New YORK, Feb. 1.-THE London
correspondent Of the World cables the
following: Like tiny shadow, FORE
telling the great plague that is to befall
Europe, comes the news from st. Peters
burg that ten persons died from cholera
with the cessation of the frost. The
Marseilles authorities are trying hard to
cover up the dead and quiet the fears Of
the living. But, the worst of all, as d.
rectly affecting America, is the news
from Hamburg. In the suburbs of Al
tona prisoner in the Jail has just died,
and FIVE other cases are being closely
watched. The port of Hamburg itself is
not allowed to escape. On board the
steamers Ecso and Australia four sailors
have been stricken with the disease.
The weather is moderating all over the
continent, and the warm sunshine is
bringing back to life the cholera germs.
Meanwhile, Vienna is sending invita-
tions to all nations to on international
health congress, to formulate some plan
for fighting the common foe, and in
England, Southampton is urging parlia-
ment to vote money to keep up rigid
quarantine.
MARsEILLEs, Feb. 12.-Between 6
O'Clock last evening and 2 o'clock this
afternoon eight persons died of the
choleraic epidemic and several fresh
cases were sent to the hospital Two
patients have been discharged as cured

THAT TRIPLE ALLIANCE.

PAPER REPORTS.
The Extradition Treaties with Russia
and France Not Interpreted at
Washington "a Having Un-
usual Meaning.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.-The publica-
ton of dispatches announcing that there
was hidden meaning in the extradi-
tion treaties recently ratified by the
United States senate with Russia and
France naturally occasioned many in
quiries of the officials here and MEM
bers of the senate who would be in q
position to know the facts. According
to the dispatches triple alliance be-
tween the United States, Russia and
France for mutual benefit and defense,
which has been pending for six years,
unknown either to the diplomatic or
political world at large, eliminated in

States senate two days ago in the rstih-
cation of extradition papers with those
powers.
Careful inquiry from the best source
of information do not sustain this in
depreciation of those treaties. 1t is as
serted that there is no provision in
either ofsthe treaties very widely differ
ing from the extradition treaties nepo-
tiated with Great Britain, Germany and
other powers. More TO the point still.

treaty differing essentially from the ex-
tradition treaty with Sweden, which
was ratified at the same time.
None of the senators who participated
in the discussion of these treaties have
since publicly expressed the opinion
that the ratification of these trea-
ties would be regarded by Rus
sia and France as taeit
agreement cementing those ancient
bonds of alliance which led France to
aid in our revolution and induced Rus
sia to send fleet to our moral aid when
Napoleon Ill. was trying to induce
Great Britain to recognize the confed-
eracy. 1t is pointed out. however, that
though these views may have largely in
tluenced the senators in the ratification
of the treaty and though some idea OF
the same kind may well have been
present in the minds of the high con-
5racting powers, there is considerable
space separating the renewal of friendly
sentiments from the negotiation of an
and defensive alliance.

AS yet no official announcement has
been made regarding one of the porto.

places in the cabinet. 1t is practically
settled, however, that Walter @. Gres-

TO SAVE INTEREST.
The Object of sherman's Specie Resump-

The Object of sherman's Specie Resump-
tion Resolution.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.-Senator Sher.
man was asked this afternoon ii the
resolution he introduced yesterday
authorizing the government to sell per
cent five-year bonds to maintain specie
resumption, had any especial signif-
cance. 1.-THE legislation sought to be
accomplished, said Sherman, "has no
object except saving money to the gem
eral government. The resumption act
took place at time when we could not
borrow money at less than 4 per cent,
and it was thought to be a
very successful operation when l,
as secretary of the treasury, was
able to float bonds at those figures.
But when the funding act was passed no
one thought we could issue our bonds at
3 per cent, and the object of this amend
ment is to authorize the secretary to is
sue bonds at per cent, if he finds it
necessary to do SO. 1t simply saves the
government per cent interest, and linn
its the bonds to five years."
Mr.. Sherman, in q general conversa-
ton, indicated that it would be exceed
inely bad policy for the United States
to Issue long term bonds at such rates
OF interest as that approved in the re-
demption act, simply to tide over
what he and everybody else believed to
be temporary exigency.
Sherman declined to say whether he
thought it would become necessary to
issue any bonds, though he did not con-
ceal the fact that he believed it desir-
able to arm the treasury department
with the power provided by the amend
ment.
Mr.. Sherman intends to have the
referred to the committee
on finance OF which he is chairman, and
will probably be reported back to the
senate at an early day. Mr.. Sherman
could not say what action the committee
would take nor when it would report
the amendment.
In view of the fact that leading
Democratic senators and Carlisle, the in
coming secretary of the treasury, have
oeen in conference with Foster, and |
Fosters views concurred in by Carlisle,
here is reason to believe that the pro-
POSED amendment will be favorably
Icted upon, although the issue of bonds,
issued at all, will be postponed as
ong as possible.

WASHINGTON, Feb. l2.-Only one of
the annual appropriation bills-the
army bill-has become law and from
this time on until the 4th of March both
houses of congress will bend every
energy to the completion of the re-
msinder of the important measures.
For this reason it is uncertain wheteer
the senate will be be able to carry out
the programme of legislation, short as
it is, arranged by the Republican eau
Gus. The Nicaragua canal bill is un
finished business, but must give way to
appropriation bills and conference re
ports. Next on the caucus programme
is the omnibus statehood bill. The
leaders OF the house don't see anything
ahead between now and the 4th OF
March to cause trouble, except appro
priation bills and the anti-option bill.
