A Decline tn the Number of Deaths Reported Last Woek. Dr. Hammett, the health officer, presents the following report for the week ending July 15, 1899: Number of deaths, 137; white, 59; col- ored, 78. Death rate per 1,000 per annum: White, 15.7; colored, 45.0; total population, 25.0; 75 were under five years of age, 66 were under one year old and 21 over sixty years; 29 of the deaths occurred in hospitals and public institutions. The deaths by classes wore as follows: Zymotic, 55; constitutional, 23; local 42; developmeutal, 11; violence, 6. The prin- cipal causes of death were: Croup, 1: diphthe- ria, 2; consumption, 15; diarrhoeal. 40; typhoid fever, 4; malarial fever,2; pneumonia, 2; bron- chitis, 1; measles, 1; meningitis, 2. Births re- ported: 28 white males, 29 white females, 25 colored males, 19 colored females. Marri reported: 18 white, 5 colored. Still-births re- ported: 5 white, 9 colored. There was a decline, said the thealth officer, of eight in the number of deaths during the last week, uotwithstanding the continued hot weather. The total mortality was 187. In the Same period Inst July the death list amounted to 180. The city at present does not seem to be afflicted with any special aggravated forms of , other than the usual summer complaints among children. More than one- half of all who died since the last report were children under five years old. There were seventy-five of these, of whom sixty-six were infants under twelve months of age. Pneumonia, influenza and scarlet fever seem to have almost wholly subsided. There was but one new case of the latter, in a mild form, re- ported. Six new cases of diphtheria were re- ported, with two deaths therefrom. Up to this time in July last year there occurred 197 fatal casos from diarrhoeal complaints, while at the same time this month they numbered but 78, Should this improved condition as to the mala- dies justly chargeable tu unsanitary surround- ings continue through the remainder of the summer, it will afford direct practical ilius- tration of the efficacy of the general cleaning up which the city has received during the last few months, ———_.
