The City Fathers Meet In Special Session
TO Act on the Appropriation for Mad
Dog Sufferers, Listen TO Lots OF Talk
aud Then Do Nothing.
Despite the generally accepted opinion
that City Council would take action on
the appropriation for the relief Of the
sufferers from the supposed mad dog In
East Wilmington, the city fathers at
their special session last evening did
nothing further than listen to lot OF
talk and then adjourn 1t was 8 10 when
President Bayliss gavel fell and all the
members were in their seats except Mr..
Stevenson of the Second ward. The
object OF the call WAS explained.
Counselor William f. Kurtz, who has
taken q commendRble interest in this
work, City Solicitor Robert q. Harnan
and DR. y p Wales. president Of the
Board Of Health and Drs A. E Frantz
and Willard Springer Of the board, were
present
The matter was brought bsfore the
Council BY Mr. 0 Neill OF the Frst ward,
who moved that the sum of $500 be
appropriated for the purpose OF sending
the victims to the Pasteur Institute, and
that 1t be taken from the incidental and
miscellaneous fund
City Solicitor Harman was asked rela-
tive to the right Of Council TO make the
appropriation. He said that it was not
matter of sympathy or charity bat Of
public health aud safety. II the Council
believes that the latter demands the
appropriation then 1t has the right to
make 1t. 1t is not a matter for the
individual to act on, but the Council as
body mlst consider the reault to the
public generally The power to provide
insane asylums or to care for the INDECENT
poor Is exercised because their classma
become q danger to the public II the
Council acts 1t will be within tue law.
DR.. Wales said that while some people
bitten by rRbid dogs escape, others die
horrible deaths. The only question to be
determined Is whether the dog WAS mad
and whether 1t bit the children
Dr. A. &. Frantz spoke OF the nature
Of med dog bite, and said that Il
child Of his had been bitten even by
supposed mad dog he should not hesitate
in sending It to the Pasteur Institute
At the request OF Dr. Springer, Mr.
Kurtz explained the result Of his inyss
tigatlon Of the biting, and added that
whilo he did not contend that the dog
was mad, he thought every precsuuon
was wise DR.. Springer then said that
the owner OF the dog claimed that she
could find no marks on the dog where It
had been bitten by any other dor. and
that after is had bitten the children i5
had taken q drink OF water Her idea
wss that other dogs did moot OF the
biting DR.. Springer said that he didn't
believe he would send one OF his chill
drsn to the Pasteur Institute as he had
little faith in il. he also had little
faith in csuterizing wounds which had
occurred hours before treatment.
