FAMOUS in DEATH
TETANUS EXPERT DIES IN
AGONY.
DR.. Peasden. Of Chicago, Craved Fatal
Drug When He Saw End-Proved
knowledge Of Disease.

CHICAGO, Dec. 27.-Himself In tht
agonies OF the terrible disease, DR. JOSEPH
Peasden, known as the greatest expert in
he country upon the subject OF tetanus
Indicated by signs to physicians at his bed
side that his recovery was impossible
The attending doctors had believed thai
lie would get well. He died last night.
proving his right to his fame for expert
knowledge.
At the same time that he diagnosed his
own condition as necessarily fatal DR.
Peasden made motions with his hands that
showed that he desired a drug to end his
life. Injured as they were to the su aferines
of others, the urgeons hesltated befor
the mute appeal Of the man OF science
who knew probably better than any one
about him how terrible would be his suf-
fering and turned away foe fear that they
might grant his request.
When he realized that the law, writ
ten and unwritten. would not permit his
fellows to end his sufferings, DR.. Peasden
resigned himself to the care Of the nurses,
who did all that was possible with sooth-
ing lotions to quiet his pain.
There is great interest in medical circles
here in the case, owing to DR.. Peasden's
indication that the attending physicians
were wrong in predicting probable recov-
cry. It was pointed out that, If DIR. Peas
den lived. he would lose his great reputa-
ton as a tetanus expert. whereas, II he
died, it would prove his fame.
DR.. Peasden, who occupied a foremost
position with a large packing firm, was
suddenly stricken with acute lockjaw on
Christmas eve, while arranging a Christ
mas tree for his children. It resulted from
a compound fracture OF the nose. sustained
a week ago. DIR. Peasden was going
through a dark passageway leading from
his laboratory to another part of the estab-
lishment, when he fell down a short flight
OF stairs and struck his nose on a board.
The hurt caused an abrasion OF the skin,
and the germs of tentanus infected ii.

CHICAGO, Dec. lS.--In q lecture on
Immigration" to the Gemanic Society
Of Chicago last night. Prof. j. Hanne
Deiler of Tulane University. New Or.

Every great catastrophe. no matter
what it is or where ii is, attracts rather
than repels immigration, The most ter.
rible yellow fever epidemic that ever
afflicted New Orleans was in 1853 and
it was followed by the landing in 1854
Of 10000 German immigrants, the great.
est number that ever landed in the city
in any one year"
He suggested that the president be
authorized by the congress 10 designate
the states and territories where immi.
grafton is needed and allow immigrant
ships to land only at ports contiguous
to such districts.
