10 DIPHTHERIA. Av Important Meeting of the Public Health Asscciation. Bow to Check Its Spread—Important Facts in the History of Diphtheria. There wi a small but highly intellectual gathering lastevening at the School of Mines, Forty-ninth street, between Madison and Fourtn avenues. The subject under discussion was one ef great interest—diphtheria, Dr. C, F. Chandler, Chairman of the Board of Health, presided, and Dr. A. B, Judson acted as secretary. Dr, J. Lewis Smitu read a paper on the “Causes ‘and Nature of Diphtheria, with a Review of the Bacterian Theory.” He said that previous ta the time of Bretonneau but very httle was known of ‘the causes and wature of diphtherta, but in | Ris memoirs {t was plainly shown that It had | @ specific virus which was communicable from person to person by inoculation, and in no other way. Bretonnean created an tnterest in the study of this malady, which, kept alive by the recur- rence of freqnent epidemics, continued unabated, and the result of clinical observations had been not only to establish the doctrine of contagious- ness by inoculation or contact, but also to render probable, indeed, nearly to demonstrate, its con- tagiousness THROUGH THE BREATH OF THE PATIENT | and through exhalations from his surface, so that | as aremeyer says, “diphtheria should be classified | among infectious diseases and among those that are most typically contagious.” Lately animals had been experimented upon | nd thereby important results achieved. Those ‘who had taken the lead in this new line of investi- gation were Oelsen, Bah! and Hitter, of Germany, and others. They claimed to have discovered the cause of the malady in the existence of micro- scopic vegetable parasites which had been desig- mated “bacteria.” ‘hese had been divided by Cohn into lour genera, but only two of these sus- tained a causal relution to diphtheria—namely, ‘the sphero-bacterium and the rod-like bacte- rium. In every tissue whicn was the seat of a@iphtheric inflammation tue spherical bacteria occurred in immense numbers, accompanied by a wmalier number of the other kind. In severe cases they also occurred in the blood. Ordinarily, as the disease increased in violence @ gradual m- crease in the number of spherical bacteria could | be demonstrated by the Microscope. On the other Rand, when the diphtheric inflammation disap- peared these bacteria decreased in numbers aud Other vegetable forms succeeded. In the very be- ginning the grayish white spots which appeared upon the iofamed surface consisted entirely of these bacteria, with epithelial cells; whole fibrin | aud pus appeared at a later period. . REMARKS BY DR. CURTIS. Dr. Edward Curtis was requested to make some e@bservations on the subject. He remarked that the question of the nature o/ diphtheria pre- sented two important issues. In the first place the question must be asked, What was the cause of the malady? The little orgauisms called bac: teria were undoubtedly present in the patients, | Dat it was still questionable whether the} were the causes or wa: the effect. The experiments in the way o/ inoculation had not | yet fully dectaed the question. The other point, he relation of the external disease to the constitu- tional infection, was quite a different matter. Dr. Ortel maintained that up to the development of thefaise membrane the malady was always local and that only after their development the diseases grew to be constitutional. However, the proposi- tion had not been positively proven. In many clinical cases it had been found that local attacks of the eye, &c., could exist without the general constitutional disturbance. The kid- ney Was generally greatly affected by the local disease. Dr. Curtis then spoke at length of the @eaths of animals, woich were generally carricd om far more rapidiy than children, and based some ingenious reasoning on this !act. However, Shere was yet a great deal being done in the in- Vestigation of the causes and the nature of the malady. HOW TO CHECK THE DISEASE, After sundry remarks by various gentlemen present, Dr. George Bayles presented some inter. esting views on “The Public Sanitary Control of Diphvheria.” Dr. Bayles prefaced mis views by alluding to the many difficulties In the way of successiully coping with the malady. It had now | reached a beight in this city which called for the | ‘se oO! the hignest energies. The hospital pian tor | the purpose of isolating tue patients was a failure | because so many of them were children who could by no means be separated from their parents. He incited to the belief that the diph- theria miasma was peculiarly subject to neutraliz- mg influences of pure atmosphsre, &£c. How could the necessary isolation be effected? Only by looking to the Board of Health for the full exer- cise Of its plenary powers. He proposed the or- anization of a Staff of inspectors wno were to ‘tack at once every case of diphtheria. Every | house should be placed, as it were, in a state of siege. The patient should be carried up to the highest story, where he could be most effectually 1s from the other dwellers in the it