New York Health Oficers Confident of
Keeping Out Cholera.

New York Health Oficers Confident of
Keeping Out Cholera.
New YoRK, Aug. 25.-Despite the
spread OF cholera in Europe, the local
health authorities adhere firmly to the
belief that there need be no fear of the
disease getting to this country. All
possible precautions have been taken.
They are now preparedlt to care for chol-
era patients to the number of 5000 at
moments notice.
Commissioner Mule, of the quaran-
tine board, was seen today and stated
thai the quarantine board was taking
every precaution to keep the dreaded
scourge within the prescribed quarters.
Superintendent David H. Strain stated
that everything was being done to ward
off the disease. DIR. Cyrus Edison, sani-
tary superintendent, says" Personally I
feel very secure against cholera, and
dread the epidemic much less than
would one of typhus fever. 1t would be
absolutely impossible for an immigrant
to come into the country with latent
cholera, which might develop after he
passed quarantine"

BERLIN, Aug. 25.-The carriages of all
trains arriving at Berlin and Cologne
from Hamburg are locked until the pas
aengers are examined by physicians.
DR.. Kochis reported to have said that
the number of cases of cholera in Ham
burg is not great, in proportion to the
population, but the virulent character
of the disease gives ground for the
greatest possible anxiety.
In consequence of the facilities for
the transmission of cholera by means
OF sleeping cars, that service between
Hamburg and Berlin has been sus-
pended. A passenger who arrived here
today from Hamburg showed symptoms
of the disease when he reached the
city. He was at once conveyed to the
hospital, where he was isolated.
The wife of merchant in this city
died last night, and it is believed her
death was due to Asiatic cholera.
The wealthier residents OF the city
are becoming uneasy, and it would not
be surprising if an exodus should COM
mence.

ties declare that the disease there is not
OF the Asiatic type, although many vic
tins died Immediately after seizure. The
French steamer Saint Andre, from Havre,
which has been quarantined at Pauillac,
has four cases of cholera aboard, and
one death from cholera occurred aboard.
The rains of the past three days have
lowered the temperature. Twenty
eight cases of cholera, and several
deaths, were reported in Hayre yester-
day.
The Jewish commissioners here state
that within the past month 1000 Jewish
refugees, from Russia, have passed
through Paris. most OF them on their
way to the United States. Those re-
Gently arriving have been in most
filthy condition, and should the cholera
break out among them, it will find
fertile field.
According to official cholerine returns
for the department of the Seine In
ferieure, 200 cases are reported in Dar-
metal and Dieppedalles, and 20 cases
and 20 deaths in Erisael, all due to the
use of water from the river Seine. In
Rouen no more deaths or new cases are
reported.

GERMAN
IMPERIAL APPOINTMENTS

The news reaches us by way of Lon
don that Messrs. Stsinway & Sons have
been honored with the appointment Of
piano manufacturers to their imperial
majesties, the em peror and empress of
Germany-the first bestowed upon an
American manufacturer. This cannot
fail to be hailed with considerable satis-
faction in mueical circles throughout
Germany, when we consider the impetus
given the higher forms of German art
the symphonic productions of the old
and modern masters OF orchestral writ
ing-through the fundamentally of
Steinway & Sons, whose efforts in Great
ing, fostering and expanding the culti-
vation Of music among the American
masses, and making known through vir-
tuosi in the concert room the rich stores
of piano-forte literature is known to
musicians the world over.
This latest honor bestowed upon the
American house speaks eloquently for
the International prestige won by the
Steinway piano in the most select and
cultivated European circles.

EXCITEMENT IN ANTWERP.
A General Exodus From the Strokes
City In Progress.

