A Promising Situation.

New York Daily Investigator
Good Judges say that one Of the next To-
calities to achieve distinction by jumping
from substantial town to a thriving me.
tropolis in few years will be the city Of
Superior, Wisconsin, and this, too, without
the effort and struggle through which in
terror towns have passed while etfecting
the same result Untila year or two ago
the average man did not stop to think that
Superior as q monopoist OF the water and
rail termini at one end OF the lakes is in the
same position as Buffalo at tho other end.
Figures are embarrassing unless given
briefly, but comparisons arc always impor-
tant. This little Superior, credited by its
last census with only %, 900 people, handled
more coal last year than did Chicago; OF
grain, 1t shipped nineteen million bushels
Of -four, sixteen hundred thousand barrels
of wool, four million pounds; OF merchan.
disc to the value of thirteen million dol.
lars. or all lake cities this business was
second only to Chicago in magnitude.
There is an economical reason for this con-
dition of things 1t is that the rail rate on
freight sent west Of Lake Michigan Is one
cent per ton per mile, while the water rate
is one-tenth of one cent per ton per mile
This position at the extreme western end OF
Lake Superior is what gives the city of Su-
perior its prestige, and is making it grow
faster than Chicago ever did. Besides one
hundred and one smaller industrial con.
Germs, Superior has located twenty eight
large manufacturing enterprises in the past
eighteen months, including the American
| Steel Barge Company, the builders OF the
famous "whalebaclx" vessel, which is revo
lutionizing the lake and ocean freight car
rying trade. The twenty eight institution:
above mentioned, include iron and stee
plants, flour mills, stove foundries, wager
factories, pump makers, shipbnildcrs ant
saw and single mills The most conserva
tive business men in the Northwest believe
that Superior will grow faster in the mex
ten years than any other city In that pros
porous section of the country, and many o.
them claim that Chicago, St Paul, Mime
apolis and Milwaukee have never seen thu
rapid growth that will como to the head o.
the great chain Of lakes and the city of Su
pcrior.

The St. Petersburg correspondent Of The
Times writes:-The present epidemic origina-
ted in India, according to classical precedent.
For the exceptional rapidity with which it
reached Europe we have primarily to thank
tho Transcaspian Railway. The annual fair
at Hurdwer, in North West India, which takes
place in March, formed the starting point.
This gathering which is partly religious and
partly commercial, brings together a vary
ing but large number Of natives from all parts,
sndit has caused widespread epidemics on
several previous occasions. This year cholera
broke out there on the 22nd of March, and in
consequence the fair was closed by order OF
the 25th. A particularly unfavourable DIR
oumstance was the low, almost stagnant, state
Of the river Ganges, in which the pilgrims
battle. The more i'll they are the more ASST

are even placed in it to die. After the closing
of the fair departing visitors carried the dis

travelled by way of Afghanistan and Persia,

THE CHOLERA.
Times, September 23rd)

