Suicides in the United States are again
upon the increase. The total number re-
portd by mail and telegraph for the year
is 6.755. as compared with 5,340 in 1892
There had been a decrease in the num-
Der since 1896. but the tide seems to have
turned again. OF this total 4,446 were
males and 1900 females. Hitherto the
proportion has been nearly five to one in
favor of males. The figures for the year
would indicate that the number of fe-
males committing suicide is rapidly in
creasing. Among professional men ply
sicians still head the list, SO having taken
their lives, which is the same number as
last year and six less than in 1885, Dur
ing the year six clergymen, six lawyers,
four journalists, seven persons engaged

ravages of the plague have been greatly
reduced. the number of victims in 1900
being little over 10000, as compared with
$50, 900 in 1892 Cholera shows an increase,
the deaths from it in 1900 being nearly
$4,000. as compared with 1000 in 1899. The
large increase in the total was coca
stoned by the terrible famine in India.
Five hundred thousand deaths have been
reported but the number of victims is un-
questionably much greater. 1t is difficult
to make any accurate list of statistics of
this kind. but as far as reported the total
for 1900 is $40. 6O9 as compared with &c.,
