trouble in the city, although three persons, who
oaught the disease abroad and weresattacked by
g. after their arrival in New-York were SICK IN
crowded tenement-houses and in hospital WARDS
several days before the disease was recognized
Some of the persons who were exposed to the
oontaeion may also be attacked with the fever,
hut they all are under careful observation by
sanitary inspectors who will isolate them promptly
at the first symptom Of danger. Fanny Goldberg
and Antonio Martinelli, who were sent to North
BROTHER Island, were believed to be recovering
from the fever yesterday. No other person has
developed the disease in the city.
Reports from Hamburg, Germany, indicate that
there have been no cases of typhus fever In that
city in several months. DR.. Cyrus Edison has be-
leved that the three recent cases of typhus fever
in New-York originated in Hamburg lodging
houses, but the disease may have been contracted
on the steamships sailing from that city.
Scarlet fever a disease which is an ever present
scourge in this city, is killing more children than
usual II even leads to diphtheria as destroyer
of infants. DIR. Edison yesterday furnished the

The controversy between the Exchange and the
Auctioneers' Association wakes warm. The directors
OF the former have sent the following explanation Of
the differences TO its members
When the Exchange formed It's object was 70
introduce uniform methods aud to correct certain
abuses which hsI crept into usage, alike to the detf-
mcnt Of property and Of all honest brokers and
aucaoneer. Foremost among these abuses was the
question of fictitious sales. Any method whereby
false quotations can be established may be utilized as
powerful engine of fraud either to entrap the unwary
buyer or to secure excessive loans on real estate.
With a view Of preventing this evn ON the fifth day
of March, 1880, your board adopted the following
rules:
"Rule 90 An auctioneer shall not raise bid. nor
shall he countenance any fictitious bidding or byblo-
ding or any practice at auction sales calculated to de-
ceive bidders impose fictitious value on property
offered for sale.
"Rule 81. An auctioneer violating the above rules
shall be liable to expulsion suspension OF privileges
