Consul Fee Presents Startling Facts to the State Department. ‘The State Department has made public, through the consular reports, one of the reports upon which it based its statement to the Navy Departfhent relative to the famine in India, This particular report is from United States Consul Fee at Bombay, and presents some startling figures to illus- trate the extent of the visitation. Mr. Fee says that notwithstanding the season of acute distress has hardly commenced, the returns far exceed those recorded during the init stages of the famine three years ago. It then affected only 1,000,000 persons; now the figure is 3,500,000, and the daily expenditure is placed at $4,000. The famine area covers 300,000 square miles, with a population of 40,000,000, and there is a further area of about 145,000 square miles, with a population of 21,000,000, in which more or less scarcity and distress prevail, and where relief already has been, or will be, given. The consul says that the applications for relief are overtaxing the state authorities and increasing at an ap- palling rate. The number of applicants at the relief works during the last week in January increased 250,000 and brought up the total to 3,500,000, and the most trying period was still two months distant. In conclusion the consul expresses the fear that the South African war will so divert the attention and contributions of English- men as to oblige India alone to fight the plague and famine. B. ©.
