CHICAGO, August 2s.-A special
from Guaymas, Mexico, August Is,
says the captain of the Port Of Quay
mas received an official notice from
the minister of war that q vessel has
arrived at Salines Cruz with Asiatic
cholera on board. He instructs the
captain of the Port to allow no one
to take vessels arriving from
Salines Cruz, or from there to other
points lower on the coast. The Of
ticlal notice bears date, City of Mex
leo, August Is, Similar notices have
been received at Mazatlan, San
Bias. Altata, Mazanilla and other
Pacific ports. Salines Cruz is the
chief port for the State of Tehuante-
pee and lies 1000 miles south of
Guaymas or the Pacific Coast. It is
considered unaccountable here that
any person could arrive there
from the infected districts of
Europe. 1t is generally believed the
vessel in question is from China,
and brings the original cholera
germs. The news causes great un-
easiness along the coast cities, it being
the first information of the arrival of
Asi: tic cholera on this continent.
