WORK OF CLEANSING.

New Chinatown Needs Driveways
Through All of the Blocks.
In the quarantined district the work
OF inspection and cleaning is being
continued as thoroughly as at the be-
ginning, but the inspectors, and like
wise the Board of Health, state that
the only absolute method by which
Chinatown can be purified is to con-
denim it as whole and put Chinatown
into another locality, or remodel 1t SO
that driveways can be run through the
blocks, and alleyways leading off from
them sufficient to bring the garbage
wagons directly behind the houses and
thus receive the garbage. The repre-
sentative of one of the largest prop
erty owners in Chinatown is recorded
as being in favor of demolishing the
old structures on their land and con-
structing brick buildings instead and
nutting in driveWayS.

LOST ON TANTALUS.
A Party Goes Astray i'm the Dark
and Returns Badly Used Up

A few days ago a large party of la
dies and gentlemen climbed Tantalus
and were caught on the summit in a
rainstorm. The downpour held them
until dark, when they attempted to
make their way home by short cut.
In some of the thickly wooded glades
the party got lost and at times were up
to their knees in mud. Once they start
ed down hill but found themselves on
a precipitous incline where they were
compelled to sit and slide, process
which tore the skirts nearly off the la
dies and left the gentlemen in a sadly
dilapidated state. Happily, on some ac-
count, another rain came on and the
darkness thickened. The luckless adj
venturers reached home after midnight
going one by one in different directions
and avoiding each other as we'll as the
public. Before breaking up the party
pledged each member not to let the
newspapers hear of the adventure.

in few weeks that will cease. Why

Yesterday afternoon DR.. Hoffman,
made the following report on the re-
suit Of his archaeological examinations
and the result of his inoculations on
the rabbits and rats:
Honolulu, December Is. 1899.
Hon. II. E. Cooper, President Board
of Health On the 10th of December
in the forenoon | inoculated a rat
from culture from the Chinaman who
died at Wing Wo Tai's. The animal
was alive sixteen hours later, but was
tame and evidently sick, and was found
dead twenty-four hours after inocula-
ton. On postmortem examination of
the body | found the retro-peritoneal
glands injected and very slightly en-
larged; the intestines hyperaemic, the
liver much congested and the spleen
firm with its capsule tense. Slides
made from the blood and spleen
showed the same bacilli and micro
scopical appearance, and cultures the
same manner Of growth as those from
which the inoculation had been made.
A Guinea pig inoculated December
18th from the juice of the body of the
South Sea Islander was found dead on
the morning of the 18th. The post
mortem examination showed a slight
injection of the peritoneum, and little
serous exudation in the peritoneal cav
ity, but no other abnormal appear
ance; especially no swelling or injec-
ton of the glands. Cultures made from
the peritoneal exudant did not show
bacilli resembling plague bacilli. The
rabbit inoculated December 18th with
the. fluid taken from the glands of the
first Chinaman is still alive and seems
to be well.
In view of the facts that | found the
bodies of two persons who have died
suddenly after short sickness, having
the postmortem appearance of those
who have died of plague, and that |
found in the bubo of one of these per-
sons bacilli very much resembling
plague -Baci1li, that on inoculation with
a pure culture of this bacil1i [ produced
the death of a susceptible animal, and
found again the same bacillus in the
organs of the dead animal, appears to
me to prove that we have had to do
in these cases with a very infectious
disease, produced by virulent bacil
lus, which seems to me to be the plague
bacillus.
Hat Iuc bullicd piS dppCd1S liol "
have died of plague seems to me TO be
accounted for by the fact that the body
from which the incubation was made
was previous to pOstmortem soaked
with formalin, and that the rabbit is
still alive and we'll may be accounted
for by the fact that the material used
for injection was used thirty-six hours
after the postmortem examination. The
same explanation will apply in the case
of the first rat, which is still alive.
In conclusion, | wish to say that all
cultures and slides have been examined
by Dr. Carmichael of the United States
Marine Hospital Service, who was pres
ent at the postmortem Of the first
Chinaman, and he stated at the meet
ing of the Medical Association of Ha-
waii, December 10Th, Il do not think
there is any doubt of the case of the
man at Wing Wo Tai's; | have no
doubt whatever"

