Above are given the Health Officers of the Town and Borough. They are not men-deVoid of human sympathy Or a due senseof oiiicial responsibility, in the face of a grave danger. Yet the charges made by Dr. Tracey, if true in any degree, as they unquestionably are, go to show that our officials have grown at least careless and indifferent in a measure, no doubt, by reason of our past good fortune in an almost to- tal exemption from anything like a spread‘of contagious diseases, here in Norwalk. The good/ health and the low rate of mortality, in Norwalk, are prbverbial. But eternal vigilance is as of liberty. On the first outbreak of that dire and extremely contagious malady, diphtheria, every possible efi'ort shouldhava been put forth' to stamp it out. Yet nothing effective was done and instead cf one case, the town now has four additional ones, and as scores of persons have been exposed to the fearful contagion, no one can fore- tell where it is to be arrested. Warden Sloan acted with commenda- ble promptness as soon as he heard of the . outbreak and ordered borough, health officer McKeon to at once in- spect the infected premises and they were immediately policed. Yet to this date, Dr. Tracey charges that no really effective measures of sanitation have been resorted to, to stamp out the con- tagion. The Doctor makes this far graver charge. He assures the GA- za'r'rn that in no case, during his prac- tice in Norwalk, has he neglected to give immediate notice to the proper health officials of‘a contagious disease patient, yetin no. single‘instance has he ever known any attention to be paid to such notice. This is certainly a good habit of neglect. , * POSTSCBIPT. The attention, of " the Gsznrrn is called toSec. 12 of Chapter CGXLVIII of laws passed at the lastiL'egislature, which makes it a question, whether there are any such things as Town? Boards of Health existing anywhere in Connecticut. . The language of the statute is as follows : . _“ All town boards of health shall be abolished when this act takes effect." The act was approved June 30, 1898. .0 Terrible Diphtheria. “Norwalk is threatened with an epidemic of. diphtheria. numerous cases having appeared.’ We copy the above paragraph from the New Canaan Messenger of this morning, where it appears as the first article under its editorial head. The most serious fact connected with the . subject is its lamentable truth. Dr. Tracey called on the Gamma yester- day and made statements showing that our alleged Board of Health, Or other officials, are most culpably at fault for this condition. of very grave danger.- Dr. Tracey states, that on being called to the first diphtheretic case, that of the Kennedy boy, in Clark street, (in rearv‘of Grumman'Bros; store on Main street,) he at once " sent his official no-. tice, as required. by law, to the.secre- tary of the Norwalk Board of Health. He furthermore personally called upon the said Secretary, and described to him the terribly unsanitary condition it proved, fatally ill Lwith 'malignantf other children, as yet untouched. with the disease. These he ordered imme- diately removed. He found that, for some thirty-six hours afterwards, no attention had been given the place by the Board of (Health, when he went ‘ himself to a drug store in town and purchased disinfectants for the house, as he had bought medicines for the sick child, the parents being unable to buy either. The poor family mean,- time, in violation of his orders, had been forced to go out and in, and other. people had been permitted to visit the Stricken home. The Dr. finally got the. three younger children taken to their grandmother’s home on Main street ; but the isolation from the-dying boy was. not made in tinieto save the and the next he knew, the two'eldest of these three children thus removed, were taken down at the house of Mrs. Ryan, their grandmother. Even then, Dr. Tracey felt sure he could save the youngest child, and so ordered the grandparent to return the two sick children'back to their home on Clark street, where the oldest boy had died, and to keep the youngest and still well child, with;her. From ignorance rather than brutality,it is supposed, the grand- mother bundled ad the well two-year- old child, with the sick children, back to thepest-house on Clark street. The result was recorded in yesterday’s GA- is feared, fatally ill with the scourge; and worse than that, the grandmother, Mrs. Ryan, was yesterday morning taken down with a serious attack of the pestilence, and only the day before, or on Thursday, went to a house full of children on Main street, anddid the family wash there. Dr. Tracey states that he early called on a Town officer, who is also a member of the Board of Health, and entreated him to have this twO-year-old child put in some place of safety, either by the Town or Board of Health, but the only interest he could awaken in that official, was the reply that if be, Dr. Tracey, would hunt up some suitable place, where the child would be taken in and cared for, the bill therefor should be settled by the town. Dr. Tracey says be naturally thought that as he was giving all his professional services to these afllicted ones, and purchasing the needed medi- cines besides, without a hope of recom- pense, he could but think the reception his mission of mercy and humanity re.- ceived, was, to state it mildly. both very indifferent and unfeeling. Dr. Tracey has two more diphtheria cases at Cobble Hill. He gave prompt official notice to the Secretary of the Board of Health, as to these cases also, but so far as he can learn, nothing has been done to prevent the spread of the contagion in either locality, further than placing a police guard in the vicin- ity for certain houses, to warn visitors against entering upon the premises. In all these plague spots, the worst pos- sible sanitary conditions exist, the Doc- tor charges. yet no attempts a purifi-‘ cation, or destruction of the? isease breeding ’gerins havé‘been attempted by any one connected with any branch of our muncipal authorities. No wender the people here voted 552 to 14, for a City Charter. Q A TERSE TALES OF THE TIMES. The hard times must go. There will be a dance at the Casino, fto-night.

NEW Yonn, Aug. 5. —Dr. Tallmadge .boarded the Anchor line steamer Kara- mania and inspected the passengers. All are well. Dr. Jenkins has asked the quar—. antine commissioners to send transfer boats to take the passengers to the islands in the lower bay, where they will be bathed and washed. - Dr. Jenkins says that while he can find no evidence that cholera. exists or has existed on the Karamnnia he deems the circumstances sufficiently suspicious to hold the vessel and passengers until all doubts are removed. This morning ar- rangements are being made to transfer the passengers to the islands. The health of- ficer will hold the steamer at least five days. . The fears of some persons that the clerks from Italy and those to whom the'mail is addressed are liable to contract cholera and spread the disease throughout the country were set at rest by Assistant Post- master Gaylor, who said: , ‘ “All mails from Italy addressed to this country are forwarded overland to Havre, where they are disinfected and brought to - this country by the steamers of the French line. Vile never receive any malls by tramp steamers from Italian-ports. “During the plague last summer Dr. Jenkins took extra precautions, and al- though the mails had been disinfected in France they were again- put through the same course at quarantine. Ihavo never heard of any contagious disease being transmitted through the mails in this' country.” ' BOIES WILL NOT RUN_ AGAIN. He Is Opposed to Third Terms and Present Senatorial Elections.
