NEW Works. GREAT MORTALITY


feopie hillei by Heat.
NEW YORK, Aug. 13,-Yesterday waa
the eighth day of the hot weather. At
sunset 1t became apparent that the hours
of the extreme heat were numbered The
total number of deaths in the greater
New York district during the past week
as the result of tho torril wave is estimated
at from 100 to 1000. The reason for this
wide diversity In the estimates Is found
in the difficulty in obtaining an accurate
analysis of the causes of the deaths.
During the week doctors and nurses
have been working day and night, and in
many cases the heat has been given the
credit for causing deaths in reality due to
other complications. On the other hand
many persons have doubtless pershed
from unknown causes when an autopsy
would ,.:Ts E::TTs SSa.,,wn "sunstroke' as the

Since Monday over 100 bodies have been
sent to the potter's field from the morgue
and 40 more were hurried away this morn

range from 80 to 100 for New York city
alone, the total number of cases of dead
officially reported up to midnight amount.
tions reported in New York city yesterday
was $50. The total number of deaths
officially reported in Brooklyn during the
day was 25. The total number of deaths
reported from New Jersey cities and towns
during the day was about 30.
During the night the freshenlng breezes
swept over the heated metropolitan dis
trict bringing happiness and comfort to
millions of persons The mercury did not
drop as many points as might have been
imagined from the relief afforded, but
there was hess humidity, and any ccssa-
tion from the extreme heat came as II re-
lief.
The board Of park commissioners in the
city of Brooklyn announced that during
the heated term the rule compelling per-
sons to leave the parks at 10 o'clock ut
night has been rescinded. Hundreds of
persons have taken advantage of this tenn
porary repeal Of the order, and last night
they flocked to the parks, carrying blank
cts and pillows with them, and obtaineda
