DELUS1oNS CONCERNING THE DIsEASE-How TIE
TIDE OF TRAVEL EBBS
There Is deluSOn among the inmates of the
tenement houses in New York to the effect that
cholera Is bound to return there once every seven
teen years. That this Is not true is shown by the
fatality OF the disease in 1s49, when 5Or persons
died, and In 1854, when 500 persons died. Another
deusion regarding cholera is that fear OF the dis
ease Will produce 1t In many persons. Assistant
Sanitary Superintendent James, OF New York. said:
ut Is Impossible that fear would cause any person
TO have the cholera in the absence OF exposure to
the germs OF the disease. Fright and anxiety have
been known to cause diarrhoea and other physical
disturbances but contagious diseases are not pro-
duced In that way. Doubtless fear would hasten
the death OF person suffering from cholera, but
person VINO Is not afraid OF cholera need not sup
pose that he Is sure not to catch 1t for that reason
II he Is exposed under certain circumstances The
power TO resist disease depends mainly upon the
physical health OF a person. Fear may sometimes
, cause general debility which will weaken the
power OF resistance 1t is best for people exposed
to cholera germs to keep COOL and avoid either ex-
cltement or severe physical exertion which would
tend to deb1l1tate them"
That the cholera scare has wonderfully affected
travel can be seen by the empty saloons OF the Eu
ropean steamers. The Wednesday fleet OF outgoing
steamships comprised the Servia, Elder, Amerique
the queen and Schiedam, and altogether they car
ried less than $50 passengers The Servias winter
lists are larger than that, and the ships seem al
most deserted In comparison with their usual
crowds.

An Official report upon the fuel used
on Russian railways has been prepared
by Gen. Possiet, the minister of ways
and communications. 1t appears from
this report, which is concerned with the
year 1881, that of tho forty-nine railway
companies existing in the empire, only
four were using wood exclusively for
their locomotives. The lines were all
short ones, running through forest
tracts abundantly supplied with wood
and far away from coal supplies. Tho
bulk of the lines used coal, and during
the year the aggregate consumption OF
all the railways was 563,039 cubic
Russian fa'homs of wood and upward of
l,230,0OO tons of coal. The quantity of
English coal used was only l5O,450 tons,
most of which was burned on the Baltic
and on the southwestern lines. The
report notices Il general tendency tow
ard larger consumption of Russian and
Il diminished one of foreign coal. The
increase in tho use of Russian coal is
given at 10000 tons, or S per cent within
the year. Only 10000 tons Of German
coal were burned, and these were used
on lines near the German border. Since
the report was drawn up there has been
q considerable enlargement in the sup
ply to the railways in the DOnetH and
Moscow coal, and the uso of petroleum
as an engine fuel has become almost
general on the lines near tho Caucasus
The Russian import duties on foreign
coal were increased not long ago. Lon
