PNEUMONIA MENACEs CHICAGO.
Alarming Increase In Deat tbs Subject
of Health Bulletin.

CHICAGO. December 2s.-With pneumo-
MIA establishing new death record in Chi
cago and the county hospital so crowded
that patients are sleeping on mattresses on
the floor and less serious cases being turned
away, a serious problem confronts the Chi
cago health authorities.
The many varieties OF weather from which
the city has suffered during the past week
is blamed not only for the many pneumonia
deaths. but for the crowding OF the hos
pital IN another way. Within the last few
days an unusual number of persons, injured
by falls on Icy sidewalks. have been taken
to the county institution. and. though a
new emergency ward has been opened all
cannot be cared for properly.
Last weeks alarming increase in deaths
from pneumonia is made the subject of the
latest health bulletin. During the seven
Gays ending Saturday pneumonia claimed
1S9 victims in Chicago, or 27 per cent of the
total mortality.

BANNER DAY,
Largest Amount Ever Received at the
Patent Office

Saturday was the banner day in the pat

cerned. During the day the office received
the sum of 81, ,s33 90 in cash, certified checks
or money orders from inventors or attor-
neys for inventors as fees for work done in
the office. This is the largest amount of
money ever taken in at the Office during a
single day. The average receipts are from
$5,OOO to $1,000 per day. The officials of the
office state that the conditions were abnor-
NAL during the days preceding Saturday,
owing to the Christmas holidays, and tina t
the receipts probably represent a day and
a half, but even then they are higher than
any days receipts heretofore.
