WEDNESDAY, JANU ARY 4, 1893.
All Eififl OPINIONS.
The. Country Ought Not to
Rely on Quarantine.
SWEEPING REFORMS ARE MUCH
TO BE DESIRED.
Federal Authorities Should be in
Charge.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.—The proposition
for a national quarantine has received a
fresh impetus by the recent reports of
fresh cholera cases abroad. While a na-
tional quarantine is regarded by many as
the best safeguard, there are others who
have had considerable experience in quar-
antine matters, both at home and abroad,
who question its efficacy. Among the
opponents is Dr. Irving Rosse, Professor
of Nervous Diseases at ' the Georgetown
University. He was in the service as
quarantine officer during the Lybee Island
cholera epidemic, and was subsequently
in Paris during a cholera epidemic. He
said to a correspondent:
7 Broadly speaking, I am opposed to
quarantine as at present enforced. Its
regulations are neither reasonable nor
scientific. They are founded on Middle
Age superstition and prejudice, which
some of our contemporaries stick to with
all the obstinacy of men absolutely inac-
cessible to modern ideas. For instance, I
have been quarantined in Cadiz on board
a healthy ship from Boston, because the
Spanish quarantine oficials had heard of
the existence of sporadic cases of yellow
fever in New Orleans. The same ship was
not allowed to stop at the Azore Islands,
where the authorities took our mail on
the end of along pole and fumigated itbe-
fore sending it ashore.
Quarantine by the general government
is by no means a new idea. It was advo-
cated by me in an editorial in the New
York Medical Record for March, 1873. At
the same time the adoption of precau-
tionar measures at the port of departure
and t 'e perfection of international ar-
rangements with friendly powers was
recommended. The administation of
maritime quarantine at the port of arrival
is comparatively useless as long as the
provisions desirable at the port of em-
barkation and the sanitary means to be
enforced during the voyage are neglected.
Only by a cosmopolitan code of regula-
tions can a proper quarantinebe enforced.
The question is perhaps one of the most
serious dimoulties of sanitary police and
international hygiene.
I am heartily in favor of sweeping and
radical reforms in the matter, since ex-
perience has shown that maritime quaran-
tine‘ is not public security. It falls to
keep out disease; many of the restrictions
are cruel, as well as burdensome and in-
jurious to trade. In abolishing them I
should rely mainly upon personal and
local hygiene, which has for its object
the preservation of the healthy individual.
It is much better to expend money and
energy in removing the local conditions
that favor the development and spread of
an epidemic.
This has been done for the last five and
twenty years in England, where qufl‘en-
tines are practically discontinued. ore
force is of equal importance with physics
health as a promoter of individual
hygiene. That calmness and serenity of
mind peculiar to our profession doubtless
had much to do w1tn the immunity of
of the medical attendants at the great
Hamburg Hespital. I well remember he
unconcern with which I touched and
handled the first case of cholera that I
ever saw, and that during the height of
the epidemic. I began dinner on clams
and ended on watermelon.
THOUGHT TO BE CHOLERA.
‘ A Virulcnt Drouth Afflicting Convicts in
Arkansas’ Penitentiary.
LITTLE Roox, Ark. , Jan. 4.—-The death
of another convict in the Arkansas Peni-
tentiary in this city and the dying condi-
tion of another has again alarmed the
community. A thorough cholera bacter-
ial examination is now under way. Dr.
Geddings of the United States Hospital
service believes the disease is a virulent
form of cholera. Strict quarantine has
been established, but the disease, what-
ever it may be, has spread beyond the
gates and several deaths have occurred in
the city.
They Believe in lVIurphy. l
' JAMESTOWN, N. Y., Jan. 4.——At a meet-
ing of the Cattaraugus County Committee
a lengthy resolution was adopted by a
large majority, which commends in the
most unequivocal and emphatic terms the
records and services of David B. Hill,
Roswell P. Flower and Edward Murphy,
who made the recent Democratic victory
possible. It recommends thgt Mr. Mur-
phy be selected for United States Senator.

