negro who died at 712 Washington street

been sent to the quarantine hospital.
NEGROES OPPOSING THE CAMP.

colored people was held to-day at noon at
Cochrane hall. Resolutions opposing the
removal of the blacks to camp, and express
ing their determination to appeal to absent
merchants for assistance were adopted. The

THE SITUATION AT LITTLE ROCK.
LITTLE Rock, July 31.-The work of
making ice by the factory here commenced
to-day. On Monday ice will be supplied by
the factory. Health Officer Colburn, sent to
Grand Gaize by the board of health to ex-
plain to the people that the quarantine
building proposed there is for the detention
of suspected people, transfer of freight, etc.,
and not for a pest house, returned this morn
ing. He reports the Grand Glaize people
unreasonable, and willing to fight rather than
allow the erection of the building. DR.. Col
burn says it was with difficulty the intelli-
gent people could prevent riot and destruc-
ton of railroad property. A man came
down from Charleston, Mo-, to Poplar Bluff
without permission of DR.. Jones, and got
in again on Poplar Bluffs without permis-
sion of DR.. Waters. At Walnut Ridge the
people threatened to hang him if he did not
get out. 1t was determined to send him
back on freight but be took to the woods.
The board of health here have adopted
the following resolution introduced by DIR.
DUNCAN: That the management of the Iron
Mountain Il Southern railroad be notified
that whenever any person, baggage, mail,
express or freight is found on one of their
South bound trains against the quarantine
regulations of the board, the said manage
ment shall arrange for its transportation
back to the point from which they brought
1t without the necessity of delivering the
same at any point on said road.
On motion of DR.. Debrell quarantine was
declined against New Orleans.

tines against New Orleans.
PLANT FROM NEW ORLEANS.
New ORLEANS, July 31.-The board of
health adopted resolutions deprecating the
enactment of severe quarantine regulations
against this city, expressing the opinion
there Is no reason for alarm, and hoping
that soon places and cities that
have through great prudence put
up quarantine bars, will feel it in their DOW
or to take them down and allow the business
of the country to proceed where it can do SO
without any real danger to public health.
DR.. Chopin says there is no fear of cpl
demic. One case is reported at quarantine
station. and two suspicious cases of children
on Washington avenue.
AT ST. LOUIS.
ST.. LOUIS, July 31.-Wm. Martin, who
came up from Memphis soma days ago, taken
sick here, and sent to the city hospital, was
scnt from that institution to quarantine to-
day as suspicious case.
The steamer Holiday from New Orleans,
Bslleof Memphis from Memphis, and Colora-
10 from Vicksburg arrived at quara ptine
after midnight last night and have come up
to the city. The Holidays passengers
about seventy-fve in number, came up By
railroad. There is some mystery as to how
the Holiday got away from quarantine, it
being the intention of the officials there to
retain her. No new cases of yellow fever at
quarantine.
