Hamburg, had twenty-five deaths on
board during tho passage. The ships
surgeon called the disease cholorine,
but that is only another name for the
dreaded Asiatic cholera. Dr. jenkins
said the results wero serious, and he
was fearful that more deaths would
follow.

FRICK AT THE MILL.

easy-A Piece of News from Scotland.
HOMESTEAD, Pa, August Sl.-H. @.
Frick, chairman of the Carnegie Steel
Company, Limited. visited the steel
works this morning and spent several
hours inspecting the various depart
ments. He was apparently satisfied
with the progress made toward operat-
ing the plant. The advent OF Mr.. Frick
caused sensation in Homestead, be-
cause OF rumor that Superintendent
Dillon, at the Thirty-third street mill,
had been ordered to send for the old
men and Mr.. Frick came up to have the
mill here shut down. This was of
course denied at the company Offices.
Members OF the advisory committee
do not believe that the charge OF con-
spiracy against them will be taken into
court, but that it will be dismissed by
Alderman McMaster at the hearing to-
morrow.
Hugh Ross left this afternoon for
Pittsburgh to surrender himself and
give bail on the conspiracy charge.
He stated that he has seventeen addi-
tionaI indictments against the Carnegie
officials, several being in the United
States courts, which he intends push
ing, further that he has received let
ter from his former home, ten miles
from Cluney Castle, Scotland, which
contained the following: "The authors
ties here have much difficulty in pre-
venting the young men from marching
over the hills to Cluney Castle and
make a fricassee of Andrew Carnegie"
The advisory committee is not divld-
ed by dissensions as reported. The
members arc all working harmoniously

Mr.. Whitelaw Reid drove over from his

ENGLAND's DANGER.

Tho Epidemic May Get Foothoid--Crimi
nal CaroIOssnoss of tho Quarantine ON
eials-The Country Almost Certain te
Experience tho Plague.
LONDON, Aug. 4l.-There is no deny
ing the fact that the people OF England
generally are beginning to be nervously
approhensive that despite the quaran
tine regulations OF the various ports
the country is doomed to undergo ano'
ther siege OF cholera plague. That the
quarantine regulations at present ell
forced does not prevent theintroduction
OF cholera has been abundantly proved,
and many persons claim that the only
eflectual way to keep the disease at bay
is to absolutely prohibit all intercourse
with the injected ports abroad. Oh
course this would entail an immense
money loss and considerable suffering,
but it is claimed that on occasions like
the present tho question OF financial
loss is OF little consequence, and that
the question of preserving the lives OF
the people OF Great Britain is OF para
mount importance.
A large proportion OF tho people, not
only in England, but elsewhere, believe
that the approaching autumn with its
cool weather and frosts will check if
not eradicate tho disease should it be-
come epidemic, but high authority
was pointed out that this belief is er-
roneous. Prof. j. o. Atllick, NJ. D.,
medical examiner ut the University OF
Edinburgh, has declared in an article
on cholera written by him that in gem
eral high temperature favors the devel.
opment Of the disease, but that some OF
the most severe epidemics known have
ragged with the greatest fury in winter.
This being the case, it will be seen that
there can be no relaxation OF the quar-
antinc and sanitary regulations for q
considerable time to come.
THE DISEASE AT DOVER.
The disease has now appeared at
Dover, one OF the chief ports of commu-
nication between England and the con-
tinent, and which has continued inter
course by steamboats, with Calais and
Boulogne, France. Three persons have
been attacked with q choleric disorder
at Dover, and one OF them has died. 1t
is not positively asserted that the dis
ease is Asiatic cholera, but the presump-
ton is that it is.
There is deep indignation felt at the
health authorities for permitting the
passengers to land on Monday last
from the steamer Peregrino, from Ham
burg. These passengers were carefully
examined and as no symptoms OF chol-
era we're shown they were allowed to
90 ashore, with the result that they
have introduced the disease into one OF
the most densely populated quarters OF
London. The dangerous character OF
tho disease and the inetFiciency of an
examination to show whether or not
people from infected ports carry the in
lection with them is shown in this case.
These dispatches announced yester-
day that two cases of the disease ap-
peared yesterday in the city road, the
sufferers being passengers from the
Peregrino. This morning one OF the
patients, a German, died, and now his
wife and child have been seized with
the disease. As before said, the dis
trict into which the infection has been
carried is filed with an immense popu-
lntinn

