CASE OF SMALLPOX APPEARS
ANTONI VACCA, LIVING ON THE UP
PER LEVEE, DISCOVERED
WITH THE DISEASE
1t Had Already Become So Thor
oughIy Developed That There Is
No Question as to Its Being Gen.
uine-Health Officers Prompt

Smallpox was discovered yesterday
morning in a building known as shack
No. II, on the upper levy, or settle
ment on the river front from the high
bridge to the railroad tracks, and was
Immediately placed under quarantine.
Acting Health Commissioner A W.
Miller ordered the patient. who is An
toni Vacca, removed to the pest house
on Dale street. The wife of the victim
of this disease. who was in constant
exposure, refused to go to the pest
house and still remains in the home
The assistant city physician, DR..
Frederick Leavitt, was summoned to
the place early yesterday morning He
diagnosed the case as smallpox, but
that there might be no mistake he had
DR.. Miller to assist him. There could
be no doubt as to the nature of the
disease, as 1t had reached the pustular
stage.
The inspector of contagious diseases,
III. c. Sinks, was notified and placed
John Stohr. one of the health inspec-
tors, in charge Of the levee. The chief
of police was notified and special police
were detailed to patrol the neighbo~-
hood and instructed to act under the
instruction of the health department.
The health department has ordered
all the people in that vicinity to be
vaccinated. Fears are entertained that
many people have come in contact with
Vacca and many people knowing the
nature Of the disease even now have
to be warned from the premises by the
police. All articles Of wearing apparel
and furniture that could not be prop
erly fumigated were removed and de-
stroyed.
DR.. Miller says that there is not now
any danger and the health department
has perfect control of the situation.
The use Of the city hospital ambulance
to convey Vacca to the pest house was
refused to the department, and the
patient was conveyed in a carriage
from a livery stable.
No one knows the origin of the case
and the authorities believe it was con-
tracted in st. Paul.
