TO the Editor Of the St Croir Apis.'
Dear MIR, Editor.

OF the 18th July, (reprinted also i"
your paper of yesterday concerning
cholera, I could not help being as
tonished mt the partly categorical
and sweeping, partly in some points
self-contradictory u%tterances which
DR.. Koch, according to the Times
correspondents, has come forward with.
When, for example, DR.. Koch says
''TIIe infection, rs l have already
stated, is not conveyed bv tie air, but
by the absorption of the microbes in
eating" then, while there is no doubt
that infection is conveyel, though by
no means in all cases, through CON
taminated water, vet infection iii
many other cases, and The rapid>pread
of cholera on the whole. would be en-
tIrely inexplicable if the infectious
matter were not carried from place to
place through the air or, as Dr., Koch
in another place admits, if infection
we're not also possible by contact, with
out being conveyed through food. In
another place DR.. Koch says (or it
il stated that he sayS) "the first
precaution, therefore, is to expose
the linen OF patients t" d'y heat
or calboIic acid somewhat strong,
for The microbes cannOt live in strong
solutions of carb0.ic acid" Now. it
is perfectly certain that the microbes
themselves cannot live in strong s"lu-
lions of carboIic aci !, but il is proved
that their spores do not die t il after
they have been a very long time in
such a solution, while ON the other
hand they, an well as the .microbe
itself. are easily killed by ven weak
solution OF corrosive Sublimate. All
this is proved to demonstration by i'm
authority whom DR. Koch will GER
tainly acknowledge, namely by Dr..
Koch mmSelf.
These aud many similar considera.
tions forced themselves upon me while
reading the Times article, and was
vexed to think that such statements
should appear under a sr"ai name and
in "a great newspaper. When after
wards I saw the article reproduced in
the Avis, it At once occurred + o me
that | would make "A few criticisms
upon it, well knowing at the same
time thar my name, of course, is Of
no significance by the side of Koch'>.
Chance has, however, wilIed it, That
u man still more famous than Koch,
- much greater authority than he
namely Pasteur, has fornd occasion
to reply to him
He writes :-"All the rules to I've
observed in regard to cholera infec-
ton and which DR.. Koch has given to
the Boar DIS of Health in Toulon and
MarsciIles have been long settled,
that is 10 say, since the infection
was proved to be chiefly spread
through the dejrcIious of the per-
sons attacked. Nevertheless DIR,
Koch'S directions contain something
new. He d;s>uades from watering the
streets and from the daily washing out
of the cutters, and insists that all
dampness tavourS the spread ct the
epidemic. l can by no means share
these views Of his. Shout there be,

ANOTHER TRAGEDY.
Which Resulted in the Probable Death
OF Two Men.

WooNsocKEr. r l.. Aug. 6.
A tragedy. which will probably result in
the death OF two persons, occurred at Woon-
socket water works reservoir, just before
noon today. Theodore T. Mowry, painter,
residing in Manville, drove up to the works
and accosted Elmer Mowry who is employed
there, and with whom he had previously had
trouble. calling the latter hard names. He
raised the shot gun and fired, the sho, taking
effect in Elmer Mowry's left side, tearing
away PORTION of the spinal column and
lodging in the cavity of the bowels, producing
wound from which he cannot recover.
The murderer then drew a revolver and
fired ball into his own temple, the bullet
lodging in his brain. The injuries are also
fatal. Trouble between them is said 10
have arisen from several horse trades in
which the murderer considered his victim got
the best of him.
The feud originated last fall, since which
time they had frequent meetings at which the
murderer always used hard words, the other
taking them in good part. Elmer +. Mowry
is %. unmarried. Theodore t. Mowry is
about 35 and has wife and two children
living in Manville. They are not related
although bearing the same name.
