NEW YORK, July 26.-The case OF yellow feyer
developed yesterday In the death Of Mrs. Johan-
ma Brennan, late Of Memphis, and the two cases
sent to quarantine, have created little uneasi-
ness in this community, and some OF the morn
ing papers are calling for rigid enforcement
Of quarantine law on the land side. 1t seems
Mrs. Brennan came here from Memphis last
Tuesday with ten others and took rooms In
tenement house In 10sth street, where five other
families were living. Mrs: Brennan, who had
been atling since her arrival, was so Ill on
Thursday night that her friends sent for DR..
Cocks, OF No. 239 east 112th street. He called
at the house without any suspicion OF the ma.
ture OF the patients disease. A brief examina-
tion OF her satisfied him, however, she was suf-
fertng from yellow fever. The inmates of the
apartments then admitted that they were refu-
gees from Memphis. The rooms OF the families
were then isolated and disinfectantS used. Mrs.
Brennan died yesterday morning and the body
was hastily buried. Mr.. Fitzg1bbOhs, another
OF the refugees, and his wife were apparently
i'll, and were removed with other members OF
the family to quarantine. There was consider
able excitement last night In the vicinity where
the death occurred, which is one Of the foulest
paltS OF the city.

FORMAL PROTEST AGAINST Mr.. CORBIN's
ACTlON.-A subcommittee, appointed at the
meeting OF the board Of delegates OF the Union
OF American Hebrew congregations, at New
York, on Wednesday, has since then drawn up
the following formal protest against Mr.. Cor
bins action In attempting to exclude the He.
brews from Mahattan Beach:
"We feel that public opinion emphatically
condemns the recent action OF the Manhattan
Beach company, through its president, In de-
clar1ng the Hebrews Of New York unworthy OF
the enjoyment OF equal privileges with others.
We insist that caterers for the public amuse-
ment or convenience should refrain from such
od1ous discrimination against any class of resi-
dents, whatever their nationality or religious
convictions. New York city, the commercial
center OF the United States, Is itself anronted
by such contemplate manifestation OF bigotry
aid prejudice, affecting q Dudy OF residents
among the foremost In all that implies respec-
liability and honorable aspirations. We recon-
mend our cO-relIgionlsts, while they naturally
in common with other decent citizens, Will
withhold their countenance from the company
whose president has wantOnly aSsailed the He
brew name, to abstain from public demonStra-
tions, which would simply elevate into undue
importance this vulgar and brutal attack. 1t
is beneath our dignity to take any further no.
tfce OF so despicable an aSSailant: We may safe
~ leave our defense to the intelligent and ad-
vaDced public sentiment OF our fellow-cttizens,
Irrespective OF creed or race"
