NO SPECIFIC RESULTS.
DIsCONIENT AMONG DELEGATES TO
THE HEALTH CONFERENCE.
Resolutions by the Sanitary Council Much
More Definite and Sweeping Than
Those Adopted by tho State Board

NEW YORK, April 1T was evident
from the beginning that all was not har-
mony among the delegates TO the National
Conference OF State Boards OF Health.
The discomfort eliminated this morning
in an important meeting Of the Sanitary
Council Of the Mississippi Valley. The
meeting grew out of the feeling that the
National Conference attempted to unite
interests too various, and to harmonize
too many conflicting authorities to lead
TO any results sufficiently specific to bs
of any value.
The territory embraced within the juris-
diction of the council includes fifteen
States and takes in the country between
Minnesota and Louisiana on the north
and south, and Iowa and Eastern Penn
sylvania on the east and west.
Twelve OF the fifteen representa-
other three States being repre-
sented by proxies Resolutions vera
passed Of "A much more definite and sweep
ing character than those adopted by the
conference OF the state boards
one OF these resolutions grows out OF
the recent reports of the recrudescence
Of cholera i'm Russia and requires that
the surgeOn-general OF the Marine Hos
pital Service make thorough investigation
of the matter. particularly I'm Russia,
and il the facts seem 20 justify IT, that the
case be laid before the authorities In
Washington. and the President TO be
asked to prohibit immigration. either In
whole or in part under section OF tho
new quarantine laws.
Another resolution calls upon the Ma
rine Hospital Service To institute a sys-
tenn Of sanitary inspection OF trade and
traffic I'm the States represented I'm the
council, this inspection TO be kept up
from year TO year during such period
as may be found necessary. Still an
other resolution calls on the Marine Hos
pital Service to institute a system OF
immigrant inspection on the lines Of tho
similar service I'm 1883. and under tho
provisions OF section of the new quar-
antne law.
After the adoption Of these resolutions
the council adjourned till o'clock, when
II was arranged 10 hold another meeting
prior to the final meeting of the Interna-
tional Conference.

The wind has i'm a great measure pros

that in remote sections there may have

The weather has suddenly turned op-

which tornadoes and cyclones generally

Along the lakes in lower Michigan also
there has been much loss of property.
Similar reports come from Nebraska.

The Navy Department received a letter

OF his being seriously i'll. nor did he ask
TO be relieved Of his command The de-

him from taking charge OF the review

who are now assisting Admiral Gherardi.

SENATE ADJOURNMENT.
1T IS THOUGHT IT WILL TIEE
PLACE NEXT WEDNESDAY,.
The President withdrsws the Nomination
of Mr. Townes, in Order to Makea
Clerical Correction-Otber News.

WASHINGTON. d. c., April 7-At the
White House 1t is thought that the Sen
ate will adjourn next week, probably
on Wednesday. limitations to this effect
have been given the President by several
Senators, but apparently without the
basis Of a general agreement in doing so.
1t is not likely that the Senate will ad-
journ before the President nominates the
Judges for the new Court Of Appeals Tor
the District of Columbia, as in that event
the District would be left in a crippled
condition judcially II, however. Mr..
Cleveland sends in the names of the new
Judges within a few days nothing will
stand in the way Of adjournment next
week. and he has been informed that this
is the status of the matter at present.
The President has Withdrawn the nomi-
nation OF William T. TOwnes TO be con-
sui at Rio de Janeiro. 1t Is unofiiclaily
ascertained that no significance attaches
to this action, and that it is taken SIM
ply to correct a clerical error. Mr..
Townes name should have been sent to
the Senate as Consul-General. and not
simply as consul. 1t will undoubtedly be
sent in again properly at an early day,
probably tomorrow.
Mr.. Townes is a resident Of Danville,
Va, and his nomination was recommend
ed by Virginia Congressman, who believed
II would foster Virginia tobacco inter-
ests i'm Brazil, where the Virginia tobac-
cos are now being used In the manutac-

Secretary Morton has concluded that
there are not only some useless officials
connected with the Agricultural Depart
ment, but also whole divisions that are
no longer deemed important. II Is un-
derstood that he viii shortly issue an
order abolishng the quarantine division,
| OF the department. the chief of which Is
Robert Blaine n brother Of the deceased
| statesman. The Secretary takes this
action on the ground that the work OF
| the division is not sufficient TO continue
| II longer. During the past year the I'M
portation OF cattle into the United States
| has greatly decreased. The work or
| this division hereafter will probably be
assigned to the Bureau Of Animal Indus
try.
The Treasury Department is in an
easier condition than il has been for sew
eral months past due largely 10 the IN
| creased receipts from customs W Nlth
this condition the tightness in gold has
somewhat disappeared. and where no gold
