THE BLACK CLOUDS OF CnoLERA.-London
April 1.-The Elster vacation has begun in
fhe shadow of an approaching cholera epi-
demic. In Russia the authorities have been
forced to acknowledge the presence OF the
disease in several cities aud provinces, which,
according TO NIL former official reports, have
been unaffected since December 18th. In
fourteen Governments Of Southern, South
eastern, Eastern and Northeastern Russia
the deaths have been numbered by the
score every week for the last six months
These Governments include within thsir
boundarie. mo It Of the black earth region,
lands which are known as the granary Of
Russia, hence to the horrors of the epidemic
has been added the appalling prospect of q
return of the famine, with typhus and other
fcvers in its wake.
The deplorable results of the Russian
system of deception in health reports be-
comes suddenly apparent. In eight Galiciau
villages, near the Russian frontier, the
cholera has already shown itself, and in four
more suspicious places, cases Of cholersic
diseases have been isolated.
Physicians in Vienna and Berlin are al
ready prophesying that within four weeks
all Central Europe will be obliged to revive
The active campaign Of last summer against
the epidemic. Il
