REPORT OF HEALTH OFFICER.

Dr. Wright Renders Account of the
 Origin of the Epidemic.
 Following is the report rendered by
 Health Officer Wright at the meeting
 of the board of health yesterday after
 noon. It was unanimously approved and accepted, and the board adopted
 the recommendation of the health off,
 cer to notify the Water company that
 water from Lake Dawson cannot be
 supplied to consumers within the linn
 it's of New Haven until the water now | in the lake has stood for at least one
 month and then drawn off and the lake | filled with fresh water. Another reso- lution was passed asking the state | board of health to cooperate with the city board in it's investigation of the
 present epidemic.
 The health officers report is as fol- lows:
 MT. President and Gentlemen of the Board of Health:
 I beg leave to call your attention to number of cases of typhoid fever now prevailing in New Haven and lay be- fore you a full report of the situation. On the morning of April 3 Qast We'd nesday) six cases of this disease were reported by two physicians, each re- porting three cases. While this num- Der is unusual for this season of the year there seemed to be nothing to at- tract special attention, but during the latter part of the day repeated inquiries by physicians and the fact that an un- usual number of blood specimens had been sent to the bacteriologist to have the Widals test applied, excited my suspicion that we were on the verge of an outbreak of this disease. This was increased at a meeting of the New Haven Medical association held the same evening, when many physicians stated that they were in attendance upon persons whom they suspected to be i'll with the disease. The next morn- might find if more cases had been reported and found eight new cases. The location of these cases and conver- sations by telephone with several phy- sicians led me at once to believe che trouble was in the water supply, as all of the cases were in the western part of the city extending north and east as far as DiXwell avenue and south and east as far as Congress- and Howard avenues.
 My next move was to telephone those physicians residing in the adjoining town whom I knew to be practicing in the vicinity of the storage lakes and along the streams leading to the same. Several cases were learned of in this way in different localities, but the only ones that could be regarded as likely to cause the outbreak were those happen ing in a German family living in near the Bethany line and nearly a mile above Lake Dawson.
 I at once consulted with Mr. Dag 1 gett, the secretary of the New Haven Water company and ascertained that |
