LOSING ITS GRIP
Deaths From Fever Con-
tinue Very Few.
New Cases are Found Each Day, But
the Reports Show That The Fever
is Less Viruent Than at
First.
(By the Associated Press.)

New Orleans, Sept. 13.-The official
report of the fever situation in this
city up to six o'clock this, afternoon
is as follows:
New cases, 43 total to date, 2,413;
deaths, 4 total, 1928; new foci 8; cases
under treatment, 303 cases discharg-
ed, 1887.
The average of new cases continues
a little higher than was expected, but
it is not causing any alarm, as there
was ample warning that September
could be looked for to initiate the list
a little. AS matter of fact there
is real cause for congratulation in the
fact that the case is not much great
er than it is. The deaths are still very
low, indicating a death rate for, the
past month of much less than ten
per cent.
OF the deaths today, one was really
caused by cerebro spinal meningitis
but it followed an attack of yellow
fever. Another was Sister Mary ST
Celina, of the Mount Carmel Con-
vent, whose case was reported few
DAYS ago Two deaths occurred in
the Emergency Hospital.
Another evidence of the effective
ness of the work being done by the
Marine Hospital Service, is the state
ment by DR.. White that there is now
not a single case of fever under treat
ment in either the sixteenth or seven
teenth wards, which comprise the up
per section of the city known as Car
rOllton. There have been quite a
number of cases in those districts, but
the infection seems to have been elm
mated. There was a very serious nest
of infection near the city park at the
very beginning of tn efever in the
city and it seems to defy all the eff
forts of the sanitarians to extermi-
nate ii.
The plans for the subdivisions Of
the ninth ward into two districts have
been completed. Assistant Surgeon
Guthrie being placed in charge of the
lower division. which will also include
part of St Bernard.
Two new points of infection were
reported today outside of the city. One
is at LIE Compile, in Rapides Parish,
and the other is Berwick, across the
bay from Morgan City, in st. Mary S
Parish. DR.. Chassaignac reports from
