The Dust Peril.

The deadly effect of germ-laden
dust upon the street cleaners of New
York city has been demonstrated by
an official medical examination, which
shows that third of the force are
afflicted with tuberculosis The
alarming announcement is made that
a New York street cleaner cannot live
more than five or six years if he re-
mains at the work. The men are ex-
amined by civil service physicians,
and must be declared free from or
ganic disease before they are placed
on the employment roll.
Subsequent examinations of those
applying for leave of absence on ac-
count of sickness revealed the fact
that tuberculosis is contracted dur
ing an average service of less than
five years. The revelations justify the
conclusion that street cleaning in all
the large cities where the dust is
allowed to rise is an occupation likely
to prove fatal to human life, and in
a short time. The man who accepts
such employment takes enormous
risks, and if aware of its dangers de-
serves to be enrolled in the ranks of
Carnegie heroes. The pity of it is that
the sacrifice of life in this occupation
might be to a great extent prevented
