to obtain a better view of Swiss scenery, and con-

with the bleakncss and sterility of midwlnter

moist snow into large balls, they crowded II over
the edge of the plateau In falling it struck softer

Gated at some point outside the city. They
certainly come in contact with the disease
if it exists on trains or boats. and the effect

INFORMATION, ofa semi .otfcial character,
received in this city, reveals the fact that the
St. Louis authorities have become alarmed
and are rcconsidcring their determination to
withhold aid for the erection of a quaran-
tine hospital near this city. When the prop
osition was first submitted to Mayor Over
stolz that dignitary dismissed it with an
indifference bordering upon contempt.
Since the outbreak at Memphis, st. Louis
has awakened to sense Of her real posi-
ton and of the dangers which threaten
her Heretofore our quarantine physi-
clan has been inspecting all trains and
boats arriving at this city, and this action
has been Of as much Importance
to points above us as to ourselves. 1t has
been their greatest safeguard. But in view
of our amended quarantine regulations that
forbid boats to land or trains to stop and
which prohibit the ingrcss of persons or
freight from infected districts, this in
spccton duty Of the quarantine physician
has become unnecessary, and the intimation
from ST. Louis that she would now assist
in the maintenance Of an hospital below here
comes too late. Our people are at present
opposed to the hospital scheme. Reflection
has led them to the conclusion that itwould
be unsafe, while we are free from the scourge,
to take cases from boats and trains and
confnc them any where in this vicinity,
We have resolved to trust to our rigid quar-
antine and sanitary regulations, Ii they
are vigilantly executed We shall have done
everything that lies in our power to keep
the pestilencc from our doors. 1t will be
soon enough to revive the question of an
hospital when the necessity for it arises.
At present we have no need of it, and every
indication is that we shall have none. We adj
nit that this is thc.main gate through which
the disease would have to pass to reach st.
Louis, but our financial burdens now are as
much as We can bear, and we are in no po-
sitiOn TO contribute to the erection or main
tainance Of such an hospital as St Louis
now sees would have pretty cffcctually pro-
tected her from the approach If the disease D..
Her mayor, not over ten days ago, supcrcili-
ously refused to give aid to the project
she is now anxious to have carried out. We
hope for the sake Of the people of st. Louis
that Overstolz action will lead to no scri.

note the success Of efforts to keep the fever
under control in New Orleans. Case, now
yield readily to treatment as shown by the
small proportion OF deaths, and the reports
