For convenience an extract from

of

the Daily Press

in substance

giving the

Encl. C 23rd May 1894.

to

only

of my replies to these requests. I can

add that I have

no

intention

of relaxing the regulations which have been put in force and which I consider

in

"absolutely necessary to safeguard as far as possible the

health

of

the entire population.

There have been several cases

of mobbing and stone throwing which have been promptly

dealt

with. The total number

of deaths

up to the present

date is close upon 300, and the mortality amongst those

attacked has been at least

95 per cent, but latterly it seems to have been 80 per

cent.

I enclose some remarks

on the medical aspect of the

plague by Surgeon Penny, R.N.

I have the honour to be,

My Lord Marquess,

Your Lordship's Most Obedient,

Humble Servant,

William Robinson
