1928 Russians Die in Week

st. Petersburg, Aug 20.-One weeks
cholera record for Russia shows 1894
new cases of cholera and 49, 1913 deaths,
bringing the total number of cases in
Russia this year to 1885,; of these
50,2S7 have died, the mortality per-
centage being 44.5.
The figures are those furnished by
the sanitary bureau covering the week
from Aug. Z to Aug. 10, inclusive, and
are, therefore, fully official. Reports
from Red Cross sources indicate that
the actual figures are somewhat great
err as it is practical impossibility to
register every case in an epidemic of
such proportions.
The epidemic in st. Petersburg
shows a considerable decrease, only
265 cases and 1873 deaths having been
reported for the six days ending at
noon yesterday in comparison to the
ST. cases and 233 deaths reported the
previous week. The sanitary author
tiles of the city believe that from
now on the epidemic will continue it's
natural decrease. The total figures
for st. Petersburg since the first cases
were reported June 20 show 2,O79
cases and 730 deaths. The mortality
here in the capital, 35 per cent, is
much less than in the southern pro-
vinces owing to the better hospital ia
cilities and the experience gained in
handling the first big outbreak two
years ago.
