ALABAMA TIED UP.

Quarantine is Paralyzing Commerce
and Trade.
Special Wire to Sunday Light.
Birmingham, Ala, Oct. 23.-The
state of Alabama today quarantined
against Opelika, Ala, because that
city is receiving Montgomery refugees
contrary to state regulations, and
against Memphis, Tenn, because of
the existence of suspicious sickness
there. This bottles up the town and
practically paralyzes traffic and travel
from the east as Opelika is the gate
way between Montgomery and Allan
ia, and between Birmingham and Sa-
vannah. AS to Memphis, the state
authorities this afternoon notified Of
ficials of the Kansas City, Memphis
and Birmingham railroad not to bring
any passengers or baggage into Ala

trains on this road into the state were

Fever to Date.

New Orleans, Oct. 23.-There have
been in New Orleans up to date 1914
cases of fever, and us deaths, which
still gives a ratio of deaths to cases OF
a trifle under IL per cent. But it is
evident that while the disease still
continues to be mild the end is unfOr-
tunately not yet within sight. The
tn ermometer during the day stiH
stands at the eighties and the weather
man sees nothing but continued high
temperature. II is well within the
pale of possibility that we should Yet
have another fortnight of unbrOken
hot weather and there is no saying to
what an extent the range and viru-
lence of the disease might increase in
that time. New cases today, forty
nine; deaths, seven.

An eager throng of spectators crowd
ed the Thirty-seventh District court
room yesterday to witness the pro-
ceedings in the Henry Robinson rape
case. Promptly at o'clock yester-
day morning, when court convened
the crowd began to gather, and about
an hour later. there were fully four
hundred people in the courtroom. II
was cosmopolitan crowd, being made
up of negroes and white men, Next
cans and Cinnamon, besides the many
other different nationalities which
compose San Antonio's population. In
the audience" were also two ladies"
From appearance they were hardly
out of their teens. They occupied
seats in the gallery and attracted the
attention of everyone in the courtroom.
They were not gaudily dressed, but
they were deeply interested, and their
eyes betrayed the eagerness with
which they devoured the testimony.
While every bit of testimony was jot-
ted down for court record, a great deal
of it is unfit for publication.
