 Warm Weather May Kill Germs.
 Physicians engaged in combating the disease are of the opinion that warm weather will kill the germs, though this may be only a temporary relief. If they were of the sbubonic type, the summer would augment it, being transmitted from fleas and oth- CT vermin which thrive in such con- ditions.
 The pneumonia type, on the other hand, is transmitted through the re- spiratory apparatus, and as a conse- quence when the Chinese emerge from their warmer quarters into the open air they will escape muchS Scontamina- tion.
