One cae at Suramerel, "MIm.. and
several scattered cases In Mississippi,
Louisiana and Alabama.
The fever situation showed no ma
terial change during the day and the
few new foci show that it Is not
spreading with the rapidity of former
years. Of the deaths - four were in
the Emergency Hospital, four In the
onglnal districts, and three in the
Charities Hospital.
NrW ORLEANS, Aus. 2. Today's re
port ofvthe fever situation showed an In
crease in the. number of deaths, but the
health authorities professed no alarm over
the situation, and said that more fatal
ities were to be looked for. from the fact
that, in the past three or four days there
has been a sufficient Increase in the num
ber of cases to warrant the expectation
of heavier mortality. High temperatures
succeeded by heavy precipitation and
cooler weather produced climatic condi
tions also favorable to fatalities.
Practically all of the deaths were of
Italians, and nearly all of them were
either in the Emergency Hospital or In
the district adjacent thereto. Some of the
victims were unfortunates whose cases
were only reported in tho- last two- days,
indicating they were in a practically mori
bund condition when tholr illness was re
ported. ,
It Is confidently believed that, once the
infection begins to decline in the section
below Canal street, where the sanitation
conditions .are. more favorable for the
spread of the disease, - there will be little
difficulty in stamping out the malady
which may be under treatment elsewhere.
There Is no attempt to conceal the fact
that the extent of the fever shows a se
rious state of affairs, but there is be
lieved not to be any justification for the
terror which seems to have, spread over
the country outside of New Orleans.
Victims Mostly Italians.
That the fever continues as an Italian
infection Is shown by the fact that In the
list of 42. the Italian victims number 35.
Tire six dead are relatives.
In spite of all that has been done to
reassure them, many jf the Italians con
tinue to make efforts to conceal their
cases. They are still panlc-strlckeri and
turn in fear from the physicians and
health officers. It was due largely to the
energy with which the Iarine Hospital
forces set about the work of discovering
hidden cases that Tuesday's record was
made so large.:' With local inspectors they
Ignored custom and insisted upon reaching
spots where they believe cases to exist.
Since this campaign has been In progress,
cases have turned up in. the most unex
pected places.
Tricks to Hide Infected.
In one instance, when the officers had
made a thorough inspection of premises
and failed to find what they were looking
for, they went through a skylight and
found a sick man lying on the roof. In
another case they found a patient con
cealed under a cistern. The other day a
wagonload of household goods, accompa
nied by Italians, started to cross on the
ferry. Suspicious officers insisted on an
investigation, and, whqn the wagon was
unloaded, a very sick man was found.
One of the reasons the .fever has spread
among the Italians is because they sleep
without protection against mosquitoes.
Postmaster Woodward today received a
letter from the railway mall service at
Atlanta, saying that Greenville, Miss., lias
notified the health officers -that hereafter
it will receive no mall from Jsew Orleans
that has, not been disinfected, and that ,
under no circumstances will It receive ,
newspapers, whether disinfected 'or not.
Mississippi Will Study Mosquito, j
It'was said at the-State Board of Health
office today that Secretary Hunter, of
the Mississippi board would probably be
here shortly to survey the situation gen
erally, and especially to study the. scien
tific fight now In progress based on the
mosquito theory. However, the Louisiana
officials expect little modification of the
quarantine regulations until the fever Is
entirely stamped out, owing to the wide
spread disinclination of the Mississippi
public to Accept the mosquito theory.
Surgeon White, of the Marine Hosnltal
SerVle, has returned from the Mississip
pi cbast, from which point he talked over
the - long-distance telephone with Gover
nor Vardaman. Dr. White said the Gov
ernor had given his courteous consent to
the. "-establishment of a detention camp
qnthe Mississippi side of the state line on
the Louisville & .Nashville road, and
would arrange or the admission to Mis
sissippi .points off persons from New Or
leans w:hd enter the camp and,' are Un
changed, wfth certificate's.. There Ik no"
longer any obstacle to the movement of
passengers through' Mississippi.
The question of whether Federal con
trol, of the situation ought to bo .invited
is. still discussed, but unless graver con
ditions arise it is now regarded as un
likely that there, will be any movement
In that-.direction. .' - . .
Mayor Herrman today signed the mos
quito prdlnance. and it was later reviewed
in the official Journal. It requires that
cisterns shall, he screened within 4S hours
by property-owners or their agents.
Xo War Between States.
No apprehension exists of any serious
results from the. trouble that has arisen'
on the Mississippi-Louisiana border over
the enforcement of the Mississippi quar
antine. With Governor Vardaman anx
ious to avoid, any conflict with the Louisi
ana authorities, it Js thought the Missis
sippi soldiers who have been coming
freely across the Louisiana line will here
after be required to -keep on their side
of the border, and thus. a 11 further pos
sibility of clashes "will be removed. On
receipt of a telegram of complaint from
Governor Blanchard, Governor Vardaman
decided to go personally to the scene and
Investigate the conditions for himself.
Governor B'lanchard, has ordered Cap
tain Bostick jot "the naval brigade to im
press the fleet of patrol boats of the Oys
ter Commission into service and arm
them and patrol the waters now in pos
sesion of the Mississippi boats. One pf
these tyster boats has already beben dis
patched to the Rigolets. the neck - of
water connecting Lake Pohfchartraln
vith Lake Borgne, ..and late tonlght . br
1 : . '
tomorrow morning a launch filled with
rapid-fire guns from the .naval brigade
