The scare is fast abating in the alb
senee of new mortality and in the pres
ence of the active and intelligent
labors of the Board of Health. The
worst frightened people are the tour
lists. but they are new to the Honolulu

journal. so their state of mind can be
excused. They will feel as we'll as the
rest of us do in a few days and re-

PLAGUE DIAGNOSES.

Everything that goes under the name
OF the bubonic plague may not be the
real thing. DR.. McGrew. Honolulu

the so-called bubonic cases and was
with the patient until half an hour be-
fore he died. He saw no signs of the
/ plague. In his opinion the man died
Of something very much less sensa-
tional
The point we make is emphasized by
the experience of San Francisco with
the Board of Health bacteriologist a
few weeks ago when the Nippon Maru
arrived in that port under medical sus-
picion. Two Japanese sailors, anxious
to escape the quarantine in which the
ship was placed, jumped overheard. in
tending to swim ashore. They were
drowned and their bodies cast upon the
beach. The Board of Health took the
remains for examination and its bacte-
biologist, DR.. Barbat, staked his pro-
fessional reputation on a plague dag
nosis. His cultures were surely bu-
bOnic. Then the Federal Health officer
took hand and, after examining The
work of DR.. Barbat and the bodies of
the dead was able to prove that the
sailors. up to the time they entered the
bay, had nothing the matter with them
but pneumonia.
BY common consent the bacilli of
the plague are difficult to distinguish
from certain other germs and many
good psychologists have been fooled
by the wrong Indications We do not.
however, contend that there NAV be
no plague here at all. The point is
that some of the five cases officially
reported by the Board of Health do
not come quite up to the bubonic mark
and that there may be many others.

The Supreme Court has decided
against the constitutionality of the
Pipe Manufacturers combine. one of
the greatest of the newly-created
trusts. This is rightly interpreted as
a body blow to combinations in res

strengthen the hands of Congress in
the effort to improve the Interstate

will be made is supposable as the Re

Yesterday in Anaconda was generally
observed as a legal holiday. The stores
were all closed and the drug stores OBJ

body who could do so took a good rest
in order to begin the new year bright
and fresh
