New YORK, Aug. Sit has been settled
to the satisfaction of the health authori-
ties that the three deaths occurring on the
steamer karamania on its trip from Ma
Piles was not Asiatic cholera. AS special
precaution, however, the Karamania's
passengers were this morning taken to
Hoffman Island, where they were bathed
and then sent to Swinburne Island for OBJ
servation One ward will be strictly iso-
lated for patients should new cases de-
velop.
DR.. Cyrus Edison, health commissioner
of this city, says:
"rhe mere fact that the Karamania was
detained at quarantine should not be a
source of great alarm, for never in the his
tory of this country has its sanitary con-
dition been so good
Cnolera has been generally prevalent
in the interior of Russia and in Asia ever
since last year. and has been known to be
epidemic in the south of France since
March OF this year. Its existence In Ma
pies has recently come to life, though it
has not yet become epidemic there. The
north of Europe has been free of cholera
since April, when some cases occurred i'll
Laurent, one of the northern provinces of
France. l have said that the sanitary con-
uitlon Oh the United States in general Is
excellent, and this is more especially true
of the large cities.
Thanks to the energetic work of the
various boards of health, there is little or
no cause to fear as to impure drinking
water. Sojourners at summer resorts.
however, should exercise particular eau
ton, as the water used at these temporary
places of residence is frequently contain
mated. not at present with cholera germs,
but with other germs of diseases which
may weaken the system so as to afford a
lodging place for cholera germs should
these be introduced later.

are able to combat the disease. even should
1T reach this country, IA contingency which
L scarcely class among the possibilities,
was amply demonstrated in the way that
the few cases were handled which ap-
peared here last year, and further it NAV
be said that the sanitary condition of the
city Is better now than it was then"
