Gen. Warner,a View of IL.

"What do think of the elections" said Gen.
A. j. Warner Of Ohio, repeating STAR re-
porter's question today. 1.-THE vote two years
ago was vote against free trade the vote this
year was vote against the exclusion of trade.
1t was vote also against kingship in the House
and against the force bill; it was vote for free
coinage. 1t efiectually disposes OF Reed and
Mckinley rs possible presidential candidates
II puts Blaine to the front on the republican
side and moves Hill up on the democratic side
But nobody can tell what the election two
years hence will be. Victories won by dis
sensions in the other party or by mixing
issues are not always lasting"

The Cholera In the East.

The marine hospital bureau has received
through the Department of State a letter from
the United States minister at COrea with
reference to the presence of cholera at Fusan.
The number of Coreans who have succumbed to
the disease, he says. is not known. but advices
from the Japanese minister state that up to the
Goth of August (the last date to which partic-
ulars had been received) out of I09 of his
countrymen who had been attacked II had
died.
Advices received by tho minister from vladi-
vostOck, Russia, state that both soldiers and
people have been attacked and the disease has
been exceedingly virulent. but there are no
particulars that can be relied on.
A telegram from the superintendent Of trade
at Fusan TO the minister states that the disease
has been present there since August 5, and in
the last few days has taken on q very severe
character. The people are greatly excited,
and he requests that some regulations be issued
to prevent the Coreans gong into the Japan
csc settlements while the disease lasts.
