Controlling of Florida Fish Business

Jacksonville, Fla. August 1S.-The
Florida Fish n Ice Company, incor-
porated, Of his city, is now in full
swing. Capital stock 500, 900 of which
$4,000 is paid up. 1t controls all the
fisheries in Florida east of Pensacola.
The company is operating ninety
eight schooners and sharpies, an aux
Hilary schooner fitted with globe en-
gines, and a steamboat, all fitted with
refrigerator boxes, employing 800 fish
ermen. besides barrel makers, packers,
bookkeepers and clerks. The president
is John Saverese, OF Tampa; general
manager, w. H. Adams, of Jackson
Vile; secretary and treasurer, George
T. Brown, of Jacksonville.
Atlanta, Ca, August 1S.-The prin-
cipal fish dealers here have received a
circular letter under date of Jackson
vile, Fla, and sent out on the 10th
instant giving the particulars of the
new combination in the fisheries Of
Florida.
n or two Atlanta houses were un-
able to serve their customers any fish
LoCay for the reason that they have
decided to communicate with the
houses not in the combine and ascer-
tain their prices. 1t is believed by the
dealers here, however, that although
there are still three houses not in the
combinations, that their catch is being
bought as fast as brought in and that
they will eventually be forced into the
organization.

WPhillppine Facts,,
(From The Philadelphia Pre-

From The Philadelphia Press.)
The campaign in the Philippines has
now been under active discussion for
over a month past, since the president
announced his determination to SEND
10000 men to the islands, and certain
facts are now established.
First, the delay in the operations i'm
Luzon and the lack Of men were due to
congress and it's disbandment of the
war army. This reduction the regular
army to q, 400 men. Since this reduc-
ton took place in March over SO, 900
men have been enlisted or re-enlisted,
until there are men enough.
Second, the loss from disease in the
Philippines has been less than in n
tropical military expedition save one or
two short wars by English troops and
less than in most English tropical
wars. Instead OF the loss by disease
being heavy and due to carelessness. Il
Is less than the loss In the Mexican war
or the civil war, less than in any
French expedition, and less than I'm
most English expeditions, as medical
returns and records show.
Third, instead Of the result being
small from the fighting OF the past six
months 1T has been large. A third OF
the Tagal territory and more than n
third OF the population are now held.
The larger forces OF the enemy are
broken. The Sisaya Islands are peace
full. The Sulu islands have accepted
American allegiance. Active resistance
exists in not one-sixth Of the archipel-
ago. The campaign continues in spite
OF the rainy season., and by November
Luzon will be brought under peace.

The Chicago Times-Herald is greatly
rejoiced because it hears that the silk
hat is to be discarded. IF God" it
exclaims, had thought man would be
more beautiful with some tall thing
upon his head than he is without it He
would undoubtedly have crested him
as the peacock is crested" And by the
same token if God had thought that
man would be more beautiful with a
long-tailed coat on his back He would
undoubtedly have tailed him as the pea
cock is tailed. AS this logic can be ap-
piled to every article Of mans apparel
il would seem that the solution of the
dress problem to which Chicago is tend
ing Is to turn over its silk hats and
things to it's statued nymphs and adorn
its men in that total unadornment
which was so objectionable in the case
of the nymphs.-Louisville Courier

