Reported.

Warwick, X. T., Nov. l4-Five schools
in Coventry and one in Warwick were
closed yesterday and physicians in both
towns are busy inoculating children and

check the increase of smallpox, which
has become epidemic in the Pawtuxet
valley Nearly 1000 people were vac.
einated
Eight more cases were reported by the
state board of health yesterday, making
total OF 80 officially recorded.
DIR. Gardner T. Swarts, secretary of
the state board of health, said yester-
day;
"The great spread of the disease in the
valley is attributable unquestionably TO
the neglect OF teachers or school authori-
ties to enforce the law requiring that no
child shall attend a public school who
does not first present certificate show
ing over physicians signature that the
child has been properly vaceinated'
OF the afflicted people, DIR. Swarts de-
clared he had found only one who had
been vaccnated.
The pesthouses in both towns were
filed with sufferers, and arrangements
will be made to isolate the large number
for whom there are no accommodations.

fight, both Mayor Gaynor and Street
Cleaning Commissioner Edwards said
that they believed they had the situa-
tion well in hand There was no me-
cessity whatever, the mayor said, for
calling out the militia.
Henry R. Towne, president of the Mer-
chants association, called upon the may
or to-day and said that if it was neees-
sary to call for citizens to volunteer to
man the carts he could get all the men
needed.

and teamsters last night under the au-
spices Of the Socialist labor party Of
New York, it was declared by William

Just dues tomorrow our executive com
mittee will tomorrow night take action
that will cause more Inconvenience than
now exists
'We have $4,000 men in the teamsters'
mion," continued Mr.. Ashton, "and
hope it will not be necessary to call
them out"

the Pennsylvania legislature, urged the
strikers "to fight to the finish"
