SITUATION IN rAz BAY.
Health Officers Insist the Plague Did Not
Get in Through Quarantine.

Get in Through Quaranune.
IL QUARASTINE, sept. l4.-On being
informed this afternoon that there was
cholera IN New York City, DIR. jenkins
expressed great surprise. He says that
II has certainly not been taken IN
through quarantine.
Viewed from the health officers otfi-
cial residence tonight the cholera scare
IS not the pleasant picture OF progress
IN stamping out the disease which has
existed for the past few days. The
report that actual cases of Asiatc
cholera have existed IN New York
for the last week, IN spite OF
daily official bulletins TO the con-
trary, spreads wet blanket
over the doctors keeping the scourge
from passing the ocean gateway. The
flash OF Encouragement which spread
over the face of Health Officer Jenkins
when told of the official admission
made by the New York board of health
this afternoon was certainly natural,
while his instant exclamation, II don't
believe It got IN by quarantine" simply
voiced the belief of all who have been
stationed here aud watched the devel-
Opment of affairs. Tomorrow will be
a dag of activity IN lower quarantine,
and with good weather the seven ves-
sells will be fairly cleared of their living.
The iron steamer Cephus left Fire
Island at 8 o'clock and tied up at $50
tonight AZ the upper boarding station.
Tomorrow transfer service will be be-
gun, and taking the Normsnnia's pas
sengers to Fire Island will be con-
tinued in earnest. The RugIa's cabin
people will be placed on the New
Hampshire, and the Wyoming's cabin
passengers will be taken to Fire Island.
II Camp Lowe is ready the steerage
people OF the Normsnnia who have
been on Hoffman island will be moved
there as will also those on the Moravia.

there had been suspicious transactions
IN the negotiations with the Indians
and he sent II lengthy statement Ia

Of the report, however, and he believes

AT OUR DOOR.
Goal From Sonora to be Shipped all
 Over the Coast.

The Denver News contains some very interesting information concern ing the coal fields, which have been opened d few miles to the south of us near the Sonora road, and 70 miles this side of Guaymas.
 A. A. Mcknight and l.. VI. Lowery will leave for the City of Mexico this week to close up the arrangements for putting into operation the Denver ard -sonora Coal Co, This concern is almost Sholly in the hands of Denver men.
 MT. McKnish Int and his partners have secured concession from Mexico for several hundreds of thou sands of acres of coal land in the state of Sonora. together with the right to construct a ailSay from the port oi Qua, mas te the coal lands. This line will be about seventy miles long, and the government guarantees to grant to it's builders sl3,000 mile Of gold bonds. The country through which it will pass is not at all rough, and 1t is claimed that the line can be con- s.ructed for somewhat less than Sl3,OOO a mile. Though the coal beds lie considerably higher than the ocean, the incline is gradual, and there are no special mechanical difficulties.
 Guaymas is in the state of Sonora on the eastern coast of the Gu!t ol California, and is nearly TOO miles from the City of Mexico. The business of the company will be almost wholly the shipment of coal from Guaymas to San Francisco via the Gulf of Cali fornia and the Pacific.
 The company has placed a large de posit in the banks as a guarantee oi good faith to the Mexican government. After MT, Knight concludes his busi- ness in Mexico, il is understood that he will go east to prepare for the com mencement work.
