SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, May 20
There are no new developments In the
plague situation. No new cases have
been discovered. This announcement
was made by the board of health to-
night. The incubation of Chinese and
Japanese is quietly going on. From
unofficial sources It is learned that
nine Japanese and eleven Chinese were
Iuoculated with HaffkIne yesterday,
and twenty-sIX Japanese and fifty Chi
npse to-day. At all the exits Of the city
doctors are stationed and unless Chi
nese or Japanese can exhibit certih-
cate Of incubation he Is not permitted
to pass the city limits. The declnra-
tIon Of the board OF health that tho
plague exists in the Chinese quarters OF
the city has produced no alarm outside
of that section. The chief feature of
the situation lies in the opposition of
the Chinese and Japanese to inocula-
ton.
The position Of the board OF health is
that the circumstances do not warrant
the quarantInlng Of the Chinese dis
trlcts, Of the compelling Of Its inhabi-
tants to submit to lnoculation. so long
as they remain in the city. Only those
desiring to leave the city are required to
be inocufated. The Chinese and JaPa-
nese as whole are opposed to inocula-
tion. They have retained counsel to
contest the matter In the courts, should

sneeIni Dispatch TO the IntellIEeneer
PARKERsBURe, W. Va, May 2o.-
AS was predicted in these dispatches
several days ago, Hon. c. 7. caldwell
yesterday formally withdrew his name
from the Republican legislative ticket
and the last act Of the old county Re-
publican executive committee, whose
term expired yesterday, was the ac-
ceptauce of Mr.. Cnldwells withdrawal
and the passing OF a resolution placing
the name Of Perry Nicely upon the
ticket, In his place. From report OF
the committee It appears that they had,
previous to the primary election. agreed
with the candidates that the three men,
representing the three different Sec
tions OF the district, who received the
largest number OF votes. should be con-
sldered the nominees, and, although
Caldwell received the second largest
number of votes polled in the county
for any candidate, stapleton, who also
lives in the city, polled more votes than
did Caldwell. Although It was plain
that the voters desired Caldwell as
their candidate. under the agreement
he could not stand and he gracefully
withdrew in the interest of harmony.
Upon the adjournment sine die. OF
the old county executive committee, the
newly-elected committee organized.
with Capt. S. b. Baker as chairman; F.
p. Moats, secretary. and E. c. GerwiE,
treasurer. Captain Baker, the chair
man, is not a regularly elected member
of the committee, but was chosen be-
cause of his executive ability and prom
inence in the work of the party. As a
whole the committee is the strongest
ever elected in the county.

That stalwart republican Games

too many look at the political

Cameron. That is all wrong. A
political party is or should be moth
ing but tool in the hands of the
voters. AS soon as it has outlived
its usefulness it should be laid aside
and another one taken up which
can and will do the bidding OF the

has served its turn. 1t has now
degencrated into worn and un.
trustworthy instrument. 1t defeats
the ends for which it was intended.
Its leaders are using it for private

policy OF robbery and wrong. 1t
stands opposed to the doctrines OF
the constitution and the law. 1t
seeks to place the power in the
hands OF few and to protect these
few by huge standing army. 1t
seeks low ambition for gain and
sinks generosity and dlsinterested>
ness by treachery. 1t looks with

will hasten when an emperor will

CERTAIN HOUR ACCIDENTS
HnysioIans in Hospitals Know Just What
Sort of Cases to Expect


Sort of Cases to Expect
A queer fact, well known by medical
men connected with hospitals, is that
the doctors can tell with almost abso-
lutte certainty which classes of fatali-
ties and accidents flt in with given
days and even hours, says the Philadel
phia Record. One of the doctors con.
nected with leading hospital in tht
center of the city said recently: I'VE
will begin with Monday. That day fur.
nishes by far the highest proportion OF
mishaps to workpeople, but must say
that this proportion Is rapidly dimin-
ishing. Nearly all the attempted sui
cides come in during the very early
part of each day, and the first accident
patches early in the day have large
number Of men who work on scaffolds
among them. Hardly a morning goes
by without a scaffold casucity case.
After II o'clock In the morning most
OF the cases arise from rtreet accidents.
and when evening comes cases arising
from drunken rows and deliberate as
saults begin to come in. Nearly all the
domestic cases-where wives have
been assaulted and so on-ars late
night and Saturday ones. 1t would
take me a long time to group the reg

sUBSERvlENT HAY.

John Hay has given numberless
examples of his subserviency to
British demands but his latest
crowns all his past record, as the
most monumental piece of brainless
diplomacy ever recorded of a secre
:ary of state. He has given his
consent to the taking of large
strip OF Alaska territory, purchased
from Russia by this government,
but now claimed by England,
about two miles in width and over
one hundred miles in length, cons
tanning vast American interests in
mines and numbering and other in
dustries.
Senator Mason Of Illinois, a re-
publican, yet not in sympathy with
his party on many questions, in
other words an American whose
will is not under the guidance Of
Mark Hanna or the administra-
ton, says that the taking OF this
territory is sufficient grounds for
US declaring war against Great
Britain. No other president or no
secretary OF state would counte-
nance for the space Of one minute
the preposterous claims of the
Canadian government, through the
mother country.
Hay has given many proofs OF
his'pro>British leanings, yet in this
instance he overreaches the mark
and would permit government
which has always been jealous Of
our boundaries to step in and take
a great strip of territory, which the
hest authorities in the country
agree belongs to us by purchase.
What can be done with a scores
tary Of state so remiss1 A presi>
dent has been impeached for less
cause, why not either impeach Hay
or demand his resignation. The
