Sixty-four members OF the Irish parlia-

government to call a special meeting OF
parliament for the purpose OF relieving
the distress and providing against impend-

OF the treasury writes John Dillon. M. p.
that should the apprehensions of tho
memorlalists be unhappily realized the
exchoquer Is empowered to adopt the GUS
tomary measures without waiting for the
sanction OF parliament" and therefore
special session Is unnecessary. The "cus-

FRAUDULENT WARRANTS.

Over $50, 900 Said to Have Been Wrong
fully Paid Account Of the Creek In
dians.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 26.-Over $50, 900
of alleged fraudulent warrants on the
United States treasury on the account
of the Creek nation in the Indian ter
ritory have been discovered by the
government authorities. The alleged
fraud was perpetrated in connection
with the payment of the Creek Indian
nation debts and only the barest de-
tails have reached here. 1t has been
found that many old warrants to
which no consideration had ever been
attached had been renewed and paid
under the process of tribal approval
and that many new warrants had been
issued and paid in the place of the old
ones on which full payment already
has been made.

EXODUS FROM MEMPHIS.

Five Hundred People Leave to Escape Vel
low Fever-Mondsy's Record.
MEMPHIS, Tenn, Oct 26.-Three new
eases of yellow fever were reported by
the board of health last night, and
two deaths occurred from the disease.
All the cases reported are traceable to
the vicinity of the original case. in the
southern part of the city. About 500
people left town last night for north
ern points.
A New Orleans dispatch last night
said: Numerically, this has been the
worst day of the fever situation here.
The score showed total of 81 cases
and there were IL deaths. Heretofore
the number of deaths in a single day
has been nine. Unfortunately, there
continues to be concealment of cases.
Fatalities occur because medical atten-
ton is not called in, and the masses
for the time being are in a revolution
ary mood because of the enforcement
of the system of house quarantine. and
are resorting to every means in their
power to put obstacles in the way of
the constituted authorities.
There are now 80 cases being treated
at Montgomery, Ala. At Biloxi, Miss.
81 cases are under treatment and the
deaths to date number u. Four new
cases were reported at Mobile. Ala. A
very mild but well-defined case is re-
ported from Cincinnati
