IN CHINESE LAUNDRIES

METHOD OF SPRINKLING CLOTHES TO BE STOPPED BY CHICAGO HEALTH OFFICIALS WHO SEE DANGER IN PRACTICE.

Criminal action may be taken against Chinese laundrymen in Chicago who sprinkle clothes by blowing water through their mouths. Complaints have been brought to the attention of Health Commissioner Evans that disease has resulted from this practice. GERMS LODGE IN. COLLAR. These complaints, coming upon the heels of reports from Paterson, N. J., that a citizen of that place had contracted leprosy from a collar ironed by a Chinese laundryman, have caused an investigation to be made here. The collar was rough edged and the germs of the dread disease lodged in these breaks in the linen, the doctors say. . The possibility of such a thing in Chicago has stirred the health authorities. A thorough inspection of Chinese laundries is to be made, the owpers will be compelled to keep their places in sanitary condition and the Chinese practice of sprinkling clothes through the mouth will be stopped. CALLS METHOD DANGEROUS. Dr. Herman Spaulding, in charge of the department oF contagious diseases, declared the method of doing up clothes in Chinese laundries was dangerous and ought to be prohibited by law. "The mouth is the favorite breeding place of germs," he said. "If a Chinaman had leprosy, consumption, pneumonia or other disease, his mouth would be full of infection. To deliberately spread this on clothing is almost criminal. That may be the way in which the Paterson man's collar spread leprosy. Doctors now admit that it can be caught by inoculation." An ordinance or state law is suggested by the health authorities to prevent insanitary methods of laundry work. It'is said that droning even will not kill all the disease germs on linen.

course, that the President had Mr. Goodrich in mind for the governorship when he spoke.

Washinton, July 11. A new namo has been sprung in Washington in connection with the Indiana gubernatorial nomination. It is the name of James P. Goodrich, former Republican state chairman. Gossip connecting Mr. Goodrich with the nomination has followed President Taft's recent visit to Indiana.
