RAT INFECTED WITH

Seattle, Wash, Oct. THE first rat
infected with bubonic plague to be
found in Seattle, with one exception,
since the scare of three years and nine
months ago, today was announced to
have been taken from the quarters of
the Miller Produce company.
Men in the city health department
found the animal dead last week. Care
full laboratory tests on guinea pigs to-
day demonstrated that this one and
possibly others were infected. This
morning workmen will begin razing
the building, a frame and corrugated
iron structure, and large force of men
were set to eombing all that part of
the city for a radius of six blocks for
other rats.
Announcement Of the finding of the
plague rat was made by DR.. j. E.
Crichton, city health commissioner af
ter he had completed careful exam
ination of the premises in company
with DIR. Eugene R. Kelly, secretary of
the state board of health, and DR.. B. j.
Lloyd, representative of the United
States health service.
DR., Kelly says he win take no action
unless there seems to be danger of
plague spreading to other points in the
state.
1t is thought that the United States
health officials also will rely on the
city health department to cope with
the situation, rather than to declare a
quarantine.
