GOTHAM'S DANGER.
1t Is in the Contamination of the
Water Supply.


Water Supply.
NEW YORK. Aug. 3O.-One of the
precautions against cholera has been
most carefully guarded from the news
papers is the archaeological work going
on at the health department laboratory
and at DR.. Herman Biggs' private
laboratory. to give warning of the first
approach of the scourge. For weeks
past every suspicious case of cholera
morbus or disentry, and there are many
such which only the health officers
hear of, has been followed
up Dy sanitary inspector of
DR.. Roberts staff. Specimens have
been gathered up in sterilized
bottles and subjected 10 microscopical
analysis by DR.. Biggs and by DR.. Bebe,
the department chemist and his assist
ant, in the Bieecker street laboratory.
Both of them are experienced bac-
terioliOgistS and have made the coma
bacillus, which carries the germ of the
cholera, special and exhaustive study.
SO far they have examined scores of
specimens, but found no trace of the
Asiatic guest.
The attention of the board-of health
was drawn to the CrutOn watershed to-
day again, as the weak point from
which the attack might come. A most
exhaustive investigation was made last
year of the watershed by the health
board. The conditions were as follows:
with but few exceptions, the streams,
lakes and reservoirs on the watershed
show evidence of contamination, more
OF less marked. The danger to the city

HAMBURG, Aug. 30.-The sultriness
of the atmosphere since early last even
ing has caused the cholera to spread
with increased rapidity, and reports of
the near abatement of the disease have
received a shock. Tonight S31 new
cases and 3I9 deaths are reported for
the day. The number Of interments
yesterday was 200. almost three times
the average in healthful times.
The long-eXpected panic seems to
have come. The exodus of families of
property owners is continuous and in
creasing. The railway stations are full
night and day and there is difficulty in
finding porters enough to transport the
baggage. Business is dead. Most of
the shops not dealing in the daily neces-
sites are closed. The celebration of
Sedan day, of the surrender
of Napoleon ILL.,, has been forbidden.
Six cases of cholera are reported this
evening from the military camp at
LOckstedt in HolStein. Many of the
soldiers are ailing, and a Temporary hos
pital for handling victims of the plague
has been established. Many cases of
the disease were reported today IN
Barmbeck, a village three miles north
east of Hamburg.

BERLIN, Aug. 30.-The air IS damp
and oppressive. The official placards
Oh the bill boards this afternoon an
nounce that in the last twenty hours
nineteen fresh cases of cholera have
been discovered. The patients have
been taken to the cholera hospital in
MOabit. The course of the disease is
watched with the most minute care by
the authorities and the official ply
SicianS who have been placed on duty at
police stations, the railway stations and
public institutions. All persons arriv-
ing from cities suspected of infection
are carefully examined and their bag
gage is fumigated.
A labOrer in q group near bill board,
near the foot of the Frederick strasse,
this afternoon was taken suddenly i'll
and he fell groaning with pain to the
ground. Physicians pronounced the
laborer's case to be one of genuine
Asiatic cholera, and the man was re-
moved to the Moabit hospital.
Reports from towns in North Germany
exclusive Of hamburg and Altoona show
that in each cases of cholera have been
discovered. In none of them. however,
has it become epidemic, and in all the
victims have been isolated. The Berlin
health officers profess confidence that
the country has seen the worst of the
plague.
There is slight abatement in the
severity of the cholera epidemic at
Altoona. From Sunday to midnight
Monday the record there shows twenty
new cases and eight deaths. At Wands-
beck. for the same period the record
shows seventeen new cases and nine
deaths.

There is no industry in this state that

iron mines, and all the return the COM
panleS get is from the sale of ore.
Iron mines are bought and sold Just
like town lot. AS soon as an iron
mine is opened and tested. and even be-
fore any ore is shipped it can be and is
ascertalned approximately how much
ore it contains. A cash valuation can
be placed upon it just as can be put
upon lot or building. 1t sells for a
given sum just as a lot or other prop
erty sells for given sums. Ii land con-

its value, or it has value simply as
land: but when it is once opened up,
then 1t has value as easily ascertaina-
ble as that of many other kinds of Drop
erty.
A man may buy lot or farm and the
the fact that he cannot sell it for as
much in ten years will not relieve him
from the payment of taxes on cash
valuation every year for the full ten
years, and it may be vacant property
and produce no revenue during all that
time. There is never any danger of a
corporation paying any more than its
share of taxes.
Every voter who believes in the
equality of all m EN- and interests before

meager, and was confined to one dis
patch from the consul at Bremen. He
cabled that there was no Asiatic cholera
in that city, and that every precaution
is being taken TO prevent it. The con-

Treasury officials have received as
SuranceS of the effectiveness of the

The collectors of customs at Ogdens-
burg, n. Y, and Milford, Me-, have
beeh requested to nominate inspectors
