Fever Continues to Increase in Jacksonville
The City Shut OF from the North.

JAcKsoNvILLE, Fla, Aug. 30-Twenty-t three
new cases OF yellow fever were reported to the
board of health for the twenty four hours end
ing at o'clock this afternoon. Among them
were members Of several leading families
Father Kenney, Mrs. DR.. H. P. Daniel, Mrs
Susan Senele aud o. S. Keen. There wers thrse
deaths during the same time-Lafsyette Dancy,
confidential clerk OF the internal revenue Office;
Mrs. d. j. Crowley, wife of the manager of the
Western Union telegraph Office, and David
Luigue, an Italian. A number Of patients
have been discharged. but the record of
discharges is no longer kept by the Board of
Health. II can hardly be said that the disease
is more malignant than q week ago. Except for
yellow fever flags and badges of the sanitary
police, strangers passing through the streets
would hardly notice anything more than an
traordinary summer dullness. Intense indigna-
ton was caused hero by the action of the sur
geon general In stopping refugees from going to
healthy points 10 which they have been invited.
and requiring that all be detained at quarantine
camp.
President Daniels. Of the Citizens Auxiliary
Sanitary Association, telegraphed vigorous
protest. asserting that many Of our best citizens
would prefer TO keep their wives and children in
the stricken city rather than subject them to
the exposure, without protection, of q mixed
quarantine camp where there is no hospital for
the suitable care of any taken with the fever.
The case of young Pollard, who WAS brought
back sick from Camp Perry and died, created
great apprehension and caused the adoption of
a resolution, yesterday, asking the establish
ment Of a hospital near the camp. Two hun
dred rough frame houses. it is stated, will be
built tor quarantine camp. Efforts will be
made TO depopulste the city as soon 40 possible.

For the. past few weeks the Democrats have

the intention of Col. Brics, though against the

poll of the two States il the canvass proved
satisfactory to the Democrats. The report is
in, and there Is gnashine of teeth and gen.

the secret agents were completely taken
aback by the outlook, and made a re-
port that things had changed since ex-senator
Hendricks carried the State in 1884. Equally
discouraeine reports come in from this State.
Il is said the poll in New York was to discover
the sentiment as regards Hill! aud Cleveland,
and whether it would DO policy to throw over
che former and run some other Democrat for

that they will have to put Governor Hill on

that necessity exists for the trip, as there are
