Besides typhus, New York has been
visited by two new and altogether
amazing epidemics this year. One of
them is sleeping sickness and the
other is that common and heretofore
insignificant malady known as "hic-
cups" AT least, so they are called,
but neither is running true to type
writes Frederic ]. Haskin in Chicago
News.
For the sleeping sickness, which is
now so prevalent in New York, is not
the same as the famous sleeping sick
ness of Africa, the cause of which is
well understood. Nor is the present
epidemic of hiccups in any way re-
lated to those gentle attacks OCCASION
ally experienced by everyone, more es-
pecially since the pocket flask has be-
come so popular. The new hiccups
are singularly malignant and persist
ent, and are not at all humorous. They
attack their victim every few seconds
during the day, and are not always to
be suppressed by deep breaths, drinks
of water, chunks of bread and other
well-known devices. Sometimes hic-
cup spasm lasts for more than an
hour, and the hiccup series extends
for weeks at stretch
Both epidemics. affecting hundreds
of persons, have completely baffied
New York medical men, and all other
medical men, for that matter No one
has been able to discover how or
whence they came, what to do for
them while here, or how to get rid
. of them. From the great medical re-
search laboratories of the city, such
as that of the Rockefeller Foundation,
have come various theories as to their
cause, none of which has proved con-
vincing.
The Monmouth inquirer., 1921-04-28
TWO Are Connected.

The most interesting one recently
advanced is that the two Affections
are in some mysterious and subtle
way connected-that prolonged at
tackS of hiccups are merely one of
the many irritating symptoms of Sleep
ing sickness; yet this is by no means
unanimously accepted.
The only fact accepted without chal-
lenge concerning encephalitis lethar-
gica, which is S. SIS impressive scien-
tific name, is that it does not spring
from the same cause as the African
malady of the same name. The latter
is known to be produced by the bite
of the tsetse fly, whose chief diet Is
the blood Of the crocodile.
Still, e. Lethargica must have a
cause, and the medical profession is
striving CALAMITY to supply it. Some
of its members firmly believe that it is
merely an after-effect of influenza, but
this does not help much, because the
Influenza germ remains to be identi-
fed. Besides this, many others among
the profession are equally certain that
influenza has nothing to do with the
new affiiction.
1t is all very bewildering, even to
the doctors, and now comes the hic-
cup epidemic to complicate matters.
Are hiccups a part of the restless as
pect of sleeping sickness, or are they
a manifestation of some new and in
dependent germ, working on it's own
erratic course? No one knows. We
do know that cases of sustained hic-
cups have suddenly sprung up both
In Europe and this country, and that
sometimes they occur alone and un-
accompanied by any other disease.
"Pathologically. this prevalence of
hiccups seems to be associated with
irritation of the phrenic nerve from
gastro-intestinal disturbance; from
neuroses, or from remote disturbances
of the central nervous system not yet
determined" says one authority, writ
ing for medical journal.
"In pneumonia or typhoid fever, hic-
cups, perhaps due primarily to the eff
fects of bacterial toxins, may be Sc
rious complicating factor, even caus-
ing death.

Votes Against Hanson Bill.

AT the recent hearing on the
Hanson measure, industry and re-
tail business showed that abolishing
OF the personal property offset would
cripple business in Wisconsin at a
time when restoration of confidence
was never more important to the gen.
eral welfare of the state The recon.
mendation of the taxation committee
indicates that arguments advanced by
business men from Milwaukee and
elsewhere made deep impression on
the legislature. Economy fairly
romped through the assembly on
tuesday Nothing could have been
more expressive of legislative response
to the public demand for retrenchment
than the decisive man. er on which the
house killed bills increasing appropri-
ations for farm organizations. 1t was
conceded on all sides that these votes
reflected the temper of the assembly
against boosted budgets, no matter
from what source requests for more
money may come. The amount of
money involved in the bills sent to the
legislative graveyard was insignificant.
as appropriations go. little more than
$1,000, In fact, but the attitude of the
house was considered highly signifi-
cant OF, what appears to be general
understanding not to allow Increased
appropriations. Should this rule hold
good as the session goes on. some of
the more important financial meas
nres, Including those providing funds
for the University of Wisconsin. nor
mai schools and other State institu
lions. may be slashed to the amounts
allowed two years ago.

Heads Milwaukee Detectives.

A grand jury investigation OF
the Milwaukee detective bureau
and a shakeup and reorganization
. of the detective force of the police
department doomed up at the close OF
the sensational battle between John L.
Sullivan, former captain of detectives.
and Mayor Daniel w. Hoan, in which
the mayor forced Sullivan to submit a
second resignation and to leave his Of
flee. AT the same time it became
known that the Sullivan control of the
detective bureau ceased to exist when
Detective Harry McCr0ry, who had
been reIegated to an obscure position
in the North side station district about
five years ago by Sullivan, was named
acting captain of detectives. Mr.. Nc
Crory will take over the captains Of
flee. Sulliyan's resignation and Cap
tain McCrory's temporary appoint
ment were the cllmaxes in day re-
plete with sensations. Late in the day
1t became apparent that only one part
Of the lid had been pried off and that
developments which may transpire
within the next few days may involve
other members of the detective force,
some of whom may come under the
surveillance of federal grand jury
for their alleged participation In the
illicit liquor traffic. Other designations
are expected, 1t was said In official cir
cleS. Some of these are expected as
the result of the departure of Sullivan,
while others are expected from some
members of the department who are
certain that they are under the surveil-
lance of the mayor and the members
OF the fire and police commission.
