Account Of New Cases.
SAVANNAH, Ga. Aug. %. The Morn
ing News special from Brunswick,
Ca, says: s. P. Harris has been pro-
nounced i'll with yellow fever at the
Presbyterian parsonage. Surgeon Hut
ton assumed control Of the case for tho
government and moved Harris inside
the quarantine limits to City Physician
Branham's house, where Surgeon Bran
ham died. Yellow flags were raised
around the parsonage and the house
was thoroughly disinfected. Harris
brother, who had been nursing him,
was sent to the national quarantine
station, Sapilio. Mayor Lamb has
issued proclamation urging everyone
who could go to leave the city. Free
passes will be given to deserving poor
people desiring to leave. Many such
passes were issued.
Surgeon Guiteras, the eminent yellow
fever expert, announced that there are
no new or suspicious cases, and while
one or two more may develop in tho
next ten days, atmospheric conditions
preclude the possibility Of an epidemic.
People are leaving Brunswick rapidly.
It is estimated that 5000 people will
get away. All coaches on all railways
are jammed. The general Offices of tho
Brunswick and Western railroad moved
to Waycross Monday night. The feel
ing of anxiety in the city is very great.

KNOCKING DOWN.
Arrests for knocking down" is one
ofths prevailing features of the Column
bian exposition. And this does not
belong exclusively to connubiating
ticket-sellers and gstemen or highway
man concesaionaires. Only few weeks
ago Columbian gateman informed the
son OF wealthy commissioner--that is,
he was wealthy before the war-Bo the
story goes sinee-(both commissioner
and son being on salaries, by the way,
which they do not n)-that he must
show his pass, and the guard was
promptly knocked down. A. few days
afterwards ye pompous commissioner
one OF the Pooh Bahs"-entered the
gate, and when the guard asked him for
his pass. he just let fly his vigorous
right, accompanied by some not choice
monosy Tables, and the victim was
sprauled out in less time than it takes
West Virginia bank to protest a bogus
check. On the day of adjournment as
many as SIX commissioners were insult
cd at the gates by being asked for passes.
Only think OF It, Was there ever such
incidence? But the commissioners
behaved nobly, and at once laid
cut a half dozen intruders.
/ could relate some other instances of
highwaymanship on the part Of the
commissioners, which is town talk here.
But the above will suffice. Besides,
am afraid am treepassing too much on
your town, at any rate. There Is one
thing certain, if the great fair is not
success, you may lay 1t in great part to

sioner Lochren.
WASHINGTON, June 10.-Judge Loch-
rem, commissioner Of pensions, with
the approval OF Secretary Hoke Smith,
has issued the following important
order as to adjudicating and fixing rates
Of pensions:
Firet-A claim for pension under the
second edition of the act of June 81,
1850, can only be allowed upon proof OF
mental or physical disability OF per-
manent character. not the result of the
claimants own vicious habits, incapaci-
tating him from the performance OF
manual labor in such q degree as to
render him unable to earn support.
Second-No specific injury or djsabil-
ity can, ss such, have q pensionable
rate under that act, nor be considered
otherwise than it effects the capacity
of the claimant to perform ordinary
manual labor.
Third--Proof that the disability Is not
the result of claimants own vicious hab-
it's is requisite; therefore the causes and
circumstances of the origin of the disa-
bility should be shown by the evidence
furnished in support OF the claim for a
pension, so far as can be done, and by
persons other than the claimant.
Fourth--To give claimant pensionable
status under this act, his disability must
be such as to incspacitate him for the
performance of manual labor in such a
degree as to render him unable to earn
support. Yet the act recognizes differ
ences in the degree of such pensionable
disability, giving $12 per month in case
of the greatest and So per month in case
of the lowest degree, such pensionable
disability rendering the claimant unable
to earn support by manual labor. 1t
also provides for intermediate rating
proportioned to intermediate degrees Of
pensionable disability. Proper rating
under this act will therefore be made
according to such rules for rating az the
medical referee shall prescribe, subject
to the approval OF the commissioner.

ELSEWHERE we print some structures
upon the management OF the worlds
fair that emanate from the pen of keen
observer, who has many opportunities
of taking correct measure of things
that are transporting in the "White
City," 1t WAS perhaps to be expected
that many Of the officials connected
with the great exposition would abuse
their functions to ioist relatives and in.
competents into places that should have
been filled on merit, but they have ex-
ceeded expectation in this line. Mr..
Virgins, late of the Los Angeles cham
Der OF commerce, seems to have devel-
oped perfect genius for administration,
and the Los Angeles exhibit is in very
creditsble and attractive shape. At
least one of our neighboring counties
has failed to respond with its proportion
of coin to maintain An interesting dis
play for the southern counties, and our
correspondent advises Los Angeles
county to play lone hand. We lock
upon this as good suggestion, under
the circumstances.

IF The BARRIER BIG LIT DOWN.


