THEsoUTMsnN PLAGUE.
The Epidemic said to be Mild Ono
and bAatmx.


MEMPHIS, Tenn, July 27.-There
were thirteen new cases ofyellow fever
and four deaths yesterday. To-day
there were fourteen new cases and nine
deaths.
At meeting of the Howard Associa
ton held this afternoon, 1t was unani-
mously resolved that the association
needs no assistance at present from
physicians or nurses from abroad to at
tend to the comparatively few cases
now under its charge.
With heartfelt thanks to the many
who have already kindly rendered
their services, which will be gratefully
remembered, the association states that
under no circumstances will the ser
vices of unacclimated persons b. here
after accepted.
Two colored military companies went
into camp to-day on the bluffs under
orders of Colonel John T. Cameron, OF
th. Governors staff. The Police aid
Fire D partmepts have been strength
ened, and the authorities do not now
anticipate any trouble.
Camps for the colonization of poor
people will positively be established
Tomorrow.
Alta meeting Of citizeus an execu-
tive committee was appointed and an
address to the citizens was issued, call
ing for aid and asking assistance for
the maintenance of order and protect
ing life and property during the pre-
valence OF the yellow fever.
1t was thought that the Poard Of
Health would have declared the fever
epidemic yesterday, but after careful
revision of the reports from all the un
dsrtakers, the result showed that out
of seventy one deaths reported for the
week only thirty four had been caused
by yellow fever.
On and after August l, trains on the
Louisville and Nashville Railroad west
Of Clarksville, Tenn, will be discon.
The wife and two daughters of DR..
Thomas 5. Easton, formerly OF New
York, were stricken with yellow fever
this afternoon.
