No Danger In New York.

New York. Sept. S.-Several officials
OF the board of health Of this city were
asked about the chances Of yellow fever
getting into this port. some persons
having thought that the epidemic in
Mississippi might possibly be brought
10 New York by train or ship
President Wilson said there was not
the slightest danger Of the fever com
ing here.
THE health department" said he,
"will not take any special steps In the
matter. because the department is al
ways prepared 10 stamp out disease az
soon as ii makes its appearance. and
facilities are always at hand for that
purpose.
Cases OF yellow fever have been so
infrequent I'm the past 20 years that II
would take considerable time and trou-
Bile TO hunt up the records"
DR.. Benedict. chief of the bureau OF
contagious diseases, said that the disin-
fectng methods Of the health depart
ment give no chance for yellow fever 10
get into the city.
DIR. Tracy of the bureau of records
Of the health department said that in
1875 there was an epidemic Of yellow
fever in this city. during which IA
deaths occurred. He stated that a large
proportion was among the negroes
slaves and freedmen. There was anoth-
er, he said in 1922. At that time 16(
deaths were registered.
There has been no epidemic" said
Dr. Tracy. "since that time. All cases
of yellow fever discovered in New York
have been contracted outside the city
and brought in on a steamer. No sec
ond case ever occurred since the cpl.
demic from infection in the city The
fever does not propagate in climates
with temperatures below 60 degrees

hundreds, many Of whom have been

way easy for me at the lake in securing
a boat, etc. So I feel comfortably sure
of going right through.
"The mail facilities are very bad here.

made any allowance for the rapid
growth Of postal business. The postal
authorities here are powerless to cope
with the mass of mail matter, and 1

Washington. Sept. S.--The genera
government win render all assistance
in its power 10 check the spread of vel
low fever This will be done mainly
through the agency of the Marine hos
pital service. DR. Walter Wyman, the
head OF the bureau. has returned to the

recting the work Of assisting the state
officials of Mississippi in their efforts &c
coniine the disease to the locality where
II appears TO have started. DR. Wymar
says that as yet he has no opinion &c
express whether the disease Is really
yellow fever although he admits II
looks very suspicious. The precaution-
ary measures he has taken are based
entirely on the declaration OF the state
board of health of Louisiana in the Gel
pi case which was that the disease
from which the person had died was
yellow fever DR.. Wyman says the sit
uation at Ocean Springs Is entirely In
the hands Of the state board of health
The Marine hospital bureau Is doing ev-
erything possible to assist. DIR. Wy
man has wired the physician IN charge
at Ocean Springs a copy Of the treasury
regulations relating to the prevention
Of the spread of epidemic diseases from
one state TO another. These regulations
prescribe the manner OF surveillance to
be established over railroad trains com
ing from the infected district and give
rules for the isolation OF infected pas
sengers and the disinfection of their
baggage. DR.. Guiteras, the we'll known
expert in yellow fever. who was re-
quested to go TO Ocean Springs by DR..
Wyman, is there now. His opinion on
the disease is awaited with interest by
the bureau officials.
The Marine hospital service has am
pie camp material and equipage on
hand. The splendid outfit which has
been at Gainesville. Ca, has been
started on a train for the vicinity OF
Ocean Springs. II will be taken &c
within 30 or 40 miles of the place and

TIME TO sslzE EGYPT.
Thus Speaks Prince Bismarck with Ref
erence to France.

erence TO france.
Paris. Sept. S.-The French press IS
still greatly exercised over the effect
the Franco Russian alliance will have
upon European politics.
Prince Bismarck, in an interview. a
report Of which was published In The
Gaulois yesterday, admitted that the
time was propitious for the snatching
of Egypt and the Suez canal from Eng
land, but said he did not believe that
Frenchmen have any passionate inter-
est in that question. adding:
Perhaps they are right to wait for
us Germans to become still more deep
ly involved in our foreign policy, for
now we have neither leadership nor
Notwithstanding whatever. Every
one is cropping about, and the treasures
of influence 1 labored TO accumulate are
being prohtessly squandered.'
The Soleil, in an important article
draws a contrast between the dreibund
and the Russo French alliance. Ger
many and Austria. the paper says. have
no claim to each others aid unless at
tackled simultaneously by two adversa-
ries. while the Russo French alliance
imposes the obligation to assist if Ell
ther is attacked by a single enemy.
The implication of this contrast is
that in the event of the outbreak OF
war hostilties would inevitably be-
come universal. because under the pres
ent circumstances a war between
France and Germany would be bound
TO bring Russia into the field, thus pro-
viding a basis for Austria and Italy 90
Join in the conflict under the provisions
Of the dreibund.
