CREATED A PANIC. ~.
Capt. Bartenheuser, superintendent of the
Hambur American company's docks at
Hoboken, went down in a tug this morn
ing to take supplies to the detained ships.
On his return he brought with him a num-
Der Of kilograms from the passengers of the
Normannia. These had been given by
Health Officer Jenkins. They had been
written in DR.. Jenkins Office from copies
taken by himself ron the ships. DR.. Jen-
kins had taken precautions aud felt justi-
fed in sending them to Hobdken to be
transmitted. When the messenger from
the steamship company entered the West
ern Union company's ofice with the tele-
grams there was.a panic. The desk men
refused to receive the messages and two
telegraphers in the office became excited
when the matter got to their ears. The
steamship messenger insisted that the tele-
grams be received and he was forcibly
elected from the office. The messages are
at the Hoboken docks, with little. prospects
oftheir reaching their destination to-day.
Agent Schwab, ot the North German Lloyd
line, said that he had heard this morning
there were ..

This he considered a very important an
nouncement in view Of the fact that Bre-
men is not an Injected port. He imme-
diately cabled the Office to verify the re-
port. The company have an arrangement
with the American consul at Bremen to
notify the state department here at the first
outbreak. The Bremen line ships now
aloat are the Elbe, Spree, Kaiser and Al
Ter. The Kaiser is the last steamer which
brings Storage passengers. The house

pairing to fight the cholera if it should
reach this city. They will take p-~ecaution
against it at once. For seven hours each
day a physician will be in attendance,

and all drinking water used in the ex-
change will be filtered and the entire build
ing carefully cleaned. The board of health
issued an official bulletin this afternoon
declaring that no Cases Of cholera have oc-
Cured in this city and that the city was
now more exempt from contagious disease
than at any time in several years. The
death rate last week was 20. 80 per, 1000,
being the lowest death rate in this city in
any week since November, 1891. The re-

THE PRESENCE OF NIrRArIs.
The presence of nitratis at this time shows
that the nuisances found in the Croton
watershed last year have not yet been done
away with. At to'clock a tug boat, having
in tow twenty-five 'rowboats from South
Beach, passed quarantine. The principal
reason Tor their removal. it was said, was
that the health authorities were afraid
somebody may steal one or two and row
out to the pest ships. . Masters OF vessels
are giving the infected ships plenty of sea
room. They have no desire to lose their
vessefslicenses and their own and become
imprisoned in the bargain, for that is the
