Yellow Fever Plague In the South
Closely Watched.
SUFFERING sure TO FOLLOW.
Ocean Springs Absolutely Cut on from the
World Except by Mall and Wlre--No
Exodus from New Orleans
Strict Measures Taken.

NEW ORLEANS, Sept s. = Night
fell on New Orleans without q single
case Of yellow fever having been re.
ported to the state board OF health.
But one imported case has thus far
been developed here, and death has
wiped that out The board OF health,
through its president, DIR. Oliphant,
declared that in spite Of all reports
to the contrary, not one OF the many
who had come here from Ocean Springs
had been stricken with the dis.
ease. At the Gelpi residence, where
the first and fatal case was reported,
the place was thoroughly fumigated
with sulphur, and 1t is believed every
lingering germ therein has been killed
The four inmates, two servants and
The mother and brother of the boy,
are absolutely quarantined. No one
is permitted to either enter or leave
the house, which will be in charge of
the board for five days. Physicians
are promptly reporting cases of fever
that come under their observation.
A complete inspection camp has been
organized at the Rigolets, through
which an entrance is made to the city.
No doubtful case will be allowed to
come in. Inspectors have been sent to
all the gulf coast points to make full
and thorough examination Of their
health ind sanitary conditions. DR..
Gill, who made his first stop at Bay st.
Louis, reported that town thoroughly
healthy, with no semblance of
yellow jack. There seems to be no
threatened exodus from the city. All
but one road reports business outgo-
ing as normal. The Northeastern
officials said they were carrying a
somewhat heavier consignment OF pas
seDgers than ordinarily, and attributed
the increase to the natural fear Of un-
acclimated strangers
Only one additional death has been
reported at Ocean Springs with symp-
toms of yellow fever, mulatto. No
new cases had been reported during
the afternoon. Ocean Springs has
now been absolutely cut off from the
outside world, and the only means Of
reaching the town are by wire or mail
The telegraph operator there is we'll
nigh worked to death.
Serious suffering is certain to follow.
1t was said there was only one ton Of
Ice In the town, and there was no way
to get more. Ice is necessary where
fever RACES. Physicians ut the Springs
get but little rest, and it is not certain
that the medical supplies will not soon
be exhausted, but in the course of
day or two means will be found where
by relief will be supplied,

Uncle SANS secret service Hureau Has .
surfeit OF Bogus Money Cases.
WASHINGTON, Sept. S.-Tbe United
States secret service bureau Is strug-
Cling with an epidemic Of counterfeits.
Hardly day passes without the arrest
Of from one to half dozen persons de-
tected in passing spurious notes or sill
yer coin. 1t Is evident that there Is a
large volume Of counterfeit silver GER
tificates OF last years issue afioat.
and that the circulation Is contin.
ually being diluted with that
sort OF material. When these GER
tifcates were first put out expert en-
gravers predicted that counterfeiters
would be tempted TO resume activ-
tiles and the result shows that they
were not wrong in their prophecy.
Government detectives have been in
structed TO be on the watch for an ava
lanche Of bogus silver dollars the tip
having been given the treasury depart
ment that move was being made for
the minting Of such dollars on large
scale, the coin to have the same
amount Of silver as the genuine, and
to be in exact similitude of the coin
bearing the stampof the United States
minis. Thus far the department has
not been able to locate any Of this
Illicit product, and it is not believed
that any of the bogus dollars Of that
sort are as yet in circulation, but
that is no guarantee that the country
may not at any time be flooded with
them.

a terrible roar the flames shot high
above the derrick. As soon as the
drillers saw the flames, several
climbed into the derrick to shut off
the gas, but they had hardly gotten
there when there was q terrific ex-
plosion. The National Supply
Co.'S building was completely de.
molished and nothing remains
but a big hole where the wagons
stood. There is not whole pane Of
glass in any window in the town, and
every house and store was shaken to

element over the affair, and all the
remaining population of the town
rushed to the scene. Who the men are
who were in the derrick and who were
killed cannot be learned now, owing
to the excitement. Many bystanders
were wounded.

CHICAGO, Sept. s.-Two strong points
