Every day the pallon search the houses in the slums of the city and remova the sick to the infectious diseases hospital outside the city. I hear from the Japanese that about 35 10 30 fresh cases are reported daily amongst their own countrymen, and that a great many Japanese are returning to their eative land owing to their fear of catching these very infectious diseases, while Immigration from Japan is prac- tically at a standstill for the same resion. The mortality is very heavy, for as yet the Japaneso doctors, like their European confrères in the East, have not yet been able to cure patients the cold season has now faltly set in, and as the suffering from these terrible disasies. However,
