THE CITY’S HEALTH. A Favorable Showing Made by the Health Officer's Annual Report. A DECREASE IN THE DEATH RATR—OPREATIONS: OF THE DEPARTMENT FOR A YRAR—THE REMOVAL OF ASHES—THE GROWTH OF PUBLIC SENTIMENT IN THR MATTER OF SANITARY PLUMBING. Health Omcer Townshend to-day submitted tothe District Commissioners his annual report for the last fiscal year. The report is accom- panied by a number of extended and compre- hensive tables, which the health officer says “present a most satisfuctory showing 95 regards the death rate of the District for the year. As compared with the year 1885 we find a decrease in the death rate of 2.19 per 1,000 per annum, which means, of course, the lives of 449 of our people. As compared with the mean morwality foreleven years we find a reduction of 1.42 per 1,000 perannum. This is most gratifying as an evidence of the increased healthfuiness of the District, and what 1s more consoling to us, as guardians of the health of the people, the deuth rate trom the zymotic or preventable. class Of diseases is reduced from 5.82 to4.46 per 1,000 per annum the reduction being, as is shown, a continues cutting down of the rate of mortality from this class of diseases.” OPERATIONS OF THE SERVICE. The following is a synopsis of the work per- formed in the various branches of the service during the year: There were 19,621 nuisances Teported and abated; 45 ‘5 pounds of meat, 103,496 pounds of fish, 14,6804 bushek of fruitand vegetables, 3,514 bushels of oysers, 116,117 clams, and 141,059 crabs condemned as unfit for food, Examinations and reports Were made on 1 648 citizens’ complaints, L085 official letters witten, 1,392 official nofices were ixeued, 79 cases were Telerred to the altor- ney and 39 to the chemist for action, There were 3,201 animals impounded, and the ton- tractor for the removal of offal vook away 8,8U8 dead animals, 14,897 tons of garbag abd 24,244 barrels of night-soil, The pliysi- clans tothe poor treated 16,901 patient, of which number 5,480 were white and 11471 were colored. ‘There were 4,965 burial perruits of all Kinds issued, and 456 orders issued tor burials at the public expense, There vere 3,021 inspections of plumbing work made, and 125 inspections of houses made in which tere was no drainage, but yards were. counecied With sewers, 173 transcripts from the records of births, marriages und deaths were furnished applicants, and 34 permits issued for obsiruc- lon of travel on streets on account of serious illuess of residents. ‘There has been, the report says, a notable de- crease in the number of nuisances iound in alleys, attributable main.y to the progress o! improvements, as, when paved and sewered, alleys are rarely found in a s.ate of nuisance. THE REMOVAL OF ASHES, There were 684 nuisances reporied under the head of ashes. The heulth officer urges again this year that action be taken looking to the re- moval of ashes trom dwellings at the public expense. Keterring to bis former reports he says, “I have pointed out the necessity for such uction as a sanitary measure, and pictured the manner ip which many nuisances result from the accumulations of ashes On premises, ‘There are many large deposits now on open juts, in the unimproved alleys, uud in the yards of private premises. These piles invite ihe uddition of o.wer refuse of various kinds, and ure a constant source of nuisunce. if we could succeed in getting the present accumula- tiuns removed, I think that the reguiarremoval of the ashes from dwellings could be accom- plished at the same cost as is annuaily paid tor tue culiection of garbage.” He suggests again the feasibility o1 comuining the removal of asbes with the removal ol gaibuge.

