CHICAGO, August 29.-The account Of
the efficient work done by American
missionaries in the cholera infected dis
trict Of Persia, recently published, has
inspired the following appeal;
To the PubIie:
Atameeting Of the Woman's Pres
byterian Board OF Missions OF the
northwest held in Chicago on Friday,
it was decided to respond to the appeal of
Hon. John W. Foster, and the Amerf!
can minister to Persia for aid to, the
American mission hospital at Teheran,
where hundreds OF cholera patients are
being treated. The heroic efforts Of the
American missionaries there TO stay
the cholera and to alleviate the distress
resulting therefrom, command univer-
sal admiration and invite prompt CO.
operation on the part Of their country
men,. The northwest Is more deeply
concerned in this than any other sec
tIon, as the American mission hospital
at Teheran was established by the
yoman's Presbyterian Board Of the
northwest and the physicians and
nurses went from among u.s. We
know the ability, skill and devotion OF
Drs. MaryS. Bradford, Emma I. Miller
and Mary ]. Smith, who are in charge
of the hospital service in Persia, and
commend them to the American peos
Pile as worthy of their confidence. In
this hour Of danger, they especially de.
serve both the financial help and the
sympathy Of the charitable and Chris
ton people of America. We mako this
brief explanation and confidently ex-
pect that the response will be prompt
and generous.

Nrw YoSx, August 20. Tho daily con-
sultation Of the local health board this
morning was shorter than usual from
the fact that they have now taken all
the precautions to guard against cholera
that they can think Of. They are re-
ceiving suggestions through the mails
in large numbers. One OF them in this
mornings batch advised tho prohibl.
tion Of the publication Of the news
papers as an effective means OF pre-
venting IN epidemic. The board Of
health is depending largely upon tho
efforts Of the health officer, DR.. jenkins,
at quarantine, to detect the disease and
keep 1t from entering the city, but this
morning the auditor of the surveyors
department in the custom house made
a decided kick against the way the
Cunard steamer Servia was inspected
yesterday afternoon. He said: "She
has on board nearly 500 cabin passen-
gers and over 500 in the steerage. She
entered quarantine at 2;3S p. m. and
was passed by DIR. Jenklns and his
assistants in thirty.eight minutes, leav-
ing for her dock at 3:16 p. m.
The Brooklyn health officials are using
every precaution to guard against
cholera in that city.
The following order 10 10 be issued
by Health Officer jenkins:
"All vessels from cholera infected
ports, or carrying eteerage passengers
from infected localities, will be subject
to quarantine or detention from two TO
five days. Passengers and their bag
gage will be transferred to Hoffman
Island, where they will receive bath,
while baggage and clothing are disln-
tected by steam.
Immediately after such transfer, sto-
rage and cargo will be disinfected.
The passenger will then be returned to
the vessel, which in the absence OF any
development Of suspicious cases, will be
allowed to proceed to her dock" This
regulation is in accordance with tele-
gram semitic the secretary Of the treas
ury requesting that the same regula-
tion at the port OF departure be en-
forced under the direction OF the
United States consul.

PARIS, August 2a.-The British and
American consuls at Havre do not re-
gard the situation as alarming. AS a
matter Of precaution, the American
consul appointed committee OF ply
sicians to inspect all outgoing Atlantic
steamers. Tho minister Of the interior
has ordered every possible facility to
be extended to the foreign consuls in
the matter OF disease.
The weather appears to have no eff
feet on the epidemic. Yesterday there
was marked change in the weather at
Havre, it being cold and windy, yet
both the cases Of cholera and the deaths
from the disease were mere numerous

ing when James ]. corbett and his
manager, William A. Brady, met there
to arrange with Dominick McCafrey,
the boxing instructor Of the Manhattan
Athletic Club, to arrange for contest
of the manly art Of self defense. Mr..
Corbett became SO enraged at the re-
marks of the Manhattan man that he
stated in most emphatic language and
menacing mien that If his would.be an
tagonist did not stop talking he would
throw him out of the window. A num-
ber of representatives Of the press were
present and Captain Van schaick, OF
the Manhattan Club, was McCattrey's
adviser.
The upshot of it all was that no
match was arranged, and the two prin-
cipals separated with a material In
crease Of the quantity OF bad blood ex-
isting between them.
So far the men agree on the result OF
the much talked Of meeting, but for the
details there is something Of diver
gence.
Mr.. McCatfrey in a conversation later
declared that Corbett had failed to
make good his proposition to stop him
in four rounds for a purse Of 5000;
that he declared was the original propo-
sition and the big un" had simply
backed down when he appeared ready
to accept the proposition for four
round "go' on the terms mentioned at
the Manhattan Athletic Club house.
Corbett said he proposed to name
the match in the place whore there was
the most money, either before any
liberal athletic club or in the Man
haitian Athletic Club house.
He said he would agree to the terms
to fight and stop his man in that time
fora puae of $1,000. But he wished
to have the decision in case he had the
best of it in four rounds whether he
stopped McCaifrey or not In other
words, he would donate 5000 to Nc
Catfrey in case he did not knock him
out in four rounds, but asked that o

Steve o o'Donnell, the master Of ceremo-

walked from his dressing quarters to
the ring, while cheer after cheer went
up. Hesprang lightly up the steps and
bowed to tho assembled multitude.
Corbett wore green atockings, white
pants and green belt.
Before he had taken his seat three
cheers were given for him. Then the
crowd in audible criticisms passed on
the Californian's condition. Indeed,
Corbett did not look as ifmuch were
the matter with him. There was a very
pretty exhibition OF boxing between
Corbett and McVay. McVay, however,
was too beefy and altogether too slow
for the star Of the evening.
Things livenad up more in the bout
between Corbett and his boxing partner,
Jim DAILY. Though DAILY is not heavy

remarkably quick and his clean science
urged the spectators up TO shouting
point. There Is no doubt that despite
his somewhat disappointing develop
ments Corbett made host OF friends
By his clever methods and his evident
splendid condition. Tho boxing bouts
with Corbett over, the crowd dispersed
to think the matter over and discuss
tho value OF Corhett's stock in New
Orleans on September.
