es wi THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE: TUESDAY, APRIL 13, 1880—TWELVE PAGUS. SMALL-POX. Some Very Bad Cases Discovered Yesterday. A Gonoral Bush to Be Vacoinated—Slight Mortality. ‘The Tealth Department opened tp yester- day morning with a rush of persons seeking vaceluntion. ‘They came fron every division efthe clty, and were of all ages and condl- tlons, aid at an early hour the scene was one of squalling babies, auxlons fathers, dejected and sympathetic mothers, and Industry tu public olltcitls whieh nothing but suen emergencles ever brings ont. ‘They all wanted to be vatelnated, and were! a hurry about it, mid no such picture has been wit- nessed for years thereabouts, Itshowed that the people are pretty generally alarmed over tho few cases of sinall-pox whieh have ap- penred. One of the troubles in this connec- tion 1a, however, that A FALSE IDEA has gone forth on the question of vaccination, the iden thatthe Department is bound to vaccinate everybody, and fs anxious todo It asn precantlonury measure against the sprentd of the disease; whereas the facts ara that covery person vaccinated by the Department fs vaccinated agin inntter of charity, ‘There 4 ‘are exceptions of course, but these exceptions n are confined to an infected neighborhood, where everybody fs vaccinated without re- gard to ability te pay. Very few who apply, however, are refused, that 1s, it the supply of vaccine * points” is sufficient, but the rush wns so great yesterday that inany had to be us turned away and sent to thelr respective physicians, beeanse the demand for * points” was largely in excess of the supply. THE FIRST NEW CASE of the diseaso repurted during the day was from No. 124 South Green street, and the re- port cama by mail, It was from Dr. Thomas A, Clark, aud the patient was a Mr, Carter, a he Doctor certified to having visited the ‘ ense at 4:30 o'clock Sunday afternoon, and to haying found It to be four days old and of 4 the confluent type. The Iealth Department a was yery anuch surprised that the mail e should have been used toreport it In this day 3 of telephones, and was inclined to censure at Dr. Clark, for the caso should have been re- moved twenty-four hours before it was and the premises thoroughly fumigated. As soon ns the report was recelved, however, Dr, Gur- rett was posted to the place, and found itto be all that had been represented, and that, notwithstancing the apparent nerli- ence in reporting It, the inmates of the fouse had not been greatly exposed, The patient was in an upper room, and another phystetan had partially vaccinated the mem- bors of the family, and done something in the way of fimignth y, but the Departnent took charge of the house, revaccinated and refumigated, and during the afternoon the patiunt wag taken to the Small-Pox Hospital. t was not thought necessary, for some ren- son or another, to post a warning cnrd, and this formality was dispensed with, but o guard was placed In the vicinity to prevent persons entering the house, and the inmates were forbid leaving the preinises for the present. a. THE NEXT CASE REPORTED ‘was by far the worst one which has yet ap- + peared, belng known a9 48 hemorrlingle cnse, and when seen the unfortunate was In a ver’ critical condition, and his life is despaired of. Uo gave his naine ag Fred Maney, and was found occu; ying a dingy basement at No. 202 South, aed sires! The case was Te 6 Departmen a gentieman to had called to. see him tho evening be- fore, and St Is‘scareely necessary to say that he wns greatly frightened. lle did notknow whether it was n genuine caso or not, but ‘was very anxious & have the question settled one ay, or another, and when it was settled his fright was increased, The Pailent was removed to tho Smiall-Pox Tospital Surlog the day, and afterward tho source of his in: fection’ was traced to No, 89 : South ilalsted street, where he had worked ie about two weeks aF0. The premises were Ls fumigated thoroughly and the Inmates yac- cinated, but again the posting of the warning card was dispensed with. When Dr. Do Wolf, however, heard of the card belay omitted, he countermanded the order an enused one to be posted, and gave orders that inall cases hereafter one be posted and kept up until ordered down. Ile also ordered the closing of the upper part of the building fora thine, but does not think that all the precautions that can be. taken will prevent one or more further cases from that locality, o tho fact being that the patient was very much exposed, and had beon sick for some time, Another cnse was reported from the corner of Halsted and Lake streets, where a patient was found a few days ago. An examination showed that the alarin came of a child being sick from the uffects of yaceluution, and that there was no real trouble. ‘The preinises were found, however, inn fiithy condition, and on general principles the | alleys and yards were ordered clenned, and t dlsinfectants ure to beused freely, It, would ‘be very natural, Dr. De Wolf thinks, to have one or more new eases from that neighbor- hand i fe ge days, butas yet there are no 8 0 ANOTHER CASE ‘was reported from the viciulty of No. t18i¢ Btate street, but it proved to be a false alarm, —or nt least the authorities were satlatied that itwas, ‘Tho supposed case was a little giv) who was examined some days ago, Who Was suffering from the effects of vacelnation. ler face was broken out, and she had some ever, but the other symptoms were absent. ‘The report enme froma workman who had Deun sent to the house, but being met nt the door by the little ong he beat a hasty retreat, wit left the work he had been sent to do un- done, Last evening threa new cases were report- edto have been discovered on Green street, near Monroe, ant Drs.

