New Orleans, October Is. Numerically
this has been the worst day vet of tho
fever situation As early as o'clock this
evening the score at the board OF health
showed a totality of fifty-two new ceses
and there had then been deaths to the
number OF eleven. Heretofore the highest
number of deaths in single day mas been
nine. Unfortunately there continues TO be
curing because attention is not called in,
and the masses, for the lime benz. are in
a revolutionary mood, because or the en-
forcement of the system OF house @, arr
antine, and are resorting to every mems
in their power to put obstacles IN the way
of the authorities. 1t is generally asieed
here that the house quarantine is not ac-
compllshing the results expected. When
the fever first broke out efficient guards
were placed about the buildings IN the hope
that the foci might be restric cd, hut to-
day there Is no quarter Of the city hat has
not reported cases and the germs are be-
ing spread. as has heretofore bcc1 shown
in these dispatches. by reason of the fact
that the inmates of infected houses have
been successful by means OF rear exits,
in eluding the vigilance OF guards STA
toned In front Of the premises by he au-
ttorities President Olllphant and other
officials of the board of health we're very
much disappointed this evening AT the
mortality showing OF the days raaord but

cases, were to be traced to an ildisEosi-
ton on the part of many people to lei 1t
