The revival Of the plague, Dr. Ea-

Canton IS estimated ct 100000. All
classes among the population suffer
ed and rats were found to be affect
ed, but in the foreign quarter Of
Canton, with a population of about
800, not single case occurred.
During the next year cases Of
plague were reported in Hong Kong,
Annoy, Macao and Foochow. and in
1896 sanitary attention throughout
the world was forced on the threat
ening epidemic by its appearance in
Bombay. Starting in August the dis
ease spread throughout the whole
vast territory of the Bombay presi-
dency and before the end OF the
year showed total OF $3.50 cases
and 2,2Se deaths. During that YEAR
plague reappeared il Hong Kong
