AscRIBED TO PURE WATER.
Typhoid Fever in the District Shown
to Have Declined

Fewer typhoid fever cases were reported
last week than during any week since the
present outbreak began. Records at the
evening showed a total of only forty-one
new cases against fifty-seven for the pre-
ceding seven days and siXty-eight two
weeks ago.
The seven days just ended showed also
a net decrease of twenty-one cases, there
being sxty-two recoveries to balance
against the forty-one new cases. During
the week five deaths, due to the malady,
occurred, making a total of fiftysiX fatali-
ties since July l, and eighty-two from jan
uary l to the present date.
In the eight and one-half months of this
year there have been reported at the health
office a grand total of 49, cases of ty
phod fever, 81 of that number being
noted since July l. At the beginning of
last week there were 300 patients under
treatment and last night this number had
fallen to 212 For the last three days the
present outbreak and that of 1904 have
shown almost parallel lines of development
A year ago yesterday there were 27S ty
phoid patients on the health office roster.
Last years outbreak, however, was slow
stated, the situation this year is improv
Ing.
Much interest Is manifested by the health
authorities in the present status of typhoid
because it is felt that the improvement is
almost entirely due to the partial filtra-
ton of the water supply. There is no way
of definitely tracing this fact, but in view
filtration would make for good, the con-
incidence in the decrease of the malady,
with the increase in proportion Of water
filtered is taken to be significant.

MARKETMAN INJURED.
Team Driven by James F. Taylor Col
Ides With Car.

James f. Taylor, sixty-five years old.
marketman, was severely injured yesterday
afternoon in collision between a street
car and his wagon, in which he was riding,
at the foot of Asylum hill, Congress
Heights, D. c., and one Of his team of
horses was killed. The man was picked
up by members of the car crew and pas
sengers and was sent to Providence HOS
pital for treatment. There the doctors
found that his right leg was broken and
his head severely cut. Unless there are In
ternal injuries which are not suspected
now, It is believed he will recover. 1t was
stated late last evening that he was resting
comfortably.
Taylor had been at the market in this
city all day and was returning to his home,
in Friendly, Nd, at the time that the acci-
dent occurred. 1t is supposed that he was
tired by his long trip on the night previous
to the market and his work in disposing
of his produce and had fallen into slight
sleep when he reached the foot OF Asy-
lum hill. The rens were seen to fall from
his hands and he fell back on the seat. The
unguided horses then turned in the wrong
direction. They had been driven near the
tracks, and when they were left to
themselves they sought the tracks. Just
at that moment a car was coming down
the hill at fairly good pace, and the mo-
torman, it is said, changed his bell for the
team coming up. Just before they reached
the point where they would safely pass the
horses turned onto the track.
1t was too late to stop the car to prevent
a collision. One of the horses was struck
in the head by the front Of the car. knock
ing it senseless. In the shock the driver
was thrown over the dashboard to the
pavement. The car was brought to stop
after it had gone only few feet beyond
the scene of the collision and passengers
and crew rushed to where the driver lay.
Conductor l.. A. Poole and Motorman A. A.
Bullock gave what aid they could to the
injured man, and they attended to his being
sent to the hospital Beyond a little jar
ring, the passengers in the car were not
injured

JEWISH PRoTECToRY.
New York Organization to Begin New
Work

The Jewish protectory of New York, the
realization of which has been postponed for
some time since the election of Attorney
General Julius H. Mayer as president, will
soon begin its activity In real earnest, 1t Is
reported. The committee of directors has
in mind the engagement of well-known
educator, not Jewish. to take charge of the
institution. Protests have been received
against the appointment of non-Jew.
these protests being based on pedagogical
ground solely, but the directors think that
they cannot secure the services of a COM
petent superintendent of the Jewish faith.
The protectory is intended to take over the
care OF Jewish delinquents, who have hith-
erto been sent to the Catholic protectory
and to other sectaran houses of refuge. The
establishment of the protectory Is an ad-
mission by the Jews that there Is a suffi-
cheney of Jewish delinquents to warrant
the opening of a special institution.
