Bubonic Plague
 at Vera Cruz Has Killed Five

Verta Cruz, June 1.-President Will son has offered to send hospital ships, nurses, doctors and medical supplies to Vera Cruz to assist in combating the bubonic plague which has made it's appearance here, eleven authentl- cated cases having developed to date and five deaths resulting.
 The history of the outbreak appear to date back to May 15, when the first case is believed to have developed. The victim in this case died on May g, and the second victim on May "A.
 Ur to that time it had not been suspected that the disease from winch tke deaths occurred was of the bubonic type, although the symp- toms now described indicate this to have been the case. On May 27, how ever. another case of the same na- ture appeared, and upon thorough coordination it was found to be bu- bonic.
 Since that date there have been found the eleven proven cases noted five of the eleven victims dying. !
 Judging from the individuals at tackled and the locations of their homes it seems to be established that the local point of the outbreak is the warehouses of one of the docking companies. u is considered certain that rats transmitted the plague, as recently number of dead rodents
