6ynopsis of the Authoritiss' Report
for May.
DR.. J. r. Lame, secretary of the state
board of health, has issued his report for
May, from which the following extracts
are taken:
Reports from 70 cities, towns, viii
lagos and sanitary districts. aggregating
population OF 772 ,023, show a mortal
ity OF 972-a death rate OF 1.26 per 1000
for May, or b. per 1000 per annum.
There we're 1853 deaths from consump-
ton, rs from pneumonia, 81 from bron-
chitls, 8 from congestion of the lungs, 6
from diRrrhea, IL from cholera infant
UNI, GO from other diseases of the stom
ach and bowels, 13 from diphtherIa, 6
from Group, 3 from scRrlatina, from
meesles, 2 from smallpox, from whoop-
ing cough, 10 from typhoid fever, from
malarial fever, 5 from cerebro-spinal
fever, IS from cancer, from erysipelas,
n from diseases of the heart, 8 from
alcoholism, 424 from other causes, 3 of
which were from la grippe and l from
leprosy.
As will be seen above, Alturas and
Cedsrvills each had death from small-
pox. The epide mic is under control at
those points, however, the people hav-
ing been quite generally vaccnated. DR..
A. Gibson writes from Oedarville, that
80 miles from that place. in Goose Lake
valley, there are 80 cases, with two
deaths. He says that it has been called
chickenpox, the people fearing injury to
their business if the truth we're told. Ii
it could be generally understood that
thorough vaccination was the only re-
liable safeguard, such mendaclous ex-
pedients would be more rare. 1t is bet
ter in every way to make no secret oil
the presence OF smallpox, but to pro-
coed at once to stamp it out BY isolation
of the sick and successful vaccination
OF the we'll persons in any locality. Any
other method of procedure in dealing
with smallpox will end in confusion and
discontinue, as the secret cannot be
kept any longer than enough time to
enable the pestilence to get a Roadway,
as difficult OF control as a conhagration.
Reports from 46 localities outside oil
the larger cities and towns give forty
cases of pneumonia, 100 OF bronchitis,
26 of pleurisy, Of congestion of the
lungs, III OF diarrhea. "A OF dysentery,
"a OF cholera morbus, "a of cholera in

Marshal Covarrubias began the work
OF commitment in very systematic
manner. He appointed special deputies
to take the men to the various county
iails throughout the district, who placed
themselves in readiness at once. The
marshal and deputies repaired to the
county jail to begin the work of trans
terring go men to the jails at Fresno,
Tulare and Bakersfield.
Just before the officers arrived at the
Jail, and after the men had partaken OF
"supper," preparatory to departing, the
Industrials sang several hymns in a
good, clear voice. To one who knows
the real conditions and the varied cir
cumstances which forced the men into
their unfortunate state, the scene was
calculated to bring out sympathy for the
imprisoned men. They were led in sing
ing by their glee club, aud their last
song, composed by one of the prisoners,
was this

TERRIBLY DESTRUCTIVE.
The Krag-Jorgensen Rifles superiorit
as as Agency OF Death.

The Krag-Jorgensen Rifles Superiority
Agency OF Death.
WARRINGTON, Oct. When the war
department. decided to abandon the old
heavy oalibre Springfield rife, and arm
the troops with the Krag-J orgensen
small calibrs repeating rifle, it was pre-
dicted by the adherents of the old article
that the new weapon would disappoint
its friends in its lack of destructive
power. This prediction has been dis
proved by experiments made by the
medical staff OF the German army. and
repeated by our bureau of military in
formation.
The terribly destructive effects OF the
new weapon appear strikingly set out in
the official report. 1t is said the wounds
inflicted by the small bore bullet. not.
withstanding it's small size, are highly
destructive. owing to it's enormous
speed of rotation, which causes the tis-
sues struck to be torn within radius
OF four inches. The report says;
"Up to $50 yards bullet striking the
neck or abdomen means death; from
660 to 1900 yards. most serious and in
many cases fatal results are certain to
bo luulCtous DOgOAd 1OOO yhfue tuo iu-
juries caused resemble those inflicted by
the round bullets which were used be-
fore 1S60."
Our army officers felt they had pro-
greased TO the line of safe practice when
they adopted cslibre of 1852 millime-
tres. or % of an inch, for their rifles in
1892, and they were disposed to criticise
the navy department. when it went be-
yond them and still further reduced the
calibre of their rifles millimetres, or
.236 of eE inch, only trfie larger than
% pocket pistol. But now in the last
report they concede that the tendency
OF the best authorities seema to be
towards still smaller oalibre, some
professional men asserting that the
calibre should never be larger than 6.5
milimetres. One result of the reduction
OF calibre is shown by the new navy rife,
which will shoot point blank up to 725
yards. This means that at any distance
within two-ffths of a mile, the men can
shoot accurately without allowance for
the dropping of the bullet. and are thus
relieved from the necessity of adjusting
their sights for each range.

