SMALLPOX.
THE DREAD DISEASE BREAKS
OUT IN NEW PLACES.
4 Suspicious Case Developes al
Palmyra-Identity of the Portage
Victim Discovered.

Portage. Wis. March lit has been
learned that the tramp who died with
smallpox at the pest-hOuse was John
Hennesy. and that his birthplace and
home were in Wisconsin. He was only
IS or 10 years old, and evidently be-
lOnged to a good family, as he was
well educated, polite and neatly
dressed He declared to the very last
that he would not have his family
to die. No other cases developed at
the Jail and the strict quarantine that
has been so long maintained at the
county jail was dispensed with yester-
day. Those whose sentences had eX-
Dired were discharged, and a number
Of new prisoners who had been
quartered in the police station We're
removed to the county Jail.
Gree Bay, Wis, March 1.-AnotheI
case of smallpox has developed in Fort
Howard, the victim being the infant
child of Dr.. A. w. Slaughter, who
has been in charge Of smallpox pa
j tents since the disease made its ap.
pearance. The child, mother and Dr.
Slaughter are now at the sanitarium
where the first case occurred. The
mother was successfully vaccinated and
10 fears are entertained for her or the
further spread of the disease. All the
other patients are cOnvalescent.
Palmyra. Wis, March 1.-What is
feared to be genuine case Of smallpox
has broken out in the butcher family
at Pleasant Valley, four miles from this
place. The victim is a brother of Fred
butcher, the Jefferson Jail victim. 1t
appears that several members Of the
family visited him when he was first
taken sick The health officer here al
once caused them to be vaccinated SC
there is Il chance that young butcher S
case may be an extreme type of varlo'
loid. The butcher household is under
quarantine.

grasped Corbett by the hand and whis-
pered CALCULATIONS.
The proceedings leading up to the
verdict were very tame. The attorneys
for the prosecution tried to elicit tes-
timony to show that the fight was
brutal and to make the witnesses admit
that from the very brutality of the con-
test Corbett and Mitchell must have
harbored malice against one another.
The state, however, did not make much
Roadway on this line, and then it at
tempted to bring in the check for $780,
900 which Corbett received in public
after the fight All the witnesses had
seen piece of paper handed Corbett,
but all We're innocent of any knowledge
Of its character.
The impression here is that the whole
thing has been farce. The sports feel
jubilant over the outcome, and mem
bers of the Duval club say they pro-
pose to pull off the Corbett-J ackson
mill here.
Attorney General Lamar says he will
dismiss all the other cases

Yellow fever in Rio Janeiro is daily
becoming worse.
The elections passed off quietly. No
official returns have yet been received,

president. Prudente de MOras, who it
is thought has been elected to succeed
President PeiXoto, is an excellent
lawyer and about so years of age. He
was known, even during the empire,
as an ardent republican. He is
wealthy. He is now president of the
senate.
Placards were posted Wednesday.

TARIFF BILL is RID OF MOST
ALL OBJECTIONS.
Disag reement Regarding Sugar Respon
sible for ALI Delay Now-Carisle in
Consulta ton.

Washington, March 5.-The Wilson
tariff bill was subject to earnest con
Sultation among the senators today
It has reached a certain stage of com.
pleteness and it is generally understood
that if a definite agreement could be
reached on sugar it would then be pos
sibe to agree upon everything else.
1t is understood that the demands
made by democratic senators who op-
posed the bill in the form in which it
was first presented have been met and
tentatively agreed upon; but even these
agreements are subject to the approval
of the treasury department. Secretary
Carlisle has been with the committee
most Of the day and again this evening
to discuss and compare the changes.
The difficulties surrounding the agree
ment upon sugar are the greatest the
tariff makers have to contend with. 1t
appears also that a proposition for an
increased tax on whisky Is mixed up
with the proposed duty on sugar. If
the latter is agreed to the necessity for
an increased whisky tax disappears.
1t is understood that the committee
has also been giving attention to the
tobacco schedule in the. internal rev
enue bill during the day.
