Plague in New York.
The readiness to which the two cases
of alleged bubonic plague which ar
rived at New York in the British
steamer j. w. Taylor from Santos, re-
sponded to treatment, should lead the
health authorities both of the port and |
city to act slowly before condemning |
the port and causing great loss both |
to merchants and shipowners. The ar |
rival of the steamers Roman Prince |
(Br). Ragusa (GerD and Lassell (Br)
from Santos with no cases of illness |
aboard, shows that there need be no |
great fear of the plague reaching New |
