CHICAGO, Sept. l2.-The Garfield
park race track received a black eye in
the city council meeting tonight. The
ordinance licensing the track, which
was vetoed by the mayor, was tabl ed. .

try TO pass the ordinance over the
mayors veto, but this proved not to
be the case. Resolutions which were
introduced orderug an investigation
into the charges that the police were
actuated by $50. 900 bribe from the
Hawthorne people in their raid on

also set of resolutions to investigate

NOT On FIRE ISLAND
So Says the Local Board OF
Health,
BUT GOVERNOR FLOWER SAYS
That Its Occupation by the Cholera Pa
tcnts Is for the Good Of the
Whole County.

NEw YORK, Sept. 12.-Governor
Flower arrived at the Windsor hotel
here at $50 O'Clock this morning. I'M
mediately on arriving he began his
investigation of the cholera troubles,
PARTICULARLY the situation at Fire island.
Fne governor says he anticipated no
further trouble from Fire island. The
state. he said, would take possession at
once. He is prepared 10 take any step,
10 matter how stringent. 10 keep the
cholera away from New York City.
Determined Opposition.
Or. W. A. Baker, health officer OF
Islip, who remained at Fire Island a. |
night, accepted the answer OF Secre-
taTy Bach of the state board, that the
local board had no authority TO inter
tere as final. and counseled MS fellow
members against any further resistance
TO the landIngo the Normanla' pas
sepgers. But the others decided 10 lg-
more the advice. More than a hundred
South Bay catboats. sharpies. sloops
and other small boats, each with ten or
more men and boys on board, were un-
der weigh at daybreak this morning,
sailing from all points on the Great
South Bay TO Fire Island. "In al
the boats every man who had or could
borrow gun or pistol brought II with
him and the entire ilotilla carried per-
maps 900 armed men. OF these 500 or
600 came from Patchogue. sayvllle and
the country near them, ESQ from Bay
Shore and perhaps as many from Baby
lon. Every man on board a boat was a
bayman or a sympathizer, and fully de-
termined to prevent by force, If neces-
sary, the Handing of the quarantined
cabin passengers. In Bay Shore the
feeling stands at fever heat and loud
threats are heard of treating Landlord
Sammls, who sold the Surf hotel TO The
state authorities for refuge, TO coat
of tar and feathers.
To Secure an IDjunc;ion.
Judge Barnard of the supreme court
acted today IN the Fire-lslan0 matter.
He issued an injunction restraining
Governor Flower, Or. Jenkins and 9TH
ers from landing quarantlned passen-
gers on Fire island. This applies TO
the town of Isllp In particular.
A dispatch from Babylon, L. l., says:
Almost everybody III the village is
armed and will resist any invasion.
Justice of the Peace James b. Cooper
says that the hotel and all its surround
ings will be burned 10 the ground If a
landing is attempted.
The health board authorities issued
the first daily bulletin for the week at
10 O'Clock this morning. 1t read that
there were no cases of cholera II the
city yet.
The Portland daily press., 1892-03-28

It seems to be pretty well established
that Admiral Hotham, with a feet of
English war vessels, is on his way to
Behring Sea. 1t seems to be decided,
too, that our vessels will go also with
orders to prevent the taking of seals in
the sea. Unless some understanding is
arrived at between the two governments,
therefore, collision between the forces
of the two nations is among the POSSIBLE
ties. Of the English vessels reported on
the way, only one, the Warspite, is at all
formidable. The others would be no
match for our cruisers, such as the Bos-
ton and Chicago. There are some formi-
dable English vessels on the Asiatic sta
ton, however, and the Behring Sea fleet
could, if occasion demanded, be easily
reinforced from that quarter. The prob
ability is. however, that the comparative
strength of the two fleets will never be-
come matter of practical importance.
It is quite evident that hostile sentiment
in England is largely confined to the
Tory organs, and that the mass of the
people are opposed to war or any con-
duct on England's part that will disturb
the present amicable relations with this
country. This being the case, Lord Sal
isbury will virtually accede to our de-
mand in regard to the moduS vicendi, a
demand which is regarded as reasonable
by good part of the British press.
