Threats of Seizing zebree Evoke a
Warning from the Fort.
Rio GRANDE CITY, TEX, Sept. A--Ca-
trino Garcia, who was shot on Friday at
this place by Victor Zebree. is still living,
and has chance Of recovering, as the sur
geon at Fort Ringgold says.the ball struck
no vital part. Zebree, who was pursued
and shot at by Mexican friends of Garcia,
reached Fort Ringgold In safety, and
surrendered himself to the com
lnanding officer, Col. Clendenin. He
will be kept in military custody
until the sheriff Of this comfy feels that he
can protect him. The Mexicans made "a
demand on the military for zebree, but
Col. Clendenin refused to deliver him UP,
and notified them that any attempt to take
him by force would draw the fire of Cat
ling guns and of tho entire force on them.
The soldiers in the garrison were each served
with 100 rounds of ball cartridges, and slept
on their arms on Saturday night. In order 70
prevent the ordering Of more rangers and
any communication between Fort Ringgold
and thedepartment headquarters, the Mexi-
cans tore down the telegraph wires between
this place and Fort Ringgold. Wiser coun-
sci in connection with the possible recovery
Of Garcia has had the effect of restoring
order.

The Health of the Place Good and
Every Precaution Taken.
WINDSOR, FLA, Sept. 24-The health OF
this place is good. The people here do no,
expect visitation Of yellow fever, even
should it become epidemic in Gainesville
ten miles away-as all necessary precautions
have been taken The outbreak of the
fever SO near us caused some excite
ment at first, but it has about subsidized, but
all seem determined TO take no risk. Every
neighboring town is fully aroused to the
necessity of keeping out everything or
person coming from or near an infect ed
community.
Provisions in many places are already
scarce, and unless they can be allowed 10
come through Gainesville it will be imposs-
BILE for tie merchants Of this place to re-
plenish their stocks, which, however, will
only necessitate a change OF diet. The
working people of the place can get en-
ployment at Mr. Vonderhellen's bucket
factory and with the Windsor Manufactur-
ing Company, which will soon be in run
ming condition and will put their produc-
tions before the public.
Prairie creek has been deepened and
cleared of distinctions, and the boat can
now run out of Newnan's lake to the Florida
Southern railway at Windsor junction,
which will give this place connection with
the outside world by boat.
Rain has seriously damaged the cotton
Other crops are good.

Hutton again refused

DIR. Hutton again refused to
receive the discharged nurses, but after re-
plying by giving authority from the sur
geon general, DR.. Mitchell sent on seven
by the noon train to-day. Although CRATE
ful for all assistance, DR.. Mitchell thinks it
advisable for the relief committees through
out the country to communicate
with the board of health by
wire before sending ON either nurses or
physicians. He has telegraphed for ten
female nurses from Tampa, and DR.. j. Z.
Wall replied that they would be here to-
morrow morning.
MEETING OF THE COMMITTEE.
The regular meeting of the executive
committee of the auxiliary association was
held to-day. Mr. Schumacher reported
that the contributions amounted to nearly
$4,000. w. B. Owens reported that he had
mapped out line of work for the employ
ment of more help under pay, and desired
several days i'll which to test the new
methods pursued in the relief department..
Mr.. McMurray called attention to the
necessity of cutting down the bills for relief
and yet to furnish all who needed assistance
with proper aid,
RELIEVING MACCLENNY.
1t was stated that the committee was do
ing all in its power that could be considered
reasonable for the assistance of Macclenny
and the Jackso willie people at Henderson
vile, n. c., and other places. 1t was re-
solved that Dr.. j. C. Kenworthy be re-
queSted to charter special train and at
once investigate the condition of affairs at
Macclenny, taking with him the supplies re-
quested and funds with which to pay such
physicians and nurses as he deemed neces-
sary. Capt. w. G. Cooper reported that
thirty-eight houses were completed at Camp
Mitchell, but that there was no store-room
kitchen nor an eating room at present, and
that until these were furnished it would be
impossible TO move people out to the camp.
To-day DIR. Kenworthy went to Mac
clenny on a special train with ice, provis-
ions and nearly 81 900 in casn. He will
make report regarding the needs of the
people there.
A TRAIN FROM FERNANDINA.
Tonight special train came from Fer
nanGiua for nurses for p. T. Maxwell who
is sick with yellow fever there. A doctor
ami three male nurses were sent. r. S.
Lukenbill died there this noon of fever 1t
is reported that eight deaths have occurred
there in the last week.
NOT VERY CHEERING.
The situation indicates little prospect of
Improvement.
Business is cut off by local quarantine
throughout the state.
More than half the stores here are now
closed, and the others are doing but little
business. Only one regular train arrives and
departs each day on the various railroads,
except those running to the beach. The
railroad business is very small.
The boat lines on the river, from this
point, have all stopped.
1t is impossible to approximate the num-
ber of cases that have not been reported to
the board of health. One physician has
had over 100, but few of which have been
reported.
Among the discharged yellow fever rsa-
tients are Rev. DIR. Weller rector of St.
Johns church, and Mrs. Weller.
Rev. w. Fl. Dodge is resting comfortably
tonight.

DANGER DAILY DECREASING.
The Opinion of the Secretary of the
Illinois Board of Health.

