On arriving at Mason the prisoner was

THE EPIDEMIC AT THE PRISON.
Over Thirty Convlcts and Several Keepers
Sick With Typhoid Fever.

JACKSON, Mich, Jan. Prison Physician
W. II. Williams this morning said, relative
to the cause of the epidemic of typhoid fever
at the State Prison, that he believed he
knew the exact cause of the disease, but
would not say what it was. The Board of
Health is making thorough investigation.
The food, milk and water used a. the prison
are being analyzed and the matter will be
sifted To the bottom. The hygienic ar
rangements have always been carefully at
tended to- and the past year health record
OF the prison was better than that of any
other IN the United States. Although there
are over thirty sick with the disease in the
hospital they are very comfortable, and
those who first came down with the disease
will soon be able TO go TO work again. A
large majority of the prisoners sick are
those located in the west wing, where
they found a defective trap, but the Doc
tor does not think that was the real cause.
The Board of Health entertain suspicion
that the milk is the cause of all the trouble.
and the milk supply has been stopped.
Several of the keepers have been taken
down with the fever in the past two days.