A General Exodus From the Stricken
City In Progress.
ANTWERP, Aug. 25.-The excitement
caused by the presence of Asiatic
cholera in this city is intense. Those
who can, are preparing to leave the city,
1t has transpired that the first persons
to fall victims to the disease were dock
laborers. They were taken to hospitals,
where the doctors, though they were
probably fully aware that the disease
was Asiatic cholera, stated to newspaper
representatives that it was common
cholera, and nothing was to be feared
from it. They acted on the worn out
theory that the concealment Of the dis
ease will prevent its spread. That
their reasoning was fallscious was
soon proved, for other patients
were soon brought to the hospital, suf-
fering from the same disease, and the
number of cases has constantly in
creased since. The first victim died
almost Immediately after entering the
hospital, and the appearance of the
bodies, if nothing else, was sufficient
proof that common cholera had not
caused the deaths. The bodies retained
their heat for longer period than is
usual when death is caused by another
disease, and looked as though they had
been through long attack Of sickness.
Many physians hold that post mortem
examination would have developed the
fact that malignant, and not simple,
cholera was the cause of the deaths.

wanna and Western and Nickel Plate
switchmen had reopened the strike. Ia

Near III o'clock this morning q crowd
! OF switchmen surrounded Master Work
man Sweeney. demanding that he de-
clare q general strike from New York "a
Chicago. Words ensued, and Switch
man Quinn, OF the Nickel Plate yards,
struck Sweeney furious blow, knocking
him down. Blood flowed in streams
from Sweeney's nose. Quinn got bis
leaders, head against telegraph pole
and punched and pounded him until he
was pulled away.
Sweeney had his wounds dressed In q
drug store. A number OF strikers as
sembled on the sidewalk in front Of the
place, and threatened to do further vio-
lencs to the grand master. Sweeney
was frightened, and the police dispersed
the mob.
Bitter feeling against Sweeney has
developed among the late strikers, who
consider that they have been duped and
betrayed by him. One OF them stated
that Sweeney had given the men no
chance to get their places back again.
TRYING TO GET BACK.
As result Of the midnight order de-
claring the strike failure, many of the
idle switchmen were this morning try
ing to get back into their old places.
A visit to the various railroad offices
ELECTED the information that the roads
will not take back the strikers to their
old places,in body. Many will not be

treated In the came manner aa other
applicants.

the Twenty-ninth street Carnegie mills
quit work today, in sympathy with the

principally clerks, who had been seen at
times talking to reporters and strikers,

Ihe Cases OF Orange and Los Angeles
Counties Argued.
SACRAMENTO, Aug. 25. To-day, Asses-
sor Jacob Ross and Supervisor Armour,
of Orange county, appeared before the
state board of equalization, and ex-
planned how assessments of property
there are arrived at. The hearing was
disposed of briefly, and the case Of Los
Angeles county was taken up. There
were no developments of special inter-
est. Assessor Gray and Supervisors
Davis, Hubbard and Perry were present,
and the matter of assessing young or
chards was discussed at length. Asses
sor Gray thought that in some cases the
land was not increased in value until
theptrees were several years old, but in
others the value was increased as soon
as the trees were planted. The returns
showed that while improvements in the
city had increased, the taxable value of
real estate had declined in the past year,
and outside improvements had also de-
clined. AS in the other cases, the board
took the matter under advisement until
later in the session. sfas

The confident assurance with which the Mug

the thinnest sort of thin ice is freshly Illus
trated in their comments on the plank in the
Republican platform relating to the silver qucs-

gans appreciate the fact that the silver qucs-
ton is one of the most serious problems con-
fronting the party. They realize that the party
is hopeessly divided upon it, and that it is
absolutely necessary either to dodge or straddlc
it, With all their sure States bent on free
silver and determined to make it an issue in
order to save themselves from defeat at the
hands Of a third party at home, they sec that it
is impossible to dodge it. At the same time
they are painfully conscious that concession To
the free silver men would lose them New-York,
New-Jersey and Connecticut, and make defeat
certain. TO antagonizc the silver men would
be fatal in one section to yield to them would
be equally fatal in another The only escape
is by some sort of straddlc that will seem to
say something while meaning nothing, and in
that way fool both sides. 1t is not an easy
thing to do. The dilemma is difficult one
