FIVE MORE DIE on stIPBoARD
On board the plague stricken Hamburg
American line Of steamships, now in quar-
antine in New York harbor, the Norman
MIA Rugia and Motavin, there was much
excitement Sunday, caused by the spread

The Normannia and Rugia arrived Satur-
| day, both bearing the pestilence. On the
| former five deaths from cholera had. occur
red during the passage and four people were

| from United States Consul Williams at
/ IIavre, and special boards of French medi-
J cal examiners, that the vessel had been
! thoroughly fumigated and bore no trace Of
| cholera. Nobody on board being II Health
! Officer Jenkins certified that all we're well
| on inspection at this port.
All the first-class passengers of the City OF
/ Rome and Umbria have been landed, no.
| infection being found on board.
| During the - hours ending at n. m.
| Sunday there were three deaths on the Nor
| MAMMA, six new cases among the s,eerage
| passengers and two among the crew. Two
| of the Rugas patients have died, aud the
| 3-year-old bov aboard the Morayia who was
| stricken on Friday, has also been number
ed among the dead. More deaths are cx--
| JActcd, and If there ever existed any dOubt,
| that the disease aboard these vessels was
not cholera il has been dismissed now.
| On the Normannia, Emma Storms, years
! Old stcerage passenger, and Heirrick Lam

while in transite 10 the hospital On the
| Rugia. Christine Hansen, aged 10 years, and
I Peter Hansen, age years were taken sick.
| AntOnia iark, aged II years, died. On tho
Moravia, Abraham Schneidcrmann, aged 8,
! died. All the dead were taken to Swine
| burn land and cremated.
The foregoing facts show that the out
! look is dark and all hands on board the
luarantined vessels are preparing for long
! siege. As to the probabilities of the disease
getting into the country there need be no
alarm, if the present precautions are carried
ont. Sober thought, a careful observation
| of the directions as to cleanliness and cheer
ful compliance with health regulations will
produce the result most sired at this
crtical time. An evidence of the proper
attitude at this time was the hearty cheers
of the ia Bourgogne's passengers during the
examination to-day, when told OF the pre-
cautions necessary. They all were ready to
wait till it was deemed proper for them to
be released.
