THE BLACK PLAGUE.
The New Year Celebration Observed Despite
the Horrible Presence Of Death.

the Horrible Presence Of Death.
WARRINGTON, July 27.-Additional
information regarding the black
plague in China has been received at
the marine hospital service through
the department of State Minister
Dunn writing from Toxic, under date
of June Is, reports the pest to be on
the increase at Hong Kong. Latest
advices, he says, are that up to June
over 1900 deaths had occurred at Hong
Kong, and several Europeans had
died OF the plague. A very small per-
centage only of those who are attack
cd recover. Under date of June 20
Minister Dunn says that latest adj
vices from Hong Kong report slight
abatement of the epidemic. He also
encloses to the state department a
notification by the Japanese govern
ment, which requires citizens of the
United States IN Japan and the com.
manders and masters of naval anu
merchant vessels arriving at Nagasaki
Kobe, Yokohama and Hakodate to
conform with the imperial ordinance
for the regulation of the inspection OF
vessels arriving from cholera infected
ports,
IMMENSE PERCENTAGE OF MORTALITY
Charles DENLY, Jr., secretary of le-
cation at Picking, says the plague
now prevailing has caused great I'M
easiness, and every precaution has
been taken to prevent it's introduce
ton into districts not yet infected.
Great difficulty arises, however, from
the utter inability of the Chinese to
understand and unwilliDgness to COM
ply with the most elementary princl-
Piles of sanitation.
In Hong Kong cases have D1mber-
ed between 40 and so per day, with
about 70 per cent of deaths. AT Can
ton 1t was estimated that 5000 deaths
had occurred up to the 9Th of May.
At that city novel and thoroughly
Chinese method of checking the dis
ease was hit upon. A fortune teller
having given out that the plague
would die away with the approach OF
the spring solstice, the people OF Can
ton, in order to deceive the gods Of
sick ness, made the first day of the
fourth moon MAY s. their New Year
day.
CHASTITY CELEBRATION IN CANTON
Every ceremony by which the day
is celebrated was gone through with
scrurulous exactitude. The loca
authorities assisted in this iarcial per-
formance. The New Year festivities
in the presence of such widespread
death had somewhat CHASTITY char
acter.
Under date of July II the United
States consul at Liege. Belgium, re.
ports that Is deaths from cholera had
occurred in that city during the week
ending July T. the past week, he
says, the newspapers reported four OF
five new cases each day. So great l.
the confidence of the people in the
power of the authorities to suppress
the disease that its presence occasions
absolutely no excitement The ex'
plosion of single dynamite bomb hal
frightened more people ont OF towr
| than all the cholera they have had.
