Secretary OF the Treasury Foster came
over from Washington last night and
registered at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. He
was accompanied by sx-Surgeon General
Frank NJ. Hamilton OF the United States
navy, who is now connected with the
Marine Hospital servica
Mr. Foster said that he did not expect
any conflict with the State authorities
about the quarintine Of vessels, but he
quoted this act of Congress to show that
he had authority to act on his own re-
sponsibility:
Whenever Il shall be made to appear TO the
satisfaction OF the President that cholera,
yellow fever. smallpox, or the plague exists
in any State or Territory, or the District Of
Columbia, and that there Is danger of spread
of the disease into other States or Territories,
thorized TO cause the Secretary OF the Treas
ury TO promulgate such rules or regulations
as may be necessary TO prevent the spread Of
the disease.
This would seem to apply only in case
cholera actually is present in this State.
but Mr. Foster intimated that it applied
equally In regard to ships coming to this
port.
He did not believe that there was any
justification for a cholera scare. In 1887.
he said, there were more cases OF cholera
on ships in the bav than there are now.
There were then over thirty cases on two
ships, the Alesia and Britannia, but the
disease did not spread.
He added that he had no doubt of his
authority to detaiu vessel after the
State authorities had released her. DR..
Hamilton. he said, had framed the law
which was quoted above after observing
the yellow fever epidemic in Florida in
1889. The law was passed on March "a,
1890 DIR. Hamilton had framed all our
existing national quarantine laws since
1877.

NEW YORK, Sept 5.-Cholera claimed
new victims yesterday on each OF the
three Hamburg steamships now lying In
quarantine. and four more names must
be added to the death roll.
There were two deaths on the Nor
MAMMA. Emma Horn, years old, a
steerage passenger. succumbed to the
disease after an illness Of five days, and
Heinrich hammers, AZ years old, one Of
the steerage stewards. died while being
removed from the ship to be taken to
Swinburne Island.
Both bodies were cremated at Swim
burne Island In the afternoon. On the
Rugia, Antonia Harla, years old, died
at 8 o'clock yesterday morning, after an
illness of few hours.
Abraham Schneidermann. the S-year-
old boy who was taken sick on the
Moravia on Friday, died yesterday while
being transferred to Swinburne Island.
yesterday, and these were aboard the
Rugia.
The only Important arrival expected to-
morrow from an infected port Is the
Suevia from Hamburg on Aug. 26 The
Elbe from Bremen on AUX. "a Is also due.
The days developments make one thing
which the Normannia, Rugia and Mora
via are infested is Asiatic cholera in its
most virulent form.
The culture investigations of DIR. Byron,
the expert bacteriologist, the deaths OF
yesterday. and the symptoms displayed by
the st ricken ones, mournfully emphasize
this fact, and the hopes strenuously in
dulged in that the disease was not the
genuine Eastern agent OF death are shown
to be unfounded.
The following table shows the number
of cases on each of the scourge ships, to-
gether with the deaths at sea and In port
