FIGHTS CHOLERA INVASION

DR.. Alvah II. Doty. health officer
of the port of New York, who is en-
gagged in fighting the threatened in
vasion Of cholera, is regarded as an
efficient and watchful public official
He is a lecturer on quarantine santa
ton at Bellevue Hospital Medical col
lege and a fellow of the New York
Academy Of Medicine.
Dr. Doty says that the cholera germ
can be received in one way only
through the mouth, and that there is
no danger in ordinary contact with
persons who have the disease.
However, Charles Dushkind, counsel
for the compliments at the investiga
ton OF Dr. Doty's official conduct now
in progress, declares his belief that
the cholera patients recently placed
in the hospital caught the disease not
on the steamer but at the immigra
ton station, where all the passengers
were detained after landing.
The danger, or rather the under
