The organism is unquestionably the cause of plague, as in addi- tion to the evidence of animal experimentation there are several instances of fatal infection of men working with the organism in laboratories far removed from any focus of. the disease, and finally the very unfortunate accident at Manila^ Where cholera vaccine mixed with a culture of B. pestis by mistake was injected into men and caused fatal bubonic plague.
