GRECIAN SURPRISE

Rome, Oct. 29.-1.30 P. M
The report that Greece has land

ranta, thus taking possession of
the southern part of Albania,
which gives them entire control
of the Corfu channel, is causing
a profound impression in Rome.
AS this step on the part of

Finds Malaria Bearing
Mosquito Breeding in
Newark Sewer Basins

Specimens of the culex anopheles
have been found in this city, accord
ing to L. G. Mullikin, an inspector
of the Essex County Mosquito Ex-
termination Commission. This type
of mosquito is dangerous because it
carries malaria germs. 1t is with this
variety of the pest that the residents
of tropical countries have to con-
tend.
Inspector Mullidn says he found
several specimens of the culex an
aopheles in sewer basins near Os-
borne terrace and Schneider avenue.
He said they were the first he dis
coVered> in this city. He attributed
their presence here to the continued
rainfall. He said he did not think
there were enough of the pests of this
brand in the city to cause any alarm.
Inspector Mullil1in volunteered the
information that sections inhabited
by the more wealthy residents breed
more mosquitoes than the congested
districts. He said this might be
caused by the carelessness of the
former class.
He pointed out that any receptacle
which holds water is q breeding place
Tor mosquitoes. Oftentimes, the in
spector said, he found the pests
breeding in flower pots, fern dishes,
roof leaders and the like.
