fell i'll. His disease was not considered dam
gerous until other members Of the family were
similarly affected. 1t was thought to be the
grip. The malady spread rapidly into the
neighboring village Of Stang Du Nord and in
less than week seven-eighths of the inhabitants
were down.
The disease had then assumed a most malignant
form. Deaths followed each other in rapid
succession. The malady spread to all the other
islands. SO that more than 1000 men, women
and children were afflicted, while the death roll
had run into the hundreds. The people be-
came panic stricken and helpless. The out
break was at the opening of the fishing season,
but as nearly every one was affected the fish
cries were entirely abandoned. The islanders
depend on the catch for food and supplies.
The condition ia simply deplorable Deaths
are now so frequent that the dead
have to be Immediately buried in the
merest apology for coffin. In the vicinity of
Fox harbor Capt Jordan has seen upward OF
thirty families actually starving, while Others
are satisfied IL they can get biscuit each as a
days rations. He visited one family named
Jameson, consisting of eight people; four are
dead, the mother ard two children dying and
the father, who is i'll, stated that, excepting a
little Indian meal, he had nothing for food for
two weeks. The terrible condition prevails on
the other islands. ard the supply OF medicine
is exhausted. The captain said unless food was
Immediately sent those who survived the dis
ease would starvs to death. The islands are
under control Of the Quebec government.
They are private property, having been
granted by the British government to Rear
Admiral Sir Isaac Coffin. and are now owned
by his nephew.

is the intention to plant ten acres of each
forty in orchard and vines and then the
racts will be put ON the market with the
purpose of assisting purchasers to erect

A POLL ON SILVER.
A New York Paper Thinks it Has Dis
covered How Congress Stands.

New YORK, Dec. "a morning paper,
Republican, states that after careful
canvass OF the Republican senate it is
able to announce that bill providing for
the free coinage Of silver can not pass the
SD congress over the veto of President
Harrison. The paper aftirms that it has
made poll OF the entire congress, and
the result announced above is based on
replies in writing from 2S0 mem bers of
the United States senate and house. The
poll has occupied several weeks time
The result shows that since the last con-
gress adjourned there has been no abate-
ment OF the free silver sentiment at the
west and south, and Democrats and Re-
publicans in the silver states are stated to
be, with few exceptions, bent to the
| doctrine, but that an overwhelming
majority of the Republican party in con-
gress is pledged to maintain the single
gold standard at all hazards and limit the
output of silver.
| In the last congress 10l Democrats in
the house voted IN favor OF the Bland bill.
In the new congress in the house there
are 236 Democrats, eighty-seven Republi-
cans and eight Farmers Alliance. OF
the PA Democrats and farmers members
1862 are in favor of a free coinage bill.
The majority is 80 great that the presi-
dents veto will be no obstacle to any bill
which the house desires to become law,
for the Democrats, without the Farmers
Alliance, have more than the two-thirds
vote necessary to pass bill over the ex-
ecutive veto. In the house vote by
states is given showing how Democrats
and Republicans are disposed to vote.
a few of the interesting opinions of
senators and representatives. are also
given. Most of the replies were either
