DISEASE STRICKEN.
rHB HORRIBLE RAyAGBs OF SMALLPOX
IN SAN ANTONIO.
Victims Dying by Hundrsds-Rysn the Nurses

Scene.

SAN ANTONIO. TEX, February 1s-
Travellers arriving here from the Lower
RIO Grande report that the rsvsges Of
smallpox in the infected district have been
terrible.
The district extends in from the river
about 90 to 75 miles, and ita limits, owing
to vigorous quarantine by infected towns,
are very clearly marked.
The pest has been raging for some weeks,
and has been very violent in the small
towns. Outside, however, OF the settle
ments aud beyond the reach OF phJ sicisns,
its ravages, considering the email popula-
tion, have been sppall'ng. The ranches
ARE LARGELY POPULATED
by Mexican herdefs, trailers ar d vsqueros.
These people have never been vaccinated,
and seem TO object TO il "a a sort Of tly log
IN the face Of Providence. They are ex.
tremely fatalistic, and believe that il God
intends 10 slsy them with smallpox 1t will
be done in spite of human precautions.
Const quently they have little uee for the
lancet and virus
IL is asserted that during the present
epidemic that victims bave. like flee, been
stitlsd in their filthy surroundings Pan
ic-stricken relatives and friends have been
able to give them bat little assistance. In
some localities the disease has been 90
universal that there have been none left 10
nuree the sick. 1t is the disposition OF the
ranch hand, when sticken, TO lie down
aHd tough it ont" and in eight cases out
OF ten he fails. Upon The haciendns
THEaE Is no SANITATION,
a limited mtdicine-chest, and n general
disposition to sliow things TO take their
course. Oat upon the ranges, far from
any babitatioB, dwell tie eteep herders.
They have no tents nor shelter Of any
kind. When one is attacked he crawls TO
the nearest water hole, pulls bush over
his loathsome face 10 project it from the
insects, ard waits for death. In the past
six weeks many of theee people haYe died
in the brush. The passes along the lonely
roads occasionally gets a Whit from their
decsying c0rpses, or locates them by the
clowd Of yellow vullures srOoping down
to the feast.
A gentleman Just in from an overland
trip from San Diego, Duyal county, says
that he
PASSED ONE RANCH
where there had been $50 people at work.
Out of these l47 had been seizsd, and Of
these 60 per cent. died. The business Of
the conc IN had come TO sland.still.
There was no one TO cook, no one 10 at
tend 10 the sick, no one 10 care for the
horses. and no one TO ride af,er the stock,
which bad scattered in every direction
through the brush, and had drilttd for
miles. The disease is confined entirely to
Mexican sections. Several Of the younger
physicians OF San Antonio, who have just
learned Of the state Ct affairs, speak OF
taking medicines to the afflicted sections
and contributing their efforts to bettsring
the condition Of the sick.
