of Terror.
They Cry Out Against Being
Confined With Those Dy-
ing Of Cholera.
Six Additional Deaths Re-
ported on the Rugia, Mo-
ravia and Normannia.
Precautions Being Taken by
Officials Of Several Amer

NEW YORK, Sept. 4.-Dr. Jenkins, ac-
eompanied by Quarantine Commissioner
Allen and Prof. Biggs, went to lower
quarantine this morning, and on his re-
turn it was learned that the cholera had
claimed a number of victims on the iu-
fected steamers during the day. The
startling fact was made public that
three deaths had occurred on board of
the NOrmannia, two OIL the Moravia
and one on the Rugia. All the dead
were taken to Swinburne island and
cremated. 1t was also ascertained that
six eases of the disease had been sent to
Swinburne island today. The panic
among them is described by eye-wit-
nesses as something frightful. They
cried out against being confined in
pest ship, and the ladies on board of
the vessel were in state Of
the greatest terror. The commits
Sioners describe the terror prevailing
among the passengers as of a heart
rending character. There was some
doubt among the cabin passengers as to
the presence of the dread disease on
board of the steamer, but the deaths

Terror TO the Bravest
hearts on board of the infected vessel,
and ali now fully recognize that the
grim specter of cholera IS really in their
midst. Tie mails from the Normannla,
which were brought up to the postotfice
late last night, have been distributed,
and that for inland points sent on its
way. The postoffice officials say the
mail matter was thoroughly dlSinfected
before being brought up to the city.

agent holding up coach. These were
lies, and they were among the meaneSt
and most irritating. most painful and
most hurtful lies i have ever had to
endure. President Harrison. like all
men in power, has a great number of
fool friends more or less close to him.
These creatures are inseparable from
high political station. Some are very
artful, as we'll as silly. and from whom
some quality of malice is not wanting.
But he has. too, a large number
of friends closely attached to
him.. proud of him, Jealous in
his interest, men who profoundly
admire him and profoundly love the
party he leads. They probably told the
president that | was not as bad as these
imaginative people had painted me, but
that | was furnished with that proper
measure of self-respect which ought to
be the equipment of an American citi-
zen. They probably said, too, that |
loved the Republican party good deal
more than | disliked him, and perhaps
that my prejudiceS against him. like
those he entertained against me, were
due in a large measure to misappre-
henSIon. | suppose they said these
things and probably others even more
kind, If less true. At all events it was
indicated to me that the president

what They Talked About
"Won't you give me some idea of the
Conversations l asked.
1T was not talk on petty personal
subjects" the senator replied. "The
presidents remarks were those of a
broad minded, fair-minded, sensible
man, who had the right view of the dig
nifty of his Office. view that the Amer
lean people admire and sustain. Much
was said of his forthcoming letter OF
acceptance, and of the manner and
methods in which he proposed to treat
the issues between the parties. We
went over the more important and pub.
lie questions, such as the tariff and fair
elections, finance, and the manner in
which our principles as to those
questions should be placed and
kept before the people. We talked Of
New Y York and the condition of the Re-
publican party here; of what was neces-
Sary to bring out its full strength and
to render it most effective Oh election
day."
"Will your friends throughout the
state support the national ticket as
heartily as you will?" | inquired.
"Of course they WILL" the senator re-
piled. my friends are Republicans.
They are the sort OF Republicans who
can be depended upon for hard and
steady work. They are always ready to
fight night and day. They will be found
in this campaign, as they always have
been found, doing their full duty"
