Postmaster General has received informa-

that the Memphis & Little Rock Railroad
has stopped running and that no mails are
going out or arriving on account of yellow
fever. In a communication to Surgeon
General Barnes the Post-office Department
asks if he can suggest some scientific way of
fumigating the mails by which all danger Of
yellow fever or other similar diseases can be
avoided. An early reply is expected.
THE SURGEON GENERALS OPINION.
Surgeon General Woodwork, of the
United States Marine Hospital Service, is
sued circular to medical officers of the
service, saying, among other things: "The
medical officers of the service are required
to assist the civil health authorities in all
proper and practicable ways when request
ed to do so. Yellow fever is produced by
an invisible poison, capable of self-multi-
plication outside of the human organ, which
it enters through air passages. The disease
can not be said to be epidemic in the
United States from the fact that

AUSTRIA is MORTIFIED.
VIENNA, Aug. 1T.-MuclI modification
is felt here at the unexpected repuIse of the
Austrian forces in Bosnia, and the fear that
it may lesson Austria's prestige among the
powers of Europe. There are rumors that
the Supply Department was very badly
served 1t is said that the repulse has been
even more severe than the official accounts
showed, and the advance will have to be
suspended for eight or ten days. The En-
peror had believed that his armies would
encounter no serious opposition, and would
have nothing to do save to preserve the
peace among different classes of the popula-
ton. 1t is stated when the advance is re-
sumed it will take place under far more fa-
vorable conditions. The convention ar
ranging the terms of occupation has now
been ratified by the representatives OF Aus
tria and Turkey, and under the convention
the Turkish troops must, if need be, COOP
crate with the Austrians in the prevention
of armed resistance.
THE WOUNDED CHIEF.
ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 1.-THE capital
was thrown into state Of intense excite
ment by the audacious attempt to assassi-
nate in the open street Messentzotf, the
Chief of Police, who succeeded to that post
after the wounding and subsequent disms-
sal of his predecessor, who so narrowly es-
capped from the bullet of Vera Sassanlitch.
The scene at the attempted assassination
was striking The Chief, it was known,
passed each day through certain thorough
fare. A number of men assembled at the
corner of the Place Michael, and as NJ. Mes
sentzoff appeared, one of them stepped be-
fore him and interrupted his progress. At
this moment several pistol shots were heard.
NJ. Messentzoff fell, wounded, to the ground,
and the assassins, brandishing their weap-
ons, jumped into conveyance and dashed
away. The wounds of M. Messentzoff are
said to be serious and may prove fatal. Con-
siderable excitement prevails.
GENERAL MEssENTzoFF AssAssINATED.
ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 17.-General Mes
sentzoff, Chief of Police, was assassinated
with dagger after he was conveyed home.
He fingered but short time, when he ex-
pired. The assassins have not yet been ar
rested. 1t is said that the cause of the as
sassination was solely due TO political mo-
tiyes.
