YELLOW FEvER's PROGRESS.
RenOrt of DIR. Guiteras to Surgeon
General wyman.

Surgeon General Wyman has received
report from DIR. John Guiteras, professor
of general pathology in the University of
Pennsylvania, regarding his investigation
of yellow fever in the south.
DR.. Guiteras says the conditions existing
in Cuba during the early part of the past
summer made it very probable that yellow
fever would extend from that island to
this country. Discussing the general sub
ject of yellow fever diagnosis, DIR. Guiteras
holds that during life the microscope could
rot establish positive diagnosis of yell
low fever. He speaks of this in connection
with the statement that an erroneous be-
lief has prevailed throughout the south,
especially among physicians who were not
practical microscopiSts. that the instru-
ment should be an important aid i'm the
diagnosis of the disease. 1t is pointed out
that even with the assistance of post-mor-
TEN examinations Sanareli the yellow
fever expert, was able to discover his
bacillus in SO per cent only of the cases
examined.
Dr. Guiteras says as far as our present
methods go it would be impossible to dis
tinguish between a drop of yellow fever
blood and blood from a healthy man. Ref
erence is made to the prevalence of wide
spread mild epidemic fever during the
present outbreak of yellow fever, many of
the cases of which DIR. Guiteras thinks
were those of dengue. Yellow fever APP
an epidemic of dengue prevailing. All evil
derce goes to show that previous attack
of dengue does not protect against yellow
fever, and the former must be looked upon
as an entirely distinct disease.
DIR. Guiteras thinks the cause of a yell
low fever epidemic is to be found in the
Introduction into a community of cases
that are not suspected to be the disease,
which occurs probably most frequently in
connection with colored people, who
usually have the fever in a mild form.
The Importance of the diagnosis of the
first case of yellow fever in a community
Is strongly insisted upon. In concluding
DIR. Guiteras speaks of the interference
with his movements by the fear of commu-
mites that he might convey the disease
from place to place. fear which was in
part genuine and due to ignorance but
was also in part a pretended fear of those
who knew better"

months ended October 81 show an increase
in gross earnings of about s250,oO0 as COM
pared with the results of the same period
of last year, and a.. the property as said to
be in first-class condition it is believed in
inside circles that no change will be made
in the presidency.
II is somewhat of a coincidence that the
lines of both the Baltimore and ohio and
PHILADELPHIA Wilmington and Baltimore,
tetw zen this city and Wilmington, were
inspected by their respective general offi-
Gals Yesterday 1t was stated that both
were found to be in first-class condition
