CHOLERA WILL COME.
The Plague Is Almost Certain to
Reach New York.
Measures to Prevent Its Spread Being
AdOpted-No Genuine Cases Found
Yet-The Disease In England,
Scotland and Germany.
TAKING PRECAUTIONS.


NEw YORK, Aug. S0.-The sanitary
authorities, after a conference with
Mayor Grant and Health Officer Jen-
kins, have decided that it would be
foolhardy not to expect the Asiatic
scourge to appear here and they have
acted as if they counted on its breaking
out within the next week. AS
a result of the quarantine confer
ence all immigrants from infected
ports will, after individual ex-
aminations and the fumigation and
steaming of baggage, be subjected to a
rigid quarantine from two to five days.
OF course the steamship companies,
which will be taxed for this detention,
will not be slow to act, and the result
of the order will be practical cessa-
ton of immigration from points that
menace the United States with con-
tagion.
Anton Polzel, the Austrian immi-
grant who was taken to Bellevue hos
pital suffering from what was feared
to be cholera symptoms, is still in an
isolated tent on the grounds attached
to the hospital. The physicians who
have examined him are certain that ne
is not suffering from that disease.
Several steamships arrived here Mon
day morning. They all had Storage
passengers. They were the Arizona,
from Glasgow; the Picqua, from Naples,
and the America and the Saale, from
Bremen. All the passengers were sub
jected to searching investigation and
the vessels, baggage and mails disin-
fected. No evidence of cholera was
found among the passengers. The YES
sells were released and proceeded to
their docks.
LONDON, Aug. Soft all the deaths
that are being reported from Asiatic
cholera are true there is no doubt of
Great Britain's having a visitation of
the dreadful scourge. From Graves
end, Swansea, Glasgow and Dundee,
towns in England, Scotland and
Wales, reports come of deaths from
of the health officials to keep it out
of the country have proven fruit
less. And now comes the report
that person has died from
Asiatic cholera at Bolton, the large
manufacturing town which lies ~
miles northwest of Manchester. II is
one of the principal seats of the Eng
lish cotton manufacture and thousands
of mill operatives live there.
HAMBURG, Aug. 80.-The official chol-
era statistics place the number of new
cases of the disease reported on Satur-
day at 4S5 and the number of deaths at
las. On Sunday and up to noon Mon
day 14S new cases and 70 deaths were
reported. The disease appears to be
abating in several quarters of the city

LANSING, Mich, Aug. 3O.-Allen B.
Morse has rendered to Gov. Winans his
resignation as chief justice of the SUI
preme court to take effect October
5. In his letter of resignation Judge
Morse says that when he accepted
the nomination for governor on the
democratic ticket he expected to resign
his present office within a few days,
but on account of the condition of bust
ness in the court he finally decided to
remain in office until after the first day
of the next term of court.
