Yellow fever is prevailing with unusual se-s

new cases is diminishing, especially amongst

Aerial Navigation.
SPRINGFIELD, ILL,

SPRINGFIELD, ILL, July 10.
In the Secretary Of States office yester-
day George w. Starr, James Donnell and
Joseph Gotthelp filed certificate for incor-
poration of what is to be known as the
"Aerial Navigation Company of Chicago"
The object of this corporation is stated to
be ''the transportation of passengers and
freight through the air." Two millions of
dollars comprise the capital stock of the
new corporation, and each share to be sold
at $500 The total number of shares is to be-
10000. The immense amount of capital
stool, together with the comparatively small
number of shares,is evidence that the scheme
is something more than an aggregation
of intangible ideas, and from the informa-
ton CLEANED it is probable something more
will be heard of the "Aerial Navigation
Company" in the near future. It is as
serted that the machines to be manu-
featured by this company are a perfectiorn
of the one tested at Hartford, Conn, nearly
two years ago,which at that time attracted
such a widespread interest. Immediate
steps are to be taken toward the manu-
facture of a monster machine of great
power and capacity, and if the inventors
OF the machine are not over enthusiastic
it will be but few months before the
scientific and inventive world will be cleo
trified by the announcement of attained
perfection in aerial navigation.

A Hideous Hoax.

culating to the effect that General Grant
had dropped dead on the street in New

dents death. A great many friends of
the Grant family in this city were seen,
but none, of them had received such tele-
gram. Bulletins were posted in some OF
the newspaper offices saying that dis
patch had been received announcing
Grants death, but that it lacked confrma-
ton and was probably canard. The great
body of the people believed the report and
about nine A. NJ flags were floating at
half-mast on all the public buildings
in honor Of the illustrious dead.
After twelve o'clock dispatches were re-
ceived at the Western Union office stating