NEw YoRK, August Sl.-The Asiatic
cholera reached the port of New York
on board the steamship Moravia to-day,
Twenty-Five deaths occurred during the
ten days sho was on tho ocean. Two
patients, both adults, are recovering
from tho disease on board shore. Al
though she arrived last night, the
Moravia was not sent from the upper
to lower quarantine with the yellow
flag flying until almost noon to-day.
She is now there, and with her pas;
sengers will not be released from the
ewes OF the health authorities until
every known means is employed in
stamping out the dreaded plague. DR..
jenkins is hopeful that he will be able
to keep the cholera away from the city
OF New York. Tonight he is u very
much worried man.
lie has ordered the transfer OF the
Moravia's passengers to Hoffman island
and will not only make personal ex-
animation of tho disease as 1t Is aboard
the ship, but he will also confer with
the health authorities OF this city and
consider ways and means to keep it
from entering the city. More vessels
will arrive from Hamburg this week.
1t is probable that further deaths will
be reported. The situation is serious.
Unless all immigration from infected
ports is stopped, it is not believed that
this country is safe. and it is believed
now that this step will be taken.
EXTRA PRECAUTIONS.
President Wilson OF the health board,
to-day remarked that he was not sur
prised that the cholera had arrived and
that the city officials were prepared to
fight it. The island to which the pa
tients will be sent has not yet been
made public, although agreed'upon by
the health board. AS to the danger OF
the infection OF the Croton water he
said that the nuisances along the water
shed had been abated as much as possi-
BILE, and the only thing that could be
done now was TO remove the houses
along the banks OF the river, but as
there were $4,000 Of them he did not
think the scheme practicable.
The board to-day issued circular to
all railways, ferries, steamboat offices,
factories, etc, where large number OF
people are, ordering that adjoining
waiting rooms or in the factories there
should be set aside an air tight room.
These will be temporary places Of isola-
ton, should cases OF cholera suddenly
develop. Closets, etc., are to be in.
spected daily. The board has also fitted
up dust proof" room, where bactero-
logical examinations will be made. It
is SUPPOSED cholera discharge will be
cultivated until the presence or absence
Of tho germs is made positive. All dis
charges sent by the inspectors to the
board will be examined in this room.
Tho saloon passengers OF tho steam
ship Tentonic have been discharged
from quarantine. Transfer boats
brought them to the city.
IArER-AslArIc CHOLERA.
There is now no doubt that the
twenty-five persons who died on the
steamship Moravia, which arrived hero
Tuesday night from Hamburg, died
from tho dreaded disease, Asiatic chol-
era. The health officer OF the port OF
New York, DR.. jenkins, practically
made that admission tonight when he
returned to quarantine, after having
spent the afternoon on board tho
plague.stricken vessel.

A Hundred and Fifty thousand Have Died
of the Cholera.

LONDON, August 3l.-Tho Times St.
Petersburg correspondent telegraphs
that the cholera is subsiding at Mini
Novgorod, and has quito ceased at Koz-
loiE. The disease seems to bo steadily
on the increase, however, in st. Peters
burg. The official statistics show that
the mortality from the cholera has
been greatest in the Caucasus and the
country OF the Don Cossacks. Up to
the 22d OF August the total number who
died throughout the Russian empire is
given at lO7,647, but owing to the
known incompleteness OF the official
statistics the real number may safely be
reckoned as high rs 10000.
