Of rittsbnr?, and Has a Very Tight
Hold Upon the People Who Live
and Do Their Business Here.
DOCTORS ARE AT THEIR WITS' END
Id Their Endeavor to Control a Disease
That Is of a Host Stub
born Kature.
THE EAST USD A GREAT SUFFERER.
Work Tlst Xi Delayed to a Great Extent cy Sickness
immg Ecjlcyts.
"A rising temperature and a depressed
Iulse." That meaui "the prip" provided
there are seTeral other things connected
therewith; as, for instance, an ache that may
strike yon, either in the lee or in the head.
Bnt "grip" it is, and there are many thou
sands of people in Pittsburg and vicinity
-who are suffering from its effects. They are
wearied looking and they "feel bad all
over."
Hen of business go from their homes feel
ing chipper as the lark. When they leave
the cars, or their carriages, as the case may
be, they haTe a "stitch" in the back. If at
the same time there is a bad cold, influenza
troubles, or kindred complaints, then, that
is the grip. The grip is no imaginary dis
ease, for there are so many thousands of
cases in Pittsburg that there are physicians
who say that certain lines of their practice
have to be neglected in order that they may
attend to the immediate wants of those who
are sufferers from what they may term colds,
but that physicians know is a well defined
disease.
Xo Fart of the City Exempt.
There is no section of Pittsburg that seems
exempt from the grip. The center of the
city has its suSerers, and the East End has
more than its quota. Downtown hardly
seems to suffer so much as the outlying sec
tions of the city. There is a theory that the
working up of ground for the making of
sew streets may have an effect upon the
health of people who live near by. At all
events along Fifth avenue where they are
tearing up the ground to maker new streets
there is no doubt a great deal of sickness of
this kind.
Dr. Joseph X. Dickson has pronounced
views upon the grip. His theory is that it
is a germ of disease, and that it flourishes
in a temperature of from 45 to 70, its
best habitat, however, being in a moderate
temperature. Dampness of the atmosphere,
he said, coupled with just such a tempera
ture as Pittsburg has had during the winter,
made the conditions for the grip. He was
of opinion that the disease was now mora
virulent than ever before.
"There is one peculiarity about the grip,"
said Dr. Dickson, "and that is that one at
tack does not give immunity from another
attack. It is a disease that will hnnt out
the weak parts of the human frame. Where
muscles are weak it will find them; just as
it will search out all the twigs of the nerves.
The symptoms, or at least some of them, are
a sufiused face and eyes.
Gome of the Sure Symptoms.
"Again, and the main thing after all, is a
rising temperature and a depressed pulse.
Those are symptoms that cannot be found in
any other disease. They arc contradictory,
and only in my practice with grip cases
haTe I. found them. I don't know that in
all my years of practice in this city have I
seen so mjny cases of this character. The
epidemic of grip as we had it here last win
ter everyone remembers. It is worse now.
"To show how baa it is, I want to tell you
that I have been compelled to give up surgi
cal cases for iear that the patients would
suffer lrom the prevalent disease. And right
here I want to say that the grip is caused
purely by atmospheric conditions." The
germs are kept within the human reach by
sach weather as we have had. As you
know, there has been but little sharp, crisp
atmosphere. Clear weather, whether cola
or warm, will send these germs up above.
That's what Pittsburg wants, and when it
comes there will be no grip."
The effect of the grip is se'en and felt more
strongly in tne large business establishments
than in the resident districts. Many large
concerns are running short-handed owing to
the absence of their clerks. They are home
with the "grip." That excuse goes with the
proprietor or the manager, for the chances
are that he has been there himself, or may
be suffering from the same disagreeable dis
ease at the present time.
Oat In the East End.
Common report says that there are fully
1,000 cases in the East End. The East End
covers a large space of ground and various
classes of people, but the grip has made no
distinction. Trie physicians out there are
suffering, in proportion to their numbers, to
the same extent as the laymen, and it is no
uncommon thing for a sick call to be an
swered with the reply from the physician's
servant mat "tue doctor Has tne grip.
Eive of the members of the Highland
nvenne engine company are laid upwith
the disease, while classes in some of the pub
lic schools have been dismissed owing to the
fcickness of the teachers. There is hardly a
place where many people meet through busi
ness necessities that there is not a noticeable
absence of some who would otherwise be
present. Some of tha doctors in the, East
End, while telling their patients that they
must not be alarmed at the prevalence of the
grip, can hardly move about themselves,
and encourage their patients by remarking
that tbey themselves have only a bad cold,
and that it will wear away shortly. They
ometimes are more sick than the people
who pay them for their services.
Sufferers on Mio Soutluide.
Notwithstanding the high altitude of Al
lentown, Alt. Oliver and lit. Washington
the grip seems to have a firm hold on the
people over there. A visit yesterday to the
bills showed a large number of cases. A
short list of those who have been laid up
with an attack is as follows:
H. J. Alt and wife and Charles Alt and
wife, of 99 Washington avenue. J. G.
Charteuer, SO Washington avenue, the vell
kcown druggist, had a severe attack. E. T.
Schafiner, the real estate agent, 72 Wash
ington avenue. Jacob Smith and Patrick
Carlin, also ot Washington avenue, have had
severe attacks. Frank Kuss and wife and
' two children are laid up. They also live on
Washington avenue. Theodore Swartling
and wife and three children, 88 Wash
ington avenue. William Krebs, of
Beltzhoover borough, bad a severe 'attack:
but is recovering. His wile and three chil
dren are still laid up. George Sh&ier and
wife, of Beltzhoovor, also WillUni iteilen
and Sebastian Arnold, of Allen avenue, arc
sufferers.
Almost every house in Allentown has a
case of the grip either light or severe. One
physician said he thought the windstorm of
last week was the cause of the
disease being so prevalent, especially
in the hill districts, where the wind got
a fair whack at them. "A great many of
the cases reported are very light ones," said
lie. "I find that persons who had an attack
lastyearare very susceptible this year, and
a sudden change in the weather affects
them." Another physician thought it was
not so bad as reported. While acknowledg
ing that the grip was here, he thought that
not more than one in ten cases were the
'genuine grip. "It is getting to be the
(fashion now to have the grip, eTen if it is
the slightest cold imaginable," said he.
Rut the Musical League Takes No Action
on HI Alleged Boycott,
Milwaukee, March 20. The National
League of Musicians to-day discussed reso
lutions bearing on the charges of Theodore
Thomas' alleged boycott of Chicago musi
cians. They declare that, in view of another
impending importation of foreign musicians,
in violation of the rights and privileges of
American citizens under the alien contract
law; and in view of the Chicago Orchestra
Association's scheme of securing Theodore
Thomas and colonizing in Chicago his so
called orchestra recruited in New York and
European musical centers, and expressly
stating that in their contract with
Mr. Thomas no Chieatro musi
cians were to be contracted with
as regular members of his said orchestra;
and wtiereas, the Chicago Musical Society
denies the lack of capable performers on
any instrument, making importations un
necessary, and whereas, Mr. Thomas, as a
member of Iioeal Union No. 1, New York,
is amenable to the laws of this body, that
union is instructed by the resolutions to call
on Thomas to annul such contracts as con
trary to the spirit and laws of theleagne.and
in case of his refusal, to discipline him to
the extent of its laws.
After a heated discussion the resolutions
were finally withdrawn at the urgent request
of the New York union, because the Chi
cago delegates did not have any document
ary prool of their charges (against Mr.
Thomas. The proposition to join the Fed
eration of Labor was finally ruled out of
order, and a resolntion to make low pitch
the standard musical pitch of the United
States, was adopted.

