4 THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, CITY AND DISTRICT. INSPECTING THE TRAINS, Experiences Amonz the Refugees from the Fever Stricken District. Dr. Stratton, who has been inspecting Southern {rains for the past few weeks, said to a Stan re- porter yesterday that the wumber of persons arnwing bere from the South were increasing each day. Large numbers of persons, be sald, had arrived trom Hendersonville, N. C., and many of these passengers stated that they were leaving their homes on account of the yellow fever. Shortly after the fever broke out in Florida the Tesidents of Hendersonville gent an open invita- tioa to the peopie of Florida for them to come to Hegdersonvilie. Large numbers of the poorer class Of persons son arrived, and tne boardiag houses Were overcrowded. One of the refugees said the residents had expected the wealthier residents to secept their invitation and were disappototed Wit the class of persous who came, for tuey not only did not bring much wealta with them, but they brought the yellow fever. To-day, he sald, be Wilke Was almost deserted; business was Aba standstill, aud many of the residents will be Gnancialiy ruined. Que gentieman, Who arrived 00 @ Morning train, told Dr. siratton that he Was Jn business in Hendersonville, He said that he ad Jus put in his tail and winter stock, Dut that he had focked up his store and would not return Until sometime after frost had appeared at his at which time he expected his stock of goods ‘Would be ruined. Dr. Stratton also had a conversation with a phy- Siclan frou Florida, who spoke to him about the death of Prof. Proctor. When Prot. Proctor the physician said, ne was 88 well as be Could possibly have been. He was suffering with Bright's disease of the kidneys He supposed that the usual yellow fever treatinent, & Sweat bath, wus given him, Which produced con- of the kidneys and that be thougit was no bt the cause of death. Dr. Stratton said that ‘While the fever was rapidly spreading and a great many persons were dying, be thought the number ‘Of cases and deaths reported from the fever were exaggerated. He did not mean to say that false Teports of the disease were made, but he thought Uhat every person who had a pain or an ache im- agined that it was the result of the fever, and ‘Was treated for the fever. In many of these cases the doctor thought the patient might Rot have the fever, and the usual treat. ment for it might cause death; oF death might be caused by their real complaint, In making the inspection Dr. Stratton says that he comes acruss many peculiar persons. Many of ‘he passengers act suspiciously, and some refuse toteli their name or where tley are stopping. Such persons are watched more carefully thaa Others. Some Umes it ts found that these persons have purchased tickets frou point to point s0 as Lo throw persons off the track. One man who ar. Tived Sacurday pretended that he was intoxicated, and refused to give the doctor any information, ‘He was shadowed to a, saloon on 7th street, and when & po.icernan put Him tarougn « crossexam- Taation he became frigatened and gave the desired joformauon, sas aitpeetinne or jucked, ‘THE SENATORS DEFEAT?
