Record Of Last Week-An Abatement
Now Looked For.
HAMBURG, Aug. 29.-During the week
Just ended there has been :, ,S37 cases OF
cholera in this city; l ,0S7 of them have
been fatal. The authorities express the
opinion that climax has been reached
and that a steady abatement OF the d.
sease may now be expected. The rea-
sons for this opinion are not gwen, but
II Is thought they are merely trying TO
allay the fears OF the people. The san
ltary officers announce that the spread
of cholera IL Hamburg ls directly trace
able TO the use of the Elbe water for
drinking. The water Is tllthy, they say,
and so Impregnated with poisonous
matter that II constantly menaces the
city with epidemIcs. The presence of
Russian emigrantS IN the city Is pro-
nOunced to have been of but secondary
Importance in the spreading of the
plague. Had the health of the people
not already been undermined by I'M
pure drinking water, 1t is said little or
no damage would have attended the
transport through the city of families
from the infected districts of Russia.
Nevertheless, the local government
board has ordered that dirty and alling
emigrants snail not be allowed to land
until they give their names, occupa-
tions and addresses, so that they can be
easily followed and watched. The as
surances of the municipal authorities
that the cholera has done its worst
have not received mucn credence. Men
who have no business or at liberty to
leave the city for short time, continue
to leave the city. Although no general
exodus Is apparent, the railroads today
have carried 40 per cent more passen-
gers than their average. Most Of the
fugtlves 20 to the coast, although
about 500 passengers have left today
for the interior
