The Black Plague Carries of Many
Chinemen.
Snn francisco. June 19-The steamer
Relgic arrived here to-day with fuller
lctails of the black plagne now raging at
long Kong. When the vessel clelred
the scare over the result of the first dis
closures of the epidemic had subsidized
considerably, and it was vainly hoped
the disease would soon be stamped out.
MCrtality statistics, however, revealed the
terrible character of the disease. Despite
the operations of the sanitary staff and
the police, assisted by the army medical
staff corps and soldiers, about 500 new
ce ses had been reported within week.
and there were 400 deaths. To cap the
climax an outbreak of smallpox was
dreaded. The disease increased in girn.
lenee, and the diseeYarE af a greater
number of eases aroused the enmity of
the Chinese who had for a short time
appeared willing to cooperate with the
authorities on bringing to light all known
cases. Attempts were made to evade the
inspection. Sick persons were removed
from house to house at the approach of
police, houses were barricaded and in a
few cases the officers were Stoned by
the infuriated Chinese. Owing to these
difficulties the epidemic gained renewed
virulence. News fF99m Canton, where the
plague staFtted, states that the death rate
now averages 200 a day. During March
and April they averaged 500 daily, AL
though the fact that the ''black death
was raging In Canton became known only
about a month ago, It appears that the
disease started as long ago as last Feb
ruary.
