At a meeting of the Health and Police
Committee of the Supervisors yesterday
afternoon the communication Of Health Of
fcer Keeney asking for 5000 for the en-
gagement of twelve additional inspectors
and the purchase of disinfectantS was re-
ferred to the Finance Committee in the
absence of funds to pay for more inspectors.

Chairman Wilkinson then called the at
tention of the Health Officer to an article in
THE MORNING CALL regarding "morgue"
for dead animals at the southeast corner of
Grove and Buchanan streets.
In the article property-owneTs had asked
The CALL to voice their complaints against
all kinds of dead animals being stored on
ffty-vara lot at the quarter named, bring
ing evidence that the nuisance is of the
most Objectionable type.
DR.. Keeney at first said he didn't believe a
word of it, but Chairman Wilkinson firmly
directed his attention to the internal evil
dence of the articles accuracy.
Then the Health Officer fell back on the
plea that nc such complaints had reached
his Office.
He was directed to look into the matter
without delay.
DIR. Ayers offered two resolutions in view
of the approach of cholera. The first was
that the purchase OF Shag Rock for quar-
antine station be consummated.
The second resolution recommended the
appointment of committee to secure legis-
lation for the issuance of S20,000,000 Of
per cent bonds for city sewerage purposes
and thus to give employment to 10000 idle
laborers, itself one of the best sanitary
measures.
Both resolutions were favored by the
committee.
The committee also reported in favor Of
leasing a house owned by one Cam ON on
Mission road for the establishment OF po-
lice station at Ocean View at S25 month,
the house to be fitted up as the Chief Of P0-
lice desires at Cannon's expense.

Nor is il likely that the board feared In

vas expressly stipulated that the physician

Besides, it was intended to ask that the

would presumably obviate all fears on that
score.
Nevertheless, for reasons that appear in
explicable, the board has not seen it at the

NOT A CHOLERA SHIP.

SHE CONES FROM CALCUTTA.
Two Deaths From Dysentery Lead to Very
Sensational story-Local Quarantine
Matters.

The sensation monger had cheap triumph
Yesterday in the report that the ship Frank
Pendleton from Calcutta had had two deaths
from cholera, and was a cholera-ship in the
most dismal acceptation Of the term.
There is nothing in the nature OF I'M
probability about cholera. travelling round
and round the earth. Unusually does in
each great epidemic. 1t is not as swift as
AriePs girde. It does not circumscri5e the

On, the other hand the notion of ship 153
DAYS out, arriving with a healthy crew,
after two men had died on board from
dysentery four months before, being elassed
as a cholera-ship, is too ridiculous to need
comment.
The men who died on the Pendleton had
not even sailed out Of cholera port.
DR.. Lawlor when interviewed yesterday
by a CALL reporter, simply ridiculed the
idea that the men had died Of cholera, or
that the vessel was cholera-shlp, as that
dreaded term is commonly understood.

Madras in free pratique bound for San

'The certificate further says that good
health is enjoyed in Madras and the ad-
jacent country without any species OF
plague, cholera or contagion.'
But the Consul admits that there were
142 deaths from cholera and twelve from
smallpox in the previous week.
''The two men who died on the Pendle-
ton had not reached Madras and while Cap
tain Nichols said nothing of their death, it
may be set down as very unlikely that the
event was due to cholera In either case.
The captain, as / am informed, gives dys-
entery as the cause.
That is disease which is very common
and very fatal in India, but it is an entirely
different thing from cholera
l told Captain Nichols to allow no one to
leave the ship except himself, had the quar-
antine flag hoisted and the whitehall boats
ordered off.
L said also that would return as soon as
possible and thoroughly fumigate the ves

KILLED HIS SISTER.IN.LAW.
A Prominent Georgia Physician Goes
~ Suddenly Insa,E u

MACON, GA, Nov. 2--Dr. G.
W. Kelly, one Of the leading
physicians of Jefferson coun-
ty, is in custody at Louisville
for killing his sister-in-law,
who tried to rescue his 8
year-old daughter after he
had thrown the child in q
forty-foot we'll.
Kelly had suddenly became
a raving maniac. After being
arrested d he alternately chuck
led and raved as he declal ed
what he had done-that God
had told him to kill them
both to save them from eter-
nal damnation. When the
sister-in-law first realized
that the doctor was insane
he had then thrown his it,le
daughter into the we'll. With
a sudden scream she dashed
5ut to save the child. At this
Kelly drew his revolv r and
fred. The woman ran into
the house and seeing no 9th
er way Of escape leape d
through a window. AS she
did so the doctor fired again
inficting a wound in the
back. Her screams attracted
neighbors, and after a severe
struggle the madman was
overpowered. Meantime the
walls of the child in the we'll
attracted a crowd to that
point. What seems miracu-
lous she had not sunk below
the water. The bucket was
lowered, the child got into it.
and clinging to the rope was
brought up.
The wounded woman died
yesterday afternoon, but the
child will live.
