MONROVIANS ANGRY
AT BOGUS REPORTS
DECLARE THERE is NO SERIOUS
MALADY IN CITY
Climatic Conditions Believed to Have
Caused Slight Illness, but No
Person Afflicted Suffered
Many Hours

MONROVIA, June 22.-Much public
indignation has been aroused by the
publication of two articles in a Los An
geles daily newspaper, one of which
stated that 700 or 500 of the population
of the city of MonroVia had been
stricken with a serious malady, and
the second this morning made the
statement that the illness had increased
and the origin of the same was un-
known. 1t went into detail regarding
the pangs suffered by those afflicted,
and made a feature of the statement
that the local board of health was not
on duty. 1t also printed several pur-
ported interviews with leading physi-
clans and water authorities, and until
the truth was revealed caused wide
spread CONSERVATION.
ITO read that article" remarked a
leading citizen, ''one would suppose
that the population of Monrovia had
been stricken by a plague and people
were dropping dead in the streets.
Water superintendent Dougherty
said that the illness, of which there
were at no time more than fifty cases,
could be in no way attributable to the
water supply, a thorough investigation
having been made.
Everv physician testified that what
few cases had come to his notice had
been speedily cured there being not
more than dozen in town at the pres
ent time.
The cases have in no instances proved
serious, but few having called physi-
clan. DR.. c. C. Browning of the Pot
tenger sanitarium said yesterday that
only a few cases had come to his notice
among the patients, and that within
hours all had disappeared.
The members of the health department
as not being on duty have
been making every effort to ascertain
the cause of the malady, and attribute
it to climatic conditions.
Following is a statement signed by
the two leading physicians of the city,
DR.. r. D. Adams being absent on a
vacation: THAT the few cases of ILL
ness with which Monrovia recently has
been visited are not serious, have not
been increasing in number, and prob
ably are attributable largely to climatic
conditions we, the undersigned. do tes-
tify. Also that the illness has been no
ticeable throughout many neighboring
towns, including Riverside. Redlands,
Santa Ana and many others, and that
articles appearing in certain morning
papers have greatly exaggerated eX-
listing conditions. (Signed)
