The dis- case was at its worst each year during the hot, dry months of March, April and May. nearly or quite disappearing during September, October, November ‘and De- cember. It will be noted that the number » cases in 1301 exceeded that in 1900 by rile the number of deaths was two and a half times as great. and ntage of mortality among per- cked increased from 73.4 in 1900 T in 1901 “On account of tWe Important part which house rats are known to play in the distribution of bubonic plague, a sys- tematic campaign was inaugurated | Against these rodents jn Manila. Police- men, sanitary in rs and specially | appointed rat-catchers were furnished with traps oison. and both traps and n were di ibuted to private indi- nals under proper restrictions. A bounty was paid for all rats turned over to the health author s, and stations were established at convenient points throughout the city where they could be received. FEach rat was tagged with the #treet and number of the building or lot from which it came. was dropped into a strong antiseptic solution, and eventually sent to the biological laboratory, where it was subjected to a bacteriological ex- amination for plague. “Buildings in which plague rats were taken were treated exactly as were those where the disease attacked the human occupants. The bacteriological examina- tion of rats enabled the board of health to follow the pest into its most secret haunts and fight it there. and was the most im- factor in the winning of the great ss which was ultimately achleved. ‘With very few exceptions, there -was no recurrence of plague in buildings which had been disinfected and renovated. As center after center of infection was | found and destroyed, the percentage of diseased rats began to decrease, and in January, 1802, when, judging from the history of previous vears, plague should have again begun to spread among hu- | man beings, there was not a single case. In February one case occurred. In March there were two cases, as against 63 in March of the preceding Yyear, and before April the disease had completely disap- peared.” FROM THE CONSULAR REPORTS.
