Oyster—(round Litigation Turns out lobe

Several hours were spent in the Burm-
ford City Court, yesterday, one the Ad-
vocate. in final proceeding in connec-
tion with the famous "Rambler" seizure
case. Colonel Frost and ex-Judgs Perry.
representing H. P. Morgan, owner of the
"Rsmbler' and also the other parties
who take issue with Oliver Cook,bad
prepared a statement of facts which they
wanieiapread upon the court records
This did not suit counsel for Cook-

After wrangling over it for a couple of
hours. Judge Downs announced that he
should We a statement of facts separate-
ly. Evidently the Cook side of the case
does not want as many facts filed as do
the other people. Then a long time was
spent in taxing the costs. Counsel for
Mr. Morgan presented a bill of $003.10.
which included witness fees and compen-
sation at the rate of Si a (iiy for eighty~
three days for the seized boat. The costs
taxable to ihe other side are a good deal
less, because there were fewer witnesses

Counsel for the ill"! 31} they propose
to appeal to the Court of Common Pleas,
but Lawyers Frost and Perry do not
think the cm» can be appealed tothnt
court, but must go to the Supreme Court
of Errors if it is appealed or all, and must
be argued there on points of law. it
rests with the tlourt of Common Pleas to
allow the parties to inks the appeal to
that court, and, in case it does. all the
evidence will probably be repeated. The
intention of Dir. Cool: seems to be to
light it out to the bitieivend, and if the
final judgment is against him he will iind
his litigation a mighty expensive luxury.

believed. amtrectsd tbedissasa by retina
”wintertime which typhoid germs
bad beya‘wasied from aaewer near the
bed. harvested some discussion among
bacterioloitlaie in tnlecivy, while at the
some time the oystsrmen are interested
in whattotbemisanew discovery.
Where these oysters, which were eaten
at a secret society banquet about five
weeks ngo. came from. cannot be learn-
ed, but Dr. J. C. Poole. tbe' demonstra-
tor in bacteriology at Yale. who has been
experimenting on the existence of ty-
phoidl'gcrms in was. is of the opinion
thatthe oyster must have been taken
from a bed near the outlet of a sewer.
He has ascertained that a tv pboid germ
will live nine days in an oyster, but
whether this existence might not be pro-
longed if the oyster were in its bed is a
question which has not been settled as
yet.
Dr. Demons“ inspector ol the Con-
tagious Diseases Department of the Board
of Health, and there was no doubt that
typhoid germs might live in oysters, and
that anyone who ate such oysters would
surely catch the disease. He too, new-
svsr. was at a loss to imagine where the
bed was which was said to be close to a
sewer.
"To my mind there is no doubt but
that typhoid germs, wubed out of a
sewer into a bed of oysters. and taken in
by the bivalves, would remain alive there
forsaveraldaya. and that it would be
dangerous for anyone to eat the oyster,
whose juices probably nourish the bacilli.
i think crabs and lobsters are liable to be
infected in the same way, but the danger
in eating these is lessst in that they
are cooked before being eaten, and in
this way the germs are killed.
"There is no danger to be apprehended
from the oyster question, however. for
it is probable that the precise bed from
which were taken the oysters which kill-
ed the students' is the only one that is
auywi ere ncara sewer it would save
‘lives. however, if this sewer could be lo-
crted, and the had destroyed, but this,
i suppose, is an impossibility."
Dr. Beebe, the assistant pathologist of
the Board of Health‘s bacteriological
lahontor‘y,whom I saw.in the absence of
Dr. Bigger the chief, is of the same opin-
ion.
“The oyster,” he eaid,;‘is undoubtedly
a good medium for the transmission of
diseases which are caused by germs, but
there are few oyster beds that are any-
where near a sewer, and for that let us
be thankful. So we will continue to eat
oysters, just as we drink milk, which is
one of the beat transmittaqof all kinds
of disease germs. and water, also. if we
were to stop eating everything which
might introduce disease germs into the
system, we would never eat anything
that had not been thoroughly coolmd."
The six Greek letter fraternities at
Wesleyan University held their annual
banquet initiations on October ill, and
within a week or ten days a form of
sickness began to develop among the
students, which aiierward proved to be
typhoid fever. The sickness was en-
tirely confined to the members of three
societies, the D. K. E., Chi Psi and Phi
Nu 'l‘heta.
An investigation was immediately be-
gun by Dr.A. W. Conn. professor of hi.
ology. and Dr. Undssy, of the State
Braid of Health. A careful examina-
tion of the food supplied at the banquet
developed the fact that these three so-
cieties had served oysters onthe half
shell, which were all part of one lot of
Fair Haven oysters. The Bets Theta Pi
sooietyalso had oysters. but they were
from Chesapeake bsy. The Fair Haven
oysters had been placed in the Quinni-
piacrlverto fatten. They were placed
