THE wYoMING's PASSENGERS.
| NEW YORK, Sept. 17.--The second-cabin
passengers of the Guion line steamer
| Wyoming. who have been held in quaran-
I tine since Sept. O. have Issued an appeal TO
the public protesting against what they
| call their unjustifi4bie detention In
quarantine. The appeal says that the ship
had bill of good health upon arrival ana
that during the passage there was only one
death, that of AN infant, which had been
Sickly ever since its birth: that the fuIn1-
CATION, resulting IN damp berths, caused
the sickness OF two children, who had
before been in perfect health; and necessi-
tated their removal: that the mother OF
the children was prostrated by the re-
moval of her children and that she became
unconscious and had to be removed from
the vessel; that since that time no one on
board had been i'll; that their further de-
tention is an outrage, and demanding
their immediate release.
a similar appeal from the steerage
passengers is made public. 1t says that
the further detention of the steerage
passengers is simply slow murder; that
the steerage passengers are not now and
never have been infected with contagious
disease, and that they demand their re-
lease as an act of justice, for which this
great republic has hitherto been
celebrated.

begun blockade running. To pass Detroit
without proper certificates is impossible,

them.

officer has ordered quarantine inspection
at all points where railroads enter Texas,
and today gave out that passengers for
Texas will save trouble by securing certi-

ing. through his deputy, On the Baltimore

THE HAMBURG EPIDEMIC.
BERLIN, Sept. 1.-THE residents of
Hamburg feel very sore over the lack of
sympathy and the abundance of hostile
feeling with which they have been treated
by most of the German authorities and the
press and people during the present tron-
bles The leading Hamburg papers sdvo-
cate a.commercial boycott of the towns
and watering places which refused an asy-
lum to the residents who have fled from
Hamburg during the epidemic. Many OF
the great Hamburg hotels, which were do

out of the plague, are now closed. This
is an index of the collapse of general busi-
ness sCommercial agents, instead of trans
acting business through Hamburg, as they
did before the epidemic, now deal through
Bremen or Stettin. The current Of trade
is thus diverted, and it will be long before
it resumes its former course.
The prompt action of Chancellor Won
Caprivl in appointing an imperial health |
commission tor the whole Ebe territory,
and their thorough work, have done much |
to establish feeling of security among |
the masses. Since the panicky feeling has
somewhat ahated more humane sentl-
ment toward the people of Hamburg Is
becoming apparent. Public subscription
lists for the relief Of the cholera sufferers
in Hamburg have been opened in Berlin.
