PUBLIC HEALTH REPORTS.

UNITED STATES. DEATH OF PRESIDENT McKINLEY. On September 14, President William McKinley died, the cause of death being a gunshot wound of the abdomen received one week before at the hands of an assassin. He was buried September 19, at Canton, Ohio. It is fitting to here record the death of the Chief Executive of the Nation, under whose general oversight the affairs of this Bureau and the Department to which it belongs have been conducted, and under whose special authorization some of its most important transactions have been performed. To the admiration and love for President McKinley, inspired by his statesmanship, his manhood, and personal qualities, there should be added a just appreciation of his prompt response to requests for action in matters pertaining to the public health. It is recalled that at the close of the Spanish-American war he immediately provided by Executive order for the necessary quarantine restraints in Cuba and Porto Rico and subsequently in the Philippines. Later he gave his support to the measures put in operation by the Treassury Department to insure safety from impoitation of disease with the returning troops from Cuba; and in 1899 when the yellow fever appeared in the National Soldiers' Home near Hampton, Va., his solici- tude both for the public safety and for the 3,000 veterans of the civil war who were the inmates of that institution was such that he requested and received daily from this Bureau a report stating the progress of the disease and the success of the measures being taken to prevent its spread. He has promptly approved the detail of medical officers to serve in the offices of the consulates at many foreign ports, giving them a status which could only be secured by the Presi- dent's signature. He has approved of special commissioners to investigate special diseases. In the effort to establish a sanatorium for the tuberculous patients of the U. S. Marine-Hospital Service, founded and now conducted not only for the benefit of the patients themselves, but in the interest of the public health, President McKinley, by Executive order, on request of the Secretary of the Treasury, promptly set aside the former military 163 2149 September 20,1901 2150 reservation at Fort Stanton, N. Mex., for this avowed purpose, thus indicating his interest and approval of the measures toward the sup- pression of this contagious disease. In these matters, as in all others, our deceased President manifested the high executive qualities and sound sympathetic judgment which will cause his memory to live in the respect and affection of the people. [Reports to the Surgeon-General United States Marine-Hospital Service.] Influenza in Georgetown, S. C. GEORGETOWN, S. C., September 9, 1901. SiIR: I have the honor to report that there exists in this city a mild form of influenza, which was first considered as hay fever, in consider- ation of the present rice harvest season, but which must be now reported as above stated after careful investigation.

The Monthly Bulletin, says: The mortality of the month was excessive, being above the average of July, which usually has the largest number of deaths of any month in the year. The average temperature was several degrees above the normal, especially during the first few days, and the increase of mor- tality is chiefly due to its effects. The city of New York reports 1,155 deaths from insolation and in the entire State 1,283 deaths were ascribed to the effects of heat. There were 8 deaths reported from lightning stroke, and 111 deaths occurred from drowning, altogether making over 2153 September 20,19Mo 2,000 deaths, attributed to accidents and violence, mnch beyond any former record. The acute diarrheal mortality was also high in the metropolis, but not excessive in the rest of the State, being hardly noticeable in the rural part of the Statte. The rural death rate was 13.0 per 1,000 population, the urban being 23.0, while that of the entire State was about 20.0. Diarrheal diseases caused 22.5 per cent of the deaths of the maritime district, or three times the ratio of the rest of the State There were 400 deaths from pneumonia out of 602 from all acute res- piratory diseases, and of 400 deaths from diseases of the urinary system (outside of New York City) 240 were from Bright's aIisease. Smallpox is reported as causing 89 deaths, a number in excess of that of any heretofore recorded, 74 having occurred in June; of these, 80 occurred in New York City, where about 250 new cases developed dur- ing the month cf July, the last four weeks showing a decrease. There were 5 deaths in Yonkers, 1 in Peekskill, 1 in Hempstead, and 1 each in New Berlin and Whitehall. Since the first of July smallpox has existed at 20 localities outside of New York City, and during August 22 new cases have been reported, the only new localities reporting dur- ing the month being Schenevus and Tupper Lake, in each of which 1 case imported from without has come to light. There is a general dim- inution in its prevalence. Saratoga Springs.-Month of August, 1901. Estimated population, 12,400.

Two of these men were taken sick August 21, and were sent by rail to the civil hospital, at Matanzas, on the 27th. From the above, it would appear that Havana was the source of infection.

Four vessels were inspected and passed on arrival and 2 were passed without inspection; 6 bills of health were issued to vessels leaving this port; 63 health certificates were issued to persons leaving the island; 71 pieces of baggage were inspected and passed, and 2 pieces passed without inspection.
