LONDON, Sept. 1o.-It is learned that
cholera has again made its appearance in
Teheran, and that the disease has as
sumed an epidemic FORM
A telegram has been received here by
the agent of the Associated Press from the
Liverpool Office of the Guion line, stating
that in consequence Of President Harri-
sons circular no emigrants will be taken
after the sailing of the steamer Nevada
on Wednesday next. Storage passengers
by the steamer engaged passage months
ago. The Undergraduates Packet
Company has telegraphed TO the agent OF
the Associated Press in this city, declar-
ing that his company has entirely stopped
steerage passenger business. The
steamers Bohemia; which sailed from
Hamburg September 5, and the Polaria,
which sailed from the same port Septem-
Der 6, are now the only vessels of the COM
pany on the way to the United States with
steerage passengers. Up to noon today
the steamship companies had received no
notification that vessels carrying emf
grants are likely to be refused entry into
the United States. The officials of the
Cunard Company telegraph to the London
agent of the Associated Press that they do
not think the president could make such
an order, but that II would only be made
by states individually.
PARIS. Sept. 10.-Sixty-nine additional
cases of cholera occurred yesterday, and
forty-four deaths.
BERLIN. Sept. I0--The Berlin authorities
consider that the foreign press exaggerates
the condition of affairs in Hamburg. The
cholera is bad enough in the poorer and
older quarters of the city, but the middle
and upper class of residents would not
know Of the existence of the epidemic, ex-
cept for Information cleaned through
the newspapers. If Hamburg were pest
polluted throughout its bounds, the
imperial board Of health would have as
scented to the suggestions of alarmists to
isolate the city and suburbs ana in
terdict all communication with them.
The ministers, however, took the special
advice of Prof Virchow, Prof.
Koch and other authorities, and arrived
at the conclusion that rigorous system
of surveillance would be sufficient pro-
lection. A large number of fugitive fami-
lies from Hamburg have now sought
shelter at places in Mecklenburg-
Schwerin, and q case Is almost unknown
among them.
Not q single case requiring cremation
has occurred here since the ministers as
scented to cremation. As matter of fact,
Berlin is remarkably healthy. Among
tho public here the scare has
utterly vanished. Even the hotels have
ceased to reject guests from Hamburg. A
panicky feeling. however, continues to
prevail In the rural districts. Business re-
ports from Hamburg grow worse. 1t is
estimated that the financial and CONNER
cial losses there have reached . total of
200 000, 600 marks.
ST.. PETERSBURG, Sept 1o.-Again the
hope that cholera had spent its strength
has been dashed to the ground. Wednes-
days returns for the empire. made public
and 027 deaths a. compared with the
previous day.
HAMBURG, Sept 10.-If any reliance
whatever Is to be placed upon official sta
tistics the cholera continues to abate
here. Yesterday 1S2 new cases were re-
ported, decrease of Eli as COM
pared with the previous day. The deaths
yesterday were placed at 10 as against
~tf ioF Anursuny. 1he oatiy TePoiss, ho"-
ever, continue to be badly mixed up, as is
evidenced by a supplementary report
issued today, giving 12S new cases and
forty-one deaths that occurred prior to
yesterday and were not incorporated in
the prior returns.
