Texas Vorwarts. He is at present
chairman of the United States South
ern Ute Moron commission, having
been appointed by President Grover

The national grand lodge will con-

TWO DEATHS
REPORTED AT
NEW ORLEANS

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Sept 24.-The
following dispatch was received to-
day.
New Orleans, Sept 24.-Use your influence
with Mr. Wanamaker and other prominent
PhiladelphianS to appeal by wire to Surgeon
General Wyman to order DR.. Guiteras to in
vestigate, Immediately, the very suspicious
fever now prevailing in Galveston, Houston,
Dallas, San Antonio. All Texas is threatened
and should be guarded.
-"Horter. Tertrou & Co..
This message was addressed to
George Horter, of Haddonfield, N. j.,
the father Of the head of the firm in
New Orleans. Directly upon its re-
ceipt, consultations were had with Mr.
Wanamaker, Strawbridge & Clothier
Hood, Foulkrod & Co., Col. Grey and
President Thompson, of the Pennsyl-
Yania railroad, as to the best means
Of securing response to this appeal
San Antonio, Tex, Sept. PA tele-
gram was received here today from
President Olliphant, Of the New Or
leans board of health, inquiring as to
the health condition of San Antonio
and stating that this city was strong
ly suspected" The matter was taken
up at a meeting of the board of health
here today, and the following state
ment issued: ''There is no case of yell
low fever or smallpox in San Antonio,
and to our knowledge no case of yellow
fever in all Western Texas"
NEW ORLEANS, La, Sept. "a
Eminent doctors believe that the work
of the board of health is productive of
good results and that the fever is not
spreading, but on the contrary is being
confined to localities. Thus far there
have been a few less than one hundred
cases and fifteen deaths. The death
rate is in the neighborhood of Is per
cent. 1t was in 1878, 16 per cent; so
that up to the present time the disease
is about as Virulent as it was in the
last great epidemic New Orleans has
had. One Of the sensations Of the day
was the announcement that the board
of health had decided to prosecute Dr.
Monluzin for having failed to report
case of suspicious fever. In one of the
morning papers a few days ago DR..
MOnluZin was quoted as saying that
there was little if any fever in New
Orleans and that the prevailing sick
ness was Burmah or sun fever which
he described as contagious or infec-
tious and quite likely to be attended
with about the mortality Of yellow
fever This morning MonluZin reported
to the board of health the case of Miss
Dreyfuss who, he said, was suffering
with yellow fever. 1t was not long be-
fore this report was received that the
board had reported the death of Miss
Dreyfuss An investigation proved that
Miss Dreyfuss had been taken sick
about six days ago and that DR.. Mon
luzin had failed then to report the
case as suspicious. This was the
record of today:
Deaths-salvador Casinir, 1923 Charles
street; Fred Gund, 5S5 Mara street; Miss
Dreyfuss, old number SO Bourbon.
New Cases-Child in the Wood family, Oc-
tavia, between st. Charles and Pitts; Miss
Mccall, 31S jackson; Miss Mamie McNeely,
1919 St Louis; Gertrude Kerr, S31 Bourbon;
John APPEL, 1872 Howard; Kate Murray, col
ored, 1928 Magazine; Rosalia Balding, col.

peculiar sound from the southwest side
of the mountain was heard, and before
the residents of the camp could fully
dress they found themselves rapidly
borne down the canyon on mass OF
moving debris from the mountain side.
A majority of the residents of Sheep
camp escaped, although nearly the en-
tire village was destroyed. The slide
struck the town in the northern part,
where nearly all the packers were
ouartered in tents and asleep. The
main part Of the slide from the noun
tain missed Sheep camp proper. al
though from the report very little or
the town remains The packers camp
was wholly carried away and it is i'm
possible to learn the names of the un-
fortunates as they were all known by
their surnames, such as Jack, Jim,
Dick. etc. The cause of the slide was
reported to be the action of heavy
rains on the hills where large resef-
voir was formed, which body of water
and weight forced the land down to the
basin below"

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 24.-When
seen today upon his return from the
navy yards, Lieut.. Peary said: In ad-
dition to securing the meteorite, While
1 was north this year,i laid the plans
for next years expedition, and when
1 leave again, which will be about the
end of next July, it will be to remain
up there until reach the pole, or lose
my life in the attempt, if it takes five
years to accomplish this object.
Next summer 1 shall take my vessel
up to Sherard Osborne fjord and make
that place my base of supplies. On the
last trip 1 made arrangements with the
Arctic highlanders, q tribe of EsGui-
maux, consisting of 230 men, women
and children, known as the most north
erly tribe of human beings on The
earth, to put in this coming winter OBJ
tanning bear, seal and deer skins for
our clothing and in securing all the
walrus meat they can for dog food.
have singled out eight young men Of
the tribe who, with their wives, ca
noes, dogs, sledges and tents, will ac-
company me to Sherard Osborne fjord,
which is about 300 miles farther north
than their present abode. My party
will consist Of surgeon, possibly an
other white man, and myself, the rest
will be Esquimauv. The latter know
how to drive dogs, they can go hun
cry, and know how to set food.
.rThe conditions under which I shall
make the coming expedition are of the
most satisfactory character. The Amer
lean Geographical society has assured
s15O. 900 to meet all expenses, and
have been given five years leave OF
absence I shall probably buy a new
ship for next year, though we may use
the Hope again. Mrs. Peary will not
accompany me. I am quite sure that
1 shall succeed in reaching the pole.
Nansen got within 260 miles of 1t. but
Andree did not have one chance in one
thousand when he started to drift over
the pole. 1 do not think An1ree will
accomplish anything. and may have
lost his life long before this in his at
tempt"

CITY OF MEXICO, Sept. 24-Ex-1n-
spector Of Police Eduardo Velasquez
took his own life, in Belem prison to-
day. The inspector blew his brain out
with a revolver. He was proud
man, exceedingly reserved, rarely be-
ing known to smile, and very ambi-
ticus. his rise from humble position
through various posts to the command
of the police having been sufficiently
rapid to attract attention to him as a
man of great talent. Since the alleged
lynching plot was exposed and he,
with other police was imprisoned, he
has shown marked change, being ex-
tremely reticent and evidently suffer-
ing from an intense nervous strain.
He was subjected yesterday to long
examination by Judge Flores, and at
the conclusion of that ordeal, on his
return to his room in the prison, 1t
was noted he showed great detection
and anguish of mind. He had always
been in the habit of retiring late and
in prison kept up his custom, retiring
