for his appearance in court, and was re-
leased pending trial States Attorney
Longnecker was inclined to go slow today
in the matter of further indictments. He
said that having thrown seven, it was
matter OF certainty that the dice of justice
would land the proverbial eleven. The
states attorney protested against too
much of a sensation being made, and
stated that unfortunately no evidence had
been obtained against the bribe gIvers.
There were hopes, however that comics
sion from some OF those caught in the tolls
might lead TO something startling. Judge
Longnecker limited at another reason for
acting cautiously. There was belief on
his part that no less than three members
of the grand jury were practically IN
league with the boodiers and were report
ing to the suspects the secrets of the pros
ecution
The mysterious woman in the case, Ham
nah Larkin, whose name is attached as Il
witness to all the indictments, and about
whom there has been all sorts of wild
theories, turns out to be stenoSrapher
for Alderman Roth, the decoy whom the
boodlers took into their confidence.

At the same time Dr. William T. Jen-
kins, health officer of the port, put up
temporary pavilions on North Brother
island and kept every suspect there and on
Ellis island, where immigrants are now
landed. All the passengers of the Mar
sala, which arrived from Hamburg, were
detained because there were 119 suspected
Russians" on board. Meanwhile a case
appeared in Hartford and few in small
places up the Hudson. and so the panic
spread.
And with good cause; for the typhus,
which has it's origin in eastern Europe or in
Asia, is among the most deadly and unman-
ageable of diseases and is very contagious,
a single exposure to the breath or exhala-
tions of the sick often sufficing to plant the
infection in nurse or physician. The best
physical condition is no protection what
ever. Indeed, it is believed in Russia and
Italy that the strongest victims suffer
most. An additional danger is that the
virus is greatly aggravated by long voy-
age in crowded ship by the massing Of
many persons in a tenement and, worst Of
all probably. by confinement in prison,
The story Of the Hebrews is a singularly
sad one. They were expelled from southern

Eugene Weigle, Indian inspector, and
Major Tackett, chief of the alloting force

A HILL STORY.

DETROIT March 22-The Tribune IRE

Hill has sent word secretly to his Michi.
gan friends that be is not candidate foI
the presidency. The paper declares that
the Democratic state convention to be held
at Muskegon on May will send To Chi
caco an uninstructed delegation, with Sc
rret directions to follow the vote of New
York, assurance being given that Hill is
not a candidate. The Tribune goes on TO
say that last week the local Democrats
sent an embassy east to look over the po-
litical field. The first thing they did was
to call upon Senator Hill and ask from
him candid declaration of his position.
This they got the Tribune declares; and
then it adds:
My friends, the senator declared, 81
am not candidate for the presidency. |
am ambitious to attain that high honor,
but am fully aware that while | might
secure the nomination | should be inevita-
Gly defeated at the polls"

The Vote of an Insane Cardinal.

Cardinal Howard, kinsman of the rich
Duke of Norfolk, was made cardinal by
Pope Plus TX in 1877. Three years ago he
lost his mind, and be IS now kept in re
straint at the Castle of Arundel The
question now agitating the minds Of some
clerical politicians is whether Cardinal
Howard can vote in a meeting OF the sa-
cred college A member OF either the
British or French parliament could vote,
though he was mad as a march hare; but
this is new question so far as the papal
conclave is concerned. The pope might
degrade him from his high Office. but
would probably hesitate TO do this out Of
consideration for the family of the cardi-
nal and OF his own distinguished record
In early life the cardinal was an officer oi
the Second Life Guards, and forsook the
helmet for the tonsure on account of a love
affair