A long report trom the inspector of plumbing, Mr. Samael A. inson, is id {Misconuection tse health obedstebeens ees plumbing regulations whieh went into effect: under authority of law-in the year 1881 in this city were the first tions | kind forced by aby muni ay fe ate : eshte {MADR uke ‘com, beurs evidence of the value regard to the dangeroas condition of many of the old houses in this city, where terra cotta, Pipe still exist under the floor, and where there is no ventilation for the drains or traps of fixtures, I secured an analysis of the air of one Of the best houses built about fifteen years: ago and herewith enclose the same, This house has bath rooms on the second and third floors, with stationary wash basins in the bed rooms. T found all the plumbing fixtures in the house trapped, but no extension of the soil or waste Pipes above the roof, and no ventilation of the ‘traps of the fixtures, Few householders know the dangers to which they are exposed in oc- cupying such houses, and the public will not be suite until landtords and agents are held responsible before the law and prose- cuted tor their criminal negligence.” The analysis referred to was made by Prof. E. J. De Smedt, District chemist, who, after rg that he found in the condensed moisture .9: milligrammes of free ammonia per liter parts per million and 1.35 milligrammes albummoid ammonia, says the condensed moisture was also tested by the gelatine test, which proved it to be putreseible aiter twenty-lour hours. The microscoptc examination showed the existence of germs and bucteria in the moisture. The chemist adds: “The enormous percentage of orgunic matter and the other tests and exami- nations indicate the emanation of sewer gax in this room, The necessity of having plumbii based on éclentific principles and its thoroug! ventilation is hereby demonstrated.” BAD CONDITION OF SCHOOL HOUSES. Mr. Robinson states that he has recently made a thorough inspection of all the public school buildings in the District, and he urges the importance of additional appropriations for the reconstruction of the drainage system Of the old school houses, erected beiore the reg- ulations governing such work were in opera- tion here. He thinks a special appropriation Of not less than $15,000 will be required to put By old school houses in a proper sanitary con- jon, ‘A CHANGE IN PUBLIC SENTIMENT. “A retrospect,” Mr. Robinson says, “shows a marked change in the public sentiment upon matters of sanitation within the periods of the operations of his office. The standard of com- fort, he says, has been materially elevated since then. On'the part of tenants indifference has wiven way to the greatest solicitude, and it is gratifying to know that renters now frequently tind out the plumbers who did the work, and | rn inquire as to his character, and search” wi great care for the reputation’of a house they in tend to occupy. Then a tenant was satisfied if the slops disappeared when thrown Icto the sink, and cared not it the soil was saturated with putrifying sewage irom disjointed drains, Now the removal to the public sewer must be Tupid und absolute. ‘Then the waste pipe irom kitchen sink might be untrapped and with open joints exuding greasy —_accumula- Hons which beiouled the atmosphere of the kitchen without protest or comment. Now the sink waste must be properly laid to prevent greasy uccumulations—the trap must beim place and securely ventilated. ‘Ihen the sink liself might be a foul receptacle boxed in und about with decaying wood, which might cunceul the accumulating nastiness of an un- Udy servant without a suspicion of any un- cleanliness. Now tne kitchen sink must be a neat and shapely fixture, with its surround- ings open to uil benuiders. Then the laundry tuus might be of soft aud porous wood satu- rated with filth or disease germs, loathsome to sight and smeli—the vehicle for cont.gion Wayuout oujection on the purt of the indiierent tenant or beipless lodger. How many helpless children have been ‘suerificed through the proud of diseuse by wooden wash trays! Now this fixture must be obsolutely impervious and a8 open as the day. Then tbe water closet inignt be nauseating with accumulated filtb, aud placed in dark and unveutiluted rooms: the bath tub might be untrapped and the basin disgusting in all its ways. No complaint would ve made so long as these Were ~ecurely boxed In, and the waste motter did not run through the ceiling below. Now lee cioset 1nust lave no conceuled surface to be polluted, the bach and basin must be trapped aud ventilated, the spaces about must be open to inspection, aud the room mast have open air Yeuulation aud ample light. ‘Th Migut begin atthe fxiure and terminate any- Where; now the connection with the public sewer tust be isolated iron the dwelling, with the ruuning trap and vem openingyand open enwabove the rvot, and tlirongh ali lis course the skilliul uand Of 4 master workman must ive ussurance of absolete provection in every oi The profession of heating does not occupy a more fnportant place in the economy ot do- tesile Lue Luan the trade ot plumbing, and its avenues should be guarded trom the operations of the boten and the scamp with the greatest solicitude, For several years 1 ave repeated my recomendations tor greater safeguards in tue suatter Of registration, and I must here re- new them.

Policy in Regard to Ire. nd Ey pt and Balgaria. Lord Salisbury, speuking at Lord Mayor Han- son’s banquet in tne Guild hall, in London, last night, said the conservatives oceupied a posi- tion on Irish affairs which it was impossitile to misinterpret. Thelr business was to legislate in favor of the integrity of the empire and to | enforce laws which had long been neglected and trodden underfoot. He believed the conserva- tives could claim that public confidence was somewhat restored and that the relations be- tween landlord and tenant were better than formerly, “Foreign affairs,” he continued, “were at resent of bigh importance, the affairs of Ezypt ing Of special Interest. The stay of the Eng- lsh In Egypt had beer upheld by politicians of all parties as one of limited duration. That Umit was not a time limit, but a limit of work, Which England was bound to accomplish by pledges so distinct and so often repeated that she could not retreat, The English could not leave Egypt until that country was secure rom foreign oppression, and until order bad been re- stored in domestic affairs, The government Was encouraged In this task by growing proofs of advancing prosperity in Egypt. Her finances were more promising than they bad ever been, although they had never reac polnt that wouid enable the government to clare Its task fulfilled. Further, England could not leave Ezy pt uuu the latter's independence of foreign Interference had been secured.” Referring to Bulgaria, Lord Salisbury satd the sympathies of the’ English people were | aroused by the spectacle of her struggie for in- dependence, and that the langu matic menace used towards Bulgaria by a | ropean state hud caused the deepest regret.

Butin this instance she would not accept the responsibility of isolated action. The gov- ernment’s polley was shaped in tarmony with Uhet of Austria, He trasted that the peace would not be disturbed, and that, under the in- fluence of public upinion, the infant liberties of Bulgaria would not be inipaired. Lord Salisbury in proposing a toast in honor of the lord mayor, said he believed the muntel- al Institutions Would last as long as other ritisb institutions. He congratulated the lord mayor upon his belug the dispenser of the city’s help to relieve the distress oi the poor, whose prospects he hoped the reviving tradé would ry ‘The lord mayor, responding, promised to in- quire immeuiately into the extent of excep- tional distress, and to endeavor to discover the best remedy for its relief. Speaker Peele, responding to the toast “The House of Commons,” congratulsted the mem- bers upon the fuct that a third session in 1886 woula not be needed. Lord George Haniliton, first lord of the ad- miralty, replied to the toast “The Navy.” He said he’ hoped a naval reserve would soon be formed that would be equal to all emergencies.