house. The Health Department could furnish its own medicines and feed the poor sick at the ex- pense of the municipal government, At the Present time there were pernaps only 100 houses in which cipitberia could be found, and = some fifty or sixty Geaths ensued every month. ‘be expense of the special physicians, nurses, &c., | woald be very insignificant 48 compared with the effectual check of the disease, which might be ac- complished by the adoption of this Dilan. The co- | Operaticn of voluntary nurses shoutd be enlisted. | Also of all those who had the healtn of the city at Beart. THE HISTORY OF DIPHTHERIA. | Dr. Elisha Harris, Registrar of Vital Statistics, | gave some interesting Jacts in the history of @ipbtberia in this city and country. The said dis- | ease was a very old One and had been Known here as the “putrid sore throat,” the “malignant | augina,” 4&c., since the first colonization of tne | Continent, However, it was not important to | search these old records, The first fatai case | registered under the name of diphtherta in New York city Was treated by Dr. Wiliam Madweil, | amd occurred on February 20, 1859. Beiore | the year was over more than _ fiity i cases of diphtheria had appeared. Until near tue end of 1859 the city had suffered very lightly from | this disease, but at that time physicians ail over New York began to note the spread of the peculiar | symptoms of this aise: In 1863 there were over | 900 cases of death irom diputheria, woich was the | highest figure it had reached uutiltnen. Tnen | there Was @ decrease until 1873, when the fatal | eases of diputheria numbered over 1,100. | Dr. Day, the Sanitary Superintendent, showed @ | map exhibiting the progress of tne epidemic dur- | ing the last two months, and the meeting then ad- | Journed, | & Meeting at the Eastern Dispensary. | Yesterday noon @ full meeting of the Medical | Board of the Eastern Dispensary, Grand and Essex streets, was beid, with special refer- ence to dipitheria. Among the medical gen- | tiemen present were Drs. Jona P. Garrish, Thomas ©. Finnell, A, A. Davis, John D, Granpet, R. J. @’Salivan, Purcell, Faller-Walker, Mulvany, | Henry Raphael, Piigrim and others. 1 Dr. Puller-Walker, Secretary of the Boara, | opened the discussion, He said that in connec- tion with our public schools he would abandon the use of basement rooms cut off trom sunlight and fresh air. He would have it somebody's busi- mess to see that the children were properly | clothed and protected from the cold, He agreed “with Dr. Davis and br. Garrish that dipntheria contagious and floats in the atmosphere. In the winter Of 1561-2 he saw much diphtheria in the Valiey of Lake Champiain and the Adirondack | Mountain region. lhe country Was weil drained, the people had good houses apd lived weil, yet diphineria raged Jearsully om the mountains and | im tne valleys, | Dr. R. J. O'Sullivan, President of the Board, said Wwe sould strive to ascertain the predisposing causes of dipntheria. He spoke of delective drain- aue, the unsanitary condition of tenement houses, and insisted that our schools should have medical inspection. He thought many diseases owe their origin vo the gepression of the times, There is | much debility, continued fever and blood poison- | ing. The profession should be ready to meet the | causes wherever iound. The Board of Heaitn and | the Board of Education should work | and cases of diphtheria should ve lie knew of po body of men ompetent to ascertain the causes of the Prevailing epidemic o! diphtheria than the phy- siclans of the unmense Eastern Dispensary district, extending as it does from James Slip to Fourveeet street and from First avenue to the river, He was not prepared to say that the pres- ent Management of our schools, as has been asserted, in caring for tne puysical wants of the pupils, was chargeable with having induced the present epidemic. There can ve but little doubt that the unhealthy surroundings of the schools have constituted an element in continuing the epidemic. Medical inspection is mecessary for whe protection of the health of the #@chool children; more so than ever, as tne Com- pulsory Education iaw wiil largely increase tue Bomber In the primary acnools, tte ical inspeo- tion can do much tn abating unsanitary surround- ings of acnools, in eniorcing nliness, avoidance Of exposure to cisease and in the isola- tion of the sick. He hoped the Board of Ednca- tion would consider this subject in the light its importance demands. Dr. Purcell said that in England the law re. ires each school child to have fifty cupic feet ot | diseases in this of the same name in London, c diputheria in bis own practice, which he called «oudle tonailitis.

We have not school houses enough, and the building of teaement houses should be controled. Dr. Mulvany related a case of aiphtherla In Harlem (128th street), where four chiidren died in Jourteen Gays from one house. The family was Wealthy, the house @ fine brown stone, detache, With an open lot in front The street was paved with which was somewhat de causes for the disease could be asce' Dr. A. A.

