The President In the Punjaob I see that

an attempt is to be made to combat this disease by anti-plague inoculation on an enormous scale.

I also understand that in Formosa anti-plague inoculations were carried on this year with very successful results. It will be in, teresting to us to see the results of these experi: ments, but I doubt rery much whether it would be practicable for us to enforce anything of this kind amongst the Chinese Idoubt, too, whether a general cleansing such as that carried on last year is really efficacious, and my reason for of the housed were just as dirty three weeks that statement is that 1'an informed that diany
