TYPHOID ON EAST SIDE
Tcnements an 9th and 65th Streets
Send May Cases to HospitaIs.

The outbreak of what seems to 10 serious
epidemic of typhoid fever in the upper East
Side has caused much alarm in medical circles
for. although the presence of the disease has
been known for more than two weeks. no ap-
parent causes have been discovered to which it
can be attributed Most of the cases have been
confined to the Suburban tenement houses that
occupy almost the entire block bounded by 9th
and 65th streets and First and Second avenues
Presbyterian and Flower hospitals, which are
situated nearest the infected district, have been
compelled to send patients to Bellevue and
Roosevelt hospitals Yesterday there were
thirty-eight cases in the Presbyterian Hospital
and six patients suffering from the malady were
sent to Bellevue. Conditions we're the same at
Flower Hospital where forty cases were under
treatment yesterday. Four were transferred to
Roosevelt Hospital Ten more cases were
brought to Bellevue last night.
The first cases were reported about two weeks
ago. and in the interim there has been an alarm
ing increase in their number. In one instance
six members of the same family were taken TO
Flower Hospital in one day. In addition TO the
cases that have been removed to the hospitals
many persons receiving treatment in their
own homes.
Roosevelt Hospital reports twenty cases %
the disease, about equally divided between
adults and children, from scattered locations,
rather widely separated. There are no cases IN
the ]. Hood Wright or Harlem hospitals.

Five of the United States lifesaving crews OF
the Jersey coast between Sandy Hook and Long
Branch had their work cut out for them yester-
day in rescuing stormtossed pleasure seekers.
The gale and the heavy seas it kicked up proved
hard on power boats which had ventured ocean
ward.
The Sandy Hook lifesaving crew went out to
the assistance of no less than four such disabled
boats and in two cases had to land the pas
sengers and beach the boats the east shore Of
the Hook. The Spermacetti Cove crew assisted
two boats the bay side, one being the G. L.

At o'clock in the afternoon the Seabright
crew put out to sea to look for power boat of
large size with a number of persons aboard
which had been sighted by the Monmouth Beach
station. The Monmouth Beach and the Long
Branch stations also sent out their crews, and
all three lay alongside the disabled boat
The Long Branch crew returned to their sta
tion about g o'clock and reported the disabled
boat the sloop yacht Avoca, of Erie Basin
Brooklyn, Captain Peterson and eight pas
sengers. The steering gear had broken. and all
the captain was able to do to drift before
the wind. The Monmouth Beach and Seabright
crews started to tow the sloop up toward the
entrance to tine harbor.
After a while the steering gear was repaired
and the sloop and lifesavers parted company
Within few minutes the lifesavers were sum-
moned once more. as the steering gear had
broken again. The nfesavers then took off the
passengers and landed them and the soop was
left to ride out the gale off the Monmouth Beach
station.
