Nanking. Sept. 10.
Sixteen cases of cholera, two of them fatal, have been discovered so far among War refugees from Shanghai, Dr. J. Hong Liu, director of the National Health Administration reported to-day.
This was the first time in the last five years, Dr. Liu said, that the disease has broken out in the capital.
As a preventive measure, Dr. revealed that he had already requested the Nanking-Shanghai Railway officials to put all passengers from Shanghai, especially war refugees, in quarantine before bringing them to Nanking.—Central News.
