JACKSONVILLE, Get 4-Only one death,
that Of Col. j. J. Daniels, occurred in this
city from yellow fever. Two of the three
deaths in this city We're reported by visiting
physicians, and no cause was assigned. Later
in the day it was found that the patients had
died OF other diseases.
The encouragement which our people have
been given by this announcement cannot be
overestmateI This straw of hope has been
seized upon with the eagerness of the drown
ing man.
Not death from yellow fever has been re
ported up TO this writing, and only twelve
new cases. The deaths since July number
2GJ, and the number of persons who have
been i'll with the disease 2,s}5.

sentative, out of ell danger and able TO am
swer for himself. Mr.. King-Hall will not
attempt any work for a few days. however,
though he is already planning for a resump
tion Of his duties
W. A. Drake, Harry Miners nurse, who
was in very bad way, is recovering under
new-old treatment. DIR. Mitchell discover
cd that he had had a quarrel with his affian
ced Miss Alton also a New York nurse, and
that this was so depressing him that his death
would result. The sturdy physician told Miss
Alton that unless she "made up with Drake
he would die from lack of motive for living,
and she would be responsible She was OBJ
durate at first, but afterward stole up tc
brakes bedside and stealthily kissed his fever
ed brow. Poor fellow, he opened his eyes,
and-well, the result is that he is improved

Among the many cures and preventives
for yellow fever, DR. Nunez De Villavicensa,
OF New Orleans. brings forward the latest.
He would inoculate well persons with blood
or fluid from the intestines of yellow fever

vegetable, not animal, and vaccination under

Chicago street Cars VIII Probably be Tied
Up Saturday Morning.


CHICAGO, Ills. Oct 4.-The meeting Of the
en- loyes of the North Chicago Gable road,
which was to decide whether there would Be
a stride on that lines began at midnight
Seven hundred men are employed by the
company ON the north side and thousand
more on the west side The company is con-
trolled by the Yerkes, or Philadelphia syndi-
cate. and over two-thirds of the city is exclu-
sively dependent upon it for street car trans
portation
The meeting decided at o'clock to go out
on strike next Saturday morning. The vote
by which strike was decided upon was 400 to
2. A large majority Of the conductors and
drivers employed on the north side were
present. 1t was evident from the start that
most of the men were bent on rejecting the
offers of President Yerkes, Luke Coyne and
John Goodwin Of the advisory board repre-
senting the three street car organizations Of
the city, boldly advocated a strike, assuring
the north side men that their cause would be
supported by the conductors and drivers Of
the south and west sides
The grievances of the men are twofold
They oppose the set car system and demand
increased wages. BY 'tset carr system Is
meant schedule or time table, by means Of
which men claim to be actually on duty for
thirteen hours, while they are only paid for
twelve hours The hours of work under it are
changed daily, so that they have no regular
time for sleeping or eating, and their health
Is consequently impaired. They demanded
twenty -seven cents an hour and an agreement
that they shall not be compelled to work
more than ten or less than eight hours day.
