SAN FRAKCISCO. May 30. The City Board of Health today held -an autopsy on the body of a Chinaman found last right in a Chinese undertaker's establish ment. A member of the board stated that the result of the autopsy strongly Indicated that the Chinese died of the bubonic plague. In order fully to demon strate whether or not it was a case of plague, cultures were taken from the glands for the purpose of making an ani mal inoculation. Dr. Shrady, or New York, assisted in the autopsy. Dr. Kel logg, bacteriologist of the Board of Health, was asked if the case was simi lar to the nine already reported. He said: "No, it is not. In fact, we have not yet had two cases alike, and this last one is different from any of the former cases. It has not yet been verified, but all indi cations point to the conclusion that It is another case of plague. "We shall use the same test as In the others, and after the cultures have sufficiently developed, will inoculate a number of animals with the bacillus. That is the only infallible test." According to Dr. "Williamson, president of the Board of Health, the cordon around the skirts of Chinatown may continue for six weeks. "Other things being eQual," said he, "we might feel Justified in raising the quaran tine in six weeks that is to say if the cleanliness of the district Is such as to preclude the possibility of infection re maining In the various habitations of the Chinese and others living there." The doctor then referred to the deduc tions of Dr. Shrady, of New York, whom he described as "one of the most eminent specialists in the United States." Dr. Shrady has not only Indorsed the action of the Board of Health, but has stated that every death reported by the board as having resulted from plague was ac curately reported by the board's bacte riologist. Dr. O'Brien, who has charge of the force inspecting the Chinese district, was asked if any cases of resistance had been met with by the Inspectors on their rounds. "Only a few," said he. "The doors were barricaded in some instances, but as a rule, the Chinese have offered no stubborn resistance. They are rather Inclined to yield to the wishes of the Inspectors, and In a few days we expect that all trouble In this respect will have pasied." The mall service In the Chinese quarter will not be Impaired. A fumigating sta tion has been established, and everything passing out is treated. This morning there was great activity along the ropes that surrounded the quarantined district, and the Chinese had to resort to many de vices in order to obtain their supplies of food. As market time approached, nu merous butcher wagons and delivery carts from grocery Tioupes drew up along the line, and Chinese, laden with pork and other eatables, were soon engaged in fer rying the supplies to the quarter. The Chinese merchants are preparing to Institute legal proceedings against the Board of Health to compel that body tc lift the embargo. The Chinese, they say, would be willing to aid the health officials If an epidemic existed, but, knowing that such Is not the case, they refuse to sub mit to being shut off from the outside world without at least some show of re sistance. - The quarantine- Is belngrIgorus4y -enforced, 159 policemen being detailed to maintain a cordon around the district bounded by California. Kearney. Mont gomery avenue Broadway and Stockton streets. The parts of blocks fronting on California and Kearney streets are not included, as they are occupied by whites. Kcpes are stretched Across the streets, and the Chinese are closely hemmed in. even the secret exits through some blocks being closed against them. The Asiatics took the quarantine stoic ally. They had warning of what was coming, and many left the district before the arrival of the police. The proportion of those who fled was small, however, and there ace thousands behind the lines. All whites In Chinatown were allowed to pass out. but people outside the lines are not let inside. Many teamsters were caught In the quarantine, but got out without difficulty, upon being warned that they could not re-enter. The Sacramento and Clay-street cable cars are permitted to pass through the quarantined district only on condition that the passengers go inside the cars be fore entering the lines, and no person Is allowed to get on or oft the cars in China town. Another condition Is observed by the rallwav men In fumigating the cars at both ends of the line. GERMAN MEAT BILL. May Be.Modlflcrt Before It Goea Into Effect. CHICAGO. May S0.-Chlcago packers saw a chance for relief from the restric tions of the German meat bill In informa tion cabled last night to Morris Epstein, president of the German-American Pro vision Company, that the bill will not go Into effect until October 5. By that time it Is supposed the German naval bill will have been passed and the German oppo nents of the meat bill will be better able to work against it, and perhaps modify some of Its workings. Packers who learned that the bill would not take effect until Fall were inclined to think that the date had been put off much further than naturally would have been the case. Just how this was accomplished the cabled Information to Mr. Epstein did not say. Mr. Epstein said that it would have been possible to put the bill Into ef fect at once under the German law. "The news that the bill will not go Into effect until October makes me believe be fore that time some