Over a Supposed Case of Asial
 Cholera.

Over Supposed Case of AsfatiC Cholera.
 There was considerable excitement in some was thought to have been cholera. Miss Josephine Marcelin, lady aged forty-two years, was taken suddenly ill on Tuesday night and after lingering with symptoms of cholera until Wednesday died during the af- ternoon. The attending physician, Dr. Downes, called in council Dr. Bowers and both agreed that the ease was one of sporadic cholera.
 A number of physicians in Bridgeport were the opinion that the case was undoubtedly one of cholera, yet they did not think it was the Asiatic cholera. The symptoms of the case resembled those of cholera morbus more than they did the epidemic cholera. In both the vomiting, purging, cramps and depres- sion are nearly the same, but rarely if ever is there stage of collapse associated with the former, while in the latter this stage is often present. In Asiatic cholera the blood loses large portion of its water and circu- lates with difficulty through the system, while in cholera morbus, although portion of the water in the blood is lost, yet the cir culation is not affected to the extent that it is in cholera in the malignant form. In this case, however, an autopsy would clear up the case. No microscopical exami- nation of the case has yet been made, but it is the intention of the doctors to do so at once. Even if the case proves to be one of Asiatic cholera no fear need be expressed Cholera is not 8 contagious disease, but in fectious in it's character. The cholera germ must be taken into the stomach to cause the disease. The apartments where Mrs. Marce- lin lived have been thoroughly disinfected in order to avoid all possibility of infection. It will probably be found when a thorough examination is made that the case was sim ply one of cholera morbus
