BOATMAN FROM INFECTED Dll‘ TRICT DIES OF DISEASE IN GERMAN CAPITAL. VESSEL MOORED IN HEART OF CITY EVERY PRECAUTION TAKEN. TO FIGHT PLAGUE AND LITTLE CONCERN EXISTS. Berlin, Sept. 25—The official bul- letin announces 8 fresh cases of chol- era and 3 deaths in the ‘st 24 hours, making the totals 243 Cases and 81 deaths. Of the new cases one is in Berlip, the first which has occurred here. It is that of a canal boatman, who is dead. He came from Lands- berg, on the river Warthe, where three or four cases of cholera have been discovered. The canal boat was moored in the heart of the city. The sanitary police took the boatman’s wife and six children and another boatman and his wife and child, who were all living on the canal boat, to the quarantine barracks, disinfected their living quarters and ordered the boat’s cargo not to be touched. Every arrangement was made here long ago to deal with cholera so no concern can be said to exist. SUICIDES ON THE INCREASE. Germans Differ as to the Cause of Self-Murder. Berlin, Sept. 25.—Several distress- ing instances of children’s suicides have occurred since the autumn school term began. This has brought on a discussion of the comditions of school and home life and endeavors are he- ing made to trace the causes of that increasing feebleness of the desire to live, which, it is affirmed, the 11,000 suicides of 1903 indicate. The statis’ tics of children’s self-murder in Sax- ony show that although only seven persons under fourteen committed sui- cide in 1901-2 the number rose to iwenty-ope in 1903. The snicides of adulte in Saxony inereased same time from 1,388 to 1,427. The causes of suicide in Germany are regarded as being exceedingly subtle and in the current discussions the personal views on the subject have generally been decided by the observer’s opinions on other questions. The socialists account for the suicides by economic reasons which, they say, result in making it harder .to get sub- sistence, darken life generally. and throw shadows over the livee of the children. The clerical view is that the absence of faith, tbe increase of irreligion and the growth of sensual materialism ex- plain. the: weakening desire for life and that a revival of spiritual aims would lessen suicides by increasing the seremty TRAMPS WORST BRAKEMAN Hurled From Train and Probably Fa. tally Hurt.
