Warns of the Threatening Peril.
Crusade Against Rats.

Recognizing the danger Of the trans
mission of the plague from infected
Cuba to the United States through the
medium of incoming ships from the is
land republic, the governmental medi-
cal authorities are every moment be-
coming more stringent in their enforce
ment of quarantine provisions.
Following the urgent request of Or.
j. W. Porter, health officer of the state
OF Florida, who said that it would be
extremely undesirable to allow passen-
gers from Havana to enter Florida
without first being subject to a quar-
antine of a weeks duration, an order
was issued that all passengers from
Havana to American ports shall be de-
tained seven days at the Prisconia
quarantine station, near Havana, be-
fore continuing the voyage to the Unit
ed States.
A Warning Statement.
Surgeon General Blue of the public
health service issued statement warn
ing the public of the peril that threat
ems.
1--WE must admit there is danger to
American ports from bubonic infection
in Porto Rico and Cuba" said DR.. Blue
However, the situation is hopeful. and
the maximum protection allowed under
our quarantine laws is afforded now.
The plague can be controlled among
white persons, but it would be hard TO
stamp out the disease completely. and
as long as there was a trace all other
nations would hold a quarantine
against u.s."
Passed Assistant Surgeon Creel. in
charge of the sanitary staff at Porto
Rico, reports that the condition of af-
fairs there remains the same and that
no new cases have been reported.
The health officers at Galveston, Tex.
and at other ports along our southern
coast are conducting a thoroughgoing
crusade against rats. Word has also
been received from Surgeon StOner,
chief of the medical staff at Ellis is
land. that the rodents are being rapid
ly exterminated along the New York
water front
Great Danger of Spread.
DR.. Henry Skinner of the Philadel-
phia Academy of Natural Sciences and
an authority on economic entomology
believes that the danger of the spread
Of the disease can hardly be overesti-
mated.
"The plague is fast spNading be-
cause the world is growing smaller"
says DR.. Skinner. Facilities for trans
portation both of cargoes and of per-
sons are now so great and such speed |
is made by steamships that the trans
mission of disease is vastly facilitated.
''The danger from bubonic plague in
this country has been greatly under
estimated. I look for it to get foot.
hold in San Francisco or other ports |
from eastern ships at any time, and
once it has obtained a foothold its |
spread is rapid and death almost GER
tain.
America will almost certainly be af. |
ficted with the dread plague unless
the government takes measures to have |
every rat on board any vessel from in
fected ports killed; also a stop should |
be put TO the transportation of plants
from eastern cities"
