New Orleans. October t5.--Fever cases
rolled rapidly in today By o'clock there
had been seventeen reported; by o'clock
there were thirty six, and by o'clock
there were forty-four, so that early in the
evening the prospects were excellent that
this day would show the high water mark.
The large number of cases. however.
did not represent corresponding increase
in deaths. From single house on Bour-
bon street four cases were reported in
bunch by DR.. Formento, and In his official
statement to the board the doctor wrote
that, somewhat remarkable to say. tie
cases were taken almost simultaneously
A somewhat similar condition of AFFAIRS
was reported from 70S and ITO Third
street. Two cases were found on one side
and three on the other and the report OF
them was made in group The cases IN
usual are confined to no particular locality
of the city, and the yellow flag was run
up today in every direction.
An excellent feature of the situation.
however, is that recoveries and DISCHARGES
Of patients are numerous. This is ih'
fortieth day OF the fever, and this after
noon the total number Of recoyerics ex-
ceeded the total number OF cases now IN
der trea tment, showing the success which
the local physicians are meeting with In
treating the cases
