Want In It's Train.

epidemic Ia carrying 10 its train such want
and suffering as has never before marked

workmen who depend upon their daily toll
for the support OF themselves and families
find It utterly impossible to earn a pfennig.

with Hamburg are afraid now to handle any
thing made In the plague-stricken cisy, and
IN consequence every branch OF Industry
shows on entire absence OF orders. OF
course, with no demand for their products
the manufacturers find 1t impossible TO keep
their employees at work, and the idle people
OF the city are daily gaining fresh accessions
from the ranks OF clerks, artisans and I'M
skilled laborers, who are discharged because
OF the utter stagnation OF business. The
distress is most marked among the dock
lAborers and fishermen. The shipping trade
of the city has received the most severe
blow from the epidemic and many OF the
vessels belonging to Hamburg have been
! forced TO lie up until the epidemic abates.
