Filth prevalent on Chihuahua Hill is reported to be present in more revolting quantity at the present time than ever before in the history of the city. Unless abated, physicians de clare, the condition of affairs extant must breed much disease so soon as warm weather really sets in.
 Aside trom the wretched squalor in which many of the Mexican resi- dents On the hill live, the recent un- usually heavy season of ram has caused the overflow of cess pools on the hill and the filth from these is added to the mass thrown from houses on to the hill sides to rot and lester in the sun.