Hennes, August 1S.-A severe blow
to n military set it was when the
schneider dispatch was made known
at 5 o'clock this morning in the refer
tories and the hotels. 1t was a source
Of ~jubilation on the other side.
General MERCER had greatly impress
ed its Importance when giving his evil
dence. His manner was victorious as
he handed the alleged letter OF Colonel
schneider to the president OF the court
martial, to be added to and filed with
the other papers connected with the
trial. These generals al Rennes nave
They show forensic ability in making
speeches when they ought to give evil
dence, but they lack lawyer-like pru-
dence and legal practice.
Any advocate would have felt how
risky it was to dwell on such a docu-
ment as an intercepted letter from a
military attache, especially in view of
the forgeries with which the secret
dossier teemed.
After all that had transpired about
uC iCllcIS d MILITARY dlldCIleS 10 edCH
other in 1894, the attaches in self-de-
tense were bound to discredit every
thing in the secret dossiers. These let
tiers were supported by police reports.
Were they published the world would
read them aghast. As at least 12S per-
sons in all must ave seen them, the
authors, real or alleged, would find
themselves on the defensive.
But these considerations never pre-
sented themselves to Genera Mercier's
mind. That he believed in the anthem
ITCHY of this document and pinned his
faith to it, is now laughed at every
where. His best friends call him a
donkey, and his enemies rejoice.

The Austrian and Italian embassies
attest the g~enuineness of the Schneid-

feels that he has thrown the fat into
the fire, and he looked depressed and
out of countenance today. So did Ro-

of his deposition yesterday.
Colonel Picquart was again a wit

chair with which the generals had been
successfully accommodated. PicQuart's
figure is younger han his face. He is
clean built, 1.-the, tall, graceful. He re-
mains the guardian angel of Dreyfus,
standing between him and the i'm
placable enemies who sit on the front
seat of the witness quarter.
The Dreyfusites greatly fear for
Picquart's life. The stalwarts among
them now guard him.. He looks a man
with an u~npropitious star, and he has
always been unlucky, unless in having

CONCLUSION OF BXPBRTS
Regarding the Manner Of Conveying
and Contraction Of n hts Diseases
Criticism Of the sanaren Theory OF
termination and Commua dcation OF
the Disease-The Disease 4 infectious
In Certain Animals and Not In
OtherS.

Washington, August 1s.-The report
OF the commission appointed by the
president in 1897 from the marine h o.
pital service stan TO investigate 6Ie
nature OF yellow fever. was today mads
public by Surgeon General wyman.
The commission was composed OF Sur
geon General wasdin and Passed As
sistant Surgeon Geddings. both OF them
yellow fever experts.
The conclusions OF the commission
are summarized as follows:
/. That the micro-organIsm discoy-
cred by Professor Giuseppe Sanarelli,
OF the university OF Bologna, Italy,
and by him named bacillus icteroi
desc" is the cause OF yellow fever.
.. That yellow fever Is naturally in
fictitious in certain animals, the degree
varying with the species: that in some
rodents local infection is very quickly
followed by blood Infection: and tina
while in dogs and rabbits there IS no
evidence OF this subsequent invasion
OF the blood, monkeys react TO the in
lection the same as man.
3. That infection takes place by way

colonization in this tract giving rise
to the earlier manifestations OF the
disease
4. That in nan cases OF the disease,
a majority, the primary in
lection or colonization in the lungs is
followed by a secondary infection, or
a secondary colonization in the blood
Of the patient. This secondary Infection
may be complicated by the coinstanta-
neous passage of other organisms into
the blood or his complication may
arise during he last hours of life.
5. That there is no evidence to sup
port the theory advanced by Professor
Sanarelli that this disease is primarily
a ~septicaemia, inasmuch as cases do
occur in which the bacillus can not be
found in the blood or organs in which
1t might be deposited therefrom.
6. That there exists no casual rela-
tionship between the bacillus TX" OF
Sternberg and this highly infectious
disease, and hat the bacillus "X' is
frequently found in the intestinal con-
tents OF normal animals and man, as
well as in the urine and the bronchial
secretion.
Z. That, so far as your commission
Is aware, the bacillus icteroides has
never been found in any body other
than n infected with yellow fever.
and that may be the cultural similarl-
ty W. this and other micro-or-
ganisms, 1t is characterized by a spe-
cifcity which is distinctive.
8. That the bacillus %icteroides is very
susceptible to the influences Injurious

control by the procession OF disinfec-
ton, chemical and mechanical, IL as

from our present knowledge, there ex-
