FUND FOR PLAGUE VICTIMS
Missionary Societies to Act on Porto
Rican Reports.

A number Of reports concerning the
plague came from Porto Rico TO the
offices of missionary societies here yes
terday. and all agreed that the disease
was spreading rapidly through the island.
Now the societies will begin to raise
more money with which to fight 1t.
Baptists heard that their church IN
Corilna had to be RACED in an effort TO
rid that section OF the thousands OF IN
fected rats. A few deaths among the
natives recently occurred in the town.
The entire island is greatly concerned
over the outlook and is devotins all Its
spare time TO killing the rodents.
The Rev. Thomas VI. Carson, Of Huma,
Goa, missionary for the American Mis-
slonary Association, sent word that nine
teen persons had died-a proportion OF
those falling Ill OF IS per cent He said
there was great need for more hospitals
There seems. however TO be some good
done by the plague. The island is being
so thoroughly cleansed that It Is almost
unfamiliar to oldtimers.
Tho Rev. DR.. Charles J. Ryder OF the
American Missionary Association, said
yesterday:
I'VE are advised that none but native
Porto Ricans have thus far been at
tackled. Friends OF missionaries and other
whites on the island have little cause TO
worry. The government is firm, alert and
competent II IS bringing science and
sanitation TO play. Porto Ricsps In our
schools are understanding Americans
better than before. The present outbreak
Of plague whether genuine bubonic or
not, will I'm the end help the island. We
should now help them 10 erect churches,
hospitals and schools"

Albany July Is The presence Of bu-
bonic plague I'm Trinidad recently caused
especial precautionary measures to be
taken TO prevent its introduction into
this country, according TO report sub
mitted to Governor Dix by DR.. Joseph J.
O'Connell. the new Health Officer of the
Port of New York, to-day. The likeli-
hood of danger arising from the pla que
as result of the opening OF the Pan
anna Canal and the consequent stimuls-
ton OF American commerce with Asiatic
and westerly South American ports was
also an incentive to additional precau-
lions. the doctor says
DR.. O'Connell reported that he had
provided for the semi-annual fuInigation
of empty holds for the purpose of de-
stroying rats on all vessels entering
Quarantine from all ports in South
America, Africa, Asia, Turkey and
Europe.
This" the report states. was the
first step In an important port TO put an
end TO the circulation of plague along
channels Of commerce. It was designed
by means OF a periodical fumigation of
the holds Of vessels. to render them un-
teuantable by rodents and thus remove
permanently tie agency through which
the plague has been transmitted from
port to port a a cost OF life and treas
ure which is incalculabe'
DR.. O'Connell points out the additional
financial obligations imposed upon the de-
partment by the unusual amount OF work
made necessary because Of the proximity
OF the plague TO this port" and recon-
mends that provision be- made against
circumstances which may suddenly arise
requiring the expenditure OF large sums
OF money. He also recommends that the
Governor grant him authority to expend
such portion OF the fees collected by him
as may be necessary.
Governor Dix Endorsed the Health on
GERS precautionary system. but said that
the question OF taking the money from
fees collected by Or. O'Connell or direct
from the state treasury would have TO be
PASSED upon later.
