doveramsst Inspector at Buffalo Makes a
Strange Discovery.
Buffalo, Nov. 28.—Dr. 0. H. Zink, In
ohargeof.the United States bureau of
animal industry in the stook yprds in
Bast Buffalo, diaoovered today what he
believes an outbreak of smallpox among
a consignment of hogs. The animals
were reoeived from St. Lonls last week
and they passed the first Inspection. At
ter they had been slaughtered Dr. Zink
in making a mioroaooptoal examination
of the viscera, discovered what he be
lieved to be evidenoe of smallpox.
The slaughter houses are in the Polish
dlsti tot, where the health offloorsare at
present engaged in fighting smallpox.
The government bureau officials are un
der instruction to work in conjunction
with tho local health authorities in sup
pressing tho outbreak hore, and this af.
ternnon Dr. Zink brought specimens of
the diseased tissue to the bureau of
health, and submitted them to Dr.
Wende. After examination Dr. Wende
unhesitatingly confirmed the diagnosis
of Dr. Zink.
"If the disease develops In animals in
the same way aa It does in human be
ings, I should unhesitatingly oall It
smallpox,” said Dr. Wende. "These
tissues bear all tbs characteristic marks
of the disease. They are evidently of a
contagions nature. The plttlngs and
destruction if tissues are apparent as
well os the oharaoterlstio smallpox pos-
tales."
