Della Fox's Ailment Probably Only
Temporary,

New York, June 2.-Della May Fox, the
comic opera singer, has, been committed
by Justice MeAdam of the supreme court.
to the asylum for the insane at Wave
Crest, Astoria
The commitment was made on the ap-
plication of A. H. Hummel, who appeared
for Miss Fox's brother, William L. Fox.
The petition set forth that the actress
was suffering from mental hallucinations
caused by the excessive use of stimulants.
1t was supported by affidavits by Drs.
Austin Flint, jr., and Edward D. Fisher.
Miss Fox has but recently recovered
from a serious illness, during which her
life deSpaired Of For several weeks
she has been undergoing a severe nervous
strain and has recently been acting in
peculiar manner. She has been laboring
under the delusion that her friends and
relatives were her enemies and were
trying to get possession of her money and
jewels. She resisted the doctors efforts
to keep her quiet and resorted to the use
of stimulants, which arc said to have pro-
duced her present condition. Her brother
on the advice of the physicians, who were
afraid she would do herself harm, had
her committed to the asylum at Wave
Crest She was taken there yesterday
afternoon. Her physicians think that a
few weeks of quiet will be instrumental
in restoring Miss Fox to complete health

BEST IN THE WORLD.
The Sanitary Conditions of New
York City

New York, June DIR. A. H. Doty.
the health officer of the port of New
York, in an interview said that there
is not a city in the world whose san
itary conditions are superior to those
of New York and consequently he has
no fears that bubonic plague will OBJ
tain a foothold here. He says that bu
bonic plague, like typhus fever, is pre-
eminently a. disease which thrives in
filth and overcrowding and other bad
sanitary conditions.
Although the transmission of the
bubonic plague by vermin complicates
the treatment of this form of infection,
it is quite certain that the danger from
it can be reduced to the minimum by
the observance of proper care" said
the doctor in an interview.
Il do not hesitate to say that on the
appearance of bubonic plague in any
place where proper sanitary conditions
exist and the Importance of cleanliness
and fresh air is fully recognized the
disease would soon be under control"

ONLY HALF THE TRUTH.
Reeves Did Not Tell All in His Gu
ban Scandal Confession.

Havana, June 2.-The Post replying
editoriaIly to the statement of the Lu-
cha that Mr.. Rathbone would not sub
nit much longer to the sights being
put upon him, says:
This suggestion is as daring as it is
insinuating. If the fact be that Mr.
Rathbone has been extravagant to a
reprehensible and even criminal degree
and if he had authority from any quar-
ter for SO doing, it in no way lessons his
responsibility to allege that he lent him
self as party to the wrongs; nor will
it excuse him in the least to add to the
crime the offense of concealing another
If he knows anything discreditable, no
matter how high it touches, he should
make it public. The people are willing
to believe Mr.. Rathbone guiltless, until
the contrary has been proved; but let
there be no games of bluff, and no in
situations that whatever crime has
been committed is to be condoned be-
cause used by those higher in Office"
A warrant was issued today for the
arrest of former Deputy Auditor W. M
Reeves, who was lodged in Jail, his bail
being fixed at $1,000. 1t is now believed
that Reeves, in his so-called "confes-
SION only gave half the truth. Indeed
the delay in placing him behind the
bars was largely due to the desire of

Chicago, June 2.-The Times Herald

organization of workmen which was
formed soon after the labor troubles

The plan is to appoint fifteen or TWEEN
ty men from different trades to form

Some of the objects of the national
