the official report received last night
by Surgeon General Wyman from DR..

duty at the institution. Added to DR..

Monday this makes up to date forty
cases in all which have occurred at the
home, of which eight have proved ia
tai Surgeon White yesterday tele-
graphed DR.. Wyman that in his opin-
ion there was little doubt that there
had been some fever infection in the
neighboring village of Phoebus. The
surgeon general said that should the
fever develop there no surprise would
be felt, in view, of the proximity of the
place TO the Soldiers Home and the
mixing of the inmates of the institu-
tion with the people of Phoebus.
The people for miles around the
home are very much alarmed, but are
quiet. No restrictions have been placed
on the departure of the several hun
dred visitors at Old Point Comfort, but
Dr. Pettus, who has absolute charge of
affairs there, will exercise careful su-
pervision of those who may leave, so
as to avoid danger of their communicat-
ing the disease. This will apply also to
the soldiers now stationed on the gov
ernment reservation there. and who
have been ordered to proceed to Bat

Milwaukee, Aug. 2-The address is
sued to Wisconsin Democrats by the
committee created in Chicago on July
20. consisting of John Tooher, of Mil
waukee; T. E. Ryan. of Waukesha, and
w. II. Rogers, of Madison, and made
public yesterday, recommends the or
ganization of Democratic clubs through
the state of Wisconsin without delay,
and says that there are three great
questions confronting the American
people for solution which must be
fought out in the next national cam
paign. That they are not the only is
sues by any means, but that they pre-
dominate over all others, there can be
no doubt. The great questions are
trusts, money and Imperialism, any
one of which should serve as an issue
for a national campaign.
Chicago Platform Is to stand.

tion is then treated at considerable
length, and ii declares in favor of BIZ
metallism at the ratio of 16 to !, as IL
stood when it was demonetiZed in 1873.
1t deals also extensively with the ques-
ton of trusts. and says the respon-
sibility of the evils flowing from them
should be placed at the door of the Re-
publican party. 1t charges the Re-
publican party with turning its back
upon the principles enunciated in the
declaration of Independence. and look
ing to the Old World-the government
of King George III.-for its inspiration
and guidance. William J. Bryan is de-
clared to be the first public man to
come out on the question of imperial
ism.

w. A. Clark. who is in the city stated
in an interview yesterday that in his
opinion there is nothing sure about
William j. Bryan's nomination by the
Democratic party at it's next national
convention. The senator also said that
he is not sure about silver being the
great Issue of the next campaign,
though he still calls himself a bimetal-
list. He believes to a certain extent in
expansion, and feels that the war in
the Philippines must be carried on un-
til the Filipinos surrender.
