AND DEATHS IN PARIS.
Berlin, Sept. 3-The public alarm ocos'
stoned by the cholera is fast dying ouS'
owing to the limitation Of the dis'
in an epidemic form to the HsmouS
district, and the confidence that is felt In We
vigilance of the authorities. Cool weather ana
abundant transforms are keeping down diseases
Stimulating cholera, and all influences are resoor-
ing general sense of security Cases resembling
cholera are plentiful enough, especially In Chaf.
lottenburg. The waterworks in this suburb OF
Berlin provide only a scanty supply Of muddy
water. The sanitary conditions Of the place arc
otherwise bad, and il is natural, therefore, to
find it's residents figuring largely in the hospital
returns Of intestinal disorders.
The cholera statistics for yesterday issued
by the Imperial Board Of Health show thas
there were 626 new cases of cholera in Ham
burg while the deaths numbered 1l6. There
figures show decline Of only two cases from the
number reported on Thursday, while the NUMBER
of deaths is exactly the same. The boards report
also shows that siA cases of the disease and tive
deaths occurred yesterday in the district OF otade,
near the mouth of the Elbe, twenty-five miles
from Hamburg FIVE cases and five deaths In Har-
burg on the south branch of the Elbe, six miles
south Of Hamburg and two cases and one death In
Gross Strelitz, town of Prussiau Silcsia.
The undoubted cases Of Asiatic cholera that
have been taken to the Moabit Hospital are all
traceabIc to Hamburg. Two fresh cases that were
taken there to-day are illustrations Of all the
others One Of to-day's cases was an engine
driver on the uQht express train from Hamburg,
while the other was young porter who carried
linen for person who had just arrived from
Hamburg to the dsinfectng chambers. The
marvellous rapidity with which the Hamburg
infection operates was shown in this case. NOS
half an hour elapsed between the time the victim
went near the infected linen and the time he Wa
stricken down. The narrow Steinstrasse, through
which he passed. has been thoroughly disinfec'eo'
a. has also been the Sophien Real GymnasiumS
which is in that street.
Although there is no sign of the disease spreao@
ing here, the authorities have not RELAXED their
precautions The great horse market, whion was
fixed to open on Tuesday, has been fndenniteiy
nostpoued. This fair would have been the nKeii-
