sCoLoRED HOSE NOT A MENACE

Raltimore's City Bacterio1ogist Does
Not Believe They Are Dangerous.
The recent death of United States
Senator Cuslman K Davis. which has
4 been attributed to the wearing of col
ored hose, has become since that event
a. matter of considerable comment on
account of the different views of
physicians as to the likelihood of blood
poisoning having actually occurred
from this cause. 1t would seem that
there is much more APPARENT plausibtity
about the statement than scientific ac-
curacy, and that If the death of SEN
ator Davis was in fact due to this
cause chapter will have to be added
to the meteorological knowledge of the
present,
DR.. William Royal Stokes, city bac-
teriologist, is among those who doubt
the possibility of chemical dye becom-
ing the active principle in a case of
blood poisoning. IT do not know the
details of the illness and death of SEN
ator Davis" he said, "but I know no
reason to Justify the statement that
dye from colored hosiery could have
had that result. On the other hand, T
would say there is positively no such
Eerious danger involved certain sus-
ceptbility might result in a local skin
Irritation, which would not by any
means result fatally, and chemical dye
In contact with an abraded surface
might render that surface less impreg-
sable to pyrogenic bacteria, and might
thus become an accessory to the fact
of blood poisoning, but that the germ
of the malady existed originally in the
dye and that blood poison followed it's
absorption by the system is to say the
least, highly improbable, If not impos-
sibIe. Blood poisoning results from a
distinct germ with which the system
must become inoculated. That germ
does not exist in chemical dye, and, as
say, the dye could not possibly do
more toward producing this malady
than the indirect assistance of render
ing cut or wound susceptible to the
microbe-
ut is a matter of common observa-
ton that skin eruDtions are produced
by certain varieties of dyed wooden and
cotton fabrics, but these are mere local
affections and far different from an in
oculation, which might be expected to
result fatally The most severe poison
ing with spend it's force on localized
inflammation, and local application is
all that is needed to restore a healthy
condition of the skin. The wearing of
coiorea hosiery might produce such an /
affect as this, and I have no doubt |
that there are some peculiarly suscep-
tible to such local irritations who have
found the wearing of these articles i'm |
possible without some suffering and |
certainly great inconvenience. For the /
great majority, however, who are not |
thus affected I know no reason why |
they should fear harm from even the |
most gaudy hose.
"Closer investigation, 1 am sure, will |
bring to light another more scientif- |
cally probable theory as to the cause |
of the fatal illness of Senator Davis. |
Certainly there is no scientific founda- |
tion for the laying of the blame on
chemical dye. From The Baltimore |

tainment was given at the Dwight Place

singing tenor in the quartette, also
showed SURPRISING qualities as must

solo composed by Mr.. Burke; Thomas
J. Bryant, bass solo, Rocked in the
Cradle of the Deep and j. D. Halni-

at the hotels. lodging houses and

the city for various points the day
after their arrival, al thus far the
men have all been taken care of after
a fashion. A Duluth man has pro-
posed that hotel be erected in this

that it be a house of 800 to 4OOrooms

Quite 4 Severe Test.

The Broadway bridge was SUBJ
jected to about as severe a test
Wednesday afternoon as it ever will
be- with the ordinary traffic over 1t.
The Little Falls Granite company
brought in one of the large blocks
OF granite which will be used as the
second base of 9 monument for a
Minneapolis party. This stone is.
estimated to weigh seven tons, and
was hauled on Il large wagon built
especially for that purpose. The
combined weight OF the stone, wag-
on, and the ak heavy horses hauling
it with the heavy chains and rigging
il estimated at fully eleven tons.
Nearly the entire weight of the
stone rested upon the two hind
wheels of the wagon, so the weight
was not very equally distributed,
hut the bridge stood the strain upon
it without the least sign of giving
way, notwithstanding that the
roadway being uneven caused con-
siderable vibration. The east side
approach, however, seemed to be
loaded to it's utmost capacity, and
some of those who watched the load
going over it expected to see it give
way, but it didn't. The repairs on
the bridge are not yet completed,
aud when the rods that are now
J. ose are frightened up, 1T would.
without doubt, stand a much more
severe strain than that put upon it

ably less than the amount appro-
priateds
