SANITARY Only Five New Cases of Cholera Re- ported in Now York. i 38 Hl MARKED ABATEMENT IN BROOKLYN. fl il 4g i rs F i ; i REPORTS FROM THE ISLANDS. fi i aa? MEETING OF THE HEALTH BOARD. iL 2 é i Fae s The epidemic continued to abate in this city yester- ‘day, and st was evident that the cholera was decidedly onthe wane. Should we havea returm of very het weather, there may possibly be a temporary increase of cholera cases, but all danger of an epidemic cholera in New York this summer is about over, and the people can keep their houses clean, diet regularly and keep their minds easy for the remainder of the season, ATTEMPTING A SENSATION, ‘The Metropolitan Board of Health and thore preseat ‘besides, were somewhat astonished yesterday even ing, when, at » meeting of the board, Dr, Crane, asserted that-true reports of cholera cases had not been given in New ¥ork, and further stated that double the number of cnses-had occurred to what had been reported. He also declared ‘that the epidemic was quite as general in New York as in Brooklyn, but the not faithfully recorded. The facts here show the above assertions to be untrue. Last week there were one hundred and six deaths from cholera in Brook- lyn and the public institutions, while there were but cighty-eight deaths in New York, including the two cholera hospitals, Bellevue Hoepital and the City Prison. There 4s not the slightest doubt that New York has been ‘healthier than the City of Churches, so far as the cholera was concerned. Brooklyn has been breathing her own poison in the filth of the Twelfth ward. Cholera has been and is absolutely less in this city than there, and simply because the local causes have been greater in Brooklyn than in our immediate midst. Dr. Harrig, the Registrar of Vital Statistics, asserted that hie report of cholera deaths ie as correct as that of Brooklyn, aud ag be controls the registration in both cities be ceriainly oucht to know, OYPICIAL LIST OF CASES, The following is the official list of cholera caser, as reported op the bulletin of the Health Board, for the thavepue, Died August 13. i 55 Tih 4 4 i FB ' / ! i i i HE BERE F i t f : iz E i [ ie i t ii §. i f if | f i f | j He bil FA £F HY Ee ft = e g B i i i HH is al } if & res i & i a4 & ES 8 $ £ Hi g F : 4 Rf Hl taf if i é ‘ i i i ts i ; E i il i dour hours endii Denobue, 54 Oak street.
