STRANGE SUSPICIONS
 ARE ENTERTAINED

NEW YORK. Dec 30.-A Washington special to the Herald says: There is a feeling of unrest and anxiety among the Representatives in Congress grow ing out of the complicated condition of affairs in Havana. There is a strong feeling prevailing in Cuba and else where, according to Representative Bankhead, that the United States au- thorities are indirectly trying to pro- yoke the insurgents to commit some act of hostility which will justify the United States in assuming absolute jurisdiction in Cuba. This feeling has increased to a remarkable degree dur ing the last few weeks, and MT. Bank head says he would not be surprised to hear of a conflict between the United States forces and the Cubans.

DETAILED COMPARISON MADE
Sheriff Lyndon, However, Doubts That the Wholesale Murderer Is in Custody in
 Iowa.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

BURLINGTON, Iowa, Dec. 30.-The Hawkeye says that Ed Smith Is no other than James c. Dunham, who murdered six people near San Jose, Cal, and for whom a reward of S11,000 is offered
 The prisoner was arrested here for drunkenness a month ago and would have been released to-day but for his resemblance to the description of Dun- ham, which had just been received. He will be rearrested on the charge of being a fugitive from justice, and will be held pending instructions from San Jose. He is said to be the exact image of the man wanted, and local officers are positive he is Durham.
 SAN JOSE, Dec 30.-There is very little if any additional information at this end of the line concerning the man who is under arrest at Burlington, Iowa, on suspicion of being James C. Dunham, the noted murderer, who has been hunted so long and unsuccess- fully so far.
 In speaking of the Burlington suspect this morning Sheriff Lyndon says he fears he is not the man, but as yet this cannot be definitely determined. The Burlington Sheriff is positive the sus- pect is really Dunham.. In his letters the Iowa officer says the man almost perfectly fills the description 0f Dun ham, and looks like the photographs which he has of the murderer.
 In the description which the Iowa of ficer sent here he refers to tooth miss ing in the upper right row. A local den- tist has furnished the officers with a statement that Durham had one up- per tooth, nearly in front on the left side. which was built up of gold, though it did not show save by close examination While the dentist is posi- tive that it was on the left side, he has no record on his books. The Santa Clara officers think the dentist might be mistaken as to the location of the tooth; since he speaks solely on memory of the work done. If it is right upper tooth, then the tooth missing in the suspect would go to form strong link in the chain.
 The Iowa officer has sent specimens of the handwriting of the prisoner. This is that of an educated man. When com pared with the known writing of Dun ham, there may be some little simi- larity, but the best judges are inclined to say that the writing. is that of differ ent persons.

JOSEPH ELLIOTT
 DIES IN A CELL
The San Franciscan Is Supposed to Have Been Crazed by the High
 Altitude of Denver.

DENVER, Dec. 3O.-Joseph Elliott of San Francisco was found dead in the City Jail at o'clock this morning. Death is supposed to have been caused by conges- tion of the brain. Elliott had been in jail since last Wednesday, when he was locked up on a charge of insanity. A railroad ticket from San Francisco and a steamer passage ticKet identified him. Some money was also found in his pockets.
 From appearances Elliott, while stand ing with his back against the bars of the ward, had fallen forward on his face and then folded his arms about his head and expired. It Is thought that the high al- titude was the cause of his mental con- dition. Coroner Rollins will hold an au- topsy to ascertain the exact cause of death. John Elliott, a brother in San Francisco has been notified of the death, but has not yet been heard from.

YELLOW SCOURGE.

The yellow fever situation
throughout the state of Missis-

tions. The area of the fever has
so enlarged that infection may be
said to be general throughout the
state, as there is not a section that
has not been visited. Three in
terstate railroads have practically
suspended business, and several
short lines are on the verge of a
temporary shut down, due to
the lack of trade Twenty thou
sand or more people have hurried
ly left the state and are refugeeing
in the northern cities, eagerly
awaiting the approach Of cold
weather.
The disease continues to in
crease steadily in Jackson, the
state capital. Since September
y there have been forty-four
cases there, Of which twenty-four
were negroes. Only five deaths
have been reported since the be-
ginning. The majority of the ne
groes are we'll and feel none the
worse for their yellow fever expe-
rience, but the majority of the
white cases are still under treat
ment. Several of convalescent.
