The seals were broken, the door opened,

gave the names OF Thomas Fox, Michael
Jarney, and Frank Burke, and said they
resided in jersey City. The men were
well dressed. They said they we're walters
in a New York hotel. Last Sunday
while drunk they crawied into the car at
Jersey City to sleep. When they awoke,

A Vigorous Protest.

New YORK, Sept. AN appeal is to-
day addressed to Governor Flower,
signed by committee of passengers,
first and second class, of the steamer
Normania, protesting against being kept
prisoners aboard that cholera Infected
ship. The petition is signed by com
mittee consisting entirely of hysicians,
and among other charges against DR..
Jenkins is the allegation that health
afficers only visit the vessel every two or
three days, make no systematic and reg
ular inspection, and that dead bodies re-
main on the vessel dangerously long
time before removal by the health officers.
In conclusion these physicians say:
1T seems inconceivable that 500 here
tofore healthy people should be quaran-
tined on board an infected ship. and that
it is impossible to Isolate them at place
thus far not affected"
They emphasize this point so much
more as, from all appearances. the meas
ures taken to disinfect the NormdzssG
have been incomplete and void of the
speedy, energetic and systematic mode of
proceeding which is necessary to eff
clently counterfeit the damaging infuen-
ces to which all are exposed.

A Farmer missing.

JEFFERSON, Or, Sept. 11.-Consider-
able excitement is caused here by the
mysterious disappearance of EIljah Gain,
a prominent farmer living at the green
bridge, about three miles south OF this
city. He was last seen at the bridge
about 8 O'Clock Friday evening, and was
acting queerly. Since that time no trace
of him can be found, although a number
of people have been searching for him in
all directions. He is 80 years of age,
about feet 8 inches in height, slightly
stoop shouldered, and sandy complexion
had on overslls, faded striped coat and
brown hat. Any information regarding
him will be thankfully received and lib
orally rewarded by his wife at Jefferson.

American steamship Wieland reached the

she had sickness, probably chol era,
aboard. The Wisland, like the Rugia,
carries both cabin and steersge passen-
gers, and no doubt has her full compile
ment OF the latter. The yellow flag has
slso been hoisted on board the Normaanis,
where so many saloon passengers are de-
tanned in spite of the fact that the
scourge seems to be attacking the steam
ships crew and steerage passengers
alone. Though the news of another
cholera ship in port increases the gravity
of the situation at quarantine, there is no
alarm felt ID official circles, and the
health authorities are still confident of
being able to keep the dread invader
from landing DR. jenkins said last
night there had been no new cases aboard
the Morapsa for several days, and he was
confident the disease had been stamped
out aboard that vessel.

A Terrible Wreck.

BOSTON, Mass, Sept. 10.-A terrible
accident occurred about 10 O'Clock to-
night at Watertown Junction, near West
Cam mbridge station, on the Fitchburg
railroad, caused by westbound freight
telescoping the rear car of the 1915
Waltham passenger train from Boston.
Fifteen killed and wounded have already
been taken from the wreck, and it is be-
lieved that many more are beneath the
debris. The passenger train was heavily
loaded, as is always the case on Saturday
night, and had arrived at the junction,
where it was waiting for an eastbouEd
train to pass before crossing the main
track to the Watertown branch road.
While the train was standing on the main
line, the freight, which had followed
from the Boston yard, crashed into the
rear car, crushing it into pieces and jam

The force of the collision smashed the
front end of the boiler and cylinders, and

situation to those already imprisoned.
As quickly as possible notice of the acci-

as they could get there by different modes

What Was Done at the Special Meeting
Yesterday.
Yesterday afternoon, at 5 o'clock,
the city council met in special session
at the "Rookery," on the hill, to con-
slider and pass upon the plans and
specifications of the Lewis MERCER
Construction company of New York,
to construct system Observers for the
city of Austin under the provisions of
a franchise recently granted the COM
pany. The plans were quite elaborate,
showing in what streets and alleys in
which it is the intention of the city to
lay the pipes, which will range
in size from 8 to "a
inches in diameter. They will
be fitted with the most improved san
itary appliances, having automatic
flushing and disinfectant tanks. The
dump Of the system will be into the
river at the .oot of Trinity street,
while pipes will be laid north as far
as Sycamore street. Mr.. Morris and
Col. Dellafield, the engineer of the
company, were present and made
brief addresses explaining their plans.
An oldinance was Introduced by
Alderman Ziller accepting the pro-
posed plans and specifications and au-
thorizing the commencement of the
work, the exact location OF the pipes
in the streets to be determined by
the city council and the board of pub
lie works.

Have no Equal.

Allcock's Porous Plasters have at
tanned world wide reputation solely
upon their superlative merits. They
have many would be rivals, but have
never been equalled or even ap-
preached in curative properties and
rapidity and safety of action. Their
value has been attested by the high
est medical authorities, as we'll as by
ullimpeachable testimonials by those
who have used them, and they are
recommended as the best external
remedy for weak back, rheumatism,
sciatica, colds, coughs, sore throat,
chest and stomach affections, kidney
difficulties, weak muscles, strains,
stitches and aches and pains of every
description.
Beware of limitations, and do not be
deceived by Misrepresentation. Ask
for Allcock's, and let no solicitation
or explanation induce you to accept

TO AUSTIN MERCHANTS.

Austin has In the advertising way
been faxed as have all other towns
Upon one scheme and another oul
people have been talked out of a good
deal of money, and the wager is laid
that no return from it has ever found
its way to them. In this way Austin
or rather her merchants, have beer
drained of many thousands of dollars.
The annual state encampment will
furnish a natural and inviting field
for these transient depredators.
With the approaching encampment
will doubtless come the usual rush of
large promising fake advertising
schemes. Such schemes use up your
good money without giving you its
least commensurate gain, and 1t is to
warn you against such brazen depre-
dations this article is written.
These fakes promise a cir
culation of 1000 to 5000 to be "dis-
tributed gratuitously." Ask any
job printer and he will tell
you that 25 per cent of the
number promised is the usual order
to the printer. Yet granted the
full number promised are printed how
many of the "gratuitous offeringsn
will it take to reach the reg ular yearly
customers of your home press? 1t is
also the fact that upon these special
occasions the home papers always
print an extra number of copies-the
edition of The STATESMAN during the
last drill increased about 1000 NOM
ing. There is no occasion for these
new ventures, they but divert an es-
sential support from its natural chan
mel, forbid the home papers from
making the effort to please they other
wise would, and in the end result in
the advertising merchants spending
