Bath, N. Y., Oct. 24.--Physicians of this place were to-day telephoned to hurry as fast as possible to Cass Corners, Campbell Creek, Buck Settlement and South Howard, all of which places are hamlets within a short distance of Bath. The aid of the doctors was needed to attend about ninety people who were suffering from symptoms of poisoning, the nature of which has not been determined.
    One hundred guests were at the wedding party last night of Clarence Carr and Miss Nellie Thomas, at the home of James M. Thomas, of Cass Corners. After the party was over ninety of the guests, including the officiating clergyman, the Rev. George Scherer, were prostrated. Drs. Wynkoop, Grant and Stewart, of this place, who answered the call to-day, report that some cases are serious, though not necessarily fatal.
