A NEW AFFLICTION.
The Latest Form d Caisson Disease
Which Spots Its Victims
Medical Explanation Of the Curious
AIlmsnt Which Affects Under
ground Workmea-osused
By High Pressure.

Much interest is shown at Gouverneur
hospital in New York city In the latest
form of caisson disease developed among
the workmen In the new Manhattan
bridge csisson. Frank Aes. the six man
in the case. was brought to the hospital
from the caisson. not only suffering Sc
we're pains. but also spotted all over
with large blackish patches. After he
bad been In the hospital . few days the
spots entirely disappeared.
The hospital physicians account foi
this strange development In this way:
When the men are put under pressure in
the caisson the blood is driven entirely
away from the surface Of the body and
brain back to the regions of the heart.
The arteries and veins become relaxed
and collapse. At the same time guam
tity Of air Is forced through the skin and
finds Judgment In the tissues of the
aesh itself.
When the men are taken from the
caiseon, unless they are decompressed
very slowly. the system Is unable to
return to Its normal condition before
the outer air is reached. When this Is
the case the blood still remaining In the
interior of the body rushes to the surface
and tears along the veins with fierce
rush.
The relaxed veins are subjected to
sudden strain and In some cases give
way. causing the blood to come to the
surface of the body in great clots, very
much like blood blisters.
The rush of blood is rendered the more
dangerous by the effort of the imprisoned
air to get free at the same time. This
has tendency to pull the veins and ar
teries out Of place. causing additional
strain.
Sometimes blood vessel will burst in
the ear from this cause. forming a clot
of blood just inside the ear drum. This
always results In deafness, and many
Of the workers In caissons become per-
fectly deaf.
The region that seems to be especial |
ly subject to such attacks Is the abdomen
and chest. 1t is here that the sandhogs.
as the men who work In caissons are
called. suffer the worst pain.
They are also attackedtn the legs and
arms. but these are the forms of the
disease 80 common and called by the
men themselves the bends, because OF |
the tendency one has to double up when
attacked by these cramps. Bleeding at |
the nose, fainting, Hght-headedness are
the usual symptoms, but sometimes |
bleeding will begin at the eyes.
Physicians say that half an hour, at |
least, should be taken in decompressing |
the men. II that is done, they say, there |
would be fewer cases of the disease.
So many men have been taken from
the Manhattan bridge caisson suffering
from caisson disease that the engineers
are having trouble In getting enough
men to do the work.