MRS. RING MISSING.
':: :2 Young Man and They May Have
_ Hone Together.
.Rocs'nst-En, N. Y., Jan. 4.—-'I‘he mys-
terious; disappearance of Mrs. Myrtie
Ring, wife Of James Ring of West Greece,
has caused quite a sensation in that
hamlet as well as at Spencerpcrt, where
Mrs. Ring resided before her marriage.
She is the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Charles Smith of the Railroad Hotel at
Spencerport and Saturday afternoon drove
up to the hotel accompanied only by her
baby, apparently oh a few hours’ visit, to
her {001319. About 7 o’clock in the ,eve-
niug Mrs. Ring said to her mother that
she was going down street to call on some
lady friends and that it might be nearly
10 o’clock before she returned.
She then walked out, leaving the baby
with her mother, and since then has not
been seen by her people. Mrs. Ring is
young and pretty with a bright piquant
face, and her husband is several years
older and as the result of a severe sick-
ness about two years ago has been half
paralyzed and very much broken in health
since. Mr. Ring keeps a- saloon at West
Greece and is reported by the ne.ghbors
as very jealous of his wife. A young man
by the name of Boylan living at the same
place has also been missed, and it is sus-
pected by the neighborhood that the
simultaneous disappearance of the couple
was premeditated.
BLUE LAW HOLDS—GOOD.
Pennsylvania’s Highest Court Decides That
Sunday Newspapers Violate the Law.
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 4.——Among the de-
cisions handed down by the Supreme
Court yesterday was the one confirming
the legality of the old blue law of 1794, in
relation to the publication of Sunday
newspapers. The case upon which the
decision was rendered was that of Thomas
Matthews, publisher of the Pittsburg
Sunday Leader. Mr. Matthews was con-
victed of publishing and issuing his paper
on Sunday, December 27, 1891, under the
act of 1794, which prohibits the following
of worldly mrsuits on the Sabbath, save
those that are an absolute necessity for
the wants of the community.
The Supreme Court, in affirming the
decision of the lOWer court, gives as its
opiniorr‘that the law upon the subject is
plain, and it could do nothing but inter-
pret it as it did and confirm Mr. Mat-
thews’ conviction, The Court says that
the framers of the act of 1794 could not
foresee the growth of newapapers, or that
they would possibly have exempted them
under the provisions of the act. The
Court, in conclusion, commends the act,
but says that a too liberal enforcement of
its provisions may lead to its repeal, and
that it is in more danger from its friends
than from its foes.
FIVE TYPHUS DEATHS.
Extreme Measures “'auted for New York’s
m'er Fight.
NEW YORK, Jan. 4.—- The Board of
Health found yesterday that more ex-
treme measures were needed for the typhus
battle they have to fight. They had to
increase the medical staff, ordera'lodg-
ing house search for possible cases, and
call to their aid the Commissioners of
Charities and Correction. '
Yesterday the Health Board reported 12
new cases discovered, one suspect who
has been removed to the typhus tent at
the foot of East Sixteenth street, and
three deaths. The record shows that five
of the cases yesterday were discovered in
five fresh spots—No. 11 Bowery, No. 014

