THE SMALLPOX IN HOBOKEN.

The alarming spread Of this destructive epidemic
IN Hoboken, Union Hill and the surrounding dis
trics continues to create increased excitement
among the people. Fifteen patients stricken down
with the disease, lying at the miserable tenn
porary hospital erected on Fox HILL IN the upper part
ofHoboken. Only two nurses employed by the city
authorities to care for these victims The Sisters
the Poor. who took charge OF this institution last
spring and attended the patients, were not hon.
Ored even with vote of thanks by the Common
Council, much less with an appropriation or money
TO defray the expenses incurred toy them at that
time. The result Is that tue unfortunate indi-
viduals there now cannot be sufficiently at
tended to. The German steamer Hansa has
brought fresh quota OF persons infected with the
contagion. -Four OF the crew were brought ashore
yesterday and taken TO the hospital, the company
agreeing to pay the cost OF caring for them. In
Union Hill persons have been carried away In three
dreds are lying In dangerous condition there at
present.
