THE MAD poe scARE.
An Incident showing II Is Largely in
the Imagination.

Capt J. P. White related an incident
10 a representative OF the Morning News
yesterday which goes far to prove that a
great deal Of the mad dog business. Of
which reports are so frequent. is largely
il the Imagination.
some time ago DR.. ". T. Mcconnell
OF NARROW had son bitten by a pet dog.
which acted in the manner in which mad
dogs are reported TO act. Dr. McCon-
nsll Was satisfied that the dog was mad
ard came to Savannah 20 consult with
physicians here upon the advisablity Of
sending his son TO the Pasteur institute
in New York. One physician advised him
before going further 10 see Capt. White
and get his opinion as to whether the dog
was really mad. He did so.
Capt. White gave il as his positive, Opin-
ion. after having been given an account
OF the manner 10 which the dog had act
ed that the dog was not mad. He told
DIT, Mcconnell TO go home, kill the dog,
and dissect II, and that he would then be
sure 10 find that the dogs stomach was
sn an infamed state, but the brain would
DO found all right which would disprove
-he idea of rabies. DR.. Mcconnell
promised 10 take Capt Whites advice.
After going home. however, he conclu-
ded that if the dog was only suffering
with stomach trouble he could disprove
the theory OF rabies equally well BY cur
ing him UP.
He attempted to give the dog dose OF
oil but while doing so the dog died He
then dissected the dog and found the stom-
ach congested and the entrails infamed.
The brain was found TO be in a healthy and
normal condition as Capt. White had
predicted would be the case. Dr. McCon-
nell was very much delighted with the re-
suit of his Investigations, as he felt con-
WINGED that the dog had not been suffering
with rabies and he no longer felt under
the necessity Of sending his son to the in
stitute.
DR.. Mcconnell was in the city this week
and Informed Capt. White of the manner
In which he had followed his advice and
the results. His son, he said, was per-
fectly we'll and had never shown the slight
est indications Of rabies.
Capt White is satisfied that the dog
which bit Julian V. Daden several months
ago, on which account baden underwent
d course of treatment at the Pasteur in
stitute, was not suffering with rabies.
Though two or three other persons besides
Daden were bitten by the dog and did not
undergo any special treatment, nothing
further has been heard Of any ill-results
them.

MALARIA FROM BILBO.
Deaths of Mrs. Granger and Her
Daughter From MaInrial Fever.

Deaths of Mrs. Granger and Her
Daughter From MaInriaI Fever.
Mrs. Louisa Granger died yesterday at
the Savannah hospital from malarial re-
yer. Her death followed close upon that
of her daughter, which occurred at the
home of the family on the Thunderbolt
road but couple of days ago.
The family has had some sad expert
ences since moving here from North Caro-
lima a short time ago. Mrs. Granger has
two grown sons. who are employed here
as firemen. She also had two daughters
and a younger son. They lived for some
time in house on the Thunderbolt road,
or rather on Wheaton street, Just the
other side of the point where the Sa-
vannah, Florida and Western railroad
crosses TO go to the wharVes. Just back
of these houses runs the Bilbo canal,
and at this time of the year it is not as
healthy as it might be.
1t is said at one time there were seven
people sick in the house in which the
Changers lived and all of them With ma
larial fever The eldest daughter was the
first to die, after which Mrs. Granger
and her young son and daughter were re-
moved to the Savannah hospital. 1t was
there that Mrs. Granger died yesterday.
The young son is still quite i'll from the
same disease, but there are hopes Of his
recovery. The younger daughter is getting
much better. The sickness of all these
people is attributed by the physicians to
The condition of the Bilho canal and it's
proximity to these houses. Mrs. Granger
VIII be buried to-day at Laurel Grove
Cemetery.

Washington. Sept 1.-THE treasury de-
partment is advised Of the arrival to-day
at Victoria. b. c., of the steamship EN-
press of China, having on board zoo Chi
namen, who 1t is alleged, are on the
way TO the Atlanta (Ga.) exposition.
These Cinnamon, it is stated, will come
via the Canadian Pacific railroad and in
tend to enter the United States at Og-
densburg, N. Y, and thence proceed TO
Atlanta, where they alleged they are to
be employed by exhibitors Of Chinese goods
and wares.
Under the act of congress authorizing
the Atlanta exhibition, II is provided that
the Chinese restriction act shall not be
construed to prevent any foreign exhibitor
at the Cotton States and International
Exposition Company Of Atlanta, Ca, from
bringing into the United States under
contract such mechanics, or natives as
they may deem necessary for installing
or conducting their exhibits.
Treasury officials anticipate that under
this liberal provision of the law, many Chi
nese with no connection with the Atlanta
exposition, either present or prospective
will attempt TO enter this country, and to
prevent fraud instructions have been sent
to observe extra precautions in examin-
ing all Chinese who present themselves
for admission.
In the special case of the Cinnamon on
the Empress of China, telegraphic and
written instructions were to-day sent to
the collector Of customs at Ogdensburg,
N. Y. He is directed to see that the China
men presenting themselves at that port
for admission, are beyond all question Of
doubt what they represent themselves 10
be, viz, employees of exhibitors at the At
lanta exposition Unless this Is proved to
the entire satisfaction of the collector he
is instructed TO deny them admittance to