of his disease was not known until last
night when an autopsy was made. .
This makes a total of 67 cases discovo
ered since December 1, 1892,61 of them
since December 26. Five deaths, have oc-
curred. .
He Was Once Notorious.
ST. LOUIS, Mo., Jan. '4.—George McFad-
den, manager of‘ a variety theatre on
Fourth and. Poplar streets, attempted sui-
cide by shooting himself in the left breast
at the People’s Restaurant, 116 South Sixth
street. McFadden at one time became a
national notoriety. He in 1885 in connec-
tion with Prentiss Tiller robbed the
Adams Express Company in St. Louis of
$75,000. McFadden turned state’s evi-
dence and received three years in the
venitentierv. .. . . . .
I
BLODGETT IS WEARIED.
Doesn’t Like the Senate and Talks of Hip
. Successor.
WASHINGTON, D. 0., Jan. 4.—At the
Capitol yesterday Senator Blodgett talked _
* quite freelyabout the coming Senatorial
contest in New Jersey. He says be dis-
covered soon after he entered the Senate
that its surroundings were not congenial
to him. He would have resigned shortly
afterwards if'he could have named one'of
his friends as his successor. ‘ '
This he was unable to do in view of the
fact that he and Gov. Leon Abbott, while
. members of the Democratic party, are of
different factions. “I have no interest in
the fight personally, for nOthing could in-
d’uce me to serve another term. My
friends fully understand my position,"
said the Senator. “Gov. Abbott is am-
bitious to come to the Senate, but I do
not think he will succeed. James Smith,
a Well-tO-do dealer'in leather, from Essex
county, is Very apt to be my successor.
Mr. Smith is in my opinion stronger
with the people and the members of the
Legislature than Gov. Abbott.”
MR. BLAINE’S CONDITION.
Reported to Have Recovered the Ground
Lost on Monday.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.—-Mr. Blaine was
‘ better last evening than he was at the-
same time Monday. , ,
The report that Mr. Blaine suffered an-
other relapse and that his condition had
again assumed an alarming aspect was
not sustained by inquiries made.
On account of his peculiar organic dis-
ease Mr. Blaine, in his present weak con-
dition, is susceptible to the slightest
change of the weather.
These various changes have a depresing
effect upon his spirits, but are of short
duration. Mr. Blaine, it was said, ap-
peared unusually bright yesterday morn-
ing-and showed an especial interest in the
doings of the.members of the family.
The family share the belief of Dr.
Johnston that the err-Secretary is main-
taining the steady improvement noted in
his condition during the past week.

Pennsylvania's Legislature.
HARRISBURG, Jan. 4.—Mr. Thompson
was elected Speaker of the House yester-
day. Clerk Voorhees placed the name of
'W. H. Andrews of Crawford county, on
the roll instead of W. P. Higby, the al-
leged Democratic member-elect. Both
men appeared at the bar and took the.
oath. A large part Of Gov. Pattison’s
message was devoted to the Homestead
troubles. He advocated placing the costs
of calling'out troops hereafter upon'the
counties asking for them. He denounced
the Reading combine and the employ-
ment of Pinkerton police.
Carter's Mission to “Washington.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.—Chairman Carter
of the Republican National Committee
was at the Capitol yesterday. He was not
communicative as to his mission, but it
was soon ascertained that he was here
under subpoena from the Judiciary Com-
mittee oi the Senate. A sub-committee
of this committee, acting under authority
conferred by the Senate, has begun to
take testimony in relation to charges
made against Louis McComas, who was
nominated to be Judge of the Supreme
Court of the District of Columbia.
Congressional Business This Week.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.-—-The only busi-
ness 0: importance likely to be trans-
acted this week in the House is the pas-
sage of the Fortification Appropriation
bill, which is in the charge of Mr. Breck-
inridge of Kentucky. There is but little
chance that a quorum will be present to-
day, and the propriat’on bill will not
«be called up t1 Thursday. The Approp-
riation Lommittee expect that there will
be little, if any, general debate upon it,
and that it will pass during the day.
California Chose No Senator.
SACRAMENTO, Cal., J an. 4.——Both Houses

Democratic candidate, claims he hss1se~
cured Burke, the non-partisan,’- who
caucused with the Democrats, and also
Carlson, the Independent. If he has
those two he lacks only one vote.

Michigan's Senatorial Battle.
Lansma,’ Mich., Jen. e.-—'1"he Senatorial
battle which has been waging fiercely for
the past two days has lost none of its in-
tensity. All sorts of claims are being

candidates and hints of numerous dark
horses are heard. To an unprejudiced
observer, however, it looks as though
Stockbridge is in the lead. All indies“
tions force this conclusion.
No Ambition for the Senate. i
Wasnmoron, D. C.,Jan. 4.-—In reply to
