NEW YORK, September To-day is
brighter, more frosty, and In every way
more bracing than any day since the first
cholera ship made this port. This evil
dence that we have the weather on our
side in combating the invading scourge,
has sent New York's spirits up, though II
is reported that a few more cases of sick
ness have been discovered at quarantine.
The main question, outside OF actual COM
bat with the grim enemy, troubling the
health authorities to-day, seems 70 be the
disposition TO be made Of the Normannia's
saloon passengers, in whose favor the tide
Of popular sympathy now appears TO be
turning. They have petitioned the people
OF New York 10 take some action which
will deliver them from their floating
prison, and there seems TO be little doubt
that their prayers will be answered.

her way up.
General Passenger Agent Boas, OF the
Hamburg American Steamship Company,
said to-day that he had conference with
DR.. Jenkins about transferring the caoin
passengers Of the Normannia TO some other
vessel.
1t was found impossible TO get any ves-

that the old New Hampshire, which has
been offered by the Navy Department, was
not large enough and he thought 1t could
net be used.
