MAKE SOLDIERS ILL
Allentown Camp Men Eat
Canned Bird and Suffer
From Ptomaine Poisoning
ALLENTOWN. Pa, Jan. 3.

hhbCN lO"N, Id., Jan -
There was n reminder of the embalmed
beef scandal of Spanish War days at the
United States Ambulance Camp, on the
Allentown Fair Grounds. last night, when
hundreds Of tho men became violently
i'll from eating canned turkey for sup
per. Many of the men were suspicious
of tho supposed delicacy and did not
touch II. a majority ate it with a
hearty appetite.
The first complaints were heard about
midnight, and soon there was n hurry
call for doctors. Hundreds Of tho mcn
suffered for hours with ptomaine poison
ing, but eventually all were relieved.
There Is also an outbreak of measles
in the camp. which has been annoying
to the officers for several days. -Four
sections were under quarantine yester-
day, and last night another section had
to be isolated. Health officer j. y. Butt,
of the cty's Health Bureau. is on the
alert to prevent the malady from spread
ing into the town. Precautions have
been taken, If necessary. to quarantine
the entire camp. The source of the out
break Is unknown, but II is supposed
