ANTIGUA NEWS.
From the antigua Qdsorper.)


We are very glad to learn that q very
powerful Company has been formed for the
purpose Of making investments in tho West
Indies,
The Company is "the West Indian Land
Mortgage, Insurance and Investment Co.
limited y with a capital of $500, 000.
The chief object OF this Company Kill be
to advance money on real Estate and other
desirable securities in the British West
Indies.
1t is not intended that the Company
should work in competition either with the
Colonial Bank or the West Indian mer-
chants. 1t will indeed work With them.
The Colonial Bank, it il we'll known, arc
precluded by their charter from making
advances by way of mortgage, and the bulk
OF West Indian merchants prefer to cOnfino
their operations to the more legitimate work
OF advancing against crops and consign-
mentS.
At the present moment, however valuable
WI. property may be. it is almost practi-
cally impossible to- obtain loans ON mort.
gage except ut very high RACES.
While to obtain advances for Sn0h pur-
poses as the development Oh land tortibre
or fruit industry, where TIA outlay must
extend over some years with but little or
no returns, is absolutely 'mpraoticable>
Tie company we understand will make IL
special feature OF such advances
The Comp thy will alSp unlert IKE the
guaranteeing Of Insurance. Of securities for
those who may be called on to furnish them
either by the Governments or amy other
body.
Tn Company also purposes to otfrr SINH.
lar facilities to shippers Of produce from
England as are gwen by those who ship TO
China, India and Australia and advances
will be made in England against approved
documents to u liberal amount.
There are several other inltnrcS all of
which will be to the advantage OF these is
lands and which our traders will be ahlc 10
learn before long from our advertising co
lumnS.
The Company is most inhuontialIy sup
ported and its directors consist OF Il certain
number OF gentlemen whose standing IN
Great Britain is SO high as 10 insure the
success OF any Company with which they
are connected rs we'll as certain gentlemen
Intimately connected with the require

these islands by the Hon. J. II. II. Berkeley.
We understand that one Of the objects of this

The Governor of Panama is taking special
interest in the Worlds Fair, and at the soli-
citation of Willard F.. Tirsdel. Esq. the olioi-
al representative of the Exposition, who
called upon him in person, has arranged to
appoint three Commissioners from that State

also probable that the Governor will attend
the Fair, and see that everything is done that
is possible to make the display Of his State a
creditable one.
There is in Colon a marble slab, bearing II
baS-rclief representing the Landing Of
Columbus, which belongs to the State Of
Panama. It is a most beautiful piece Of
carving, and was presented to the State by
the Empress Josephine, together with a
colossal bronze statue of Columbus, in honor
of the Discoverer, after whom the city of
Colon was named. Some years ago it was
taken from its proper resting-place and placed
as AN ornament in the side of a fountain near
the Residence of De Lesseps, but Commission
Ell Tisdol has secured it as an exhibit for the
Exposition. Though strictly speaking it can
hardly be placed in the category of antiqui-
ties, it will form a most interesting object in
the Columbian Collection hich will be
displayed at Chicago.

Asiatio Cholera Sure.

LONDON, Sept. 1.-The Russian emil
grants who were stricken with cholera
Tuesday, just after they were about to
depart to the United States, have been
isolated at Parkhill hospital. The place
is excellently situated for complete iso-
lation, the grounds about the hospital
being fifteen acres in extent, and is
guarded against intrusion.
The attending physicians state that
there is now no doubt whatever that the
disease with which these three Russians
are afflicted is Asiatic cholera, of the
same type as that which is raging in
Portia and the regions of Russia from
which the enigrants came.
While it is believed that no other emf
grants are affected, the greatest anxiety
is felt, and the most rigid precautions
are being taken. The baggage Of all
emigrants destined for America has
been fumigated in the presence OF the
american consul and the sanitary Off
GERS of Liverpool. The consul having
expressed himself satisfied with the dil.
infection, the consular seal was affixed
to the baggage thus treated, and this
was made necessarily preliminary be-
fore taking the baggage on board.
The emigrants were also inspected,
and those who appeared to be in any
thing like poor health were rejected.
The cleanliness and healthy appearance
of the Scandinavian emigrants evoked
praise from the inspecting officers. The
most Objectionable emigrants were those
from southeastern Europe, although
many of those had evidently prepared
for the ordeal by washing themselves.
One of the suspected cases of cholera at
lslington has proved fatal.
The members of the crew OF the
steamship Corona, from Hamburg, who
are sick with SUPPOSED cholera, are i'm
proving
The sanitary authorities continue to
exert the utmost precaution both in
London and other British ports against
the cholera and there is strong public
feeling in favor of excluding all vessels
from the infected places of the CONT
nent and Of putting a stop for the pres
ent of the transit across Great Britain
of continental emigrants destined for
America,

GAINESVILLE, o., Sept. AT an

attempted the life of Lieutenant Evans
of the police force. The lieutenant and
two other officers had arrested two
crooks near the Baltimore and Ohio rail
way depot. One Of them, while they
were waiting for the patrol, slipped a
large dirk-knife from his pocket and
drew back to strike the lieutenant.
Officer Clark noticed the move just in
time and struck his hand with mace,
knocking the knife known. Burglar
tools were found on the men and they
are believed to be notorious crooks. +
