DIPHTHERITIC KISSES
Fresno Threatened With an Epidemic
From Russian Colonists

FRESNO, June 16.-A party of fifteen
Russian immigrants arrived this evening
from the east, and were pounced upon by
Health Officer Adair, who insisted that they
go into quarantine. The health officer had
received a warning from the state health
officer that the Russians had arrived on
the Lain at New York on the 9th instant
with a caseAof diphtheria among them. The
diphtheritic child and its parents were de-
tained In New York, but the remainder of
the party came through to Fresno. They
were met at the depot here by number OF
their countrymen, and there were osculatory
greetings galore. The men kissed each
other as heartily as the women and children,
and the performance was watched by many
interested spectators.
If there is diphtheria among the immi-
grants 1t Is altogether likely that the pro-
miscuous kissing will result in the spread
of the disease in the local Russian colony.

SAILS OUT OF CADIZ AND THEN
SAILS BACK AGAIN
Another Of the Warships Found to Be
Useless and Will Have to
Remain in Port

NEW YORK, June 16.-A dispatch to the
Herald from Cadiz via Gibraltar says:
There is great excitement here owing to
fears of the American fleet coming to Spain
1t has been decided to send further REIN
forcements to the Balearic Islands, the
Canaries and Ceuta.
The reserve squadron, consisting Of two
ironclads. one torpedo boat, one cruiser and
two torpedo boat destroyers, sailed at dawn
yesterday, but returned in the evening.
These mysterious movements are doubtless
intended to mislead and any alleged sailing
of the fleet should be received with the
greatest caution.
The auxiliary cruiser Ciudad de Cadiz has
left here under sealed orders.
From hints gathered in official circles it
Is believed the squadron will sail singly or
In pairs under sealed orders to meet at a
given point. probably on the high seas.
Some say the rendezvous Is the Sargossa
Yea off the Azores, where the vessels will
be outside the usual track of shipping and
able to wait quietly for their .consorts in
order to sail together.
Captain Aunon has expressed great an
noyance at the continued delays. He de-
clares his intention of reforming the pres
emit system at the arsenals and of abolishing
the red tape methods hitherto so prevalent.
The minister favors such drastic changes
that 1t is uncertain whether the squadron is
remodeled yet to his satisfaction. Anyhow
the Alfonso XIII is apparently failure and
probably will have to be replaced.
A consultation has been held between
Marquis Cammillas, the President of the
Transatlantic Company, and Captain Au-
non respecting the intention of the British
engineers on the auxiliary cruisers. Bissel,
an engineer on the Leon XIII, has signed
for one.
General Valdez has arrived with more am
munition.
The Campania Transatlantica's steamers
Covadnoga and Satrusgati have arrived and
are being transformed into armed cruisers.
A report has reached Cadiz that Rear Ad-
miral Dewey is short of ammunition.
Another Start Made
MADRID. June 1s, p. NIT was again
announced today that the Spanish reserve
squadron has left Cadiz for an unknown
destination. The Minister Of Marine Cap
tain Aunon, it is added, was on board one
of the ships when the squadron sailed, but
1t appears he will return on reaching the
open sea and giving Admiral Camara his
final instructions.
