SPREAD Of
THE DISEASE
Smallpox Has Broken Out In
Rocker.
SEVERAL PERSONS ILL
Startling Result of County Physician
Sheerin's Investigation
Today.
SEVERAL PERSONS ILL

DR.. p. j.. Sheerin, the county physician,
went down to Rocker his morning and
investigated some 'rumors' set afloat in
the city last evening to the effect that a
case or two of smallpox had made it's APP
pearance there. He found the rumors
to be we'll founded, for in four families
the disease had broke out. 1t started
in the family of Dan O'Brien five weeks
ago, at which time Mr.. O'Brien's 5-year-
old girl became i'll. A physician was then
called. but it is claimed that as no erup-
tons had yet made their appearance he
could not give the case proper diagnosis.
Since then a 17-months'-old child of Mr..
O'Brien has been seized with the disease
and is still sick. O'Brien is a miner and
works at the Little St. Lawrence mine.
Last night a man named Lindsay, VINO
boarded in the house kept by j. j. Bel
liveu, was found to be suffering from the
effects of the disease and was taken to
the pest house. Mrs. Belliveu and two
of her children are just recovering from
an attack of the disease.
Nellie Griffin, Is years old. was taken
down last night, and this morning a boy
named Charles Jones, Z or s years old,
was found in the public school of the
little town with eruptions all over her.
LIZ. oneefMl OIueIeu the ScHOOl ulScOH-
tinued for the present. When the other
pupils learned that Jones had smallpox
a stampede occurred.
Several children residing in Rocker
have been attending a school in this city
mot a public SCHOOL,, but at noon the in
structors We're notified Of the appearance
of the disease and the little ones We're
sent home on the run.
DR.. Sheerin reported the result of his
investigation to the county commission
ers and the latter called upon County At
torney Connolly for advice regarding
their duty in the matter. Heretofore
they nave willingly dom what they could
to prevent the spread of the disease and
stamp out the case or two that had al
ready made their appearance, but they
believe the whole business belongs to the
city proper and should be handled by the
city board of health.
Late this afternoon Chairman Clark
of the board consulted the mayor on the
nropoSiti0n.

Sandon, b. c., say a strike in the SLOGAN
country has reached the crisis and the
Silver-Lead Mine Owners association has
commenced importing Italian laborers
from the Pacific coast states. The first

the Payne mine. The striking miners aeU
excited over the arrival of the new mine
workers. but no violence was offered to
the latter When they appeared here today.
The trouble between the mine owners
and mine workers is of six months stand
ing. Upon the adoption of the new eight
hour law, the mine owners reduced wages
from $3.50 to So per day, the miners re-
fusing to accept the reduction. There
have been many conferences, but neither
side would yield and the mines have been
entirely closed down during the cOntro-
versy.

NO AGREEMENT WITH CANADA.

ALL HOPE THAT THE JOINT HIGH COMMIS-
SION WILL MEET AGAIN ABANDONED.
Washington. May 9.-AIl hope OF reconvening
the Joint High Anglo-American Commission in
August has been abandoned. After having made
good headway at the meeting in Washington. as
was thought at the time toward drafting an
agreement an unexpected and insurmountabe
obstacle in the shape of the lumber and boun-
dary questions encountered. and the Com
mission adjourned to meet at Quebec in August,
with the understanding that In the mean time
the Governments Of the two countries you'd test
public sentiment. II was also hoped that some
of the difficulties In the way might be removed
by diplomatic negotiation. 1t has been demon
strated, however. that the temper of neither side
has yielded sufficiently to warrant the expecta-
ton OF any successful result attending another
meeting Of the Commission.
1t is said that officials here thoroughly
discouraged at the time-consuming manner in
which various propositions which have been put
forward are banded back and forth between
London and Ottawa.
