The Picsyune correspondent OF

thoughted manner, denounced the
local physicians for unnecessarily
creating 9 yellow fever panic and
their incompetency as professional
men when he said: 1.-The local med

investigation whatever, pronounced
the fever Of which young Carroll
died, "yellow fever of the most
malignant type" Many other hard
things have been said of them pub
licly by persons we hsYe heretofore
credited with sense and reason, and
whom we thought would uphold
any citizen in trying to do good and
averting a great and threatening
evil, although in the end they may
have erred.
Now we empbatically deny the
charge of saying the young man
died of yellow fever, and that We
did not investigate the case.
We only reported 1t as a suspi'
cious case and asked for an expert
to decide the matter. What we
did was done in good faith, having
the interest and welfare of the peo-
pie at heart; and it was not done
nasty and without due considers.

some that declared it not to be yell

thing on which to base such An ass
sertion, unless it was their want of
confidence in our ability to know

do not profess to ba over wise In
the deep mysteries Of our chosen
profession, yet we do contend that
we are not unmitigated ignoram-
uses, as some of the big likes would
have people to believe. And we
have only this u say, that should
