THE YELLOW FEVER.
More Cases in Mobile Offici
ally Announced.
JACKSON, MISS,, QUARANTINED.
Stringent Efforts Made to Check
the Prague.
Washixqton, Sept. 15. Surgeon
General Wyruan received the follow
ing from Dr. Gultcra9, the govern
ment expert at Mobile, concerning the
yellow fever situation there:
"The patient at the city hospital is
still living. The case of Basrago. re
ported ,by me as suspicious, I have
been unable to see again, but subse
quent history makes the case more
suspicious. He has not been in the
city, nor In any apparent way con
nected with peoplo from Ocean
Springs. I luvejust been shown an
other case which I have pronounced
to be, without doubt, yellow fever. I
have -heard the history of another
case which Is very suspicious. The
cases are not grouped in any one
quarter of the city."
A dispatch was received from Fun
talnebleau, Miss., tho seat of the de
tention camp, from Surgeon White,
stating that Dr. Gaines reports one
new case at Barclay.
Fever Spreading.
Mobile, Sept. 15. Three cases of
yellow fever were officially announced
by the board or -health. This caused
much more alarm than did ttfe'dlscov
ery of the first case, which was re
garded as sporadic. People who can
are leaving for points of safety.
Dr. Gultreas left for Edwards Miss ,
induced there to Investigate a dls-
I patch received from there. When
asked upon what he based his tele
gram to the surgeon-general, that
there would be a spread"bf the dls
case here, he said tlut thi city
had had a long immunity from disease
and that there was much material for
it to feed upon.
Quarantine.
Jackson, Miss., Sept. 15. A day
of excitement und anxiety has been
added to the people of Jackson, Miss.,
from which an exodus begun to sur
rounding towns. The city is now
surrounded on all sides by an armed
guard and 'quarantine rules are en
forced with great strictness. The
principal cause of alarm to the 'peo
ple of Jackson camo from Edwards,
only twenty-five miles distant, where
there are now thirty-five cases of
denugc.

of the board of health show the re

board 25 cases for investigation which
the attending physician considers
serious. Of these, 13 cases have been
found suffering with a harmless feyer,
and five cases are regarded as suspic
ious, but necessary to be further in
vestigated before a definite report
can be made upon them.
There are no reports as to the four
cases and four caces have been pro

fever cases Is located In the neighbor
hood or the or tho French market.
The locality Is fax1 from a cleanly one,
populated by poor people, many of
whom are forelgofs, and It might bo
considered dangerous ground. For
that reason especial pains will bo
taken by tho board; of health to quar
antine tho infected houses. Olllcers
from tho police force wero detailed to j
take charge of th3 neighborhood. A1
restaurant, a bakery and a shop next
to the premises where the fever was '
found wore closed; and a diilnfeotant
was sent to tho 6ceno to bo used, .
Of course, tho report of new cases
dally Is creating alarm In some quar-'
tors, but thus far tho disease has!
shown but little malignancy, as wit
ncsstho record of one death outof thlr-'
teen cases, and none of the practicing '
physicians arc yet on record as expres
sing a fear of the epidemic. I
One of the features developed dur- '
Ing the day Is that people of maturcr '
age have been attacked. Therefore tho '
disease has been confined principally '
to children of tender age and boys and
girls not yet grown to manhood. Two
of the late cases show that older peo
ple uave been attacked.
Under instructions from the super
intendent of tho railway mall service,
the postotllce authorities fumigated

