FRANCE MAY DESERT THE FAIR.
A Possibility That She win Make n
Exhibits ut Chicago.

A Possibility That She win Make No
Exhibits ut Chicago.
CHICAGO, Sept. s.--After making an APP
preparation of $500, 900 for the Worlds fair
and completing all plans for the greatest
exhibit of amy foreign nation, the gov
eminent of France may withdraw entirely
from the Columbian exposition. Cable
grams were received several days ago an
nouncing that unless certain conditions
We're granted TO French exhibitors by Sept
10 France would suspend all preparations
for the fair, surrender the space assigned to
her exhibitors and cancel the official accept
ance of President Harrison's invitation to
take part in the fair.
Briefly stated, France asked for a certain
amount Of space in each Of the big build
ings; the amount is what experts considered
necessary to make a proper showing of the
country's resources and products; rather
than accept a smaller area and have an in
ferior show France viii make no show at
all
All the correspondence in the case was
sent to the all powerful council Of admins
tration in the hope that a way would be
found to accommodate France The c0un-
ell took no action on the matter but the
executive committee of the local board
complicated the situation by refusing to put
up a separate building for the department
of liberal ants. Had this been done the en-.
tire educational display could have been
moved from the manufacturers building
and more space secured for France where
1t is most needed.

FIGHTING THE SCOURGE
Vigilant Health officials Bar
Dread Cholera's Progress.
TEN NEW CASES IN NEW YORK BAY

But Not Case as Yet Appears in the
Threatened City-Chauncey Depew in
Quarantine with other distinguished
Passengers-Hamburg a Moreuo.
NEW YORK, Sept s.-The black pail Of
cholera hanging over the waters OF New
York bay appears TO be lifting Asia's
plague seems TO be yielding to the efforts Of
quarantine to wipe il out at the harbor enc
trance to this city. Death did not claim a
victim among the unfortunates ON the
steamships anchored at the lower quaran-
tine station. Neither was there a death
among the patients in the hospitals on
Swinburne island. The sunlight OF hope
which on Wednesday was family seen be-
hind the cloud of sorrow now seems to have
fairly broken its way through
But while there wero no deaths there
were new cases, ten Of them. The disease,
however, has not yet touched the cabin
passengers. Two Of those stricken We're
steerage passengers on the Rugia. The
other eight were members Of the Norman
nia's crew. An unfortunate lot they seem
to be, for the cholera has stricken many Of
them.
The problem Of how to separate the
healthy passengers, who had been exposed
. to no reasonable chance of infection, from
those who had been in serious risk and
among whom the dread plague might he
lurking, was the most serious question So
serious was IL that Secretary of tho Navy
Tracy came to the city and joined secre-
tary Of the Treasury Foster and ex-Surgeon
General Hamilton in considering this ques-
ton
Secretary Tracy and Secretary Foster
joined most heartily with the health au-
thOrties Of the state and city in graphing
with this problem, the Importance of which
grows with the arrival of every vessel.
Secretary Tracy offered on behalf Of the
navy department. the use of the old frigate
New Hampshire for the reception OF the
cabin passengers on the Normannia.
All Treated Alike.
DR.. Jenkins has asked for the use Of Fire
island, ana he has been allowed the use Of
Sandy Hook. Tents can be erected there
and Geographic communication with the
city viii be both safe and constant Some
of the sound boats now idle may also be
utilized
The equality Of all American citizens of
whatever rank or wealth before the law
was again shown when the City of New
York steamed INTO the lower bay, having on
board DR.. Chauncey NJ. Depew, the wife
and daughter of Secretary of the Treasury
Foster and the daughter OF Secretary of
Agriculture Rusk
With all the other passengers Of the City
Of New York, they viii be detained until
all danger is past That, however, may not
be for more than day, as.the City Of New
York was thoroughly fumigated and disin-
fected before leaving Liverpool and there
have been no serious cnses of illness GA
board Other large steamships arriving were
the Waesland and Spree.
The lower bay is now so crowded with
the detained ocean liners that navigation Is
becoming difficult II not dangerous. Tht
terrors of possible collision are added to the
terrors of the present plague

Hundreds of Bodies Unburied and the
Disease Spreads in tho suburbs.
HAMBURG, Sept. Is. There have been ono
fresh cases i'm the city. The deaths num-
Der 3O2. The disease has gained virulence
in the suburbs. AT Barmbeck the mortal
ity is five cases in seven In Wmterbude,
near the Ohisdorf cemetery, where the
number of cases had decreased steadily up
10 yesterday, there has been a fresh out
break and whole families are dying after a
few hours illness.
This outbreak is supposed TO have been
due to the carelessness with which burias
have been made in the cemetery recently.
Hundreds of bodies have been placed at in
sufficient depth under ground, so that a
few days of rain and sun have suficed to
bring ont the germs of the disease and
spread them ON all sides.
Scores of funerals from the hospitals pass
through the adjacent district daily, and
often twenty or thirty dead wagons have
remained blocked at the entrance.
The report given out by tine hospitals yes.
ter6ay that their dead had been buried
turns out 60 be false. Today there have
been GO huiials, or l3l more than yester
day and 100 more than on the worst pro
vious days since the plague came. Never
theless, 200 bodies are still unburied. Hall
Of these are in the hospitals, which are s,
crowded with the dead that their accom-
modatious for the IN are seriously curtailed
Most of the other half are in the district
near the Ohlsdorf cemetery.
The president OF the board Of health ha.
been dismissed from office This was don,
in partial Difference topublc opinion, whicl
has held him responsible largely for the neg
lect which characterized the boards con
duct during the early stage Of the plagu,
aud for the falschoods with which it la!
tried to minimize its culpability.
