NEW YORK, July 23-The pleasant
weather of the last three days has had
the effect of preventing any further in
crease of the cholera in this city. The
number of confirmed cases yesterday was
fourteen; one Of them was q man who
was discovered dead on Chambers street.
The epidemic is increasing on Governors
Island. There were two deaths yester-
day and more than the usual number of
cases. It appears that of twenty-four
cases on the Island, all were boys from
sixteen to twenty years of age. Prompt
measures have been adopted for the sup
preston of the epidemic, and arrange
ments aro being made to supply the
troops with better water than they now
drink. On Hart's Island the cholera is
severe, the average being from twenty
to thirty daily, with a proportion of
from lO to Is per cent. of deaths. Di.
arrhea prevails among the officers and
men to some extent, and the greatest
care is required to prevent it from merg-
ing into cholera There were five new
cases in Brooklyn yesterday which were
removed to the new hospital corner of
Van Brent and Hamilton avenues.
