PNEUMONIC PLAGUE
SPREADS IN CHINA

PEKIN. Feb. 19.-There is a seri-
Gus outbreak of pneumonia plague
in Northern Manchuria. Consular
dispatches report fifteen deaths last
Sunday at Harbin. One suspect has
been isolated in Chang Chun. Rail-
way travel has been almost sus-
pended since Monday. One train
weekly is allowed to carry tested
passengers between Tsitsihar and
Manchuli, all passengers, including
even those carrying physicians
credentials of freedom from tho dis
ease, being prohibited between
Tsitsihar and Harbin.
The cold spell makes the out
break more serious and early warm
weather alone can prevent an cpl
demic threatening all of China as
in 1917, say specialists. ~.- . ..

EUROPEAN MAILS
EXAMINED TO END
TYPHUS DANGERS
Extraordinary Steps Are
Taken to Prevent Spread
From Port.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1s.-The fight
against spread Of typhus in the
United States was extended tonight
to include examination of all in
coming foreign mail received at
this port.
DR.. Royal S. Copeland. city health.
commissioner and leader in the cru
sade against the disease, placed in
spectors from his department in the
foreign mall division of the post
ONCE to make certain that all mail
is free from vermin before It is dis
tributed.
Vermin Found.
Cases of immigrants infested
with the typhus louise who have
been passed by Federal immigra-
tion authorities continue 20 develop
in increasing numbers. OF 901 i'm
migrants re-eXamined by city
health inspectors within the last
twenty-four hours. at steamship
docks and railway stations, Sc were
found to have vermin in their
clothes or baggage and were sent
to a hospital for delousing.
DR.. Frank ]. Monaghan, deputy
commissioner, reported that most of
the immigrants found thus infested
were women. He considered this
fact additionally dangerous because
of the probability of them comInu-
nicating the vermin to children in
their care.
OF the immigrants examined un-
der MOnaghan's direction, 434 were
handled at the Battery following
their discharge from the govern
mCnt immigration station at Ellis
Island Seven of these were in
tested. Fourteen of the .43 exam
med at Grand Central Station were
detained, as were II of those in
spected at the Pennsylvania Station.
Sent to Hospital.
A trainload of immigrants coming
here from Philadelphia was held up
at Hoboken where twenty were seq
regated and sent to a hospital for
cleansing.
Copeland, who previously had de-
clared that Ellis Island is more
dangerous than any incoming ship"
pointed to the decreasing average
of infested immigrants released
from. that station as indicating close
inspection by Federal officials. He
had charged that immigrants which
had previously been examined and
passed by city inspectors had be-
come infested with vermin on the
island.
No new cases of typhus had been
reported to the Health Department,
and those persons now suffering
from the disease in detention sta
.tions were said to be improving.

determine whether the Dempsey-Car-
pentier contest was conducted as prize
fight. and would offer the fighter and
