FILTH And DISEASE.
Terrible MiStreatment of Passengers
of the Southwark.
$3.50 STEERAGE PASSENGERS
Held in a Quarantine Station and
Fed on Victuals Unfit for Dos
to Eat Clean Food Conf1scated
by the Management = First
Class Passengers Permitted to
Leave.

CHESTER. PA, December 25.-The
$50 steerage passengers Of the steamer
Southwark, which was recently de-
tanned of this city on account OF the
death of passenger from smallpox are
confined at the quarantine station there
in the most absolute filth and pri-
walton. In an interview to-day, one OF
the passengers said that the petition
complaining OF the food was signed By
$50 Of them, but the officials in charge
suppressed IL. II is declared that the
food is not fit 10 serve TO dogs.
To receive 1t, the prisoners are
compelled TO stand In line In the
open air. One man VINO has money
sent out yesterday and boughtS27 worth
OF clean food for the mothers with small
children, but the goods were conhscated
because they had not come through the
managers. A policeman on duty at the
station said that he would resign be-
cause he could not see little children
starve to death.
The entire camp is In the fl,hiest
condition possible, and IL ls asserted
that no soap, water or towels nave
been provided since the landing.
Many disgusting details are related,
and the people Of the city, fearing dis
ease, will lay the whole matter before
the Chester Board OF Health tomorrow
and demand immediate action.
The cabin passengers were allowed
to pass up the river, and this distinc-
tion is complained OF by the passen'
gers. A number of Philadephlaus,
who have wives and children in the
colony. have been driven away. upon
attempting TO see them.

ment For the past week Minister
Terrell, acting under the pressure OF the

have shown that he felt little
confidence % asuccessful outcome. The
reluctance OF the Turkish governments
20 accede 10 his request is accounted
for by the formidable proportions TO
hich the agitation In the United States
In favor OF intercessIon on behalf OF
the Armsnians in Turkey has
attained. At first the Porte was
under the impression, probably hav-
ing in view the outcome OF
previous Investigations into alleged
outrages by the Turks upon Christian
subjects, that the United States was 20
favorably inclined towards their side
that the result OF such an Inquiry ss
proposed would not be harmful. The
Intensity OF feeling displayed 10 the
various mass meetings aud church
assemblies In the United States have
convinced the Porte that IL would be
placing It's interests In dangerous haHds.
and when IL learned that the person
chosen 10 make the Inquiry was the son
- an American missionary and native
OF the very country where the outrages
are alleged to have occurred, prompt
negaiivel was returned 10 Mr.
Terrers request. 1t does not
appear that there is any way OF
going behind thIs decision, for
Mr.. Jevett being refused permission TO

o'clock in the morning the people of
Hermcsa assembled at the grove of
cotton woods which surrounds the
residence of Mr. and Mrs. Wheeler to
enjoy a picnic with speeches and reel
tations. The grove had been prepared
beforehand with seats, tables, swings
and other means of enjoyment and de-
corted with flags by Messrs. Slater and
Eckleberger acting as a committee of
arrangements with Mr.. and Mrs.

A. M. Story. Gilbert Harris and Joe

Kingston showed a full hand on the
fourth. The barbecue furnished a good

body got plenty.
The Log Cabin mine in Terra Blanca
has some very high grade ore in sight
and Messrs. Sly and johnson expect
to make a shipment soon.
The leasers on the Calamity Jane
mine have a good thing. They are
making money fast enough to make
any body feel good these hard times.
Some very rich oxidized ore is found
IN punches IN the Ell Orc mine. A
small piece weighing about a quarter
of a pound yielded quite a quantity of
the yellow stuff. estimates placed the
value per ton at owe $l5OO.00.
Hillsboro celebrated quite a little on
the evening of the fifth. Whether the
merchants sold noise cheap or some
had not worked off their patriotism
enough the day before, the rockets,
fire crackers and bombs kept going
lively for a time.
