New York, Feb. 1.-THE Financier
says:
The statement of the New York as

leans and of deposits and this, too.

specie and loss of s.. 2O2 800 in legal
tenders, while the estimated movement
showed gain of $2,619, 100 cash. This
discrepancy may be accounted for by
an outward movement of legal tenders
through the mail to Boston and Phila-
delphia, which shipments were not re-
ported by the bank tellers who con.
ined their reports to the amount of
money which was delivered to or re-
ceiyed from the express companies.
The loans were expanded last week
by $13, ,49S, 100 This makes total
expansion since the second week in
January of $67. .T67 800 and the loans
are now 1892, ,OO4. 700, or $13,215, 100

Hundreds Of People Killed In the

st. Petersburg. Feb. 1.-THE latest

firms the appalling character of the
earthquake at that place and adds 300
corpses have already been taken out

earthquake which destroyed the town
of Shamaka had been recovered up to

PREVENTING YELLOW FEVER.
Experiments at Havana Provo the
Mosquito to be the Cause.

Havana. Feb. 17.-Major w. c. Cor
gas, chief sanitary officer Of havana
says the principal work of the sanitary
department for the past year has had
for its object the determination Of yel-
low fever, and that he has many rea
sons to believe Havana has been ac-
tually purged from the disease. Dur
ing the last 100 years, Major Gorgas
says. yellow fever has been epidemic
in Havana. and all sanitary measures
that have been taken have had no
effect General disfnfection. as car
ried out for other diseases. has been
tried to no purpose; but yellow fever
sharply disappeared upon the introduce
tion of the system based on the killing
of infected mosquitoes, on the theory
that by such mosquitoes could the dis
ease be transmitted.
From September 2S. 1901 not single
case of the fever has been reported.
and this condition is so unusual that
in the opinion of the major it puts
aside all questions of chance. During
the last forty-five years scarcely Il
month has passed without deaths oc-
curing from the fever. In 1857 2.O5S
deaths from the disease We're reported,
and in 1866 there We're fifty-one deaths.
The average for forty-tive years has
been 751.
In 1891. with the new system there
was only eighteen deaths, and twelve
of these occurred before the system
was put in operation. AT the beginning
of 1901 the conditions We're most un-
favorable, and there was every pros
pect that yellow fever would be preva-
lent. During 1900 there had been 1.244
cases of the disease and 80 deaths.
On March !, 1901. the plan of killing
infected mosquitoes was put into eff
feet, with the result that only six per-
sons have died in Havana from yellow
fever since that time.
