- ciated action among all the charitable activities of the city. 2. An exchanye through which to apply the co-operative sys- tem to benevolent work, and bring to bear on i-ach case of distress the best available resources of the whole city, espe- cially foY jjerm anent and adequate relief; above all along such moral lines as are likely to render applicants independent of further temporary or physical relief. 3. A mercantile agency for information conceining the charitable enterprises of the city (of which there are many fraudulent and pretended ones), and also concerning appli- cants for charitable relief. The society has no funds of its own for direct relief, but it has a permanent endowment fund, the income of which goes towards paying the expenses of the central and district b 10 Charity Organization Socie'iiks. Class I. NEW YORK CITY — (Contmued). offices; and the increase of this fund will enable the society the more efficiently to enlarge and cany on its work. The society has in its registradon bureau the records of more than 160,000 families or cases; and is a center of exchange for 488 co-operating societies and churches. I^urmg 1892, 6,924 cases were investigated and treated for members and co-operating agencies or on personal application, and 732 street beggars were dealt with.

O., Fishkill-on-the-Hudson) — DUTCHESS COUNTY. — State Asylum for Insane Criminals. — This is the oldest and pioneer institution anywhere established for the exclusive care and treatment of the criminal insane. Although an act was passed in 1885, which provided for the erection of a separate asylum for insane convicts who, prior to that date, had been cared for at Utica, no appropriation was made until 1857; and it was not until the following year that the organic act (Chap. 130, Laws of 1858) was passed, which legally established this asylum as the '' State Lunatic Asylum for Insane Convicts." The buildings were first opened for the reception of patients, February 2, 1850, at Auburn, N. Y. Some years afterwards, by chapter 895, Laws of 1869, its scope was materially enlarged and its title changed to the " State Lunatic Asylum for insane Criminals.'' By this act, it was empowered to receive unconvicted cases upon judicial orders from the courts and from the various State asylums by transfer. The original organic act has since been revised by chapter 446, Laws of 1874; chapter 574, Laws of 1875; and finaUy by chapter 289, Laws of 1884; and its name changed to the present title. The asylum is now operated under the provisions of chapter 289, Laws of 1884; chapter 446, title 2d, Laws of 1874; rhapter 515, Laws of 1884; and such provisions of the general laws as are applicable to Division 1.
