V message from Medellin, Coltimliia, states the police were forced to rush to the protection of physicians at the City’s free medical institution, called Casas Curias, where they were attacked by riotous citizens, following the deaths of nineteen, and serious illness of thirty children, due to an alleged laboratory error, in which, following two successful treatments, a group of poor children on the third visit to receive anti-diphtheria vaccine, were erroneously innoculated with diphtheria germs. All the doctors in the city are working desperately to save those still alive.