armory and manned by officers and crew
from the brigade will leave for the scene.
Both-Captain Bostick and General Peril
Hat 'submitted reports as to tho result
of their investigations. Both dispatched
officers to the scene today and they
learned enough to confirm the first, re
ports of the invasion and the action of
the ""'Mississippi patrol-boats in" closing
Louisiana waters to Louisiana fishermen.
There are 18 boats now at Ship Island,
which were captured by the patrol and
towed by the revenue cutter Winona to
Ship Island quarantine station. It is
claimed that every one of these vessels
was taken in Louisiana water?.
Xeu Complication Arises.
Another complication has developed In
the same" connection. The British ship
Brayhead, of the Head Line, after com
pleting her cargo in New Orleans, stopped
at the Mississippi side of Lake Borgne
Canal to get a fieckload of lumber, but
the Mississippi boats absolutely refused
to allow a tug to go to the mouth of Pearl
River to get the barge and rafts. The
Brayhead was obliged to leave without
the cargo and the agents and the owners
will lay the matter before the British
government.
Quarantine Paralyzes Traffic
Passonger and freight traffic in and out
of New Orleans Is practically paralyzed.
All trains carry armed guards as far
north as 'Cairo. 111. Mobile has tightened"
Its cordon, and has ordered the detention
for five days of boats coming from Cen
tral and South American ports. Tcxar
kana has ordered a discontinuance of all
trains between Shreveport. where a case
developed last night, and Texarkana, Ar
kansas is using Its militia as quarantine
officers, and has stationed them at vari
ous points to prevent the landing of peo
ple from Infected districts. Shotgun
quarantines prevail in many parts of the
Far South, this manner of stopping refu
gees having been In operation near Vlcks
burg for about a week.
ONE CASE AT SHREVEPORT
Quarantine Leaves Passengers on
Train Stranded in Country.
SHREVEPORT. La.. Aug. 2. An official
report Issued by the Board of Health on
the case of yellow fever at the dotention
camp on the outskirts of the city, states
that he is considered convalescent. ' There
arc no new cases of yellow fever and no
suspicious cases and the local health
authorities are confident that the Infec
tion will be confined to this one sporadic
case. i
Only two railroads, the Vicksburg .&
Shreveport and the Cotton Bolt, are tak
ing passengers out of the city and these
are going to the mountains of Tennessee
arid the Carollnas or to points in Mis
souri. All trains from the south? are
stopped at the parish line. 20 miles dls-.
tant and are not permitted to come Into
the parish.
A northbound train on the Kansas City
Southern was halted at the parish line
today and all passengers were left strand-j
ed on the two sloqpers and the coaches.
The engine and mall cars were fumigated
and allowed to come Into the city.
The City Board of Health resigned to
day, because of criticisms in permitting
the Kansas City Southern to bring the
man -suffering with fever Into the parish.
LOUISIANA XAVY GOES OUT
May Fight Battle With Mississippi
Fleet on Lake Borgne.
NEW ORLEANS. Aug. Z Governor
Blanchard today issued orders to Captain
Bostick. in command of the Louisiana
naval reserves, to proceed with a suffi
cient force to Lake Borgne Canal and
adopt measures for the protection of.
Louisiana fishermen, citizens and boat
men. The Oyster Commission has been
instructed to turn over the oyster flet
to Captain Bostick for service in this
matter, and the naval commander has
instructions to adopt whatever boats he
deems desirable for his mission.
Governor' Blanchard's action is based on
tho telegrams received- today, showing
that tho Mississippi quarantine officers
are reported to be employing high-handed
measures and interfering with Louisiana
citizens. Captain Bostick today made
a report to the Governor by wire that
armed MlsslspJpplans had been crossing
the Louisiana- line, that Mississippi
launches had been interfering with traffic
in Lake Pontchartrain and capturing
schooners: that they have stopped fish
ing In Lake Borgne and that the canal
has been Interrupted.
SENDS PROTEST TO TREASURY
Blanchard Accuses Revenue Cutter
of Aiding Mississippi Guards.
NEW ORLEANS. Aug. 2. Governor
Blanchard today wired to Secretary of
the Treasury Shaw a vigorous protest
against the interference of the revenue
cutter Winona with fishing boats lawfully
riding In Louisiana or Federal waters.
He advised the Secretary that tho Wi
nona has been guilty of Interference with
the rights of boats on navigable waters
of the United Stater, and Is apparently
assisting the . Mississippi quarantine
boats in interfering with Louisiana citi
zens. The Governor requested prompt
action to stop these practices and asked
for the release of the boaks- held by the
Winona.
The Governor alDo wired the ootlectQr
of customs at Biloxi. under whone juris
diction the Winona is. demanding the
release of Louisiana boats said to be held
by the revenue cutter. '
BLANCHARD ISSUES HIS DEFI
Mississippi Cannot Challenge Lou
- - Isiana's Right to Enter Gu,lf.
BATON ROUGE. La., Aug. 2. Governor
Blanchard. gave out a lengthy statement
tonight covering all the developments In
the controversy with Mississippi, in tho
course of which he said:
"While it is. my firm Intention to em
ploy the means at my command to afford
adequate protection to the citizens of Lou
isiana and give them absolute -immunity
from further1 acts t)f depredation on the
part of Mississippi quarantine guards, I
trust that further friction may be avoid
ed. . .. -
"Mississippi's Governor may prevent
Louisiana boats from landing on Missis
sippi shores, but he cannot challenge the
right of Louisiana boats to navigate lakes,
channels and sounds leading to the Gulf."
j Vardaman Calls It Exaggeration.
JACKSON. Miss.. Aug. 2. When asked
for a statement regarding the reported
Invasion of Louisiana soil by Mississippi
troops doing quarantine duty on the Gulf
coast. Governor Vardaman declared that
the whole affair was much exaggerated,
and he attached very little Importance to
the rumor.

