MORE CHOLERA CASES.
Anxiety Because of the Fresh
Outbreak on the Bohemia.
SUFFERING AMONG THE CHILDREN.

Not a Case I'm New York for Nine Days
Hamburg's Flthiness--How the Plague
Obtained Such a Hold Upon the city
Reports from Many Infected Points
No Cholera on the Empress OF India.
QUARANTINE, Sep. 29.-The fresh out
break of cholera on the Bohemia, the last
but one of the ill-starred Hamburg ships
left in the lower bay, has caused stir
among the Health Department officials,
and the third visit to the infected vessel
and Swinburne Island, made last even
ing by DR.. Jenkins and his consultin g
bacteriologist, DR.. Sternberg, plainly tells
of the anxiety caused by the new cases.
The first news of sickness reached the
Health Officer late Monday night, and
the official report by DR.. Byron, given
out yesterday morning showed that two
children were transferred to Swinburne
Island, one, boy of s, dying two hours
after entering the hospital.
Yesterday afternoon DIR. Byron again
reported that, in answer to the flag
hoisted on the Bohemia, he had trans
ferred three more cases, all suffering
from severe symptoms of cholera. The
five cases were as follows;
Mariana Lukowska, years old.
Stanislaus Michsarich Z years old.
William Latz, 4 years old.
Johanna Milkzarich, years old.
Carl Gassman, "a years old,
OF the above, Stanislaus Michsarich
died early yesterday.
Among the Bohemia's passengers are
100 children, and the long confinement
has begun to have most serious results.
The Scandals people, now on Hoffman
Island, numbering nearly 1000, have
been IA days without case of serious
nature, and so urgent has become the
necessity for attention to the Bohemia,
that it is likely the Scandals passengers
will either be released to-day or trans
ferred to the New Hampshire.
The ease with which the disease gains
| foothold is shown by the discovery of DR..
| Walser, who CHANGED to see the new pa
| tients at the hospital soon after their ad-
mission. In the bosom of the young man,
Gassman, he found food in the shape OF
herrings and cheese which had been Sc
creted for future consumption.
1t is this difficulty of keeping food
from the Russian Jews and their utterly
filthy habits that make it almosC impossi
BILE to prevent sickness, especially when
confined on shipboard
1t is days since the Health Board re
ported case of cholera in this city. Tht
bulletin issued this morning was to the
effect that there had been no cases since
September -. Philip Mudschenck, q
years old, was taken to the hospital last
night from S66 Eleventh avenue His
case is looked upon as a suspicious one.

LONDON, Sep. 29. The Cunard Steam
ship Line, having grown tired of main
tanning the emigrants from Hamburg
who had bought tickets by way of the
line at boarding houses in Liverpool,
and seeing no early prospect of being
able to dispose Of them by transportation
to America, offered to return to the
emigrants the amount of their fares.
The majority refused to accept the Of
fer, and insisted on being conveyed to the
United States
The company then notified the keepers
Of the boarding houses in which the en-
migrants had been maintained that the
company would be no longer responsible
for their support
Thereupon the landlords turned the
emigrants out of doors The emf
grants applied to the authorities, but
the latter declined to admit the strangers
to the warehouses, rs the poorhouses in
England are called, aud the unfortunate
foreigners are wandering about the
streets the pdtice, for sanitary reasons,
not wishing to arrest them, and nobody
being willing to have anything to do
with them.

ing Lynched.
BoRDENrowN, N. j., Sep. 9S.-- Ger
man woman, named Lena Schmidt
murdered three young children, ranging
from one to three years old, yesterday
at her residence No. 4 Chestnut street,
by choking them to DEATH
One of the victims was her own son
and the other two were sons of William
Bowker, a neighbor After killing the
children the woman, who is believed to
be insane, went TO Marshal Jones and
told him that he would find three dead
bodies at her house.
She admitted the killing, but could
not give any reason for the act. Mrs.
Schmidt was locked up by the police
and the coroner and county physician
took charge of the victims
The crime has caused great excitement
here.
Lena Schmidt, the murderess, is 3S
years of age, is rather good-looking and
a brunette. She has spent some of her
time in the county Jail at Mount Holly.

