THE NEWS OF THE DAY
TUNED UP FOR SATURDAY'S DELAWARE RIVER
TYPHOID AT DREXEL HILL
PUZZLES HEALTH OFFICIALS
Twenty-two Cases Reported and Vari
ous Causes Ascribed ns Source.
Drexel Hill Is In tho midst of u typhoid
epidemic. There have been 12 cases re
ported so far, and the patients are being
treated In Philadelphia hospitals. It has
been rumored that theie has nlso been
one case of scarlet fever.
Tho typhoid epidemic Is the talk of
this nnd surrounding towns, and tho resi
dents seem at a loss to explain It. Con
taminated milk nnd the Springfield water
have been mentioned ns possible causes.
One man hero has suggested that tho
epidemic was caused indirectly by the
war In Europe It was explained that
tho Inrgc amount of gunpowder which Is
contluunIl being exploded In ICuropo has
caused n deluge of rnln there, nnd the
dry weather here has followed as a mat
ter of course. Such waim and dry
weather nt this time of the year was
declared to be unhonlthful.
Many are inclined to doubt that con
taminated milk Is the cnii'e of tho ty
phoid, and It was explained that there
would have been moro cases If the epi
demic had spread through the Spring
field water, which supplies the whole
surrounding country.
Many Delaware County towns have had
the scare. Contrary to current reports,
Gnrrettsford, the next town to Drexel
Hill, Is practically free fTom typhoid.
The children In the Garrettsford school
are being carefully watched, and every
means of precaution Is being taken to
prevent nnd check the spread of the
disease. Health officials visited Drexel
Hill yesterday and ordered that several
cesspools bo pumped out. Milk Inspec
tions nnd other precautionary measures
have been ordeied.

BERLIN REPORT OF SINKING
BRITISH SHIPS IS DENIED
Captain Boag- Says There Is No
Danger in South American Waters,
Reports from Berlin that tho German
scout cruiser Karlsruhe had sunk seven
British merchant vessels off the coast
of Brazil were branded as false by Cap
tain Hour, of the British tramp steam
ship Warley IMrkerlng, upon his nnlvnl
hero today from Santos nnd HIo Janeiro.
Captain Boag said that the only Geiman
warship reported to be In South American
watert", when he loft there early In -'ep-tember,
was tho Dresden.
Few, if nny, Biltlsh skippers, were de
terred from starting voyages because of
tho presence of tho cruiser. Captain Bong
said. Ho said that he had no feais and
dining the voyage he did not see n war
ship of any description until he arrived off
tho Philadelphia navy yard.
The reported activities nf the Karlaruho
have caused a rise In marine Insuianco
rates to and from South Ameilcan ports.
The fact that the British steamships
Hyades nnd Bowes Castle, sailing from
Braxll, aro long overdue Is taken as nn
Indication that they have been captured.

The crying need of your
