There is no reason why this
country should relax its precaution-
airy measures against cholera. There
is, perhaps, more probability of it
reaching US next year than there
was of its coming this summer.
The plague has greatly increased
rather than diminished in Europe
this season. In Italy and France
last year the deaths from cholera
were about 10000. Up to the be
ginning of last week, the number of
deaths from the scourge officially
reported thus far this summer, in
Spain alone. was 72.347=C.-J.

penter, Superintendent of the N ational Park,
In an interview with your correspo ndent,
characterized the charges against him, pub

two months this winter was in obedience to
orders from the department, calling him to
Washington. The government horses, not
at winter pasture, were at the disposal of the
Assistant Superintendent. The location of
lands In the Park In his name at the time Il
was believed the bill for Its reduction had
passed, was without his knowledge or con-
sent. He has had no relations with the He
oarts ether than In his official capacity. Mr..
Carpenter believes the article In Forest
and Stream was written by enc Of his assis-
tants who has long bsen openly opposed to
him.

GRANTS MALADY.
WHO SHALL DECIDE WHEN DOCTORS
DISAGREE?
Is It Cancer or Not2

NEW YORK, April 1s.-The Herald says:
Grants physicians express privately great
confidence in their diagnosis. They say the
history Of the progress of the case has been
carefully compiled as 1t has proceeded, and
when made public here there will not DO an
unprejudiced person who will read 1t intel
ligently who will not be satisfied that their
conclusions of the character Of the disease
they had to deal with were correct. They
admit that 1t is . cancer with some pecu-
they think 1t would not be prudent at pres
emit TO give to the public. The enc broad
fact, hswever, that they have had to deal,
In Grants case, with cancer there has never
been and Is not new anything but the most
unanimous opinion among the four physi-
clans In charge.
1t further says, in speaking more particu-
larry Of the improvement of Grant, and In
regard to his apparent increase Of vitality
One Of his physicians said yesterday: "The
treatment We have pursued to build up the
strength of the General has been success
full, and we are glad of 1t; but wa have
not the slightest doubt that the cancer Is
pursuing its deadly progress. At the same
themselves, there will be many vicissitudes,
In all probability, and those which we fear
most are hemorrhage and strangulation."
PHILADELPHIA, April 1s.-A most care
full and accui ate analysis of the grounds for
hope in General Grants case appears from
the pen Of Talcott Williams, Of tho editorial
staff of the Press, but now in New York.
He has apparently conferred with Grants
physicians and friends and writes with ex-
ceeding caution, but declares that while
Grants doctors are professionally agreed,
they differ personally as to the precise char.
scter OF the disease, He sums up the case
follows: The doctors in charge, taken as .
whole. believe Gen. Grant has cancer, and
that fatal termination is inevitable. At the
same time, there is equally conclusive evil
dence that while neither of his physicians
would professionally admit it, tive of them
have In private and personal interviews held
mouiuSu IL nOL ulsocuLinS NloWS lTOu tuo
above. Reports of this furnish the basis for
the conflicting stories which have gone
abroad. Among the reports passing current
and accepted by some newspaper authorities
is one that DR.. Sands said, bluntly: "Gen.
ersl Grant has never been In imminent or
immediate danger''-said 1t when every tel
egraph Office In the country was hanging out
bulletins prefguring death as near. Some
weeks ago two Of the physicians acted as If
they deemed it unwIse 10 assume that the
symptoms could be definitely, publicly and
finally stated to indicate cancer. This has q
manifest Importance as bearing upon recent
reports, although the reason given for sup
pressing this medical statement was one
based on professional etiquette. DR.. Shrady's
definition of the cancsrous growth was beset
and bounded by Limitations not always pres
ent In his uttsrances. The malady has now
taken the favorable turn which the medI-
cal term used suggested as possible, but
which at no stage they explicitly declared.

Tho Riot at Cork.

Cork, April 16.-At 2 o'clock this aftar-
noon the streets are quiet and there Is scarce
ly any trace Of last nights riots. The peo-
pie dispersed shortly after midnight. The
reports Of the riot sent out last night and
early this morning are greatly exaggerated.
As far IS can be learned up V this hour,
there were only few broken heads, several
slight wounds and injuries received BY not
more than dozen Of persons. The damage
TO property was also small and was confined
to the smashing Of windows In number OF
houses.
An English reporter Of London daily
newspaper remarked 10 the chief of police
this afternoon that he never saw . more
pious riot. The chief laughed Il the report
er's observation and remarked that the fuss
last night was a mere nothing, "Only the
boys letting Oh q little natural sxuberance
of spirits"
DUBLIN, April 1o.-Ths royal party ar
rived safely st Killarney this afternoon, and
with the exception OF some slight kissing
were cordially greeted.

