DR.. s. B. Miller, county physician,
has received information from Chey-
enne to the effect that there are only
four cases of smallpox in that city,
report previously made to him was an
alarming exaggeration, and he has now
| decided that there is no necessity to
declare a quarantine against Chey-
enne. The appointment of DR.. H. NJ.
Bennett to be county physician of Lar.
annie county also insures the energetic
enforcement Of the laws of health.
AS far as Hanna and Dana are CON
cerned. DR.. Miller has not yet deter
mined whether he will declare a quar-,
antine against these towns or not.
That the spread of the disease in this
state is approaching the Importance of
an epidemic cannot be doubted. The
| Cheyenne Leader a few days ago pub,
lished In its editorial columns the fol,
lowing:
SmAIIPox EploemIc.
DIR. r. H.. Reed, who has medical
Jurisdiction along the Union Pacific
from Rock Springs to Ogden, and who
came in yesterday to take his seat in
the house of representatives, informed
a Leader reporter that he had charge
Of thirty-fve cases of smallpox at the
present time, and he thinks that if all
cases in the state were reported it
would show that the epidemic had
reached Wyoming, possibly not to the
extent 1t prevails in some states, but
it was sufficiently near to warrant
strict precautions to be taken and all
preventives used.
. "A Cheyenne physician who has had
extensive experience with this disease
and given it much attention, says:
Regarding the present smallpox
outbreak over the middle, west and
south, the history of nearly one
hundred years ago promises to repeat
itself. In 1903 and 1904 throughout
the then settled portions of the United
States there was a very general cpl
demic of smallpox. 1t was a light form
and there were few deaths. In the
winter Of 1866 the disease was again
prevalent, only much more virulent in
its action. In the winter of 1908 the
death list was much greater.
$50 far as can now be ascertained,
the disease is more deadly, and as
fresh cases appear they are more Sc
rious. The outlook is not pleasant,
and it behooves the citizens of Wyo.
ming to protect themselves as best
they car against the Entertainments Of
this disease. Strict quarantine regula'
lions should be enforced and the usual
precautionary steps taken to prevent
further spread Of the contagion. The
attempt made in some localities to
suppress publication OF facts about the
disease is a mistake of the worst kind,
especially where there is so much trav'
ell to and fro between towns as there
is on the Union Pacific. The railroad
has taken all possible precautions in
this matter, and will gladly cooperate
with our citizens to avert the spread
Of the disease"

New Hampshire is not only summer

of wide renown.
Its mountains are known far and wide
for their grandeur. but they are no mote
widely known than its lakes, of which
few sections of the country have a great
er number.
Some of them, like Winnipesl ukee and
Sunapee, are of great area and renowned
fishing grounds, while others, Numbering
well towards a hundred. are of varying
size but nevertheless excellent fishing re-
sorts.
Every one Of New Hampshircs lakes l.
more than well stocked. with the choicest
varieties of every kind of fish, and in
variably their size is extraordinary
There is one very prominent and favor
able feature which makes the lakes Of
New Hampshire popular with the fishing
fraternity and that is the exceptional IA
cilities for reaching them. The Genera

NEGOTIATIONS SUSPENDED.
Vickers- Maxim cramp Deal for Bethlehem S,ec
Co. Broken OIL.

Philadelphia May Negotiations
for the purchase of the plant of the
Bethlehem Steel 60. by the Vickers.
Maxim-Cramp combination have been
broken off just when the gun and ship
building people seemed on the point of
acquiring the works. 1t appears that
the combination undertook to impose
new conditions which the Bethlehem
people would not submit to.
Pres. Linderman of the Bethlehem
Steel Co. admits that the negotiations
are ut an end. IAN | can say" said
Pres. Linderman. lis that the negOtia-
tions so far as we are concerned are
broken off and il was entirely on our
part"
A director of the Bethlehem Co. said
he could not predict whether any at
tempt would be made to reopen the
negotiations. but one of the directors
of the Cramp Co. thought that the V
would be resumed and that Il merger
was still possible.
Whether the transactions with the
Bethlehem Co. and with il the whole
scheme are off for good seems TO de-
pend upon the Nickers-Cramp direc-
tors. When told what has happened
they expressed great surprise. They
have been confident that all was going
through smoothly.
1t is believed that another offer VIII
be made for the Bethlehem stock.
