Their Spirits RAISED.

Mobile, Ala. Sept. 27.-The report
for Monday has greatly raised the
spirits of the people here. They ae-
cept it as indicating that the efforts
to surround the disease and stamp il
out are meeting with success Three
new cases were reported at noon for
the previous "a hours. The only death
reported was that OF Florence Barlow,
aged 90 years. She was engaged to be
married next month. and during her
sickness her fiancee was not permit
ted to see her nor attend her funeral,
the regulations being so strict that
none outside the physicians, clergy and
undertakers may approach fever cases.
A summary of the situation is as
follows: Total cases to noon, "a; total
deaths, s; discharged. IS; remaining
under treatment. 90 The report sent
out Saturday night that there was fe-
yer reported at Blandon Springs and
Womock bill, in Choctaw county, Ala,
is denied on unimpeachabIe authority.
Traffic is resuning here With rapid
fty The steamboats, ara supplying the
people of nearby counties that have
modified their quarantine. None of the
business houses whether wholesale or
retail are closed and all are doing busi-
ness although several thousand of the
wel-to-do people have departed to es-
cape the fever.

London. Sept. 27-An announcement
was made this afternoon, confirming
the dispatches of the Associated Press
of Saturday last. The marquis Of
Salisbury has not withdrawn from the
Bering sea conference. but has simply
objected to the presence of Russia and
Japan. Negotiations on the subject
are proceeding. Great Britain is Will
ing to take part in the conference and
is endeavoring to secure the acquiesc-
ence of Canada The United States
ambassador, Colonel John Hay, and
the British ambassador to the United
States, Sir Julian Pauncefote. visited
the foreign office this afternoon. The
whole trouble seems to be due to the
failure of the marquis of Salisbury to
respond to Colonel Hays note of agree
ment to a meeting of experts in which
Colonel Hay stated that the president
had notified him that Japan and
Russian representatives would he
present. No exception being taken,
Colonel Hay supposed the matter was
settled until the action taken last
Wednesday when it was announced
that the marquis of Salisbury never
contemplated taking part in 8, confer
ence in which Russia and Japan were
represented. HdFing Always CuHleHuttt,
as shown in his dispatch of May 8,
that they have 10 locus standi. 1t is
also pointed out that the marquis Of
Saltsllury's letter of July 80 distinctly
says that Great Britain had agreed to
meeting Of British, Canadian and
American experts. The japanese min
lister here said TO a representative Of
the Associated Press today: While
no formal communications have passed
between Japan and England l have
discussed the arrangements for con-
ference with the foreign office officials"
It is a curious fact that Colonel
Hays dispatch OF July 20 is omitted
from the Boring sea blue book, just

to Say, Is Attributed to Warmer
Weather-Elsewhere

New Orleans, SEPT 27.-Warmer
weather in the past two or three days
has had the effect of increasing to some
extent the number of new cases of the
prevailing type OF yellow fever, but 1t
has equally had tae effect of sending
down the deaGh rate. There we're %
cases on Saturday. II yesterday, ami up
to $50 O'Clock today q cases. But there
were only two deaths Cn Saturday. none
on Sunday and two today. Present ex-
perienca, therefore, proves that warm
weather adds to the number of cases,
but reduces the mortality, While colder
weather diminisiheS the number of cases
and enlarges the death rate Physici-
ans and authorities tonight generally
agree G-at the situation is steadily i'm
proving. They believe the chances are
growing more remote every day of an
epidemic, and that there is little like
lahood that the disease VIII assume, be