the two came here together. The young
man was blond, about 30 years of age.
| The two were arrested here and COM
mitted for disorderly conduct. At first
Lena was not recognized by the local po-
lice, who were greatly excited over the
murders, but now that they have had
time to collect their thoughts they have

She is the daughter of Farmer William
| Brown, who lives six miles away from
Bordentown at country crossroads
known as Red Lion. Her character Is
described as essentially bad Late last
night she told Marshal Jones that her
son fell downstairs and blood ran from
his nose as a result. The sight of blood
she says, made her crazy and as it con-
tinued to flow she choked the child to
death to stop it. She then says that she
laid the child on the floor and called the
eldest Bowker boy, who was playing in
the front room, and strangled him. Then
to make her work complete she took the
younger child, who was playing in the
yard, carried him inside, and, when she
reached the dining room, applied her ter
rible fingers.
The grand jury is now in session al
Mount Holly, and the inquest will soon
be held. Feeling ran high last night
and it was owing to her sex that Lena
Schmidt wasn't lynched.

The Last Rites over the Body of Band
master Gilmore.
NEW York, Sep. 2S-The body of Pat
rick Sarsfeld Gilmore arrived at the
Grand Central Depot yesterday.
On the funeral tram accompanying the
body were Mrs. P. S. Gilmore and her
daughter, Minnie; the committee of three
from the Gilmore band, and three direc-
tors of the Musical Protective Associa-
tion, who met the train at Poughkeepsie.
Long before the time the train was due
crowds of friends and associates of the
dead leader had gathered at the depot.
When the train arrived, the musicians
formed in two long lines from the train
to the waiting carriages without.
Behind these lines crowding every cor
ner of the spacious depot and the street
were thousands of people who stood with
uncovered heads from the moment of the
trains arrival.
After Mrs. Gilmore and her daughter
had passed to their carriage the coffin
containing the remains of the famous
band master was taken from the car and
carried to the hearse waiting without.
As the head of the funeral train reached
the entrance to the depot the soft and
solemn notes of the "Lost Chord" filled
the vast inclosure and the music continued
until the funeral procession moved away.
The remains were driven directly tC
the late home Of the deceased where they
will remain until the funeral.
Secretary Hunt, of the Musical Union
said that Mrs. Gilmore had consented tC
military funeral to take place to-
day.

SAN Francisco, Sep. 2S.-Dr. Henry
@. Beale has fed the city, after having
been accused of no loss than 40 murders.
DR. Beale and Mrs. Mary Montrose were
arrested here few days ago for malprac-
Jice. AThe doctor lived with the woman,
and together they conducted lying-in
hospital
Many patients visited them, but finally
the suspicion of the authorities was
aroused and DIR. Beale and Mrs. Montrose
were arrested. The doctor was placed
under $4,000 bail
1t is evident he feared that he could
not trust the woman's secrecy for he for
feited his bail and departed for parts un-
known.
When pressed by the prosecution Mrs.
Montrose told yesterday an appalling
story of crime. According to her state
nent no less than 40 children were born
in her house. Not one Of them was per
mitted to live
Beale would promptly remove the
child from its mother and either chloro-
form or drown it, after which he weighted
the body aud threw it into the bay or Gre
mated it, whichever method was the
most convenient at the time.
Beale always stipulated with a mother
in prospect that she would not ask what
became of the child, leaving the impress
sion, however, upon her mind that the
infant would be quietly placed in the
care of respectable family.
Efforts are now being made to find the
remains of some of the murdered chill
dren.
Many of the women whose babies were
killed belong to respectable families. 1t
is alleged that number of them wanted
to pay Beale's bail rather than have his
case carried into court resulting in their
own exposure and disgrace.