THE BOY BUTCHER. Prial ot Jesse Pomeroy for the Murder of the Millan Child—Fearful Record ot Cruelty—Verdict of Murder in the Wirst Degree. Boston, Dec. 10, 1874. Probably there never was before known a juven- fle criminal possessea of such murderous and fiendish prociivities as the one whose trial for one | of his murders has just been Mnished in the Supreme Court in this city. The story of his murders, including that of little Kate Curran and bis various atrocities, pave | already been toid in the HERALD. In the triai for the murder of the Milan boy, just concluded, it appeared from the evidence that on the 224 day of last April the body of the victim, @ boy scarcely riour years old, was found in @ piece of marsh which lies north of the Old Colony Railroad and Dorcuester avenue, near the Crescent avenue station. The body was still warm and bore the marks of some fifteen stabs, The throat was cutand the hands of the child were badly lacerated. The body was found by a twelve-year-old boy named Powers, who was out digging clams with a deaf and dumb brother: Upon the discovery of the body by the littie voy Powers be saw two men up the marsh and ran ana told them of what he bad discovered. Lhe men were there for practice With a gun, but tm- mediately took steps to notily the police and care fur the body. It proved to be that of tue lad Horace H. Millan, who had resided but a iew months at hig home on Dorchester avenue, Tne last the boy’s mother had seen of her clild was at ten o’clock on that day, when she gave him a penny to go to the baker's to get a cake, At hall-past eleven he was seen by other boys accompanied by the Pomeroy boy. Subsequent to this, about twelve o’ciock, they were scen by other parties together, going toward McKay's wharf, and thence by a bridge to the marsh, At the creek they were met by another boy who was coming away from where some men were digging lams. Ine Pomeroy boy spoke to this last lad, | and askea what the men were shooting on the marsh, and so was recognized by the latter. Pomeroy boy was seen to lift the Millan over the creek, and their tracks, large and small, were afterward traced, side and side, to the spot where the body was iound, All these, together with other strong circumstances point ing to ois guilt, were orought out at the trial. THE LINE OF DEFENCE adopted at the trial was insanity, and the points which were proven were well stated by the coun- sei ip his Opening argument, He said that when first he took charge of the case he had some doubts as to whether the prisoner was tne gnilty party; butas time wore on it had come to his mind that such was the fact. Thougn he had allowed the government to proceed with their case and put in such testimony as had bearing upon the case, ne had admitted many things with- out holding the government to a strict proof. This boy was just now past is fifveenth year, and at the time of the crime was but fourteen years and five months old. Had it veen five months earlier It would have been a question in law as to his responsibility, for between the years of seven and fourteen it is @ disputed polat whetner a person can be responsible jor crime. The circumstances of the case were remarkable, as had been the boy's lileé and character since birth. Beore he was three years oid he was very sickly and was not expected to live for a long tims At five years old he exhibited remarkable characteristics; he was discovered on one ovcasion inflicting cruelues on @ cat, and there were many instances where he showed peculiar traits of character, It had been the endeavor of his mother to bring bim up prop- erly, and, aside trom the peculiarities exiibited, he Was a food boy. In August, 1871, he was very sick with pneumonia, since which time he bas acted strangely and seemed to delight in human soffering. The boy cannot contro! his feelings, and ne thinks himself that no cnud would be sale when in his bands. The counsel claimed that Pomeroy Was insane, and that the act committed by him was that of an irresponsible person. During the progress of the trial, which com- menced last Monday, there has been the most in. tense public interest manifested. Tne eviaenc was all in yesterday. and to-day has been reserve: for the arguments for and against the prisoner, the charge of the Court and tne VERDICT OF THE JURY. ‘The case was given to the jury at about half- past five this afternoon, and alter deliberating until nearly eleven o'clock this evening they came ‘roe lad | not school chil- CHAMPION RUDOLPHE. Professor Rudolphe Beats Professor Gar- mier and Wins the Champion Cup— Rudolphe Runs 161. ‘There was a considerabie amount of preliminary business before Messrs. Garnier and Rudoiphe got to work last evening. The first discussion was on the question of referee, and after several names had beer mentioned the players agreed to accept Captain Reeves, Mr. Delaney oMiciated as judge for Garnier and Mr, Guilletie for Rudolphe. The game was announced by Chris, O’Con- nor, and at twenty-fve minutes past eight play commenced, The eeats in the house were pretty well filled, and & tolerable sprinkling of the fair sex were scattered through the spectators, There was considerable betting on the