CLUB'S COMMITTEE MAKES ITS REPORT Advocates That All Contagious Cases Be Quarantined Twenty-one Days.

DAVIS IS NOT BLAMED Committee Also Suggests That a Better Garbage System Be Used. The scarlet fever epidemic which has created such a lively discussion was thoroughly discussed by the directors, officers and members of the public health committee of the Commercial club last night. According to the present laws of the state board of health a family and the patients having scarlet fever must be quarantined not less than 21 days after the discovery of the disease. Exclusion of the patient and children associated with the patient, from school for ten days after the quarantine is also provided by the state laws. Other children of the family may, at the discretion of the health officer, or the family physician, be disinfected and removed to another house and phall be isolated and excluded from school for a period of ten days and then released, provided they remain free from the disease. The health department has not been demanding a full 21 days quarantine, but has been lifting the quarantine upon receiving notice from the attending physician that the patient is well, according to the report of the commit- , tee. What Committee Found. The committee from the club was informed by the city health officer that the rules laid down by the state board of health were not mandatory and did not have to be rigidly enforced by local health officers who are permitted to use their own judgment in reducing the length of quarantine. The local health officer has not been strictly enforcing the rules of the state board of health, according to the committee, which advised that when the family physician notified the family that his attendance is no longer needed it shall be the duty of the family physician to notify the health department that he has ceased attention upon the patient in quarantine. Then the committee advised, the board of health should assume supervision of the case and have the family either visited by the health officer or any other physician whom he may designate, other than the family physician, and the quarantine then lifted, if the health officer or his deputy thought best. At present quarantines In practically all cases are too brief to be effective, the committee finds. The women who agitated the question were commended by the members of the committee. Davis Not Blamed. It was very decidedly stated by the members of the committee that the blame for the local scarlet fever contagion coult not attach to the city health officer, who has complied with the laws, according to the interpretation given them. The plea of a citizen In whose household there is a case of contagious disease, that he cannot afford to pay for a doctor is insufficient for on demand free medical attendtion will be supplied by the board of health. In many cases, the committee believes, people were keeping facts from the at-

The club officials after hearing the report of t the committee believed that the proposition should be submitted to the members of the club at their next regular meeting and the club go on record as being in favor of demanding that a quarantine of 21 days and no less be maintained in all cases of scarlet fever. Another question which engaged the attention of the public health committee was the matter of handling the garbage in the city. It was thought by the committee that the present plan might be improved on by a better sanitary system, which would also be more economical. In the investigation of this problem the committee has inquired into the manner in which cities the same size of Richmond have handled their garbage. No conclusion has been formulated as a result of the data procured. The material will be ready to place in the hands of the incoming health committee and the present committee advised that the future committee make a careful investigation of the proposition and make recommendations to the board of works for improvements. COMMITTED TO HOME Pending Admission to Hospital For Insane. Irene Harvey, daughter of George Harvey of southwest Second street was committed to the Home for Friendless Women yesterday afternoon from where she will be sent to the Eastern Indiana Hospital for Insane. Miss Harvey is twenty-four years of age and has been demented for several years. She was adjudged insane sev eral months ago and her parents have been caring for her at their home awaiting the necessary papers for her admittance to the nospital. She has been becoming rapidly worse during the last month and it was feared that she could not be properly cared for at her home.

He was brought to this city and taken to the Reid Memorial hospital. The engine, coal tender and seven freight cars had crossed the trestle when the bridge beams broke. The car with the broken flange, other cars on the trestle, and five or six cars which had not reached the bridge, crashed through. The beams and sustainers were snapped in twain. The creek, which was about four or five feet deep at" that point was dammed with coal and broken lumber from the cars. Traffic Tied Up. The cars which had crossed the trestle work were taken on through to Chicago, the train's destination. Other cars which had not reached the trestle were taken back to the Boston yards. Construction gangs from Boston and Richmond were immediately detailed to the scene. Employment was given a number of men today in the clearing of the debris which work will continue for the next three or four days. Bridge workers will be sent here as soon as possible to construct a newbridge. Railroad officials say that it will be at least seven or eight days before a new bridge can be completed. In the meantime traffic south on the road will be completely tied up unless arrangements can be made with the Pennsylvania company to detour at Cincinnati to Richmond. "If this had been a passenger train, such an accident would not have happened," said J. A. Barker, local trainmaster today. "It was no fault of the bridge." The track was torn up for from fifty to sixty feet on each side of the gulfy. Bolts in the rails were cut for at least 300 feet from the trestle, indicating where the flange was broken.