Look at that" said Dr. McGrew To
an Advertiser man yesterday, pointing
to a noisome, shallow pond at the cor
ner of Queen and River streets. Mice
thing to maintain In the heart Of town,
isn't it?" 1t was nice. Standing over
the pond was house on stills, until
lately occupied. the sewage OF which
had run into the mess below. On the
Waikiki side was a line Of rookeries
occupied by Chinese, from which tin
lead pipes fell to the quagmire. Scat
tered about the pond, half out OF wa
ter, was all sorts OF rubbish, and on
the shores of the pestilential place chill
dren and dogs played together. The
smell was the essence of all nastiness.
Yes" said the soldiers on guard, 1T
smells badly enough but we hope 10
get out of here soon" DIR. McGrew
gave 1t as his professional opinion that
the pond is filthy enough 20 start an
epidemic of its own.

Minister Mott-Smith has written to
Mr.. Hartwell officially informing him
that DR.. Walter Hoffman,, Bacteriolo-
gist of the Board of Health, has report
ed two cases which so nearly resemble
plague that no doubt exists in his mind
that there has been bubonic plague in
Honolulu. He also stated that no more
cases have appeared since Tuesday, the
18th instant. This information went
forward by the Centennial last even

Editor Advertiser: In n COM

X charges against the last Legisla-

X dent, Hon. w. o. Smith. petit
+ toned the last Legislature for
4 sufficient funds TO cope with the
4 evil, but that august body saw
X fit In Its wisdom TO deny the re-
X quest" The facts are these:
X When the appropriations for the
X Board of Health first came be-
X fore the Senate Attorney Cen
X eral Smith explained the items
X as they were read. and gave rea-
X sons for asking consider
X able increase of money over
X the former biennial period. The
X items were reported favorabIy
X by the Committee on Public
X Health, and passed on second
X and third reading of the bill
X unanimously. There never was
X any question about giving the
X Attorney General every dollar
X he asked for for the Board OF
X Health or the institutions un-
X its control. Indeed, the LegIsla-
r ture went further. and on the
4 recommendation of a special
X committee which investigated
X the Insane Asylum largely in
r creased the appropriations asked
4 for that institution. The recol-
r lections OF the cholera were
r fresh in the minds OF the legis-
r lators and the president OF the
r Board of Health was given
r everything he asked by both
4 Houses almost without ques-
4 ton
4 AS DR.. Day has precipitated
= a discussion on this subject it
4 may be well for us to call at
4 tention TO a few facts not gener-
4 ally known TO the public. The
4 Legislature OF 1896 appropria-
h ted for salaries and payrolls OF
4 the Board OF Health $119,112.00
X and for running expenses s273.-
h 405.5O. The last Legislature ap-
K propriated for salaries and pay
X rolls S15S,324.00 and for general
h expenses 1924. 100000. In other
h words the Board OF Health has
X had under its control s39 ,212.00 !
h for salaries and $50,594.50 for
X general expenses more during

The Order to Raise Quarantine-Dis-
cuss Chinatown.
The Board of Health held a secret
meeting at o'clock, lasting for half
an hour, after which the public was
admitted Minister Cooper occupied
the chair and Drs. Day, Wood and
Emerson. Geo. w. Smith, Mr.. Kelii-
pio and Executive Clerk Reynolds were
present. President Dole was present
as an on-looker.
George w. Smith moved that the
quarantine about the infected district
be raised at II o'clock noon today, and
also that the steamers an
chored outside the harbor be
declared out of quarantine. This
motion passed without a dissenting
vote. 1t was also ordered that the yes
sells inside the harbor be given the
same benefits as those outside, which
was assented to by the Board.
No Asiatic freight will be allowed
shipment to the other Islands, and it
was declared that the quarantine regu
1ations having reference to such car
goes would still be enforced, and all
Chinese and Japanese freight will con-
tinue to be fumigated.
ABOUT CHINATOWN
DR. Emerson stated that a great deal
of the trouble in cleaning up China
town was due to bad building con-
struction, which he said made it al
most impossible to clean the district,
and recommended that the coverings
Of cesspooIs and grate-walks extending
over the back courtyards be taken out
and new ones put in. In
the block where Ahi lived the property
should be condemned as unfit for liv-
ing purposes.
