DISPOSITION OF lEPER
PUZZLES BAL LTIM0RE
Victim of Dread Disease Quarantincd
in Box Car on Siding.


per, George Rossett is in worse
predicament today than on any of the
seven days he has been living in a
box car along the line of the Baltl-
more and Ohio railroad. The railroad
gave up the proposition of disposlng
of him, and today the city Of Balti-
more turned the man over to the
county authorities.
Rossett is still In his box car at
Golden Ring, seven miles out of Bal
timore, waiting for somebody to do
something. The railroad, the state
of Maryland and the city of Balti-
more were undecided for days. Now
Baltimore county Is undecided. The
suburban administration will feed
Rossett and the railroad will let him
occupy the car on the siding. The
city and state health officials have
not yet heard of any place to which
they can send him.
Efforts to make Rossett's stay on
the siding as pleasant as possible un-
der the circumstances have been made
by the railroad. A large red cush-
ion from a caboose was handed to
him yesterday by a brakeman. and
this he has utilized as a pillow at
night and a seat during the day.
The county commissioners, after an
Interview with George ID. Penniman.
counsel of the Baltimore and Ohio
road. decided to take over the en-
tire care of the man until he is NOV
ed, and will from today furnish him
with the necessary food and clothing.
He has tub of water and an abund-
ance OF food in his car.
The railroad cannot move Rossett
east, as Philadelphia will not let him
pass. nor can 1t send him west, as
| Cumberland, Nd, objects.
