Fifteen Long DAYS Without a Single
Case Developed.

Again-Dr. Hutton Suffers From
Vertigo, With Which he Has Been
Afflicted for Years He Already Has
Had Yellow Fever-OHciaI State
ment From DR.. Guiteras to the Effect
That There is no Probability of the
Dread Disease in Brunswick The
Citizens Want the Quarantine Lifted
Everywhere.
Brunswick Ga, Sept. Sturgeon w.
Fl. II. Hutton, marine hospital service, is
suffering from severe attack of vertigo
at his room in the Ocean hotel, as an
nOunced exclusively by your cor
respondent last night. During the night
the attacks We're so severe that DR..
Guiteras called in DR. Hugh Burford to
take charge of the case. This morning
he grew worse, but after dinner he raj
lied, and is now rapidly recovering. His
. physicians tonight are cheerful and be
lieve his speedy return TO good health
assured. Surgeon Hutton's illness natur-
. ally started a few rumors among some
Tightly people, but the emphatic state
ments of the doctors that there was moth
ing alarming connected with his case
quickly stopped these rumors.
OFFICIAL STATEMENT.
Owing TO the fact that a few ill-timed
/ and wrongly wOrded private kilograms
were sent out by some citizens, your, cor
| respondent has SECURED an official state
| ment. DR. Guiteras, the eminent expert,
| dictated the following to your correspond
ent in response TO request for an official
| statement.
Surgeon Hutton is suffering from an
Of
with an old ear trouble first contracted
during the war. When he first reached
| Brunswick he complained of this trouble.
| and five nights ago ii grew worse, until
| yesterday the attacks became more fire.
queat. II is a difficult case to diagnose,
but you can state very positively that
| II has nothing to DO with yellow
/ fever. The question of Surgeon Hutton
having yellow fever has never entered my
| mind. Surgeon Hutton has had yellow
| fever. He was in charge of the Mobile
| and Jacksonville epidemics, and it is
| rarely the case that person has the di-
sease twice He has no fever of any
kind. He has had these attacks for five
years past, off aud on. While they We're
| worse yesterday than before | can freely
say that he is much better to-day, and
have every reason to believe he will be
out in two or three DAYS"
In general interview regarding the
! case III. II ulbeIdS expressed regret lDdL
! Surgeon HuttOn's illness had become
known and that rumors should be abroad
He expressly desired the public to know
that he had no fever of any kind. The
| attacks have affected Surgeon Hutton S
head severely, and whenever he rises
from the bed his brain whirls and he has
to be held TO keep him from falling.
AS TO QUARANTINE.
DR.. Guitera could give no information
in regard to the quarantine being raised
on Brunswick, From his conversation
it was learned that personally he thinks
all danger over, but the surgeons are gov
erned in this matter by the wishes of the
citizens in neighbOring towns. Surgeon
Hutton was to cOnferWith DR. Drummer of
Savannah at Camp Hutton to-day
on that matter, but his illness prevented
He thinks until Surgeon Hutton resumes
his duties the matter viii be postponed
But that is only question of a few days.
| Surgeon Nagruder of Camp Hutton will
probably be detailed here for the present.
DR.. Guiteras is the only government Of
fetal here now He was requested to
come and investigate the causes Of The
| first case, owing to his ability and fame
as an expert. His work and researches
here have been exhaustive, and he is be
ginning to show signs of fatigue. He says
few nights rest will recuperate his
strength.

Iahse pest-hole, and these views are the
result OF lying correspondents from

by manufacturing sensational kilograms Of
a clty's misfortune. All this has been pa

-Four thousand people here are suffering

take their guns IN hand if necessary and
break down the inhuman barrier that
surrounds them, Fortunately this is