game, Garnier having the call at about 100 to 80. A sew minutes elapsed before the players selected their balls, and at last, all preliminaries being arranged, tney strung for the lead, and fortune favored Rudolphe, Thas great FRENCH PLAYER, after avery careful examination of the tvories, Started to work in bis usual systematic style, aud showed that he bad not quite forgotten the cunning of his trade by running 33 very neatly. Garnier then made his début, and, after playing several pretty shots, broke down on @ difficult massé aiter scoring 14 Rudoiphe then returned to work with the bulls in a heap before him, and he nursed them very beautifully, making some artistic massé shots that brought tne bails together each time and leit an easy score. , He finally missed a rather easy carom and added $2 to his count, Garmer then rolied up 17 and went out on an easy massé, Rudoiphe then let up @ litile and made only 4 in four innings, while Garnier rolled up 18 on the sixth and repeated with 25 on the seventh. The game stood at the close of the tenth inings, GARNIER, 84; RUDOLPHE, 80. Rudolphe then went to work and, played a won- deriui innings, tor the most part dificult round the table shots and brilliant massés, He was piay- ing with grest care and precision and evidently meant business. After rolling up 61, he lalled to count, and Garnier scored 3. Rudoiphe then tqok another innings and played with the balis about as he pleased, adding 72 to his score. At the close of the tweiith innings the game stood, RUDOLPHE, 213; GARNIER, 88. On the fourteenth both counted 13, and then each repeated with 2 Alter a miss {rom Rudolpne Garnier started a little run, playing witb the mar- vellous quickness and accuracy that characterizes his game. He ran 52, and then played jor a dutfi- cuit massé, but failed to connect, It was really remarkable to watch the game, as both men were ying very well. Rudolphe then added 13 to bs Lea: and Garnier went out alter counting 1. It 1s extraordinary how tn- cousiderate in their expressions of approba- tion and disapprobation many people are that attend billiard matches. For instance, @ number of people hissed Rudolphe when he made @salety miss, They evidently knew nothing of the game or else taey would have applauded his good judgment. On tue twenty-first inning Rudoiphe scored 2s, and then Garnier played a pretty inning tor 31. ‘The score stood :— RUDOLPHE 278, GARNIER 196, On the twenty-toird inning Garnier ran 22 and Rudoiphe foliowed with 34. Garnier had now got warm to bis work, andin the uext inning, get- ting the balls along the leit side cushion, nursed them bag pit grr driving them gradually up to the top. They separated, but a cleverly played shot of exact strength brought them together in exact position tor the cushion nursing. He finaliy broke gown alter scoring 101 and leading we game. "| * GARNIER 319, RUDOLPHE 312, Un the twenty-severth inning, alter a short in- ternussion, Rudolphe put 22 together and then Garnier, alter counting 6, got the bails troze and failed to score on the opening shot. Professor Rudolphe then commenced, and, notwithstanding bis assumed annoyance, proceeded to make one of the largest runs on record, It was not all nursing, but good, general play, all around the table, exhibiting great practice in all draw and | masse shots, Alter scoring 161 the bails froze and | he failed to count from the spot. At the close of the twenty-eighth inning the game stood:— RUDOLPHE 500, GARNIER 337. On the thirtieth inning Rudolphe again played a good run of 27, which was followed by 7 {rom Garnier. Rudolphe then succceaed in adding 20 to his score and Garnier put 7 on bis string. The game now looked to be virtually overt, as Rudolphe Was about 200 ahead and only wanted 45 to go; but uhey did not appear to run his way, as he played a half dozen innings not averaging 3. Garnier was playing equally poor, but in the thirty-ninth Ru- dolphe commenced to do @ jittle work, and, play- steamani 1p H Livingston, Mallory, Savannab—W B if Leamhtp Charleston, Barry, Charleston—J W Quin- Steamshtp Richmor Read, orto, City Point and Richmond—Old Dominion steamship Co Steamship Fanita, Howe, Phuadelphia—Lorillard Steamship Peery issuers, Jounsen.

The programme included quartets, duos, solos and piano/orte selectious by well known compes- ers, a8 Weil as recitations, all of which were cretut- avly rendered and seemed togive general satisiac- tion. In the second part Miss Emily M. Stone, who possesses an excellent soprano voice, noticeable alike for its sweetness and power, recetved quite an ovation for the hignly arustic manner In which she sang ‘‘Waiting.” In «The Evening Song” and also in the quartet from “Rigoletto,” aud in the sextet from “Lucia,” her voice was also heard to advantage. A symphonia quartet, consist- ing of Messrs. Maas, G. M, Dennison, L. F. Weis- mann and G. P. Warner, contribated much to tife enjoyment of the occasion. Miss Forster, con- tralto; Mr. J. Jewett, baritone; Mr. Stark, elocu- tionist, and Mr. H, N. Bartlett, pianist, also con- tributed much to the success of the concert, which was altogether well arranged and a source of Pleasure so those in attendance. FREE TRAINING SCHOOLS FOR WOMEN.
