spect to cleanliness. Information concerning dam
gerous vaults and cellars will he collected aud kept
IN such manner that there will be delay in the
work of dsinfection if cholera appears near such
places. We shall be IN position to know also
what buildings would be available for cholera hos
pitals in an emergency, and where the materials
necessary for the fitting up Of such hospitals could
| be obt aimed quickly If needed Even the cost Of
the materials will be asccrtained, In order that
there need be no delay, If an extra medical staff Is
