Yellow Fever Claims Additional Victims
at tho Soldiers' Home.
NEWPORT News, Va, Aug. 2.-There
have been four deaths from yellow fever
at the Soldiers Home during the day.
This makes total of II deaths.
Thus far the disease has been confined
to the home, but all surrounding towns
are excited and vigorous quarantine is
being maintained. DR.. Wasdin of the
Marine hospital service is in charge at
Hampton and is working in co-opera-
ton with the local board of health. He
has strengthened the Gordon about the
town of Phoebus, which lie reports in a
bad sanitary condition. The fact that
only one new case appeared during the
day is
Encouraging to the Officials
here, who are taking every measure to
prevent a spread of the disease. They
feel that the fact that the infected ter
ritory is in the hands of the govern
ment and under one management will
be of great value in dealing with the
scourge and enable better measures to
be taken than if it were in some COM
mercial place.
Messages were received by DR.. Wy
man from quarantine officers through
out the United States asking whether
they shall impose maritime quaran-
tine against Norfolk. He has replied
that there appears to be no necessity
for such restriction in the case OF Nor
folk or Newport News.

NEW YoRK's FINANCIAL CONDITION.

NEW YORK, April S-The Financier says:
The statement of the Associated Banks of New
York city for the week ending April shows
but slight changes in the conditions of the
banks as a whole, surplus reserves having de-
creased less than half million dollars. The
loss in cash 81 Az, 800, entirely in the form
of legal tenders, but as deposits are almost
four millions less reserve requirements are re-
duced in proportion, thus olfsetting the effect
of the cash decrease. The statement is not
entirely clear in its various exhibits. Review

with reference TO the Stock Exchange furry
