EDNESDAY THE POST-STAKDABD, SYEAGTJ SB, N. 7 3 CASES BACON-CHAPPELL Reefers. Bargains Greatly Reduced Us Reduce Stock SCARLET FEER Highest Number Since Epidemic of Four Years Ago. SCHOOL NURSES LOCATE MANY 'Investigation of School Absences suits in the Establishment of Quarantine Where Physicians Are Wot Galled, The number of scarlet fever cases in Syracuse, as reported to the Bureau of Health yesterday, rose to 173. This ex- -ceeds all of the city records for this taskms disease since, the scarlet fever of four years Three of the cases reported yesterday those of children who were flesqua- mating 1 a very mild attack of the fever and were running at These cases were discovered by the scho.ol "mu-ses and had not been under the care Of physicians.

By direction of Commissioner of Public Safety PL E. Hessler, who requires thEt- nil necessary means employed to coin- bat the epidemic, a number of extra M- school nurses-have been temporarily: employed. A the'result of a recent plan school principal in the city makes a 'daily-report of all pupils who are absent from for any cause. The homes of these absentees.are immediately visited by the school nurses. As a of this form of "investigation several cases ot scarlet fever have been located where no physician had been called in, and quarantine has been established as a result.

Quarantine regulations have been marie more rigid. Up to a day or two ago hiis- bands and fathers isolated from their quarantined families had been permitted to enter the cellars of their residences for the purpose of attending to furnaces. This practice has been stopped and the guards of the Bureau of Health now look after the furnaces in the quarantined houses. This action is designed to prevent surreptitious visits by men to their Quarantined families. The fact that the 173 scarlet fever cases arc scattered over ail sections of the city makes the maintenance of the quarantine particularly difficult.

Despite this fact Health Inspector James P. Maloney has marshaled his forces of guards by sections, and it is believed that the quarantine as established is being rigidly en- Corced. Railway Gossip C. C. Thorn of New Vorfc traveling' passenger agent for the Southern Railway, who called on Syracuse passenger representatives yesterday, said that travel to the South this is the heaviest ever repotted.

He declared that the crack trains between New York and the resorts of the Middle South and Florida are carrying more persons than ever before and that everything 1 points toward a continuation of this large volume of traffic throughout the late winter and early spring.

Further reports had it that one man had been fatally wounded and carried away by his companions, and such was the report that reached the Sheriff's office.
