half the amount in holding the cleo

FIGHTING CONSUMPTION.
Further Chicago Crusade Against
Tuberculosis.

CHICAGO, December 1.-THE great
white plague. which causes more than
$500 deaths in Chicago every year. is to
be attacked in a new<and, for this city,
novel campaign.
Special departments for tuberculosis
were opened yesterday at the free dis
pensaries conducted by the Rush, North
western. Polytechnic and Hahnemann med
ical schools, the College Of Physicians
and Surgeons and the United Hebrew
Charities Dispensary.
The medical institutions were interested
as a result Of the activity Of the Chicago
Tuberculosis Institute.
The institute has been in existence for
three years and during that period its
work has been directed chiefly along edu-
cational lines. The appalling increase in
the death rate from consumption in this
city, which was 2l5 more last year than
II was the previous year-due, according
to Health Commissioner Evans. mainly to
lack Of ventilation in dwellinSS-aas
caused the institute to adopt vigorous
methods in combating the disease. The
victim Of tuberculosis. no matter how poor
he may be and regardless of the stage OF
the disease, will receive advice regarding
the outdoor treatment and diet and eXer-
else and medicine when 1t is needed.
Physicians specially qualified to dag
nose and treat tuberculosis have volun-
teered their services. The plan has the
support of the medical profession, in