letters and packages bo not sent back

Panama Canal.
New York, Sept. 15. A Washing
ton special says:
Interest in tho Colon dispatch re
garding the Panama canal has been
revived by tho additional Intelligence
which has reached Washington. A
German diplomat recelyed word from
a compatriot, wlio is stationed in
Paris, that a British company Is ne
gotiating for the sale of thecanal.and
It is believed that tho company will
prove to be tho Bank of England.
Tho sale of the canal, according to
this diplomat, Is the result of numer
ous conferences held in Europe during
last winter, when the United States
government was urging tho comple
tion of tho Nicaragua canal.
Maurice Trubert, the charge
d'affaires at the French embassy ob
serves great reticence In discussing
the Panama affair. Ho emphatically
asserts that he has received no olllclal
notification of such a transfer. lie
produced a Paris papcr,the Lo Courier
of September 5, In which an nuthorl
tative denial Is given to all such dis
quieting rumors as that French capi
talists Intended to sell their franchise
to Engluud or any other -nation.
Nevertheless It Is believed by other
diplomats that there is yet much to
be learned regarding tho Panama
canal, and It is known that the state
department is quietly Investigating
at Colon and in the capitals of Eu
rope. Nearly A Wreck.

STRIKE IS SPREADING
Eleven Thousand Men Idle in
the Hazelton Region,
DAY PASSED WITH0UTTR0UB.LE
Miners and Operators Still Dis
agree. IIazelton, Pa., Sept. 15. Despite
a yarlcty of alarming rumors and a
morning movement by a body of min
ers, which looked formidable, the day
passed without serious disturbance In
the strike region. Matters wear such
an uncertain aspect, however, that
General Gobln declares that the re-
n'nvnl nf t.lin t.rnnna rir nnc nnrtlnn nf
them has not been contemplated. Tho
strike itself Is spreading with great
rapidity.
Exact estimates of the number of
men who have quit work arc hard to
obtain, but conservative figures place
it 'Jose to 11,000 with indication that
in a short time every colliery of im
portance In tho ronton will.be Idle.
Although somo disposition has been
shown by small bodies ;of t.trlkcrs In
tho outlying districts to make demon
strations, they have been of a rather
feeble character, and tho great ma
jority of tho men are docile.
At Latimer a largely attended and
declslyo meeting or tho strikers was
held to rccievo the answer of tho com
pany to their demands. With a largo
body of strikers gathering In tho open
space " before the company's . store,
Superintendent Blako came to tho
door and gave them tho answer. lb
was short and to the point, and It wds
met with action equally as decisive.
Tho 'demands had been formulated as
follows:
"Wo desire and'vWsh tho privilege
or Duying our provisions whero wo
think proper, instead of being forced
to buy at tho company's store we
want a 20 per cent advance on all
classes of labor j wo demand tho dis
missal of all parties who took part on
last Friday, September 10, in tho
shooting affray; wo demand that tall
classes bo paid tho same for rock
work as for coal on idle days; wo de
mand that no man shall bo dis
charged for acting on this commit
tee." The comnanv's answer to thin wnn.
first, that the men aro not and never
havo been obliged to buy exclusively
at tho company store second, that
the advance would not be granted, be
cause the company was paying tho
average rate of the region; third,
tho company absolutely refuses,
without azslgnlng any reason, to dis
charge anybody who participated In
the shooting; fourth, men suspendod
on idlo days havo tho nrlvllece of
taking some other person's placo,thus
making good the difference In tho
rate between rock and coal work; und,
fifth, that no man shall be discharged
for acting on the grievance commit
tee. Superintendent Blake madeu short

would gain nothing by remaining Idle.
"What do you say?" ho concluded.
"Will you come back ?' CZJ
There was a moment's buzz, and u
chorus of "No" went up. Tho super
intendent attempted no furthor per
suasion, und the men dispersed.