COOS BAY WILL HAVE ROAD
(Continued from FlrM Pag.)
the headquarters of the Harrlman system
ln the Northwest In recent years Is of
greater importance or has come more un
expectedly, and may be taken as denot
ing the adoption of new policies govern
ing the conduct of the Southorn Pacific
in Oregon. There have boon frequent at
tempts made In the past to connect the
Coos County country with Portland by
rail lines that would turn the Immense
trade certain to be develop! to Portland
and establish communication with the In
terior of the state. Just what Is the rea
son for the decision Is not stated, but It
Is probably to place at command of the
Harrlman lines the fuel supply for tho
future that Is assured by the vast meas
ures of lignite In that county, while at
the same time establishing a branch that
'must prove a rich feeder to the system.
- Coos Bay's Splendid Harbor.
Coos Bay Is one of the splendid harbors
for vessels of draft not exceeding about 15
feet, while vessels of lighter draft enter
Coqullle River, which Is navigable as far
as Coqullle City, the county seat. Up
to this" time the only railroad In the
county is the Coos Bay, Roseburg &
Eastern, operated 2S miles from Marsh
field, through Coqullle to Myrtle Point.
and with a branch to Beaver Hill. The
road was constructed principally to open
up forest lands to timber industries and
the coal fields of the Coqullle Valley, and
was projected to be built to a connection
with the Southern Raqiflc at Roseburg.
as the name indicates. It Is owned and
controlled by San Francisco Interests, and
operates In connection with boat lines
plying between Coos Bay and San Fran
cisco, and also lines operating to Port
land, and with boats operating on the
Coqullle River to' Bandon, Parkersburg
and Arago.
Will Giro Good Facilities.
Connecting at Marshfleld with the pres
ent railroad, the new branch of the South
ern Pacific will give the entire county
v6ry good rail transportation facilities
with the outside world. The greater part
of the mileage will be In Coos CountyJ
ana tnis win be the first railroad to reach
the western side of the Coast Range In
Oregon south of the Columbia River. It
Is the route of the easiest grades, the
Ump'qua River sweeping through tho
range In much the same manner as the
Columbia finds a course through the Cas
cades. There will be some very expensive
construction, but the road will have low
gradients for the entire distance.'
Gardiner, which will be the point where
the coast will first be approached, was a
dozen years ago a boom town. It is not
much of a city at the present time, but
is In a region of great possibilities. This
was the territory that was to have been
tapped by the McKInney road, projected
several years ago, which was one of the
pyrotechnic bubbles of Western Oregon
transportation dreams that failed of real
ization. Road Is a Certainty.
More recently it has been asserted and
reiterated that. the Western Pacific Gould
line was projected to reach the harbor
of Coos Bay, and there have been various
surveys for coast routes from California
to the Columbia River that were regard
ed as promising of early accomplishment
in grades, ties and steel rails. Whether
any of these have shown Indications of
tOcia material fans, and are in anyre-
spect responsible for the action that Is
now positively and officially announced
for the immediate future is not known.
However, the Important fact to the people
of Coos County, and to the commercial
Interests of Portland, Is that the South
ern Pacific officials announce that the
road will be built and that without, any
longer delay than absolutely necessary to
finish the preliminaries.

An Innovation in Milling

"'to preserve them in a more attractive ' 'Aj.
and more easily assimilated form. lip?;"!!
'&;fj- Inventions, one after another, have 7'0rS

Now comes an innovation in the 1 iSij

Ionised Air Is air which has been torn

proJuces an exhilarating effect akin to
that induced by the administration of
ozone Tastes sweet and rare, like rich
mountain air of limpid purity.
Every particle of White River Flour has
been treated by Ionized air. mnkin? it
