Discovery of Diseased Pension APP
pIfcant Causes Alarm in Capital.
Washington is greatly agitated over the
discovery of leprosy in the city. A
victim of the scourge has been stalking
the streets, eating in lunchrooms, riding
in street cars and generally rubbing ell
bows with the residents for FIVE days. BY
accident his condition was discovered
when a physician was called to treat him
for triiing illness. The plague victim
is John r. Early, whose home, is in
Lynn, y. c., and who as a veteran of the
Spanish-American war came to Wash
ington to apply for pension. He is 30
years of age and has wife and one child.
Upon his arrival Early rented a room in
a cheap clearinghouse on Pennsylvania
avenue. and then proceeded to see the
town. For days he moved around untram-
meled. On Friday, however, he called in
a physician, who, upon seeing the patient,
Immediately pronounced him a leper. The
local health authorities were summoned
without loss of time and hastily trans
ferred the victim 10 detention tent on
the outskirts of the city. There he is
held under guard. Apprehensive that the
scourge may have been spread by Early
the authorities are keeping a vigilant
watch for developments.
