It is well to understand how, carnestly the United States ! | Government medical officers in PovRRRwRRTT T T charge of the situation at New Orleans, are working, not only PPPPOPPRRT TS to eradicate the disease, but also especially to confine it to the % limits of the Louisiana city. 8 The commerce of New Or- leans is carried by vessels and « Yy rail. It is possible for the in- 4 fected rat, with his burden of § fleas to transmit the disease to % human victims, to travel by eith- # or route to distant cities & and ports, and both outlets are & heing guarded by the most ad- 2 vanced scientific practice. | In reply to inquiries by Flor- ina’s Health Officers for a state-, ~ nrent of these methods, the fol- fowing reply, under date of July } 24, from Assistant Surgeon Gen- & cral W. C. Rucker, of the L'nitg:d 3 States Public Health Service, in! 2 chatge of the work at New Or'-‘"g teans is important to Florida. 1% “Nine cases of human plagnef'sfi have occurred, the first being found on June 19, 1914 Ot » these nine cases four are dead.: - Eight cases of rodent plague have been found.” (These fig-1 ures at the present writing, July 20, have heen increased to thir- ¥ teen human cases and twenty | infected rats.) 1% “A force of 100 men under the & Qirection of six officers is now at work trapping rats in an en- Ueavor to map out exactly the Shipmasters and agents are noti- fied that vessels must be fended off 8 feet from wharf and gang- area of rodent infection.

Vessels are fumigated | & thoroughly for rat destruction, | & and a certificate to that effect is|@ viven the master of the vessel. | “All this work is being doneja under the immediate supervision|& of a medical officer of the Ser-|¥ In cases where vessels in|# the smallest respect fail to com-1& ply with all of these regulations, a note is made on the face of their port sanitary statement that they have not complied with out going quarantine regu- lations in force at this port, and no certificate of fumigation is given them. There has been a <1i~|n-~i1‘lun on the |';l|‘l of some fc reign vessels to be a little care- less in placing rat guards. This, however, is being rapidly over- come, and you may be assured that in no case will a certificate e issued to any vessel that has not fully complied with all the regulations outlined above. “There is no cause for alarm cither in this port or in foreign places.” In addition Dr. Rucker sent a telegram regarding the situation at New Orleans under date of July 2sth in substance as fol- lows: “My professional and opinion is that passenger traffic between New Orleans and Flori- da may be permitted to continue without danger to Florida. In the hubonic type of the discase and the absence of suctorial in- sects, the human being is a neg- | ligible factor in transmission of the plague.
