Epidemic IN New York No
Occasion for Alarm,
Doctors Say

NEW YORK. Nov. 11.--NewH
York and vicinity seem to be, get.
ting the hiccoughing habit. The
current brand ''hic" isn't fatal, as
far as can be- learned, but 1t isn't
funny either, for It apparently has
as little relation to wet goods as to
the dry spell.
AS a matter Of fact, the experts
won't attribute 1t to anything.
Doctor Louis /. Harris, director OF
ipreventable diseases in the Depart
ment Of Health. said the hiccough-
| ing situation had not been reported
to his office, and he therefore
doubted its existence.
Hospitals Differ.
The hospitals of the city reported
otherwise. Roosevelt Hospital said
hundreds" Of hiccoughing cases
had been treated there within the
last two weeks. The Beekman
Street Hospital declared It had
treated only a few cases, but vol.
unteered the Information Ii had
heard Of a hiccougEing wave in
downtown New York that amounted
almost to an epidemic, and Of I'M
precedented calls on druggists for
treatment.
No patients have applied to the
Presbyterian Hospital recently for
relief from hiccoughs, 1t was said.
but the attendants asserted they
had heard of many cases in the
neighborhood. Jamaica Hospital
has had only one case that re.
quired hospital treatment, but sew.
eral that were given clinic atten.
ton and sent home.
/ Doctor Harris said he would
start an investigation to ascertain
the extent Of the alleged hiccough-
/ ing, He added that a number OF
cases normally were reported al
| this time Of year, but said they
were no occasion for alarm.
Common In Fall
1T is a phenomenon we have
noticed in a more or less marked
degree for the last six years. he
said. AT first 1t was viewed with
apprehension, because hiccoughing
is one Of the symptoms that may
forerun influenza, but any fears
along this line have always proved
unfounded.''
In Mary Immaculate Hospital,
Jamaica, Louis Zangara, forty-six,
South Ozone Park, Queens, who
was taken there Friday, after hic.
coughing continually since Monday,
continued in q serious condition,
with all known medical treatments
falling to relieve him. It was said
X-rays are to. be taken OF his

mentary phrases. He then lied to
train officials, saying the ladies broke
the window. and the railway officials
naturally took the word of a reichs-
tag member against that of the
women.
The embassy demanded, through
the foreign Office, an adequate apology
from Korthaus. The foreign Office
today conveyed its own regrets to the
Americans and got after Korthaus.
In another case last week the wife
of Deputy Consul Smith was pushed
violently from a street car and by a
German officer In uniform, who was
impatient because she had not de-
scended quickly enough to suit him,
but diplomatic steps were unneces-
sary, as Mrs. Smith undertook her
own protest by kicking the gallant
officer vigorously in the shins when
she recovered her footing. The officer
dragged her to the nearest policeman,
demanding her arrest, but the police
man declined to arrest her.

FLETCHER'S LIQUOR YARN
MAKES HIT IN BELGIUM

By the Associated Press.
BRUSSELS. February e. Senator
Henri La Fontaine. speaking at the
annual dinner OF the Beigo-American
Chamber of Commerce, recalled that
Manhattan Island was purchased by
Belgian settlers for bottle OF whisky,
since when relations between Belgium
and the United States had always been
excellent. ~,
Henry P. Fletcher, the American
ambassador. in reply, said that with
prohibition in force 1t might be pos
sible In the not distant future again
to buy New York with q bottle of
liquor. The story. old in the United
States. was new in Belgium, and was
appreciated.
Senator La Fontaine said he be-
lieved the relationship between the
two countries justified the hope that
the Anne ricans would help realize the
Belgian plans for an international
city here.