The Opinion of the Secretary of the
Illinois Board of Health.
CHICAGO, Sept. 24.-Dr. J. H. Rauch,
Secretary of the State Board of Health
arrived from Washington yesterday after
having attended the conference of the State
Boards of Health held at Nashville. He
says the shotgun system of quarantine pre-
walls most extensively in Tennessee, and its
cruelty and barbarity is illustrated in the
killing of man who left a train at Durant,
KY. DR.. Rauch approves the course of the
authorities at Louisville in inviting refugees
from the south. Relative to the aspect of
affairs in the southern states the doctor said
NO DANGER IN TENNESSEE.
"From personal observation during the
conference at Nashville, and from official
reports received, l see no reason to change
the opinion expressed by me a week ago,
that there is practically no danger of yellow
fever IN Tennessee, although the develop
ments at Decatur, Ala, and jackson, Miss.
increase the possibilities of it. SO far only
one death has occurred in Tennessee-at
Wildwood, and that was of refugee from
Decatur. This was week ago, and
so far no other cases have
occurred in that locality. The death Of a
Decatur refugee at Louisville is the only
one that has occurred in Kentucky. IL II
had not been for the Decatur outbreak, the
true nature of which was for some time
doubted, the conference at Nashville would
have agreed upon the southern boundary OF
Tennessee as the limit north of which there
was no danger. But owing to the panic
existing in Chattanooga and Memphis, the
northern boundary line of the state was
adopted.
THE ONLY REAL DANGER.
"The only real danger of spread of the
fever now is in the southern portions OF
South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Missis
sippi, Louisiana and Texas. The danger
line Is daily moving south, and the most
powerful ally in preventing the spread OF
the disease is constantly lowering the tom.
perature. The situation is not nearly so
alarming as it was in the months of July
and August, 1878 and 1879. The chief
source of concern is the fact that the shot
gun quarantine prevails. and in many in
stances the regular health authorities are
overridden by mob. Unfortunately this
condition of things may last for some days,
even IL no outbreak of fever occursn

skirts of the Town.
OCALA, FLA, Sept. 24.-This city is under
strict quarantine, having Gordon of guards
(mounted), drawn around in about radius
of half a mile from the court house. The
guards that went to Fernandina to quell
the longshoreman riot, were sent out Of
town on their return to camp twenty
miles south, by the efforts Of w. A. Agnew
who pays all their expenses.
DR.. Marean, who is an old yellow fever
physician, having been through the epi
iemic in Memphis, reports them well and
hearty. There is no doubt but that the
guards Of Gainesville contracted the fever
in an infected coach. The Ocala company
did not go or return with them.
Business is dull, on account of strict quar-
antine regulations.
Ocala's health record is splendid and can.
not be beaten. The rifles returned from
their Blue Springs Run quarantine this
morning in perfect health. Thirty volun-
teer guards continue to do duty night and
day.

Infected Coaches.

Infected Coaches.
New ORLEANS, Sept. 4.-As a precau-
tionary measure to allay apprehension, the
president of the board of health has issued
an order to the representatives of the vari-
Gus roads coming into this city and passing
through or near infected points not to bring
into the city any coaches in which refugees
from infected points have Travelled north.
All local trains on the Illinois Central
railway have been abandoned Only the
through trains are running as usual.
Commercial Agent Gen. Glynn, acting
under instructions received last evening,
has withdrawn all trains ON the Eastern
railroad on account of the action of the
quarantine authorities of Belair, Miss, and
York, Ala, in refusing to allow trains to
pass those points.
There is not an infected place on the line
Of the Queen and Crescent route from New
Orleans to Cincinnati.
The shotgun quarantine is continued
throughout Mississippi.
Mail trains are generally abandoned, as
there is no general connection now between
Chattanooga and Memphis, and Cairo mails
have been diverted via Nashville, Mont
gomery and New Orleans
The Ficduune's special from Macon,
Miss, says that the authorizes OF that town
have passed an order removing the quaran-
tine against Meridian and allowing all
trains on the Mobile and Ohio railroad TO
stop and take and deliyer passengers and
freight from all points except those hereto
fore mentioned This is accepted as n hope
iul sign that the panic-stricken people Of

BISMARCK ON THE ABSTRACT.
The Chancellor Expresses Doubt o
It's Authenticity.

The Chancellor Expresses Doubt oi
It's Authenticity.
BERLIN, Sept. 24-Prince Bismarck has
expressed the opinion that the alleged alb
stract of the late Emperor Frederick's
diary, published in the Deutsche Keunde.
schdu last week, is apocryphal. This view
of the chancellor was given after he had
carefully examined the matter published,
and was in response to a definite question
as to his idea of the authenticity OF the
alleged abstract.
The Cologne Gazette publishes semi
official dispatch from Berlin which states
that the abstract was published without
Emperor Williams knowledge and against
his wish. The dispatch further states that
the abstract contains a series of inaccur-
acIes. Well informed persons believe that
the work as published was specially pre-
pared. The original was mutilated and
distorted and its real character destroyed
by the deliberate selection of certain ex-
tracts. The parts published are not genuine
throughout.
ITS PUBLICATION UNAUTHoRIzED.
The North German Gazette, Prince Bis
marck's organ, states that 1t is authorized
to declare that the abstract from Emperor
Frederick's diary was published without
Emperor Williams knowledge The Ga
zette says: Judging from the recollections
of persons concerned. the work contains
such great chronological mistakes and errors
OF fact that its commences must be doubted.
II is impossible that its whole contents
could have enanated from Emperor Fred
orick or have been noted by him while the
facts were fresh in his mind. The Post says
that the extracts are genuine, as does also
Prof. Delbruquek, late Prince Waldemayer's s
tutor. The Iost says that the North Ger

The Post further declares that the theory
that Empress Victoria is responsible for
the publication of the extracts is untenable.

probability is that the Cairo. Mobile and Mem

with any degree Of certainty is by way of Mont
gomery, and even this route is threatened. The
people along the Vicksburg and Shreveport