A HICE POINT EAISED.
A Lawyer Holds That Chinese 3Iay Legally
Cross Ov er in Kowboats.
UxiCA, N. Y., March 20. In the trial of
James A. Miller, alias James Muldoon, for
smuggling Chinamen into this country,
now in progress before United Stales Dis
trict Judge Coxe, in this city, Attorney
DeAngelis, of this city, who was assigned
to defend the prisoners, raised an interest
ing point to-day.
The Chinamen came to this country by a
rowboat across Niagara river. The statute
provides that it is a misdemeanor to aid or
abet any Chinese person to enter the United
States by land, or to aid or abet any such to '
land from a vessel. Mr. De Angelis argued,
and tne Government admitted, that the
rowboat was not a vessel within the mean
ing of the statute. Mr. De Angelis argues
that coming by rowboat could not be con
strued to mean coming by land. The effect
of this construction of the statute would en
able Chinamen to come to this country by
rowboats. The court held that, for the pres
ent, he would hold the statute broad enough
to cover coming to this country by whatever
means, but promised to give the question
further consideration, and change bis rul
ing, if wrong.

The Fresident Sustains Bis Objections, bat

St. Louis, March 20. President Harri

Henry Wessels In the court martial case
against him. A court martial bad been or
dejed to try Captain Wessels at San An
tonio for insnbordination and language un.
becoming an officer and a gentleman, but
objectiou was made on the ground that lbo
order bad not received the President's signa
ture, and was, therefore, invalid.
In sustaining Captain Wessels' objection,
the President severely reprimanded him.
