TERROR IN VIENNA.
Outbreaks of Bubonic Plague In Aus
tria's Capital Is a Source of
Great Alarm.

Vienna, Oct. 24.-The outbreak of
the bubonic plague at Vienna, which is
due to the experiments in culti-
walton of the plague bacillus, mas
spread terror at the Austrian capital.
Five cases, in addition to that of Herr
Barisch, the assistant in the establish
ment, who contracted the bubonic
plague while cultivating the bacillus,
have now occurred.
DR.. Mueller was considered an au-
thority on the plague. having been to
Bombay for the purpose of studying
it on the spot, and he survived all the
dangers there. The disease at Vienna
has assumed pneumonia form. There
are no boils, but each case is accom-
panied by high fever and blood spit
ting.
Extraordinary precautions have now
been taken TO prevent an epidemic.
The plague patients lie in an isolated
building, attended by DR.. Pooch, a vol
unteer physician, and by sisters of
charity. They are surrounded by
rope, across which nobody is allowed
to pass.
DR.. Pooch writes the prescriptions
and fastens them to the window pane.
The doctors outside read them and
have them made up. Then the pre-
scriptiors are placed on the window
ledge. whence they are removed by
those inside.
1t is feared, however, that the pre-
cautions were taken too late. Herr
Barisch was i'll for several days before
he saw doctor, during which time he
lived with his wife and visited wine
shops. The wife, who has now de-
vcloped suspicious symptoms, visited
friends, rode in public omnibuses, and
came in contact with dozens, of persons
at her husbands funeral
Vienna. Oct. 24.-Dr. Mueller, who
attended Herr Bnrisch. the surgical as
sistant at Prof. Nothnagle's bacte-
biological establishment, who died on
Tuesday from bubonic plague. died
Sunday morning.
