Great Distress Among the Poor, who
Are Almost wholly Dependent Upon
Charity.
JACKSONVILLE, Sept 27-To- day 131 cases
of yellow fever were reported to the board of
health-40 whites and 81 colored. There
were eight deaths-Antonio Christopher,
Louis e. Billet, D. d. Mccormick, W. F.
Ford, ]. q. Allen, Alice English (colored),
Alvie Herrick and Annie Wilson. Total
cases to date, 2,36s; total deaths, 237. The
general distress among the poor is daily in
creasing, and piteous appeals for relief come
daily from the country districts near the city
to which refugees have fled. The work of
the relief committees is daily expanding.
Within another week probably 90, 900 people,
ninet enths co1ored, will have to be fed by
the hand of charity. The hope of getting
shelter for any considerable number at the
camps is abandoned, though many more are
anxious to go there than was the case two
weeks ago. Late this afternoon Colonel J.
J. Daniel was very low and little hope was
entertained of his recovery. A special from
McClenny reports only three cases of yellow
fever at Ssnderson, nine miles west of that
place-Colonel Pons, wife and child. A spe-
cisl from Gainesville says one new case to-

NEW ORLEANS, La, Sept. 27.-The small
towns having relaxed the quarantine restric-
lions 30 as to allow the railroads to run their
trains under prescribed conditions, Baton
Bouge, Vioksburg and Shreveport have also
modified their quarantine regulations to
similar extent. The people of Meridian find
ing the supply of provisions about exhausted
have condescended to allow the Mobile and
Ohio road to run trains through the town in
order that they may get something to eat.
Hunger appears to have brought the quaran-
tine officials of several other towns in Missis-
sippi to their senses. At Jackson the situa-
tion improves. There have been fifteen cases
and FIVE deaths.
NASHVILLE, Tenn, Sept. PA special
says: Only one new case of fever was report
ed this morning, but since then two well de-
veloped cases and one suspicious case, all
colored, have appeared.

years back, was consulted by the Prince Of

grossly insulted Lord Lyons pointed out
rather bluntly the fact that such 4 combat

The Philadelphlsns are in a guam
dairy In regard TO Mrs. Whiteling, the
condemned murderess. There is no
doubt whatever about her guilt; in
fact II is certain that abe murdered her
husband and two children, and the
only question before the Jury was her
sanity. After hearing the evidence of
the medical experts who had inYesti.
gated her case, the jury decided that
she was sane by rendering verdict OF
guilty Of murder of the first degree,
consequently the Court had nothing 10
do but to sentence her to be hanged.
There is, however, sentiment against
hanging woman, and this sentiment
is being brought out so strong that il
Is doubtful If the Governor will ever
issue his warrant fixing the day oil
execution. There has never been q
woman hanged In Philadelphia, and

II has been suggested that the law
be so amended that all liquor saloons
shall be closed on holidays, the game
as on election days, and the disgraceful
riot which occurred on Sixth street
yesterday Is a strong argument in
favor OF such q change. This riot was
caused by a crowd OF drunken rowdies
who had spent the day In going from
saloon to saloon, until they were ready
for any deYilment. If the saloons had
been closed, it is probable the riot
would not have occurred II seems to
as that some Of the saloon-keepers not
only make trouble for themselves but
also Tor Others who endeavor TO obey
the laws. The actions Of these men
who sell liquor TO others until they are
drunk, and even afterwards, brings
the entire business into disrepute, aud
IL rapidly fostering q sentiment that
will not only demand stricter laws in
relation 10 the liquor traffic, but which
may eVentuale in the abolition Of the
saloons altogether. II liquor cannot
be sold on Christmas or other HOLIDAYS
without N ing our streets with drunken
men and causing riots, 1t will be better
10 close the saloons.
