LEPRosY CASES IN WISCONSIN.
DIR. Wingate Called to Investigate Some
Alleged New Victims.

Alleged New Victims.
Milwaukee, July 5.-Dr. Wingate sec
rotary of the state board of health, has
been called to Wausau to investigate
several cases of leprosy which are sup
posed to exist among some Norwegian
immigrants who have lately arrived
there. Should the cases prove to be true
leprosy there will be. DR.. Wingate
thinks, little cause for alarm. Many
years ago there were thirty cases Of
leprosy in Wisconsin, all brought here
by immigrants from Norway. At the
present time there are less than half a
dozen cases In the state outside Of those
which will be investigated at Wausau.
OF these two are in Dane county and
two in ST. Croix county.
All cases of the disease which have
appeared i'm the state have been brought
here from the old country by Norwe-
gian immigrants. In the cases which
have existed in Wisconsin the persons
afflicted have been sometimes supported
by themselves. and sometimes havebeen
boarded i'm the town where they lived.
In spite of this exposure the state board
of health has no record of any cases
where the contamination has resulted
in giving the disease to anyone living
here. Therefore, while the state board
will keep a close watch on the new
cases. no fear Of any spread of the dis
ease is felt

instead of the deafening uproar that

was that of a novel and complete in
