FORCED VACCINATION.
A Lively Scene ON an Emigrant Ship, with
Small Pox on Board.


A Lively Scene on an Emigrant Ship, with
Small Pox on Board.
New YORK, April 25....The steamer VIC
toria, of the Anchor Line, from London, ar
rived in quarantine with several cases OF small
pox in the steerage. The patients were re-
moved to the hospital and the vessel detained.
While the ship was being fumigated physicians
informed those on board, nearly one thousand
persons, 1t would be necessary for all who had
never been vaccinated to submit to the opera
tion. The cabin passengers and the larger
number of steerage people consented, but one
hundred and fifty of the latter, Russians and
Poles, made strenuous objections.
One Polander said "If doctors
came near me I will knock them down. {"
"That's right, that's right exclaimed sever
al of his countrymen. DR.. Smith requested a
woman to bare her arm to be vaccinated, when
she knocked the instrument out of his hand.
Finding $50 Of the passengers obstinate, the
doctors requested the crew of the steamer to
assist in enforcing quarantine regulations.
For time the scene ressmbled pandemonium.
The men shouted, the women screamed, and
to use the expression of one of the spectators,
"The air was blue with profane language"
The doctors and crew were hustled about
pretty lively by the Poles and Russians, and
the women seemed inclined to join in the
meelee. One woman told the officers rather
than have her two children vaccinated she
would knock out the brains of the doctor.
The crew OF the quarantine steamer were then
called upon to assist the combined crews and
doctors in renewed attack, and every person
who would not submit to vaccination on the
steamer was taken by force on board the
quarantine boat and conveyed to Dix Landing,
where they will be kept until all are vaccinated.