THE REL INSURGENTS.
Their Numbers and Determin ation-How They
Are Armed.

NEW YORK, April ia special from
Humboldt, Northwest Territory, says: Mes.
sengers from the North, who met and con-
versed with the insurgent half. breeds, say
that the half breeds are now encamped on
both sides of the river at Batoches, the larger
forces being on this side, and that, having
large quantities of provisions, number of
half-starved Indians have joined them. As
far as can be learned, Riel has about $50
halfbreeds, and between 800 and 600 In
dians, including Sioux from Prince Albert
District. The insurgents have forty Win
chester rifles, twenty Sniders and 500 rounds
of Snider ammunition, captured in the Duck
Lake fight, and q large number of shot guns.
They will have the advantage Of having the
woods in which to fight, unless shelled out
by artillery, and with their knowledge Of
this style Of fighting may prove formidable
foes. They are determined, 1t is said, to
fight to the bitter end. Several of them have
said to couriers that, as they have only the
alternative of being hanged or shot, they
prefer the latter. While not hoping to sue
coed, they anticipate being able to seriously
worry the military and prolong the cam
psign.
NEW YORK, April 16.-Ths Herald's Win
nipeg special says. John Brown, of Prince
Albert, being interviewed, said: "Risl told
me himself that he expected help from near
ly all the Indians, and have no doubt he
will get 1t, as they are greatly dissatisfied
with the manner in which the government
has allowed them to starve. Riel has run.
ners all over the country, and news Is car.
ried back aud forth among the different
tribes almost as quick as you get messages
BY WIRE" Besides the help already men.
toned, Brown said Risl counted on one
hundred cowboys and half: braods from
Montana. In reference to the present con-
dition Of Prince Albert, Brown said that
The besisged settlers must be half starved
ere this, a. their -four had almost run out
before be left.
MONTREAL, April 16.-Grezt surprise was
felt here to-day by the news that the Sixty
nth Montreal volunteers, now at Calgary,
refuses to proceed against Riel, making the
excuse that they need squipments. This il !
he only French Canadian regiment Of Mon |

French half breeds under Riel. A meeting
II the Club National was held this evening |

Canadians we're present. Resolutions were |
'ut to the meeting blaming the government
or the troubles, and supporting the half

ivil rights which other citizens Of the Do
ninion enjoy.

REV. DIR. NEWMAN is reported as saying
that predictions ofvarious kinds have reached
Grants family regarding the Generals life.
They put no faith in astrology; don't pretend
to know anything about 1t. "Yet it will be
remembered, about month ago." said New
man, 'that an astrologer set certain days In
March In which the General would be very
low. With . single exception, l think he
hit the right days. He said If the General
survived the attack of March 31st he would
live until September without another criti-
cal attack. A coed many prophecies to the
same effect have come to them. They could
not well fail to inspire . sort of hope and
with hope have come suggestions Of plans
for warm weather, should the General be
alive month or SO longer" Thus the lucky
guess Of one astrologer among the tens of
thousands of mountebanks who gull the
public as fortune tellers, clairvoya ants, etc.,
Is likely to revive their confidence trade for
. century. The name of Grant will now be
added to that Of Napoleon and Josephine in
the traditions with which the gullible world
Is nourished, and microscopes" will 60 up

OPINION OF AN EXPERT.
Gen. Grant at no Time in Imminent Danger
of Death.

Boston, April 2O.-Dr. George r. Elliott,
the New York specialist who made micro
scopic examination of the tissues taken from
Gen. Grants throat, the result of which was
published in the Medical Record, giving the
public the first intimation that the Generals
disease was of cancerous nature, was In
Boston Saturday on professional business.
He said, In reply to questions, that the micro
scopical findings were characteristic Of cpl.
thsloma or epithelial cancer, which is the
least malignant Of all forms of cancer. 1t is
q localized disease, and does not tend to az
feet the internal organs. A cancer of this
Kind oftentimes remains fifteen years with
out producing any serious trouble. In Gen.
Grants case, the trouble being located in the
throat, It becomes much more serious, but
still tho disease Is of the same superficial
character. DIR. Elliott said the lew state in
which the General was two weeks ago was
due to the debilitated state Of his physical
condition. He further expressed the epin.
Ion that he has not been at any time in any
immediate danger of death. His life, the
Doctee thinks, will be prolonged for con-
siderable period.
