The monthly reports of Major Cor
gas, chief sanitary officer of Havana,
continue to be very agreeable reading,
both to Cubans and to Americans, for
they show that yellow fever can be
very nearly eliminated by vigilant and
intelligent supervision, conducted
along the lines of modern research.
In the month of July there were but
four cases of yellow fever in Havana,
only one of which resulted fatally
In 1897, the last year of uninterrupted
Spanish rule, there were 1853 deaths
from yellow fever in Havana. In Ha-
Vana last month there were 537 deaths
from all causes, but in July, 1898, there
were 1882, and the average since 1889
has been 800.