II the continental antagonism to the
Gesry bill developed at the east should
result in the repeal of that law, the most
serious consequences would follow.
Without the regulations provided for
in that act, the several exclusion meas
ures afford no barrier whatever to the
unlimited Eruption of coolies. and it
would hardly be worth the while of the
people of this coast to resist their re-
peal.
The Chinese have so far been able,
with the assistance of our own govern
ment and the mawkish sentiment of the
east, to render statute OF the United
States imperative, Notwithstanding it
had successfully passed the critical or
deal of constitutional question in the
supreme court. They are, of course,
elated at their success, and are Justly
impressed with the idea that they can
defy our efforts to restrict their immi-
grafton to this country. With show o;
reason from the facts, they believe them.
selves greater than the law, and treat
its mandates with derision. If they
are thus pulled up with their own i'm
porrance now, they will swell into
immenee dimensions should their def.
ance eventuate logically in the repeal OF
the laws designed to restrict the coming
of their hordes to this country.
1t should never be forgotten that
the Pacific coast is confronted with 400,
900, 900 OF these people. II the tide OF
invasion that set in from China in the
COS had not been checked by the un.
friendly attitude Of our people, it would
have swelled into prodigious proportions

undesirable race. Every city in the

POINTERS FOR TODAY.
wnsrtAxn PAnx-ooucert at 8 o'clocs.

In our editorial references to Ford's
theater yesterday we Inadvertently fell
into an error. We stated that the
building that collapsed Friday morning
was not the identical building in which
John Wilkes Booth shot President Lin
coin, but one that had been erected on
Its site. The fire that destroyed the old
Ford thester aptedated Mr.. Lincoln's
assassination, and that great man was
ehot in the new editice-new at the
time of his ssssssination-and that was
the structure that crumbled to pieces
Friday. Take it for all in all, it was
one of the most remarkable incidents
that ever happened-the demolition of
the building and Edwin Booths funeral
on the same day. 1t is certainly cslcu-
Nated to set one thinking, to say the
least

"OUR friends the enemy" take such
delight in charging the Democracy with
being spoils party that we have some
touches of regret when data is published
to conclusively show that the reverse ia
the case, and that the Republican party
is superlatively entitled to the distinc-
ton. The official figures show that dur
ing the first three months of Harrison's
administration there were four removals
from ohio 30 -@-I~ W. Oi,,,oi-.-.S
during the first quarter OF his pres
ent incumbency. II the Democ.
rscy are justly indignant at Mr..
Cleveland's slownesa in making
removals, the whole people, irrespective
of party, have right to complain at his
dilatoriness in filling Offices that are va
cant. One glaring instance Of this lax
ity is in the land receivers Office in this
district. Since the death OF the late in.
cumbent, Mr.. Bryant, people having
business with the Office have suffered
because there is no one there authorized
to do 1t. Settlers who wish to pay in
money for their lands and receive Che
government title are unable to do 90.
There is no excuse for leaving 30 impor-
tant an Office vacant. A number of good
names have been presented as appli-
cants and some one of them ought to
have been appointed long ago. Public
business as we'll as private rights are

were held before the war; and they
would have realized to their sorrow that
these Asiatics had introduced new vices
and habits, unknown to our people
before, which have been contracted by
our youth and which have spread
amongst them a moral pestilencs that
is rapidly bringing ruin and death upon
those Of the rising generation who are
brought under their baleful influence.
But the process Of enlightenment by
practical experience OF the evils the
Chinese have brought upon this section
OF our country, would not have stopped
here. After realizing that they were
encouraging the Eruption OF race
whose presence is contamination and
a curse, they would have found that
these same people were a law unto
themselves, and that the six companies
who exercised supreme control over
their actions and even their lives was
also an Emporium in tmperio to whose
DEGREES they paid complete and undi-
vided fealty. Do they want further
proof OF this than that which has had
such conspicuous exemplifcation in
regard to the Geary law2 Congress, by
solemn statute, declared that all
Chinese laborers in the country should
register within year; the ak compa-
MES ordered the Chinese lsborers not to
register, and with unanimity that
could only come from unquestioning
obedience to the organization they con-
sidered the higher power, they defed
the law OF the land.
We have been used to the high
handed usurpations of the six compa-
nies in this state; but this is the first
opportunity the people OF the whole
country have had to realize that the
Chinese are not only alien to our civiliz-
alton, but foreign element OF antag-
onism and defiance in our midst. And
30 distinctive and Interchangeable are
these people that the lapse OF time
would have no improving effect upon
them. They are an unassimilative and
undigestible mass in the stomach of the
nation, who will be the same after one
hundred or one thousand years resi-
dence in our midst as they are today.
Now II the barriers are to be let down,
and the Chinese are to be allowed to
invade our country without the slightest
obstruction, we may rest assured that
they will avail themselves of the privi-
lege to the utmost. China can spare
10O,0o0,000 OF her people without feeling
the loss. We cannot receive the acces.
sion OF even fraction OF that number
without the utmost danger to our civili-
cation, and without bringing upon our
industrial classes disturbance which
will only be equalled by the sufferings
they will endure from coming into COM
petition with labor which will be at
once degrading and ruinous.

THERE 10 said to be great Indignation
in Washington at the fact that no flag
has been half-masted in commemoration
OF the deaths of the government en-
ploy6s who met their death in the ill.
fated Ford's theater. This WAS certainly
an oversight. and, doubtless, strictly an
oversight, and one that ought not to
have been permitted to occur. If some
distinguished ex-cabinet officer or other
high official had died this mark of re-
spect would have been instantly
&C corded, and all the govern
ment buildings would have carried
their flags at half mast. Not only were
the unfortunate men who lost their
lives in tine service of the government
entitled to this mark of respect, but
their untimely taking off should be the
subject OF very searching judicial in.
quiry. One and all they were murdered
by somebody or other. While on this
matter it may not be amiss to state that
the government printing building is
said to be ramshackle affair that is
liable to collapse in precisely the same
manner as Ford's theater. A little at
