Italians.

Boston, Aug. 30.-In the annual re-
port OF the state board Of health, Sec
rotary s. w Abbott says that during
the past ten years every case Of ma
laria investigated in Massachusetts, has
been traced to the presence in the
neighborhOod of Italian iaborers.
Italy. It is well known. IS cursed by
malaria. says the report In a previous
report on the sanitary condition Of the
Sudbury and Concord rivers. made to
the general court in May. the board
stated plainly that there was nothing
in the condition Of the meadows near
those rivers to generate malaria But
within the last eleven years 1sl cases
have been reported in the distance of
ten miles along the river from Saxon
Vile in a population OF about 500. Few
cases, the board says, were reported
below this point previous to 1885, and
not many until 1888, since which time
it has prevailed in Concord and Bill
erica
In both cases. the board says: The
evidence tends to show that it was in
troduced into these towns by the Ia
borers engaged in digging up this
streets when constructing the water
works and sewerage systems. Upon
the completion of the works in Bill
erica the number OF cases rapidly
diminished. while in Concord. the effect
Of the work continued through last
year. and we must wait through an
other season to learn whether Il also
diminishes here"
