DEATH AT CINCINNATI.
CHICAGO, Sept. 13.-Henretta Tobey died here
yesterday from what her physician says was vel
low fever modified by climatic influences. Shewas
formerly from Maine, but came here from Memphis,
where her husband died recently.
CAIRO, ILL.,, Sept 13.-The excitement over the
two cases of yellow fever yesterday has nearly sub
sided. Mulkey died this morning and was promptly
buried, and the premises were thoroughly dlsln-
fected. Several hundred panic-strcken people
went North by the night and morning trains.
CINCINNATI, Sept 13.-This being the day set
apart for prayer for the stricken South, according
to Governor Bishops proclamation there has been
no session of the Chamber of Commerce, Police
Court, or Board of Public Works. Services were
held in several of the churches The rainy weather
of the past day or two has had damaging
effect on the yellow fever patients at the Rohs
Hill Hospital. The cases were being quite
successfully treated until the damp atmosphere
came to interfere. August Schmitt has passed the
crisis and will probably recover. The other patient
II. Rombach, of NewOrleans, died to-day.
GALLIPOus, Ohio, Sept. ia careful examina-
ton of the infected district below the town shows
that there are sixteen cases of yellow fever, nearly
all of which present worse symptoms this morn
ing on account of the cold rain now prevail
ing. Drs. Carr and Slough, of Cincinnati,
are coming here to investigate The cases
reported, and ascertain if they are genuine
yellow fever cases. The panic is entirely alayed in
the city. and the presence Of the scourge would
hardly be suspected except Tor the almost total
pension of business owing to the quarantine against
the place by all the neighboring towns on the river
and self-impOsed one by the country people. Ow-
ing to the vigilance of the health officers not
has appeared i'll the town itself.