about three miles south of Bristol.

LONDON, Oct. 7.-During the past week
the money market relapsed into leth-

The prospectus of q new Roumanani
loan of 100000 has been issued. Be-

Austria and Spain are likely to issue
loans. If they are issued the money
rates in London will be raised.
The eansrd relative to an Anglo-French
dispute had serious effect upon the
market here. Many weak speculators
were shaken out, but wary operators,
knowing the source of the scare, took
advantage of it to reap rich harvest.
European bourses were less affected
than London. The continental oper-
ators, knowing the rumors were un-
founded, bought freely in London.
The position of the market was
strengthened by the elimination of
weak operators, but much nervousness
remains on account of the Chinese
Japanese war. the illness OF the czar
and the political situation in Europe.

BRAZILIAN BOUNDARY DISPUTE.
President Cleveland the Arbi-

His Decision Expected to Be Rend-

ExsmiHs-A Difficult

By the Associated Press
WASHINGTON, Oct. 7.-President Cleve-
land is expected to give hia decision as
arbitrator of the important boundary
dispute between Brazil and Argentine
soon after his return from Buzzards Bay.
Baron Rio Branco, special envoy from
Brazil. accompanied by large suite. is
now here. awaiting the decision. The
case has been in Mr.. Clevelsnd's hands
eight months, and as the treaty OF ar
bitration provides that the decision
must be made within year, it is being
looked for any day. The time for the
decision expires February 1st next, but
as Mr.. Cleveland will be busy with con-
grsss and public sffsira after his return,
he 10 expected to dispose OF the arbitra-
tion question before taking up domestic
affairs. 1t is understood he has made
the arbitration his special study during
working hours at Buzzards Bsy this
summer. 1t is very complicated case,
the brief of Baron Rio Brsnco filling
several large volumes, while the maps,
old treaties, etc., and the briefs of DR..
Zebsllos, the Argentine minister, make
fair-sized library.
Mr.. Cleveland has not turned this
mess OF documents over to the state de-
partment, but has undertaken person
ally to go through it and unravel the
dispute. It 10 self-imposed task which
the president does out of courtesy to the
southern republics, and in the extent OF
interests involved and legal complloa-
tions, IL is as large as any case pending
inithe United States supreme court.
Cleveland's decision will settle whether
the eastern boundary of Eastern Argen-
tine remains as usually given in the
maps, or is extended by wedge-shaped
projection almost to the Atlantic coast.
Ii Argentine gains this strip, it will have
q considerable effect on Southern Brazil
as it will almost sever the great state of
Rio Grande de Sui from Upper Brazil,
the remaining connection being very
narrow isthmus com pared with the gen.
eral width of Brazil. On the other
hand, it will give Argentine narrow
arm of land stretching from the north to
within 40 leagues OF the Atlantic.
Mr.. Olevelsad's decision is awaited
with great interest by the southern en-
voys, as it means much to the strategetic
strength of the two dominant South
American countries. Moreover, the
disputed territory is valued for its min
eral and agricultural resources. 1t en-
braces II, 1882 square miles with towns
and Nillages having a population of
5,793, most of them Brazilians.
Mr.. Cleveland's arbitration is the re-
suit of the treaty made when Dom Pedro
was emperor of Brazil. 1t has taken
since then to make the surveys and pre-
sent the case. and Mr.. Clevelsnd's de-
cision will close the long controversy.
Ho is obliged, under the treaty, to give
all the disputed territory to Brazil or to
Argentine, 30 that there is no oppor-
tunity for a compromise, and will satisfy
both parties.
