FEAR OF CHOLERA.
Great Anxiety in Official
Circles.
GLOOrlY REPORTS RECEIVED.
The Dread Scourge Is Once More
Slowly but Surely Gaining Foot
hold i'm European Ports.
Special to THE MORNING CALL.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 22.-The continued
prevalence Of cholera in Europe excites great
apprehension in administration circles. The
hope heretofore entertained that the dread
disease had been extirpated is dissipated in
the face OF the reports of new cases, and
the conviction Is forced upon Government
officials that as predicted by many scientists
the disease will reappear with increased
violence in the spring
The United States Consul at Hamburg
to-day showed the increased uneasiness by
sending the following cablegram: Yes
terday there were two cases, and to-day
four with one DEATH"
Commenting on this, Assistant Secretary
SpauldiBg said that the situation was far
from reassuring. and that the cabiegram
was iE effect notice that this Government
must not let down the bars or relax its exer-
tlons to keep cholera from gaining foot
hold in the United States.
In this connection Representative Stump
to-day presented in the House a substitute
for the House bill relating to the restric-
lion OF immigration. IL was accompanied
by report speaking of the widespread in
terest on the subject Of immigration now
prevailing and the threatened cholera inva-
sion. Provision is made in the bill for the
partial or total suspension Of immigration
from any port or place, whether by water
or land, whenever and for so long as in the
judgment OF the people and of the Secre-
tary OF the Treasury such suspension shall
be deemed necessary

Survey for the Backbone
Railroad.
NO GREAT DIFFICULTIES MET.
The Commissions Prepared to Report
That the Line Proposed to South
America Is Feasible.
Special to THE MORNING CALL

NEW YORK, Dec. 22.-The preliminary
surveys for the projected continental rail-
road to connect the republics OF North
America with those of Central and South
America have been practically completed,
and although the official reports have not
yet been published the three commissions
have declared that practicable route has
been found, the engineering problems pre-
sented by which in no instance exceed thosa
encountered in the construction Of the
Canadian Pacific and other transcontL
mental roads Of North America.
The route from Mexico through Central
America down to Costa Rica ana the CO.
lombian frontier presents practically NO
problems whatever, and the section thence
on TO the City of Panama has been thor-
oughly surveyed by an independent pro-
jector.
The section between Panama and the
valley of Arato has not been regularly sur
veyed, but the ground is already so well
known that there is no necessity for any
preliminary exploration.
The South American commissions pro-
ceeded to Quito together. whence they sur
veyed for the most practicable routes into
that elevated city from the north and out OF
1t toward the south, and, these having been
decided upon, tha commissions separated.

One of the most important discoveries
made was that the sc-called "knot of the
Andes the source of the greatest appre-
hensiOn. has proved to be by no means q
formidable affair, ard, on the whole, it Is
understood that their report will Indicate
that the route is quite as practicable as that
through Central America. although beses
with greater engineering problems.

BONAPARTISTS ACTIVE.
All the Enemies of the Republic Are
Aroused.

PARIS, Dec. 22.-To-day 1t is the Bona
partists that are stepping TO the front to
take advantage of the difficulties of the
republic.
The activity Of the royalists aroused the
Jealousy Of the imperialist leaders, and at
secret conclave they drafted manifesto
addressed 10 the people of France, urging
them to recall the house Of Bonaparte to
the throne. This manifesto has not vet
been Issued, but awaits the approval of
Prince Victor, the present recognized head
OF the ex-imperial family, now in Brussels,
The Bonapartist leaders in Paris have sent
agents to that city to induce bin to sign
the manifesto and authorize its publication.
Victor has been living in comparative re-
tirement recently, but has kept a careful
watch upon the course of events. and his
friends In Paris claim that he will be found
fully equal to any crisis that may arise. and
while prudent as TO taking decisive steps
Will be positive and courageous In action
when the step is taken. The imperialists
have been canvassing earnestly for sup
poriers among the Deputies, but not with
much success.
As the chances OF revolution against the
Republican Government seem to increase.
the division between the monarchists and
the Bonapartist5 widens. Tho members of
the two parties. heretofore on common
ground as opponents OF the republic, are
now showing considerable jealousy as to
which party will profit by the difficulties of
the republic. Already this Jealousy is
showing itself in the strained relations be-

AS OF OLD.
The Duel Has No Danger for French
Statesmen.

