BUBONIC PLAGUE NO
LONGER TROUBLESOME
SAN FRANCISCO STOPS SHIP
DISlNFECTI0N
Hundred Inspectors and Laborers Dis
charged, but Sufficient Force
Kept to Wage War
on Rodents
[By Associated Press.l

WASHINGTON, Oct. 22.--In view of
the improved conditions in San Fran
cisco, Surgeon General Wyman of the
public health and marine hospital
service, has instructed his officers to
discontinue the disinfection of outgo-
ing vessels.
For more than a year all vessels
leaving San Francisco have been
fumigated for the purpose of killing
rats, in order to prevent conveying
the plague to other ports.
There has been no death from the
disease in San Francisco in eight
months. Although 5000 rats have been
trapped, or killed, and examined each
week, no infected rat has been found
since June 10, except one in July and
one in August.
The surgeon general has ordered a
diminution of the force at work in San
Francisco by the discharge of about
100 inspectors and laborers, retaining,
how ever, a sufficient number to con-
tinue the work so far as deemed nee
essary.
These orders are significant as in
dicating the success of the efforts for
elimination of the plague, yet the sur
geon general states that the warfare
against rats must continue for an in
definite period.

rpy Associated Press1

RENO, New, Oct. 22.-
Three miners fell sixty-five
feet down the shaft of the Rat
tier No. 2 mine at Ramsey yes
terday, and two of them were
so terribly injured that they
were brought to Reno for
treatment.
C. Magoroli, the most severe
ly hurt, stood a 20-rnile trip in
a wagon without a groan, al
though his back is broken. His
stoicism, physicians say, sur
passed anything they ever had
seen.
Peter Hultz, the other
patient, suffered broken ribs, a
shoulder dislocated and his left
ear was torn from his head. He
will recover. Magoroli's case
is doubtful.
c. Trimb1e, the other miner,
sustained only a few bruises.
