THE CHOLERA
News From the Plague Ships
in New York HarbOr.
Fearful Ravages Of the Pestilence
in Europe.

According to the daily bulletins Of the
Board of health, New York City remained
free from the cholera scourge that
found such comfortable lodging place in
the three pest-shlps lying in the Lower Bay.
The last bulletins issued by the Board OF
Health told Of condition OF affairs in
the city that is far different from that on
the Normannia and Rugia, and on those two
desolate spots, Swinburne and Hoffman
Islands
The plague is spreading there, but conso-
lation can be derived from the confident
prediction Of DR.. Jenkins that the pestlence
will not reach the city. He firmly believes
where it is now running riot, and where the
terror-stricken cabin passengers of the
Normaunia were kept like rats in q cage.
On the day that the bulletin just men,
toned was issued there were ten new cases,
but no deaths. That last statement Of
fact leaves slight ground for con-
graduation, OF those ten who go
to make up the long, list of vic
TINS, ninety per cent. at least will go the
way Of those whose bodies have been re-
duced to ashes in the Swineburne Island cre-
matories within the past fourteen days.
The pest.ship Normannia, whose name is
only to be mentioned nov in connection
with cholera, suffering and death, contrib
uted eight cases, and the Rugla,
which was kept up with her sister ship in
the race OF death, haniei over two to the
verworked physicians who are fighting the
dread disease. They in turn handed them
over to DR.. Byron on Swinburne Island.
Since the three cholera ships arrived there
have been thirty-one new cases and eight
deaths from the pest in the Port OF New
York.
President Harrison gave orders to turn
over part of Sandy Hook and give 500 tents
for the use OF the cabin passengers from the
Normannia.
The City of New York, with Chauncey
Depew and other well-Snown Americans Oh
board, besides several other steamers, ar
rived with no trace of the disease.
Special cables report all the steamers leav-
ing England crowded with Americans.
Double prices are being paid for bsrths, and
on some vessels new cabins have been built
on the decks.
A GUARD line has been established by the
Federal authorities along the Canadian
border. Ali the passengers by rail or boat
will be carefully examined. -,
The lower bay was so crowded with
the detained ocean liners that navigation
became difficult, II not dangerous, Inc
terrors Of possible collision were added TO
the terrors of the present plague.
There were daily additions to the fleet of
steamships idly but anxiously rocking at
anchor In the waters Of the bay. The
problem, of how to separate the healthy pas
sengers who had been exposed to no reason
able chance of infection from those who
had been in serious risk and among whom
the dread plague might be lurking, was the
most serious question. 80 serious was IL
that Secretary Of the Navy Tracy went to
New York and Joined Secretary of the
Treasury Foster and ex-Surgeon-Genera
Hamilton in considering this question.

Cholera at Hamburg.

DR.. Veuz, of Hamburg, gives a graphic
description Of the sad condition OF the city.
The old town, he says, is a collection of
dirty, sitting, crowded caarnel houses. The
Alter Juugferstieg is desolate, the Alster
pavilion deserted. There are few tram cars,
and they are almcss empty. The whole city
is III dreary and disneartening contrast to
what it was. The tree lined Sp:elbudenplatz
is untreouented, and an oppressive stiffness
bangs over it. The cafes ara empty.

rant wnere formerly 2o1J persons ate daily,
told the Physician the other day that eight
cen customers had been there up to = D. IN.

cupants of houses. he says, often run out in
the street and beseech passing policemen to
send ambuances to remove patients, but the
police can seldom accede to their appeals, as
the ambulance service is quite inadequate to
the demands upon it,
At night, DR.. Veuz says, the streets are
completely deserted by pedestrians, al
though ambulances, dead wagons and
hearses can be heard passing almost coz
stantly. The statistics published by the
authorities. DR.. Veuz says, are utterly
worthless. On one dav the nnmbar ot