PARIS, Dec. 22.-General Felix Gustav
Saussier, Military Governor of Paris, and n
veteran OF the service In the Crimea, Italy,
Mexico and Africa, refuses to act as arbi-
TRAITOR between Deroulede and Clemenceau.
The idea of arbitration was everywhere rid
iculed as evidence of cowardice on the part
OF Derouede, who suggested il, and Saussier
himself is said to have uttered a very en-
phatic remark, which showed his view of
the case and put stop TO any idea of using
the old soldier as buffer to prevent COLT
sion. Upon Saussier declining to have any
thing to do with the affair Deslandes was
appealed TO and at once proceeded to arbi-
trate in a way to bring things to n climax
He decided that DerOulede and Clemenceau
should have an opportunity to take six shots
at each other
Tie proposition to come as near as five

altogether contrary 10 the traditions of
French dueling. lie held the ccmbatarts

with the privilege of advancing three steps
during the firing-the one that happens to
be perforated the first to have the oppor-
tunity of stating, If able. whether his honor

hClC Although not lDaQe al
open stipulation In the programme, 1t was
understood that Clenencean was not TO get
out an extra of La Justice announcing the
result until the other newspapers were mott
fed, and Deroulede was to have the privi-
lege of having a camera and a reporter on
the spot to take snap shots. provided Glenn
enceau chose 10 do so. In the event of
fatal result. the dying words were to be
faithfully reported.
All of these vitality necessary prelmina-
ries settled, the combatsnts bade an affee-
tionate farewell TO their weeping friends
before departing for the bloody field Of
honor. They distributed locks of their hair
TO sorrowng admirers. Arrived at the
dueliDg ground, twenty-five PAGES were
measured off. aud the surgeon prepared his
instruments for immediate use. The antag-
onists appeared pale but resolute when they
faced each other, and received the weapons
from the hands of the seconds.
At the word "Fire!" both pistols were dis
charged simultaneously. The bullets few
wide of the mark. The spectators hastily
slid down from the adjoining fences and the
seconds moved little further off before the
second ronnd.
Again the weapon OF death barked, but
did not bite. A friend rushed forward and
expressed the hope that honor was satisfied
and suggested that the murderous encoun-
ter be closed. Both, however. demanded
another shot, and solicitous friends hastily
retired to a distance. Again two puffs OF
white smoke and sharp reverberation were
the only results of the third round. The
seconds then insisted that the murderous
work must end, and the principals reluc-
family accepted their decision. The duelists
were overwhelmed with congratulations
upon their courage and GOODNESS.

CRISP IN THE LEAD.
An Interesting Fight On for the Speak
erSilip.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 22-Don IT. DickIn-
son of Michigan has heen familiar figure
at the Capitol during the past two DAYS,
and although his visit is ostensibly 10 look
after case in the Supreme Court he has
spent very little time in the room occupied
by that tribunal. This morning he spent
some time in Speaker Crisp's room, a fact
which gave rise to considerable gossip
The conference of Mr.. Dickinson with a
number Of Representatives who are popu-
larly known as cleveland Democrats" oc-
casloned some talk to the effect that he had
come to Washington TO quietly manipulate
an organization of the next House. Some
remarks attributed to him by those with
whom he conversed rather emphasized this
gossip. but 1t is quite certain that whatever
mas been done Is merely tentative. Crisp's
heutenants, however, are not idle. In fact
recent events have caused a pretty free ex-
preston of the views of members of the
House on the subject of the speakership.
The friends of the Speaker now assert with
confidence that he will succeed himself, and
some OF them express belief that the senti-
ment In his favor will be found so strong
that Crisp will have no opposition. They
claim that 14O have s!gniied their intention
OF voting for Crisp, and ii only takes IC9 to
give him the caucus nomination.

the participants. The combat was caused

minutes and was a most desperate en-.

favor of her husband and the riot ensued.
