How Some Mysterious Cases of Poison
ing May be Accounted For.


From, the Neto York Euening Post.
DIR. Cyrus Edson's attention was called
to the accounts OF whosesale pois-
ouing in Momence, ILL.,, where eighty-four
persons were made i'll, some fatally, by
eating dried beef. al have read them"
he said, land my opinion is that the trou-
bic was caused by ptomaines. What are
ptomaines? They are little basic bodies
or principles that We're discovered not
long ago by the distinguished italian Pro
fessor Salmi, which develop under certain
conditions not yet very well known in
putretYing meat Attempts 70 produce
them have not beea Very successful.
Eighty pounds OF human brains putrehed
for the purpose produced only enough
ptomaines to make a few experiments on
frogs. These proved That the poison acted
verymuch like theIudiah arrow poison, Gu
rare. Enough has heeu shown, however
% suggest 90 me than thig almost un-
known poison is ut the bottom OF most, II
not all, the mysterious poisoniugs we
have had from sbuFase, from cheese, from
canned salmon, and canned goods Rener-
ally, and now and tuen from ice cream
When we understand fjetter the condl.
tons favorable 10 the development of this
dangerous principle, We shall be able to
guard against IL. aIt4
"A very characteristic easa was that of
the poisoning OF an east-sithtamly from
eating sausage last winter Two on three
canned salmon poisoning cases We have
/ had here can be- safely referred, too. 10
/ that category. | don't think the canning
had anything 10 do with the development
/ of The poison. In every case I found that
the cans had been allowed 70 stand open
/ for some time In hot weather. The meet
characteristic case, however, was one /
I met with up IN Vermont. There was nm
I old farmer | knew there who had great
/ reputation for making very delicious and
/ very rich cheese;hut elgry once In a while.
/ lac told me, complaints would come that
/ his cheese had caused poisoning now aud
| then OF "a number ofpersuns. lie wns an
/ honest old fellow ana of am observing
/ turn. and IN the end be noticed that the
trouble always happened when he had
made his cheese especially itch by adding
the cream from his nights milking 90 the
mornings yield. After he stopped that
prHctice hp never heard of another ease.
Doubtless that practice made especially
favorable conditions FOR the development
of the pt0maiues.
