SMALLPOX on Il Train.

The presence of a passenger suffering
from smallpox created CONSERVATION
Monday morning on an express train
of the New York, New Haven and
Hartford Railroad which left Hartford
at $40 O'Clock.
The train stopped at South Norwalk, +,
Conn, at 9 o'clock, and there cam
4board a poorly dressed man, who shut
fed into seat in one of the r ar cars.
He seemed 10 be i'll, and several of the
passengers noticed blotches on his face.
One of the passengers, evidently ply
sician. examined the man critically and
exclaimed
'.Why, this man has smallpox
The rest of the passengers stampeded
TO q forward car.
The doctor told the conductor Of the
case, and soon the latter, accompanied
by several brakemen, approached the
man and ordered him to go forward to
the baggage car,
The man did as he was bid, the con-
iuctor and brakeman following at a re-
speclful distance. On the way through
the train the smallpox patient .jostled
many we'll dressed pas elgers of both
sexes, who were unconcerned until they
learned of the real nature of the case.
Then CONSERVATION and dismay seized
them all. Several left the train at New
Rochelle.
The patient was finally landed in
corner of the baggage car, where he sal
on camp stool for the rest Of the trip.
The traiamen maintained a sort of
dead line about Is feet away from the
afflicted one
As the train hauled into the Grand
Central station squad of policemen
were awaiting its arrival With ihe
policemen were two sanitary inspec-
tors. The latter had been telegraph
ed to from New Rochelle.
When all Of the passengers had left
the train the patient was transferred to
a Health Department wagon and re,
moved to the Reception Hospital.
The patient was Charles Peterson, 81
years old and homeless, who had been
stopping in various lodging houses in
this city. He had gone to South Nor
walk last week, he said, in search of
employment. When he found himsel.
too i'll to work he concluded to return to
this city.
The health officials are investigating
the case Every car on the New Haven
train that had harbored the smallpox
victim was yesterday thoroughly fumi-
gated and disinfected The action of
the conductor in bringing the patient to
this city instead of casting him adrift at
one of the wayside stations, as several
heartless passengers urged him to do,
was highly commended by others on
the train who were more humane and
largely in the majority.
The health authorities declared yes
terday that there was very little likeli-
hood that the smallpox patient had
spread any contagion in the train.-N.
