CoNSTANTINOPLE. April 9.-The

serious that the American chamber
of commerce has cabled the American

there seems to be no possibility of
checking the epidemics among them
so long as present conditions con-
tinue. Meanwhile there are continual
escapes of individuals among the
refugees who are mingling with the
cityS population, threatening the
spread of disease here and menacing
all Europe, the authorities fear.
