PARIS, March 25.-Concerning the death
of the Russian mujiks, NJ. Pasteur acknowl-
edges that it was undoubtedly from rabies,
but he does not consider that it shows that
the incubation treatment is inefficacious.
He says:
1t proves that the virus of a mad wolf is more
intense and works more rapidly than the virus OF
a mad dog Kajusurow was bitten on March 1.
He died OF rabies days after the bite: He had
emily received seven inOculatl0ns, and virus OF
serious strength can only be used on the sixth
ineculation. His wounds were terrible. Part of
his Jaw was torn away, and the VOLTS fangs pene-
trated right through, and caused what amounted
almost TO direct inOculatiOn into the brain OF the
VOLTS virus am informed by physicians from
Russia, where bites from mad wolves are more
common than those-from mad dogs, that death
after the bite of a mad wolf often occurs 16 days
after the bite and that 95 per cent OF those bitten
by mad wolves die OF rabies. Thus, in the pure
interest of science, the death of Kajusurow may
be considered benefit. The autopsy made yes
terday proves cOnclusiyely that Kajusurow died
Of rabies II the treatment succeeds in the the eases
demonstration can be more complete?
Those Russian mujiks whose wounds en-
abled them to leave the hospital were de-
pressed at the death of their c0mrade, but
were confident in the success of NJ. Pasteurs
treatment, so far as they were concerned.
They have received their last incubation,
but will remain in Paris month longer. Nj.
Pasteur and Dr. Grancher visit the other
Russians, who are still confined to their beds
at the hospital, every day. The priests
wounds are so severe that his lip and part OF
his cheek are TO be cut away in few days.
Another mujik Is suffering.
