when [ 90 l shall certainly lay the
matter before the Board Of Health
and be guided by such orders as it
shall issue l do not Interpret the
words from any foreign port to
mean others than those infected. If
the Board should rule differently,
however, all vessels from foreign
ports will be held"
DR. Martin Regensburger, Of the
local Board Of Health, does not ac-
cept the order as applying to this or
any other Pacific port. Said he A:
The order is u good one, bat think
it only applies to Eastern ports.
There is every reason to ba careful,
but why vessels coming from Aus
tralis. Japan, China or Hawaii
should be held. [ cannot see. 1t was
evidently the intention to apply the
order only to those ports receiving
vessels from infected countries. My
firm belief is that if cholera gets to
the Pacific coast it will come by the
railroads from the Eastern cities,
and not by vessels entering here. If
the matter comes before the Board
of Health, I, as member, will GER
tainly oppose holding any vessel
coming from a non-infected port, II
a clean bill of health can be shown"
The proclamation is directed to
collectors OF customs as well as
health officers, so that If the col
]ector should construe the proclama-
tion as forbidding him to allow any
vessel to enter, that would effectually
prevent the landing or discharging
of cargoes within the specified time,
even though the health officers should
see no reason for enforcing quaran-
tine in any particular case.

A True Prediction.
SAN FRANCIsco, September John
Haskell was fatally injured by ca
BILE Car at Third and Howard streets
last night. There is a peculiar coin
cidence in connection with the acci-
dent. Five weeks ago Haskell's
brother George, while on drunken
spree in company with his father,
fell down flight of stairs and broke
his neck. What makes the coinci
dence seem peculiar is that the Has
kells were the principal witnesses
against John McNulty, now under
sentence Of death for the murder Of
Collins. When McNulty was con-
victed he cursed the Haskells, who,
he said, had perjured themselves,
aud now McNulty claims that the
death Of the two haskells are verif-
cations Of his prediction that the
Haskels would die violent deaths be-
fore he, McNulty, would die on the
scaftold.
Homestead Leaders Held.
PITTsBURG, September Hugh
O'Donnell, David Lynch, William t.
Robert, George W. Sarver and Will
liam McConeghan, all prominent
members Of the Homestead advisory
committee, had hearing here this
afternoon on the charge preferred
by Secretary Lovejoy of the Car
negie Company of conspiracy. Their
attorney raised point that under
the act of 1891 the defendants could
not be convicted of conspiracy for
acts done in the capacity of labor
organization. The Commonwealth
said it would show that the acts
charged were committed in the
organization, but were not covered
by the act quoted
a Thing of the Past.
PITTsBURG, Pa.), August 31.-H.

stead Mill to-day said: Il am fully

cials here have been running things.
So far as the company is concerned
the strike is thing Of the past"

tility between the police and the
National Guard manifested while the