A NEW SOUTIIERN COMBINATION, It was stated in Tis Trinune ot Sunday that Mr. W, IL Osborn, President, and James C. Clark, General Manager, of the Chicago, St. Louls & New Orleans Railroad (New Or- Jeans branch of the Ilinols Central), had are rived tn thiseily feom n tour of tnspection over thelr rond, + It now transpires that this tour of Snspeetion had more than ordinary slguificance, and may oventually prove of erent moment to this city, ng well as to Cin- elunall, Before the Loulsvilla & Nashville scooped in the prinelpal Southern roads, all the business that went over the Nashville & Chattanooga Koad from Nashville to New Orleans passed over the Chicago, St. Louls & New Orleans Railroad, Under — the present condition of things, the Int- ter rond cannot hope to get any business from Nashville to New Orleans, tho mutnagement of tho Louisville & Nashvilie carrying all of It via Montgomery. 1n order not to be despofled of this business, the Chi. cago, St. Louis & New Orleans Railroad Proposes to make common cause with the Cin- cinnatl Southern, the former to build a line from Jackson, Tenn, to Nashville and the latter ‘from Knoxville to Nashville, Suelo Tine woud enable the Chienzo, St Louis & New Orleans Railrond to maintain the bust- ness enjoyed heretofore, snd make thislineas well as the Cincinnati Southern entirely In- dependent of the Louisville & Nashville com binutlon. ‘Phe ofticers of the above roads are still engaged jn considering the project, and the prospects are that the extenstors will be made. If it is done tt will ben serlous blow for tho Loulsyile & Nashville and both Chi- en ah and Cinelunat! will have good reason to reJjolee, . WILL NOT SHORTEN ITS TIME. For some days past the railroads here have been ngitated over tho report that the Wa; bash, St. Louis & Pacific Railroad Company intended to put on fast trains between Omaha and New York, that would beat the time mado at present by the roads running yla Chicago about six hours, It was pre dicted that when this matter came up at the ‘Time-Table Convention to be held nt ithe Grand Paelfic Hotel in this elty to-morrow there would benliot time, as the Chicago roads were greatly opposed toa change in tine, Ono of the Iowa roads, it Is stated, would not be able to shorten its time enough to meut the reduction the Wabash was said to make, because its engines had not the required speed, and in order, to keep even with Its rivals this line would have to resort to a reduction In rates. It now turns out, how- ever, that the Chicago roads were needlesly exercised over the matter, Tire Trinune is authorized to state, on the authority of Gen- cral-Manager Gault, of tha St. Louls, Wa- bush & Pacitie, that hiy road has no expecta. tion of shortening the present time, and that there would be no. controversy regarding that matter In the Convention. Consequently thers need bo no expeetation of a lively iime, as thore are no other serious complica- tlons to be considered, ‘The little difleulty between the three Towa pool lines regarding the action of the Bu Flings fon in putting on special Sunday trains Missourl River points, via Creston, Is not be- ileved to be of great moment, and can proba- bly be settled without much trouble.