There is little that il new to report in
regard to the cholera this week. The disease
does not seriously spread, nor is it yet stamp
cd out in it's continental centres.
At Hamburg 2II new cases of infection
and 100 deaths we're registered on the Goth
inst. OF these 81 and 36 respectively belong
ed to earlier dates, leaving a net total Of 149
attacks and 81 deaths for that date.
The cases of infection published by the
authorities during the four weeks from Au-
gust 20 to the 18th inst. numbered 1868
Of which 6, 764 ended fatally. The figures were
distributed as follows August 20-27, 3,779
attacked and 1873 deaths August 70 to
September 3, 6,395 and 800; September 40
1871 and 800; September lI-l7, 2,l20 and
877.
Several fresh cases of Asiatio cholera are
reported from the Moabit Hospital. The
patients are boatmen and fishermen, and the
disease appears to have been contracted by
using the water of the Berlin canals and
river, which are clearly now contaminated
in a very high degree. The public are being
warned against using water from the Spree,
the Havel, the Elbe, and all streams and
canals connected with them, as there is rea-
son to, believe they are saturated with cholera
germs. The water is exceptionally low, and
long reaches of shiny mud obtrude themselves
most Extensively.
The cholera appears to be fast on the wane
in st. Petersburg and several other places in
Russia. On the other hand, in some parts,
chiefly rural districts. it is still unaccounta-
bly, severe, and perhaps worse than ever.
In general the mortality of the provinces has
been about one-third Of the number of
seizures, but in VOronozh 379 persons have
died out of 591 in Erivan, l76 out of 1876, all
within "a hours.
A letter from Bucharest says that consider
able indignation has been caused by the cir
oumstances under which the cholera has
broken out amongst the Russian troops IN
Bessarabia. Notwithstanding the progress of
the epidemic the Russian troops concentrated
in the nsighbourhood of the Roumanian from
tier have not been Withdrawn.
While the epidemic is decreasing at Havre,
it remains about stationary at PARIS. There
were 20 cases of choleraic diarrhm1 in that
city on Tuesday and seven de tbs. Ia the
suburbs the figures were nine cases and two
deaths. At Havre there were five cases and
four deaths. he total number of deaths at
Havre since the commencement Of the cpl
demlc is 43S and of cases l.197. At Rouen on
Tuesday two fresh cases were recorded, one
being that of an English sailor from the
steamer Risca.
The disease has now entered Austrian terri
tory, having broken out at Cracow and the
neighbouring town of Podgolze. 1t is not
certain that.the infection came from Russia,
as there was recently a large influx into
Galicia of German labourers from Hamburg.

THE FoRrIFICATTON OF BlsERTA.
Times, Sept 81

The Vienna Correspondent of The Times
telegraphs -
Last February. on the strength of special
information, / drew your attention to the
fortified works which France had already for
some time been constructing at Biserta."
Now the NeUe Freje Pre88e publishes q lead
ing article entitled, The War Harbour of BIZ
serta, the facts in which are clearly derived
from a competent source, while the article
itself reads as if intended to prepare public
opinion for a diplomatic incident of impor-
tance.
I subjoin some passage Of this interesting
communication =
ITO begin with, there is the fact that
a first class war harbour is built by France
and that the balance of power in the Medi-
t|orranean may be modified to the prejudice
Of the Triple Alliance. The harbour of Bis
orta is only Ii hours from ALTA, and France
has evidently been bent on rendering it i'm
pregaable. Modern ships Of war can reach
the Sicilian coast from Biserta in one
night.
"Aftor the occupation Of Tunis, France
formally promised not to transform Biserta
into o war harbour, protesting to have only
commercial objects in view. In 1886 q
French military commission inspected the
coast aus a little later a plan for the coast
defence was elaborated in Paris. The French
Government then sent engineers to BIserta
and secretly took surveys which were follow
cd by the first diplomatic representations of
the B i5hGovernment yet the French ca
binet still denies that it had any evil inten-
tons. 1T did not feel firmly established in
Tunis and did not yet enjoy the patronage Of
Russia.
When France began to receive the Tsar's
favour * proceeded with more assurance.
Plans and designs have once more been pro-
duced and the French have began to build a
war harbour 81 the largest Dimensions. The
English and Italian circumstances, and also
certain represeni atoms from Germany, were
met BY a aat denial. A period Of persistent
silence followed, until the change in the stu.
alton brought about at Cronstadt emboldened
France to contend that by the Bardo Treaty
ii was entitled to build the B.sorta Harbour. In
virtue f that treaty France undertook 20 pro-
vide Eor the saf9tyof Iunis and the protection
ofthe Boys dynasty. In vain France was in
formedthat nobody threatened Tunis or the Bey,
and thatin any case that would not Justify the
construction of a port which would cost more
that Is million francs. France assumed a
more independent and off hand tone, and the
Harbour Of Biserta is now declared to be a
work of national defence, and is destined to be
the point Of concentration Of all the French
maritime forces in the great, unavoidable. and
decisive struggle for supremacy in the Medi-
terranean
"The Italians regard this state Of things as
most serious, and believe that its gravity will
be recognized in England. 1t is also con-
sidored in Berlin that Biserta will be a point
of first rate military Importance in case Of war
with the three Allied Powers. Thus the 1u-
nissan question seems destined to strengthen
and maintain the Triple Alliance, and the
fate of Europe may possibly be decided in the
Bay of Carthage"
