Very little visiting was done yesterday, eacn

making his plans for the coming season. The
districts vary greatly in extent. being com;

and poorest portions of the East Side. In these
districts whole families are huddled together in one
and in in spite 81 sts
years the mortality during the summer months Is
enormous.
In the district largely occupied by Polish Jews,
south of Grand-st and east of the Bowery. the
crowding is almost past belief. Ignorance and
hopeless apathy prevail to degree which makes
and sanitary point of view the most interesting
quarter Of the city. To-day the real work Will
begin and each inspector must visit his entire Gus,
tfct at least once and the most sckly and crowded
quarters will receive more rounds before the
season closes. This the corps is increased in
number. and the time. heretofore one month, is ex-
tended to two ending in September
