SWEEP
ALL OVER CHICAGO
Nearly $1,000 Cases Caused by
Impure Raw Milk.
STOPS ALL SOCIAL FUNCTIONS
Appeal Made to Public-Asked to
Give Up Balls Parties and Other
Amusements Until Scarlet Fever
Can BE Checked.

Chicago. = Extraordinary precau-
tions were taken to check the scarlet
fever and diphtheria epidemic in Chi
cago. A proclamation asking aid
from the public by the ~canceling OF
social functions, an offer Of assist
ance from prominent medical men,
the appointment of a commission of
physicians to help in an Aldermanic
inquiry, and the removal of central
police details to make room for the
Health Department, were among the
features which developed when it was
found that the record breaking
figures of the contagion were marked
again by high numbers.
Three hundred and fourteen new
cases OF scarlet fever, ffty-fve of
sdfphtheTia- and tWenty-fvevof measles
reported on the day the procla-
nation was issued.
1t is estimated that the total cases
of contagious diseases which have de-
,veloped in the present epidemic is
considerably in excess of 10000, and
may reach $4,000.
Commissioner of Health G. w.
Whalen issued a call to the people Of
Chicago to cancel social gatherings
and other public meetings for several
weeks in order to aid the department
In suppressing epidemic conditions.
This followed the official announce
ment that scarlet fever and diphthe-
ria cases reported indicate that the
epidemic has advanced appreciably.
Churches, Su~nday-schools and thea
tres were not included in DR.. Wha-
lens request.
The Commissioner explained that
while he desired the>assistance of the
public he did not believe it necessary
to so further than his request indi-
Gates. He declared that, in the opin-
ion of the department, it would not
be wise to order the closing of any
public schools, as the new medical in
spectors were doing competent work
toward preventing the spread of any
disease through that source.
Records of the Health Department
show the present epidemic to be one
of the most serious the city has
known. The records show that the
number of cases of scarlet fever in
the last our days vastly exceeds the
total for the whole month Of January
in a normal year.

WESTSFUELF FAMINE WORSE
North Dakota Suffering From.
Cold and Starvation.
President Roosevelt and the Inter
state Commerce Commission
Urge Roads to Send Relief.

Washington, D. C.~-The President,
tho members of the Interstate Com
MERGE Commission and the Congress
delegation from North Dakota are
gravely concerned over the fuel
famine in that State, which shows no
signs of abatement and which is en-
failing such suffering that the people
are growing desperate. Towns where
there is absolutely no fuel, the Their
mometer is from twenty-five to thir-
ty-eight degrees below zero and mail
and railway communication with the
outside world is completely shut of
are besieging the Interstate Com
merce Compassion, the President,
and their representatives in Congress,
by telegraph, to afford them assist
a1ce at any cost.
In come instances even Geographic
communication is cut off, and mes
sages have to be carried ten or TWEEN
ty miles across the snow covered and
wind swept prairies to the nearest
open telegraph Office. Such was the
case with III telegram received. It
comes from the Commercial Club, of
Maxbass, and was carried across the
open prairies ten miles to Eckman.
Maxbass is a small town on the Great
Northern Railway, close to the Can
adam line and a little west of mid
way between the eastern and western
boundaries Of North Dakota. This
message reads:
Situation unchanged. Two coal
cars (snowed in) between here and
Towner. Conditions grow more des-
perate every hour. Wire communica-
ton cut off,"
From New Rockford, on The North
ern Pacific Railway, comes the follow
ing message:
Fuel situation desperate. The
railway on this branch not making
any effort to-day to relieve us. Have
had no freight this year, no Llail for
twelve days. People desperate. Will
burn railway property for fuel if
relief is not forthcoming within forty
eight hours"
Other information which reaches
the Interstate Commerce Commission
indicates that President hill, of the
Great Northern Railway, has about
thrown up his hands," has grown
discouraged and abandoned the eff
fort to relieve the freezing people of
North Dakota.
An early appeal for relief by the
Federal Government was answered by
a dispatch TO the Governor of North
Dakota, asking if it was not possible
for the State to afford relief. To this
the Governor replied that the rail-
ways were doing everything possible,
meaning, apparently, 10 imply that he
knew of 20 way in which he could
render assistance. Z
The Interstate CommerceSCommis
sion, by direction Of the President,
has twice t~elegraphed to the presi-
dents of the Great. Northern and the
Northern Pacific Railways, urging
that everything possible be done to
relieve The situation, and assurances
have been given that the requests
will be needed; but the situation re-
mains unchanged, thousands of peo-
pie are menaced by the constant dan
ger of freezing to death, and the rail,
ways seem powerless to relieve the
/ conditions.

all these things when you once be-
