OF mr. LudlRm-1uteres1fue Report
OF His Case by tho Attending Fhy.

The New York Herald says hydronhobia Is |
at present raging to fearful extent in the
Empire State, but more particularly is this |
It has been the firmly established opinion
that madness among dogs was peculiar to |
the summer months. Another tkeory is that |
most cases occur during unusually protractcd |
vet seasons. From recent develop

are Us numerous IN January as july. IN the
short space Of one mouth no less than thirty
dogs, supposed to be mad, have been shot
on the island, most Of them ia the vicinity
weeks ago Mr. Berthkump and two chill

Dogs which, from their remarkable actfons
In billing other animals. were supposed to be
mad. nave been killed In Woodsfde, Flushing
and Jamaica. Again, at Hunters Point, on
Friday last, a mad dog made Its appearance,
and was not Killed until gentleman named
Carter. who WAS shielding little girl from
Its attacS. had been bitten. It would ar.
pear that the bite Of an cnraged dog Ia Just
as dangerous, aud In one Instance At least ns
latal, as TINT Of onc TINT IL mad.
On Monday gentleman at Cypress Tltts
was severely bitten by dog supposed to bu
mad. The great prevalence OF the disease
