How tuberculosis Is Spread

The germ of tuberculosis is spread from the
mouth, discharges of people and the milk of tuber-
culous COWS. The milk from tuberculous COWS af-
fects mostly children under five. Unless you know
your milk comes from clean dairy, free from tub
erculosis it should be pasturised before children
drink it.
Discharges from the mouth are made in spit
ting, coughing, sneezing and fine spray in talking
Them too, are the things that come in contact with
the mouth, eating utensils, bedding handkerchief,
etc. By always exercising proper tuberculous
patient can avoid being any danger to others.
In Vermont it is planned to send trained nurses
into the homes where there is tuberculosis to teach
the patients how to be careful.

Brokers Held Not
Responsible for
Dishonest Client
Court of Appeals Decides
Hudson & Go. Are Not Ii
able for Trust Funds Lost
by a Binghamton Lawyer

The Court of Appeals has reversed
the findings Of the Appellate Division,
Third Department, and has decided
that the Stock Exchange firm of c. /.
Hudson &; Co. is not liable for the trust
funds embezzled by William B. Carver,
Binghamton, N. Y, lawyer, and lost
in speculation.
The action was brought by Israel T.
Deyo, who was Carver's law partner
when the populations occurred. The
record shows that Carver had appro-
priated securities belonging to clients
of his firm and cash received by the
firm for clients amounting to more
than $4,000. With these funds he had
bought and sold through c. I. Hudson
g. Co., on margins, stocks of the aggre-
gate value Of nearly $10,0O0,000, cotton
to the value of more than $1,000,000.
and grain Of the aggregate value of
about 100000. The brokerage firm
received commissions of about $11, 900
on these transactions.
When Deyo first discovered that
Carver had been specializing with funds
entrusted to the firm he told the man
ager Of the Hudson firm that he had
decided to keep Carver in the law firm
to avoid scandal and that Carver, a
valuable member of the firm, had prom
ised to cease specializing. Deyo exact
ed promise from the stock brokerage
firm manager that if Carver again
sought to speculate the broker would
inform Deyo Carver did come back
for more action in the market, but
Deyo was not informed Of it.
1t was held by the Court of Appeals
that Deyo was bound, in retaining a
dishonest partner, to exercise reason
able care to guard against his further
embellishments.
