EPIDEMIC OF TYPHOID

ASCRIBE IT TO IN
PURE WATER, BAD ODORS FROM
THE CHRIsTIANA AND MOROCCO
FACTORIES.
The southwestern portion of VIII
mington is troubled with an epidemic
Of typhoid fever, and from the pres
ent indications the dreaded disease will
continue to remain in this city all dur
ing the Winter.
At the present time there are about
seventy-five cases throughout the city,
and IL il is not checked very soon there
will be twice that number before the
first of the coming year.
The direct cause OF this epidemic has
not as yet been determined by any OF
the physicians in this city. There are
several very plausible reasons why the
dangerous disease has reached in par
ticular the southwestern section Of the
city. Some OF the people and physi-
clans are OF the opinion that it was
bred from the odor which has arisen
from the Christiana river, caused by
the National Dredging Company stir
ring up the stagnant mud and water
in the work OF deepening the channel,
while others say there is no doubt but
that it comes from the morocco factor
jes.
In conversation with a prominent
physician yesterday afternoon he made
the assertion that the morocco fac
tories within the city were one cause
of the disease, while the other was the
spring atAFourth and Franklin streets.
In his opinion the reason the factories
causes the fever was that they get
thousands OF goat hides from England
which are not properly cured, and after
soaking for forty-eight hours a Shiny
substance comes to the surface which
no doubt has germs OF typhoid in it.
His other reason, in regard to the
spring at Fourth and Franklin streets,
ia to the effect that all the drain water
running southeast from the corner Of
Seventh and Broome streets empties
into this spring and the people within
that neighborhood drink q portion Of
it.
A vory prominent woman states that
very often the disease is bred by the
nurse, who is not careful, she allowing
the members OF the family to use the
towels and other articles which are
used in a sick room. She states that
the only way to keep the disease from
spreading is to keep everything clean
within the sick chamber and not to al
low anyone to come in or use anything
that has been used by the sick.
DR.. j. Paul Lukens several days ago
sent to the laboratory OF the Delaware
College for analysis jar of the water
from the spring at Fourth and Frank
lin streets, but has not as yet received
a reply. He states that the direct
cause OF the epidemic is in the water
OF this spring, as pearly all the cases
within the city are in that neighbor-
hood, and the city will never be rid o;
it until the Water Department has il
removed In one day last week the
carriages Of six of the most prominent
physicians throughout the city were
seen in a single square during the
morning, all of whom were attending
typhoid fever cases

MINGTON MAN AT THE HANDS
OF VICIOUS TRAMPS.

DIRE EXPERIENCE OF A WILL
MINGTON MAN AT THE HANDS
OF VICIOUS TRAMPs.
Samuel Fleming, of No. SO3 Button
wood street, while on his way to st.
Louis, where he had engaged to work
was murderously assaulted and robbed
by tramps in the vicinity of Harris
burg recently.
Some five weeks ago Fleming, who
was employed by the Diamond State
Steel Company, in the capacity OF an
iron worker. started. with two com
panions, by the names OF Comfy and
Kenney, of this city, for st. Louis. all
three of whom had engaged to work
in an iron foundry at that place. Hav-
ing plenty OF time at their disposal
aley concluded to freight it merely fol
the excitements. When within fiv,
miles OF Harrisburg, Pa, they were
rudely awakened from their sleep by
five tramps, who had entered the boa
car in which they were riding Will,
asleep. The tramps Immediately de-
manded their money, but on being re
fused, fell upon them with clubs. The,
resisted valiantly, but the odds wer'
too great against them, and seeing tha
they were losing the battle, they en-
deavored to break away, but Kenne!
was knocked into insensibility by
blow on the head with a club an,
Fleming was brought down by receiv
ing a pistol bali through the ankle
Comfy was the only one who escaped
and that was through miracle, as
perfect fusilade Of shots was fred af
ter him.
After rendering their victims harm
less the tramps then proceeded to ro
them. About Sl4 was secured fron
Fleming, but much larger sum wa
taken from Kenney. The shots fror
their revolvers and the sounds of tn
scuffle quickly brought a number q
the traimen to the scene, which cause
the tramps TO fee precipitately, bu
not until after they had thorough
plundered their helpless victims.
OF the two Fleming vas the NOR
seriously injured the shot that struc
him having caused a painful injur.
He was taken on to Harrisburg by th
trainmen, where his injuries were at
ministered TO in one OF the hospitals {
that city. After lying in the hospit'
for some days he was pronounced we
enough to be removed. He then can
home, where he is likely to remain, Z
he is compelled to walk on a crutch.
His two friends accompanied hi
home, Comfy having rejoined them
