Fearful Lest sojournsrs From the Latter
Bring Cholera to the Holy City.
CAMBRIDGE, Feb 5.-The Hon. Theodore
T. Wright, of this city, Secretary for the
United States of the Palestine Exploration
Fund, has received private letters. which
state that the cholera has not yet been
suppressed in the northern part of that
land; that Jerusalem does not admit people
coming from Damascus, and that the next
summer may bring the dreaded disease into
the holy city itself
The quarterly statement of the Palestine
Exploration Fund for January tells Of an
examination of pool north of Jerusalem
for the first time and the discovery of a
series of tombs with an inscription not vet
read, of careful calculation of the length
of the cubit, of the true date Of Sinaitic in
scription, and of the serious examination of
the mud of the Dead Sea, which is found
to contain the baccilli of gangrene and
tetanus.
A recently discovered lamp has been re-

MANCHESTER STRIKE CASES
The Company Fails to Bring Out Dam
aging Testimony.

The Company Fails to Bring Out Dam
aging Testimony.
The Manchester strike cases came up for
hearing before Police Magistrate Braun,
of Allegheny, at 4:3O o'clock yesterday
afternoon. The defendants placed on trial
were A J. Mitchell, charged with riot and
pointing firearms; Michael Roth, malicious
mischief, and j. C. Schumacher, riot
In the first case one witness for the car
company was heard, ]. II. Shannon. He
testified that on January 10, about o'clock
in the afternoon, Mitchell ran after his car,
attempted to grab the trolly rope, and drew
metallic substance resembling a revolver
from his pocket. This was about all he had
to testify except that large crowd was
present at the time.
The other cases were then taken up, bat
no witnesses for the prosecution appeared
and Roth and Schumaker were discharged.
The argument was then made by Attorney
L. X. Porter in behalf of Mitchell. He
maintained that the prosecutor had not
claimed weapon had been pointed and
further was uncertain that the article said
to have been drawn was weapon. The de-
fense had ten witnesses to swear that
Mitchell did not draw weapon; that he
held in his hand only paper On the
strength of this Mitchell was discharged,
upon the charge of pointing firearms. In
the riot case the decision was reserved.
