said the physician. Prior to that, we
had the disease every winter. I predict
we will have more smallpox next year
than we have had for the past twenty
years. I do not think, however. the
disease will become as prevalent as it
was in Philadelphia in 1868"
The physician intimated it was an
unnecessary precaution to remove pa
tients to the detention hospital IF
the case is taken care of at the first ap-
pearance of the disease, it will be just
as safe to quarantine the home of the
patient as to remove him to the deten-

slightest danger to the community If

Recent Accident.

Washington, Dec. 2.-Although only
three weeks have elapsed since the fire

traces of the disaster. With the excep-

AN AMERICAN BOUNCED.
at Marianao for Running a Bakery
in Opposition to Cuban.

New York, Dec. "A dispatch to the
Herald from Havana says:
The engineer companies in Camp Mari
anaO are perfecting arrangement at their
camp. As soon lumber arrives an
their tents viii be f1oored and a comfort
able encampment provided until perma-
nent barracks are erected. The men have
enjoyed excellent health since their ar
rival and appear well contented with their
position. The Cubans have been making
roads in the vicinity of the. camp and
clearing ground for two railroad tracks,
which will run into the camp.
It is believed here that the occu2at ton
will commence about January I, and in
a month there has to be constructed the
whole public system of a town of y ONO in
hab.tants. It is scarcely thought posi-
BILE to have the camp ready in time. The
first work done viii be to complete the
water system, for which plans have been
made.
An American named Williams will make
complaint tomorrow to the commissioners
against General MenOcal. Williams started
a ba kerry at Marianao beach and was do

of a Cuban baker, who complained to

Williams place and gave him one hour to
leave town

DIR. ANDREWS UNKNOWN.
Mayor Harrison Does Not Recognize
the superintendent of Schools.

Chicago, Dec. 2.-ConsiderabIe comment
was INDUCED in about the city hall yester-
day over the failure of Mayor Harrison
to recognize Dr.. z. B. Andrews, superin-
tendent of schools, when the latter as
one of a delegation of citizens. called on
him to protest against the granting of
license for a saloon near the James C.
Blaine school.
Mayor Harrison did not learn that DR..
Andrews was among his callers until after
the delegation had departed, and the SUI
perinJendent OF schools appeared em5ar-
raised over the matter.
In speaking of the mayors failure 20
recognize him, Dr. Andrews said:
I was there. but stood in the back
ground. I there was no occasion for
me to speak, the matter was beyond
any assistance from the authorities of the
board of education. I suppose Mayor Har-
rfson scarcely saw me, as I was not the
spokesman of the party and did not press
myself on his attention"

Victoria, B. c., Dec. 2.-The steamer
AIiowera has arrived here bringing
Honolulu advices up to the 23d. On
November % the steamer Australia
was to leave Honolulu with a hundred
men of the New York regiment bound
to San Francisco on the way to New
York. A few days later 300 more will
follow by the Alameda.
The troops are supposed to have been
recalled on account Of the ravages Of
typhoid. There are said to have been
800 cases when the AIiowera left. Per
mission has been received at Honolulu
from Washington to abandon indie

POLICE WRECK 80 CAFES.
eTenderIoin" District in New York
Being Cleaned Out

New York Dec. 2.-Led by Captain
Chapman, a squad of detectives from
the Eldridge street police station yes
teTday descended upon the cafes in the
red light" district, comprising Allen,
Forsyth, Chrystie, Bayard, Hester,
Division, Suffolk and Norfolk streets.
When their work was finished thirty
cafes were wrecked, much as if they
had received a visit from a western
cyclone.
In the Cafe Winter, at No. 178 Chrys-
tie street, the police ripped gaudy cur
tains from the windows and doors, pull
ed down flimsy partitions and piled fur
niture in broken heaps upon the floor.
The same programme was carried out
in the Cafe Esvegel, No. 1881 Chrystie
street, and the Cafe de Paris, at No. 1884,
an the same street.
The Cafe Hamburg, No. 1872 Allen
street, then received a visit, and when
the police got through there was not
much left Of the place.
The men and women in charge of the
deSpoiled cafes were furious at the
work of the police. Threats in a dozen
dialects were hurled at them, and sew
eraI times it seemed as if there would
be a riot.
The owners of the property said that
they would form a union and have the
captain enjoined.
Let them enjoin, "said Captain Chap
man. If they don't clear out of my
precinct now I will arm my men with
axes, and we won't leave a thing in
their places. They say I have no evil
dence. Let them go into court, and
they'll find out. I don't like this kind
of work, but they told me to clean this
precinct Let me tell you, it's going to
be cleaned"
Late last night the captain and his
men took a new tack. They visited wO-
men who have furnished rooms in the
tenementS for immoral purposes, and
forty such women were told they had
to move.
Chapman told them he would give
them twenty-four hours to pack up, and
warned them that the need Of a second
visit would mean treatment similar to
that given to the prOprietors of the
cafes.
As a result of the wrecking of the
latter places in the earlier part of the
day. the red light district was quiet
last night. Only one arrest was made
that of a woman at No. 149 Chrystie
street

The natives are fiocking to Aguinaldo's standard. He is on the whole conducting the campaign on humane principles.

It is known that the rep resentatives of the house stood out stify for the original proposition for the liberal taxation of tobacco on hand and also for the house reading on tobacco packages but no definite decision was reached on either proposition. Tire indications are that the provision in regard to beer will be left as the senate left it The democrats sat with the republicans and there was no sugges- ton of party division as is uaual in con sidering revenue measures.
