Conduct Inquiry Into Fatal
Caaes at Albany.
ALBANY, Feb. 11.— L ittle two-
year-old H orst Ruehling, the only
rem aining member of three fam il­
ies of 12 people who partook of a
family dinner in this city a week
ago Saturday, died Sunday of bot-
ulinius poisoning, a victim of the
same deadly poison th a t claimed
the 11 other who partook of can­
ned beans. The death of the two-
year-old boy completes the des­
truction of three families, i l
others having died last week. B ur­
ial services for H orst Ruehling
will be conducted today.
H orst has been in America
about a month, coming here from
Germany with his parents, Mr.
and Mrs. Gotfried K. Ruehling, for
a visit with Mrs. R uehling’s broth ­
er, Paul Gerbig. He was orphan­
ed by the deaths of his parents
and aunt and uncle last week
from botulinus poison.
The little boy was reported as
recovering several tim es Saturday
but the official statem ent by Dr.
W allace said th a t the boy was dy­
ing slowly and his death m ight be
expected during the night or Sun­
day.
• H orst exhibited
symp­
tom s sim ilar to those of the other
11 victims, who were buried yes­
terday, at times he showed signs
of improvement but w ithin a few
m inutes was again in a semi-con­
scious state. The paralysis th at
set in ju st before death in the
other cases had not yet^appeared
in his case. The paralysis slowly
creeps up the legs of the poisoned
person and at the same tim e the
th ro a t seems to contract, causing
the victim to try to te ar at his
th ro at. The deaths of nearly all
of the poisoned persons have been
more or less violent, some having
convulsions.
First Cases in Oregon
Dr. Frederick D. Strickler, state
health officer, said Saturday that
these were the first cases of bot­
ulism in Oregon. He stated th a t
in Europe and Asia the poisoning
was more common than in Ameri­
ca. The disease, known as “ lim-
berneck” in poultry and forage
poisoning in anim als, is equival­
ent to the botulism in hum ans.
In th e last 25 years, according to
Dr. Striker, there have been 111
deaths from this poison and only
39 recoveres out of 150 cases.
Botulism will grow in sausage,
w here it originally got its name
and significance, or in cottage
cheese, ham, string beans, ripe
olives, asparagus an d corn, he
said.
CHICAGO, Feb. 8.— The pois­
oning of 11 persons In Albany,
Or., by eating home canned string
beans, was today made the subject
of Inquiry by the United States
public health service through Dr.
J. C. Geiger of the University of
Chicago.
Dr. Geiger, who is regarded as
th e foremost authority on the little
known baccilus botulinus, was di­
rected to suspend his study on
th a t subject at the university and
go to Albany.
About all th a t has been learned
of botulinns thus far, according to
Dr. Geiger, is th at is develops in
home canned foods and th a t every
reported case of poisoning has
been fatal.
ARM POWER AIRPLANES
POSSIBLE, SAYS EXPERT
LONDON, Feb. 11.— “ I have
little doubt th a t it Is now possible
to design an aeroplane capable of
flight by a m an’s m uscular pow­
er.”
This statem ent was made by
Colonel Ogilvie, fam ous British
aeronautical expert, d u r ing a
speech on low-powered aeroplanes
of the fu tu re at a scientific exhibi­
tion.
" It will not be long,” continued
Ogilvie, “ before we get light aero­
planes with a speed range of three
to one, or twenty-five to seventy-
five miles per hour, with a con­
sum ption of one hundred to one
hundred and fifty miles to the
gallon, depending on speed.
"Such a machine would have so
good an angle of climb th a t with a
little head wind it would be able
to go up like a balloon."
