Root this morning called into consul

decided that the war department

a policy like that it pursued towards

Surgeon General Wyman has no
confirmation of the report that three
suspicious cases of bubonic plague

prove true Still it is said, few

man says the disease no longer
creates the dread it once did, because
it has been demonstrated that i. can

of fighting it are the same used

which is gratifying to the authorities
in view of the possible outbreak Of
