Dr. Debut Finds Bubonic Bucilli In
Dead Japanese.
SAN _ FRANCISCO, June 30.——Dr.
Babat, bacteriologist of the board of
health, has just returned a report of his
examinationsirof the glands of the two
to escape from the steamer Nippon
Maru, now held in quarantine on account
of three suspicious deaths which occurred
on the vessel on her trip from China and
Japan to this port via Honolulu. Dr.
Babat found the bacilli to be those of the
bubonic plague and to make his deter-
mination doubly sure will propagate their
growth. The bodies of the Japanese were
cremated, and Dr. Lawlor, the health
officer of this city, states there is no dan:
ger of the disease breaking out here,
as every precaution has been taken to
prevent anything of the kind.
The passengers on board the Nippon
Mara have telegraphed the secretary of
the treasury protesting against their de-
tention at quarantine, as they assert that
there is no proof that the victims who
died en route from the orient were suffer-
ing from the plague. The local health
officials. however, state that the passen‘
gers will not be released until there is
absolute certainty the disease does not
exist on board the steamer.
