EXCITEMENT DYING OUT.
Fever Situation at New Orleans Is
Much Improved.

Fever Situation at New Orleans Is
Much Improved.
NEW ORLEANS, Oct THE fever
situation was considerably improved
today There have been but two deaths
reported. Yesterday by noon there had
been nineteen cases and five deaths,
and the disparity between the records
of the two days is apparent. AS a mat
ter of fact, the situation here is no
worse than it has been for some time,
and excitement has absolutely died out
Now that the disease has shown no
symptom of an epidemic form, bust
ness men are arranging to bring their
families back to this city This was
the record today: Twenty-four new
cases and two deaths, the latter being
Miss Annie Eckert and Miss Pauline
Tambereau. Cases continue to appear
on Jackson avenue, one of the fine
boulevards of the city, and it is a mat
ter of fact that, while Carrollton is the
cleanest and best kept portion of New
Orleans, more cases have developed
there than in any other quarter. Dr.
Samson and one of his family are
among the stricken today.
EDWARDS, Miss, Oct. Ten cases
of yellow fever were officially reported
today, half of them being colored. The
condition of affairs is somewhat i'm
proved. Number of deaths to date, 15;
number under treatment, 156.
