London, England, March 16 , 1901. Sir : I have the honor to make the following report for the week ended to-day: There has been a decrease in the number of cases of smallpox occurring in Glasgow, but on Thursday 19 new cases were reported, and there had been a total since the outbreak of 1,490 cases and 178 deaths. Gases still continue to occur in the towns about Glasgow. "No case of plague has been reported in Great Britain during the week. The reports of this disease from Cape Colony are, however, rather dis- quieting. The official report for the week ended March 2 states that there were 24 new cases, 2 deaths, and 4 suspects ; for the week ended March 9, 50 cases, 18 deaths, and 11 suspects. Several Europeans have been attacked, and a number of natives have been found dead from the disease. The rats are reported to be u trekking " from Cape Town in great numbers, and at Simonstown the rats are reported to be dying from plague. The official plague report from Mauritius is as follows : The weeks ended February 28 and March 8, there were in the island 12 and 6 fresh cases of plague, and 18 and 5 deaths from the disease, respectively.
