Cholera and immigration.

WASHINGTON, December 14-Some time
ago the senate committee on immigration
addressed series of questions to a num-
Der of prominent physicians in New York
city, asking their opinion as to the proba-
ble appearance of cholera in this county
next year the character and extent of
the danger according to their views, and
the relation Of immigration to this ques
ton, and what effect the suspension Of
immigration for ono year would have
upon tho danger. Replies have been re-
ceived from DR. George +. Shrady, DR..
Joseph D. Bryant, Dr. 4. Looms, DR.. /.
A. Sayre. DR.. w. A. Ewing, D.. j. f..
Winters, DR.. Cyrus Edison and Cbas. G.
Wilson, president Of the city board of
heath.
These physicians expressed a general
unanimity of opinion that there is great
apprehension that cholera will become
epidemic during The spring and summer
OF 1898. They believe that rigid quar-
antlne should be adopted and constantly
maintained in this country and that all
passengers arriving on steamships should
be SUBJECT to a close medical examination.
If this inspection and quarantine cannot
safely be conducted by United States
officers, tho physicians believe that immi'
grafton should DO entirely suspended.

The Land Boom Cases.

An ABSTRACT OF THE RECENT DECISION OF
THE VIRGINIA COURT OF APPEALS.
The following is an abstract of the de-
cision of the Virginia Court Of Appeals
rendered last week in the case of four of
the general stockholders of the Rich
mond and Harrisoubarg Land Company
against the company and its promoters
and against the receiver appointed to col
ect the dues of the plaintiffs. The
opinion is one of the most important de-
livered by the court for some time and will
affect very many persons throughout the
State:
l. Where a person is induced to enter
into contract by false representation
fraudulently made by the other contract
ing party OF bis agent the contract is
voidable at the option of the innocent
party. This applies with full force both
to contracts of membership and to con-
tracts of purchase. or to take shares in q
corporation at future time. The general
rule is that if subscription to shares was
obtained by fraudulent representations 1t
NAV be anuulled 10y the subscriber at any
time before other equities have inter
yened.
2. A promoter is a person who brings
about the incorporation or the organiza-
ton of a corporation, aids in procuring
subscriptions and sets in motion the ma
chinery which leads u the formation Of
the company, aud every such person is
considered in law rs occupying sfiduciary
relation toward the corporation, and is
guilty of breach of trust if he sells
property to the corporation after he began
promoting without informing the com
pany that the property belonged to him.
And he may commit breach of trust by
accepting bonus OF commission on lands
purchased by the company.
3. When a stakeholder has been de-
frauded by such trustees aud seeks re-
dress it is no answer to him to say that
by inquiry he might have discovered the
deception.
| 4. When a corporation makes represen
tations by a prospectus subscriber IS not
obliged to investigate the truth OF the
representation to protect himself against
the charge of negligence.
| ). A stakeholder induced to subscribe
by fraud has several remedies open TO him
one by bill in equity to restrain suits at
law and to set aside subscription contracts
and to secure back pay ments already made
on the subscription.
6. Several subscribers defrauded in the
same way may join in one bill against the
company and the officers and promoters,
and, although sustaining injurles IN
various amounts, the court will grant
complete relief by decreeing that the
directors and officers guilty of the fraud
shall refund to the parties all payments
made 10y them, and the guilty directors
must be made parties, and the bill is not
multifarious by reason of its blending

DIR. Bohannon writes to the Page CoW-
Ter that notwithstanding all that the
newspapers have said about the big
wheat crop Of the west, that 70 ono can
conceive Of its immensely without seeing
it !. that all the elevators. mills srauarles'
cara on tracks on the way east, the side
tracks crowded. and that oil blacksmith
shops and tenement houses.haye been call
ed into requlsltion to store it. Tie fields
never before produced such crops. He
sympathizes with the farmers, especially
OF old Virginia, where it costs at least
double to raise wheat as it does in the west,
and where not half as much per acre is
produced as there is in the west. lie
laments the low price at which wheat is
selling, but fears tina, we will wait in
vain for better prices this year.

Mr. White Willlamson's flock was attack
ed on the night of the 9TH instant and
seven killed and thirteen wounded. On
tie same night Mr. J. n. Thomas flock
was raided and seventeen or eighteen
badly torn up. The hocks of Mr.. Joseph
Myers and of Mr.. G. NJ. Williamson wore
also raided, many of the sheep being bit
ten. 1t is a terrible outrage that far
mers cannot be better protected IN this
