Business and Railway Tracfic Resumes
Normal Conditions Once Mere.
Guarantees Lifted.

At IL o'clock Tuesday only one new
case aud two deaths from yellow fever
were reported from the New Orleans
board of health. All interest in the
fever has about died out. The news
papers are paying but little attention
to it, combining themselves to simply
the official bulletins.
In all the infected points the same
dimunition of the disease is reported
and IL is expected that the next cold
spell will wipe out the pestilence en-
tirely. Tuesday was bleak and cold.
Prospects for real cold spell are ex-
ccllent, in anticipation of which the
merchants throughout the city are
pr ,paring for rush of business.
Abe Montgomery board reports one
new case Tuesday in the suburbs.
None in the city and no deaths. Total

A Washington special says; A crank
appeared Mt the white house Tuesday
and demanded to sec President Nc.
Kinley. He said the president had
not treated him right. He was so per-
sistsnt that the police were ordered to
arrest him. At police headquarters
he said his name was Henry Rocket,
of 1241 Fourth street, Southwest.
There is no such name and address in
the city directory.
The full text Of SPANS reply to the
Woodford note was read at the cabinet
meeting Tuesday. It's tone was very
pacific, instead of being at all warlike,
was regarded by the cabinet as very
satisfactory, and as calculated to allay
any fear of q hostile outbreak.
The cabinet also gave consideration
to the ice-bound Bering Sea whaling

upon, one to send the Bear, from Seat

There is free-and-easy assumption
that modern journalism, SO called, is
responsible for the rush to the Klon-
dixie. Those who make this curious
blunder seem TO be quite unaware Of
she fact that there was rush to the
gold fields Of California nearly fifty
years ago, by the side Of which that
TO Alaska sinks into insignifcance.
Nor must IL be forgotten that in l849
and 1850 California was as much an
unknown land as Alaska is to-day,
and that every argonaut Of those days
understood that he was going forth
TO encounter great dangers. The new
Journalism had not yet made its APP
pearance, but the stampede occurred
all the same, just as it would have
done in 1897 il the newspapers had
been content to print short items de-
failing the facts.

, The New York Observer believes
sit will be satisfaction to Christian
people to note that the famous strike
Of the laborers employed by Lord
Penrhyn in his large slate-quarries
has now ut last been settled, and that
his lordship has admitted the right OF
the employees as local body to adopt
NJ their own the grievances of On in
diyidual workman or class Of workmen.
This last point is not, We rejoice to
feel, longer an open question in
America. Lord Penrhyn has yielded
his old world ideas very reluctantly
on this issue; nor is it clear. indeed,
that he has yet gone so far as to deal
directly with outside trades union
officials. This unfortunate Penrhyn
controversy, which has been carried
on for nearly year, has inflicted
severe loss on his lordship and great
,priyation and suffering on his men.
The latter have all along received
lmuch moral and financial support
from outsiders. OF the whole body OF
che House of Commons, only two
members have ventured to defend
Lord Penrhyn in his arbitrary course,
Who, as an English journal remarks
has tried to manage q great industry
under the forms and spirit Of feudal
ism. The experiment has cost him
nm his own admission, something like
$500, 900, and it has failed. 1t is mo-
likely to be repeated. '"
