Gascogne.
Cannot Reach sable Island.

HALIFAX, \. s., Feb. 10-A correspond
ent has been investigating rumor in cir
culation here to-day to the effect that the
French liner La Gascogne has been seen in
the vicinity of Sable island, and that the
government had determined to investigate
the story, and would send a steamer to the
island for that purpose. The rumor start
ed here this morning, but the source can
not be traced, and it is not believed any
credence should be put in ii. Sable island
can only be reached at the greatest possi-
bic risk at this time of the year, If at all.
Such news might come by carrier pigeons,
but none has arrived here, and it is as
serted that none would be let fly in such
weather as prevailed last week. The only
other way to send out such news would be
by signaling a passing vessel, and that can
only be done in fine weather, and even then
none would knowingly be close enough to
be signaied. The only available steamer
here to go, in case went. would be the
government steamer Newfled. and she is
not at present in port. She would have to
return and outfit. 1t is further asserted
that no vessel here could go to Sable ISL
and. unless it was some steamer out of
commission, and it would have to be out
fitted. This would take a couple of days.
The island is about 175 miles from Halifax,
and it might take several days to effect a
landing

Rob DIR. Jenner of His HOnors.

ST LOUIS, Feb. 10.-Since the appear
ance of smallpox two weeks ago expert
ments have been made secretly at quaran-
tine to manufacture an effective smallpox
serum that will obtain the same results in
it's branch that anti-toxin has for diph-
liberia. The experiments are under the di-
rection of Health Commissioner Homan and
DR. A. n Ravold, of the Washington Uni
versity. These two men have been mate
rally aided in their work by series of
tests made last December at the quaran-
tine station of New York by DR.. Elliot. On
the basis of these experiments DIR. Ravold
at once set to work two weeks ago and
yaccinated a strong healthy heifer with
sbacilM taken from a smallpox patient After
the animal had sufficiently recovered he
took some of its blood and extracted from
ii the serum. The first actual tests were
made only three or four days ago. so that
the results. whether favorable or otherwise
cannot be learned.

BOSTON, Feb. 10.-No tidings of La Gas
cogne We're brought by the steamers which
arrived at this port to-day. Several ocean
liners pushed their way from quarantine
during the day, among them being the
Kolpano, of the Sanderson line, from Hull;
the Sachem, of the Warren line, from Liv-
erpool and the Boston, from Yarmouth, N.
S. The Johnston liner Akaba and the Pom
meranian, of the Allan line, which arrived
off Quarantine last night, also came up to
the harbor to-day. Each vessel was board
ed at quarantine by a reporter, who ques-
toned the officers for possible news from
La Gascogne, but no sign of the missing
steamer had been seen. All officers re-
ported that they had had rough trips and
unusually heavy weather and seemed to be
of the opinion that La Gascogne's delayed
arrival is due to these causes.
