LEPROSY.
NEW ZEALAND CASES,
By Telegraph—Press Association. Christchurch, Last Night. The number of lepers in New Zealand has decreased from dive to two, and three patients, two Europeans, are still confined at Quail Island. In conversation with a reporter to-day, the Hon. Dr. Pomare, Native Representative in the Cabinet, said that some time ago there were four patients on the Island, two Europeans and two natives, but the natives had been cured and had left the Island, while the fifth sufferer, a Maori woman, died a few days ago. Dr. Pomare said that all the latest methods of treatment were being adopted at Quail Island.