FISHING SMACKS FIRED UPON.
An Exciting ' Incident Off the Florida
Coast.
Tampa, Fla., Sept. 15. The Span
ish consul here, Pedro Sells, Is wrathy
because the state patrol stcamerGerm
fired on several Spanish smacks. Tho
Germ Is a large trim launch belonging
to the state health board, and Is
armed with small cannon. Tho Span
ish smacks hover around tho coast and
sell Spanish liquors, etc., to the
sponging and fishing vessels that
come here, thus infringing on tho
quarantine laws. Tills practlco Is to
be broken up, and tho state authori
ties have adopted stringent measures.
Last week two were captured, and the
American and Spanish vessels caught
together were Rent to quarantine.
While thtGerm was was on her last
trip she sighted two Spanish smacks
and they put to sea. FlndlGg she
could not overhaul them, the launch
scut a solid shot after them. The
second shot brought them to.and they
were sent to .quarantine.
Tho Spanish consul wired a com
plaint to Washington after tho firing
on the Spanish vessels, und tho mat
ter was bruught to tho attention of
Dr. Torter. state health officer. Dr.
Porter and Mr. Soils had a conference
in which tho health officer, who Is u
retired naval physician, plainly told
the consul that the smacks would bo
li red on and hit, too, if they did not
stop when signalled.
Tlicro was much feeling over the
tiring, as the Unbans havo made much
ado over tho matter of an American
vessel firing on tho Spaulsh flag, and
jeered the Spaniards hero about It.

Burglar Caught in Portland.
Will Be Given Preliminary Exami
nation Friday Morning.
Chief of Police A.C. Dilley returned
Tuesday evening from Portland with
a man who gives the namn nf hnir
Bailey. IIo id charged with buivlarv
from the residence of P. G. Norgrea
lnYowPark. He was nriiino .
fore Recorder Ed N. Edcsat lOo'clock
tins morning and entered a plea of
"not guilty" Ills examlnnllnn wnn
set for 12:30 p. m. Friday and in de-
iairn, or tuo $200 required ball, he was
placed In the county jail.
Mr. Norgrcn's home was ono nf th
four residences In irew Park ttwt
was burglarized ono night last week.
Among the articles missed by .Mr.
Norgren was a good serviceable over
coat, lie promptly reported his loss
to Chief of Polico Dilley, through
whose efficient services and wide ex
perience as a police officer, the cap
ture of the man, who Is supposed to
have commltced the crime, was ef
fected In Portland. A description of
the overcoat was furnished the Port
land polico olllclals who discovered the
man on tho streets and identified the
overcoat he was wearing as the ono
reported stolen from Mr. No gren and
the arrest of tho man followed. Tho
overcoat was forwarded to Chief or
Polico Dilley for Identification by Mr.
Norgren. Thonrtlclo was positively
Identified by the owner and Chief of
Polico Dilley, went o Portland Tues
day afternoon, returning In the eve
ning with his mnn.
The following account of Bailey's
arrest Is taken from today's Oregon
Ian; "An overcoat which was worn by
Frank Bailey, a young man who was
recently arrested or, suspicion by do
tcctivcji Kcrriban and Maher, has
been Indllltlcd as one stolen from Sa
lem a few days ago, A description of
tho coat was sent to this city at tho
tlmo It wus stolen. When Journeyliig
tho North End recently, Ihe two de
tectives noticed a young fellow wear
ing an overcoat that was too largo for
him, and a closer inspection convinced
them tlmt it was tho ono described In
the Salem dispatch. The wearer,
who gavo his namo as Frank Bai
ley, was unablo to explain how he
was making his living, and was
locked up on a chargo of vagrancy','
whilo the coat was sent to Salem for
indentlllcatlop. Yesterday Chief
Barry received word that tho garment
hud been Indentiflcd. It is thought
tlmt a quanlty of Jewelry, which was
founedin Bailey's pocket when he
was arrested, has been stolen from
somo of tho houses recently burglar
ized in Salem."
Bailey glyes his ago as 23 years and
claims to como from San Francisco.
IIo Is a hard-looking character and ia
unquestionably capable of perpeteat
lng tho crlmo with which he Is
charged. Tho remarkabio composure
which Bailey exhibited when he was
arraigned this morning Indicated the
neryo of an experienced all-around
"tough."
Besides tho overcoat, a quantity of
cheap Jewelry and a number of mis.
cellaneous articles wero found In his
possession. Tho man only bad seventy
cents In money when arrested.
When tho tenants of tho houses
that wero burglarized at tho same'
tlmo Mr, Norgrcn's bouse was ran-
sacked, call at the city hall, it la
likely some of tho articles taken from
Bailey may bo identified.
