Just when the trict republicans will reorganize he could not say. 7 The Slight Rise in the Death Rate Continued Last Week. ‘The slight rise in the death rate for the week before last in the District, as com- pared with the several preceding reporta, continued through the week past.

Most of the increase of deaths was among ! under five years of age, mainly due to en- teric and gastric derangements, resulting probably from the influence of the intense and continued atmospheric disturbances of the week. The fatal malarial cases were few, thus following the same low rate as pre’ throughout the fall up to the present date.
