HAS HIS
Thumb BROKEN
MAKING ARREST

In q struggle with man said to
have been wild from drink, who was
armed with a razor, Patrolman NeIs
Lybeck's right thumb was broken
between the knuckle and first joint
about o'clock last night. The man
had started to attack Patrolman
Muska, who, with Officer Lybeck,
was making the arrest, when the
latter intercepted. A stiff fight fol-
lowed In which Muska was struck
under the eye and Lybeck's thumb
was broken. The man was sentenced
to serve flve months In the county
Jail when arraigned this morning be-
fore Acting Recorder Somogyi.
While on his beat In the northern
part OF the city pale-faced, frail
woman ran up to Patrolman Muska
and explained that her husband,
John Kuruscoky, of 500 Pacific ave-
nue., had chased her from her home
with q razor. The officer, with
Patrolman Lybeck, started for the
house. The man seemed crazed by
liquor and defied the patrolmen to
take him, declaring that he would
chase them with the razor as he had
done his wife. Muska grabbed him
before the man could get the razor
from his rear pocket, where 1t had
been placed after his wife had been
run out of the building. Lybeck
closed In on the man and he was sub
dued. Muska started down the back
steps of the house with Kuruscoky
and the latter suddenly whirled
about, struck him and almost freed
himself Lybeck then jumped into
the melee and soon he and the man
were tumbling down the stairs.
When they landed at the bottom
Kuruscoky was under the officer and
was soon under control. Lybeck
found his thumb bleeding. but did
not know how it had been broken at
the time. He believes the man fell
against it In the fight down the steps.
The officer was attended by DIR. w.
H. Mccormick, Jr. He will not be
able to use the hand for some time
and may be relieved Of duty for a
few days

INCREASED NEED
FOR ISOLATION
HOSPITAL SHOWN

An increased number of conta-
gious diseases for the month oi
June, as shown by the report OF
Health Officer Willsey st a meeting
of the Board of Health last night, is
considered by the members that body
to be convincing evidence of the
need of an isolation hospitaj in Perth
Amboy. One OF the patients was re-
fused admittance at st. Michaefs
hospital in Newark this week and
other developments lead the COM
missioners to believe that some ac-
tion on the matter should be taken
mimmediately, 1t was reported.
During June there has been an
increase of fourteen cases OF scarlet
fever, seven cases of diphtheria and
fifty-two cases of measles Thirty
four were investigated by the in.
spector, while the tuberculosis pa
tients were visited by Miss Nelson
the tuberculosis nurse, who in.
structs the family In the care of the
patient.
A marked improvement has been
shown in the standard of the milk
during June, all OF the thirty-two
samples of milk collected being OF
standard quality. Inspections num-
bering 279 have been made of places
where food Is handled and sold
The result of the inspections show
that the restaurants, grocery stores
and meat markets were in a fair con-
ditfon and only minor violations
were found: Eight inspections made
Of the public market showed that
many Of the dealers were not hand
ling their goods as required by the
sanitary code.
Three ordinances, relating to the
bottling OF milk, building Of sta
bles and the keeping OF chickens
were taken up on their third and f.
nal reading, being adopted as
amendments to the code.
The report Of the committee on
vital statistics shows that fifty-three
marriages, 1872 births, four still
births and forty-four dea is occurred
during June.
Those present at the meeting were
Messrs. Overgaard, Smith, Petz and

JpcctdI by United Press wire
Washington, July 15:-Reports
from the revolution in Haiti and
Santo Domingo today were similar to
those Of the past six weeks.
Some firing" was reported at
Cape Haitian with conditions un-
changed. The federal forces were
still firing at Casenda, but the shots
were so few as to be almost insignif-
cant and as heretofore without cas-
ualties. The only serious feature OF
the revolution was the danger of q
food and water famine at Puerto
Plata.
