LOUISVILLE.

CINCINNATI, O., Sept. 2s.-Refugees from
Louisville arriving here by every trsin, and on
all roads, give alarming accounts of the sudden
outbreak of the yellow fever in that city. $50
cases are reported in the neighborhood of the
Louisville and Nashville depot, and some
streets in that vicinity are reported as almost
entirely deserted by the fleeing populace.
Every vehicle obtainable is reported as
being used to remove the terror-stricken
people, and hackmen are accused Of charging
e1of bitanI rates when called into service by
the frightened inhabitants. The locality Of
the outbreak is said to have been Hrgely pop
ulated by refugees from the fever districts
further south, but the disease is not confined
to them alone. One lady said she

BEN LoMoNp, Miss, Sept. 26.-4bout 800
deaths to date at Greenville, among them
Mayor A. B. Tregg, Arthur G. Marshall Rev.
Duncan. Green H. Dewitt, telegraph operator,
was taken down, and is now in a dying con-
dition. No operator there now. Fifteen
deaths ont of twenty cases of refugees.
STOUT DENIAL:
LOUISVILLE, KY, Sept. 26.-Reports Which
may be published tomorrow, to the effect that
the original yellow fever exists in Louisville,
are untrue. There is no desire to conceal the
truth, and the outside world can rest assured
that the moment the original yellow fever does
exist these dispatches will communicate the
fact. Louisville has opened her gates to the
suffering South, and bid her refugees welcome.
The fever is not feared. There is none, and by
reason of the geographical position and climatic
influences, it is confidently believed the
disease cannot prevail in this city. There has
been disposition upon the part of other cities
to have the fever here whether or no. and re-
ports that people are leaving Louisville in
large numbers are sensational.
ANOTHER.
LOUISVILLE, KY, Sept. 26.-The report as to
yellow fever in Louisville telegraphed from
Cincinnati tonight is absurd in the extreme.
1t is entirely uncal1ed for and entirely with
out foundation.

made the following statement: The generou
sympathy of the whole country for the distres
prevailing in this city finds expression in varie'
contributions, quite as useful as money. Thu
the Y. nj. G. A. has received from it's sister as
sociations of st. Louis and Detroit contribu
tions Of clothing and clothes, and from tn
ladies of the fruitand flower mission of Detroi
large package of delicious fruits. Ladies AM
church organizations can render material aic
by similar gifts. The fever has throw,
under the care of the association upward
of 2, 400 cases Of fever. and large number o
destitutes. The contributions have not equale
| the demands made on it, and now as genera

more money 1t is feared that before the sick

| on it's hands without means to carry patient
| through to convalescence- The associate
still wants continued aid from its friends
