SOME FATTENED AT SEWERAGE OUTLET.
TYPHOID FEVEII RESULTS.
(Special to Times.) Wellington, last night. Sonic time ago a report camo from a waterside town in the South Island of an outbreak of typhoid supposed to have arisen from eating oysters. Investigation by the health officers have confirmed the suspicion, it being found that the oysters had been fattened in the vicinity of a sowarage outlet, and that that was the reason of the outbreak. It is believed that this is only one of many cases whore succulent bivalves are made marketable in unclean nurseries.
