A SEASIDE SCARE.

Two Cases of Typhoid Fever Causes a
Stampede at Long Branch.
LONG BRANCH, Aug. 13.-The guests of the
Hotel Bellevue, just above Seabright, stam-
peded yesterday because of two cases of ty-
phoid fever among their number Capt. Jas.
III. Corey proprietor of the hotel, osted the
following notice in the office yesterday after
noon:
81 will close this hotel Monday, sure.'
The patients are N. W. Andrews, brother
in-law of Cyrus W. Field, Jr., and Mrs. Albert
Levy, relative of the Seligmans. Mr. Cory
is very anxious that the sick persons be remov-
ed from the hotel at once. He said if they re-
manned he would not receive any other guest7,
and his loss would be at least S. 800 He said
he had notified Cyrus w. Field, Jr. that Mrs.
Andrews must ts removed tomorrow, and t I'D
Levy he must take his wife away. They had
refused to take the patients from the house.
and he could not afford to keep it open with
only two families th3re. Field said Dr. Hem
ry, the physician attached to the hotel, and
Drs. Meyer. Field and r. q -Ia,.~--~s.,-.,n of
New York, had decided, after long consuta-
ton, Inat Mrs. Levy and Mr.. Andrews were in
a to critical state to be moved at pr,c9nt, and
as soon as they were able to stand removal
they should be taken away. Mr.. Corey want
ed SO, 800 each for keeping the sick persons
here for the next ten days. The physicians
said they could not be removed from the hotel
inside of ten days without running risk of
killing them both. Field says: 'If Corey
will make out his bill charging US reasonable
sum for these members of two families who
but we will not pay the sum he demands, and
cannot allow the sick persons to be removed
unless the physicians say it can be done with
perfect safety"

Funeral of General warren.

NEWPORT, r. L.. Aug. 12-The funeral of
the late Gen. &. X. Warren was observed here
today. The services were held in the modest
little chapel of All Saints, where gather every
Sunday for worship the millionaire cottagers
who visit Newport during the season. A vast
number of such were preSent this morning.
Rev. Messrs. Magll and Cook officiated. De-
ceased's lest wish YVES respected, and conse-
quently the remains were not inclosed in mill
tary garb, but in the simple citizens dress.
His reason for such will never be known; it
cen only be surmised. His relatives spared no
expense in the funeral arrangements, which
were all that wealth could be the means of
carrying out. The casket was of an entirely
new design, and YVES of cone top. 1t was
lined with cream colored satin aud upholstered
all down. The casket itself was of oak, with
solid gold trimmings. There will be an out
side case of polished chestnut, with bronze
handles. Gen. Parke, Col. Barrow, who is in
temporary command Of Gen. Warren's depart
ment, and Gen. Wilson, president of the New
England railroad, were pre- ont, as were Off
GERS from Fort Adams and from the torpedo
station and training ships The pail bearers
were Mayor Franklin, Gen. G. W. Cullum, U.
S. A, Prof Fairman Rogers, Capt. M. G.
Marvin, U. S. N, Postmaster Coggeshall, Gen.
j. FL. Van Allen, Gen. w. s. Hancock and
Gan. j. G. Parke.
After the services at the chapel which were
unusually impressive, the remains were
viewed by great many people. Then the fu-
neral cortege wended its way to she cemetery,
the words "Ashes to ashes, dust TO DUST" were
spoken, simple dirge was played by the band
of the Fourth United States Artillery and
then-the veil is drawn.