way will have been found to soften its restrictions, provided the United States does not lose Its tem per and begin retaliatory measures on German "products," said Mr. Epstein. "While I was discussing the meet bill with a German statesman not long ago, when I was abroad, he eald to me that Germany never would enforce such an unfriendly measure against America, pro Aided the United States did not do any thing unfriendly to Germany. From that I inferred that the opponents of the meat bljl looked for 6ome -modification of It before it is put into effect. "It is well-known that the German Em perpr fc opposed to the meat bill as It was passed. His great solicitude Is for the naval bill, however. Now that the meat bill will not lake -effect until Octo ber 5, the Emperor will have ample time to secure the passage of the naval bill, and that done. I think the packers have reason to expect something favorable will happen." GERMAX PRESS COM31EXT. Vop Particularly Alanaed hy IJailey'a Bill. BERLIX. May 30. There is considerable press comment upon the bill introduced Monday In the United States House of Representatives by Mr. Bailey, desiring the President to Impose and collect an additional duty of 10 per cent on all Imports from Germany in the event of the enactment of the meat inspection bin in its present form. The Government, how ever, does not yet attach special Import ance to Mr. Bailey's proposal, believing that nothing will come of it. A foreign official defined the attitude of the German Government as above set forth, but de- cllned to discuss the bearing of Mr Bailey's action upon the meat inspection bllL The National Zeltung- says: "We do not believe the United Suites will be fool ish enough to begin tariff hostilities be cause of the prohibition of sausages and canned meats. In such hostilities both sides can Inflict damage." The Lokal Anzelger says: "The pass age of Mr. Bailey's bill would mean the beginning of a tariff war." The Deutsche Tages Zeltung. the Agra rian organ, says: "The whole thing shows that the United States Is deter mined to make a pretext for a tariff war. The German Government will do well to prepare for the possibility, indeed, the probability, of a tariff war with the United States. If the Government wishes to avoid the latter, let it show the Ameri cans its teeth, disregarding all conse quences." The Vosslsche Zeltung says: "The Agra rian majority In the Reichstag will be lit tle troubled by the news regarding Mr. Bailey's proposal since that majority is not concerned over damage to German commerce." The correspondent of the Associated Press learns from a reliable source that the British Ambassador, Sir Frank Las celle, has made diplomatic representa. tlons to the German Government against the meat inspection bill, as likely to work injury to Australian exports. Retaliatory Meaaare. NEW YORK. May 30. A special to the Herald from "Washington ears:, Germany may be met with spirited retaliation by the United States If the meat bill now pending in the Bundesrath la enacted into law. The subject was not discussed at the meeting of the Cabinet yesterday, and a member of the Cabinet said that no re taliatory measures would be adopted until after the German bill had "become a law and its provisions had been -studied. In the meantime, however, there may be Congressional action. President Spring er, of the National Livestock Association, said that it was the Intention of that as sociation to assert all Its Influence to bring about the speedy enactment into ?aw of the bill introduced yesterday by Representative Bailey, of Texas, direct ing the President to Impose and collect an additional duty of 10 per cent on all imports from Germany in the event of the enactment of the German bill. Mr. Springer said he was confident of the ability of the National Livestock As sociation to force the passage of this bill, as it represented all the cattle-breeders' associations of the country, as weU as all the stockyards and packing-house Inter ests. The total capital represented bj the association, he said, was $000,000,000. BOER WAR REPORTS. Declare the Federals Are Making: a Good Stand. PRETORIA, Tuesday, May 29.

DELAGOA RAILROAD AWARD Statc Department "Will Probably Ac cept the Verdict. WASHINGTON, May 30-It Is probable that the State Department will accept the result of the arbitration In the Delagoa railroad case. The McMurdo heirs, the only American claimants against the Portuguese Government, are very much dissatisfied with the outcome of the arbi tration, which reduced their allowance from about $1,500,000 to an insignificant fraction ot that sum. Naturally, they are anxious that the United States Govern ment should refuse to accept the arbitra tion. But the British Government, repre senting a very much larger claim in the same arbitration, so far has shown no sign of a disposition to reject the verdict, and as it would be an unparalleled action for one party to an arbitration to reject the conclusions, the United States Gov ernment must accept the findings of the SwIps arbitrators in this case, though satisfied of the Inadequacy of their al lowance. So far. the money allotted by the arbitration has not been received, but from unofficial sources the State Depart ment has been Informed that the Portu gueps Government has the funds ready, and will forward th American allowance to any official authorized by the State Department to receive It.

