ination OF Randall Z. Gibson by the Demo-
cratic Convention as Congressman from the
First Representative District has not been
accepted by the Democrats OF that district

SUSPECTED OF YELLOW FEVER.
How Lady from She south lis Treated

[Chieago Times.

[Chieago Times.l
ST. Louis, Aug. 1.-THE health officials were
given decided scare to-day on the yellow
fever subject. Some time ago a sister Of O.
lily, resides at No. 1913 State street, while be-
ing treated by Drs. Gregory, Landlord and
others for a tumor, was advised to go south
as q. step to her restoration to health. She
acted on the advice, and visited q friend In
Texas. Finding, however, that the change
was making no perceptlble improvement In
her condition, the lady started on her return
to this city, arriving here on yesterday. she
OF course repaired to her brothers residences
which had always been her home, but because
she reached there in carriage and was III q
very weak condition, suffering from her all
ment, the landlord Of the premises q burIy
old man named schuster, had his head filed
protest against the lady's admission to the
house. OF course Mr.. Joyce, who had paid
his rent and conceived that he had some
thing to say , In the matter, received
report through the neighborhood that q,
case Of genuine yellow fever existed In the
Joyce house, and the result was a regular
howl all around. The matter came to the
ears OF the police officer on the beat. who
laid before Heaith ff5sieEsas: Era1acs
The latter official at once referred it to DR.. a.
9. Robinson, dispensary physician, who went
down TO examine into it. The doctor soon as

the trouble to assure Schuster and the people
residing in the vicinity that there were no
grounds for alarm. Schuster became very in
dignant, and declared that :" as landlord Of the
premises he had a right to say who should
and who should not board with his tenants Y
and that g in the event that Mr.. Joyce per-
sisted in keeping his sister under his roof he
| would be turned out Of the house by legal
process" The doctor tried to reason such a
ridiculous proposition out OF Sehuster's head,
but soon came to the conclusion that his ar
gument would meet with better reception
from telegraph pole. After the doctors re-
turn to the city hall Schuster appeared, and
wanted Commissioner Francis to order the
ladys removal from his house. The request
| was, of course, refused.