The steamer Gaelic, from Hong Kong and Yokohama, via Honolulu, brings the following advices to the Associated Press from Honolulu, dated May 22: Albert Francis Judd. Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Hawaii, died on the 20th. Chief Justice Judd's political cares began with his appointment as Attorney General of the kingdom under Lunalino, in 1S7S. Democrats have taken the first steps for the organization of a party in the terri tory of Hawaii. The gathering was one that filled the hall to Its capacity and numbered fully 500. Those who called the meeting and felt themselves sponsors In some degree for Its success express them selves as being thoroughly pleased and gratified with the outlook. A report comes from Mona that in a riot among the Japanese employes of a planta tion, two men were killed, and a number injured. Officers have been sent to the scene of the trouble. Ernest Hogan, the colored minstrel, won his suit against the Canadian-Australia Royal Mall Steamship Company, and secured $2250 damages as a result of "being refused accommodations on the steamer Miowera. Hogan and bis com pany instituted suits in the Honolulu courts and asked for damages in the sum of $20,003 each. The Hogan case is the first decided. A South African Dnst Storm. Julian Ralph in London Truth. As you sit looking over the veldt early of an afternoon, you suddenly see a little corkscrew-shaped column ot dust whirling in front of you. It Is so small that you could put a barrel over it when it begins. I wonder no one has ever thought of doing It. But it whirls and grows, and grows and whirls, until, the first thing you know, it is as big as a tent and something near the same shape, except that the point at the top may reach straight up In a long brown thread CO or SO feet high. Well, it whirls and grows, and grows and whirls-, until it is half an acre In size, and has begun to pick up big planks, and men's coats and hats, and heavy waterproof wagon covers and to fling them around In Its outermost circle. At last, when It has become a full-grown devil, it turns right about and makes for the camp. Every one. except the sentries, rushes for shelter, and all find that shelter from such a demon Is impossible to get. It squeezes under tens. Into windows, through crannies and cracks, between the doors and their frames. It sifts through outer clothes and underclothes, and paints every man's skin khaki color.

The best teaching is the teaching that will save the most lives. And this lesson to those with the slight est predisposition to consumption will savo more lives than any that can bo taught. In the Spring and Summer catarrh may be more speedily cured; with Nature help ing the work, the result is more certain; after the cure the constitution resumes its normal condition more quickly; those so feeble that they should not even expose themselves to the weather during the Win ter may visit the offices, and are helped In the progress of treatment rather than in jured by the exposure to outdoor air. This is what the opportunity of the Spring and Bummer months means. Indeed, with many of the more serious cases where long-neglected catarrhal dis eases Invading the bronchial tubes which convey the air to the lungs, has taken Its advance into the tissues of the lungs themselves, has reached the end of the road lined with the mucous membrane upon which it lives and feeds, and finding no new tissues settled down to feed upon the luns cells with many of these serious cases, treatment dumng the Spring and Summer months is the only hope. Little If any help can be promised them during the Winter. It is, then, during the Spring and Sum mer that catarrh In Its early stases. In volving, maybe, the nasal passages and throat and vocal cords and windpipe, may be most speedily cured, and the danger of Its extension Into the deeper part of the bronchial tubes or lungs averted. Mrs. A. H. Maegly, 455 Fifth Street, Portland: Our little daughter Monta was seriously affected with catarrh of the head and throat. Her whole system was affected. She could not breathe through her nose. She was pale and weak, and al ways tired and exhausted, Drs. Ccpeland ani- Montgomery cured her. Captain W. H.

American Museum Journal. There can be little question that in all of their forms, large and small, they were ravenous and sharklike in their habits. The large Dlnlchthys was cer tainly a dangerous neighbor, easily the master of all other kinds of animals liv ing in his time. That they quarreled among themselves is known positively, for a specimen has been taken from the rock whose stout backplate had been completely crushed in two, bearing in its solid bone deep imprints and gashes which fit the jaw-tips of this species. In an other case a portion of a jaw was found separate In the rock, with marks of hav ing been broken off during the animal's lifetime. The particular form, Dlnlch thys,. appears to have been nine feet or more In length, but It was by no means the largest member of the family. Tit anlchthys was probably half as large again, but Its jaws were less formidable. Other types of these ancient fishes had jaws which were long and delicate, set with a bristling row of teeth. It may be noted that In all of these forms the mouth parts appear to have been capable of a certain degree of independent move ment, so that the tips of the Jaws could be opened or drawn together, like flnger- Tmnuft'irm,- . .,. -arffh. nitrht V ' 1 4 fulness, aversion to society, which deprive you of your manhood.
