scHLEY's FLEET.
It Will Not Visit South Africa as
Was Expected.

NEW YORK. May ga special to the
Tribune from Washington says: Admir-
al Schley's fleet will remain in South
American waters for the next six months
at least. The belief that his ships would
have to go to Cape Town to be doc.fed
or else come home for that purpose sooa
has been met by an order from The Navy
Department suspending for his fleet tn
regulation which compels the docking o.
every vessel once in SIX months. This
period was already overdue for all three
ships of the South Atlantic station. but
as there appears to be no particular rea-
son for the Chicago, the Montgomery or
the Wilmington to develop great speed
at the present time the urgency OF dock
ing is not recognized. 1t is admitted.
however, at the Department that in case
docking was imperative in the case OF
one of these vessels she would be brought
to the United States for the purpose, IN
preference to sending her to Cape Town,
as 1t is well known that no American
warship would be welcome IN Brltisn
South African waters just now.
Experienced naval officers have been
surprised at the Difference PAID TO Eng
lish wishes in this respect by all the
great Powers. In every other war OF re-
cent date the fleets of neutral Powers
have swarmed to the vicinity or nos
tilities At one time it was feared that
the visit of Admiral Schley's little fleet
to Cape Town might induce other mari
time Powers to send vessels there. out.
according to Admiral Schleys friends,
this excuse no longer has any appiica-
ton other than to confine the Admirai
to South American ports.

To the State Boards of Health of the

All the cases were Chinese found

known as Chinatown. That they died
of bubonic plague was established by
meteorological investigation by the
City Board OF Health and confirmed by
Dr. Kinyoun. the United States quaran-
tine officer OF the port of San Fran
cisco
At this time there are no known
cases OF bubonic plague in California.
The Board Of Health of the city OF San
Francisco is taking every precaution TO

arise We obligate ourselves to imme-

True Story Of the Ciy's Dire Visitation
Revealed.
SEVEN DEATHS AND MANY CASES

The Fight Against InocuIation
Still Going On.

The following first page news article
appears In the Stockton Mail of May %:
SAN FRANCISCO, May 22.-The bu-
bonic plague situation remains the
same here. despite what the living
Chronicle and Call say about IL. All
the principal places OF business in Chi
natown remain closed. The local pa
pers say nothing whatever about IT.
The Chronicle this morning libels the
Board OF Health, and the Call lies
about the action of the State Board.
which met here last night to consider
the plague situation.
The State Board indorses the action
OF the -ocal Board in every particular.
IL ascertained from the local Board
that there Is no living case of plague in
the city at the present time, although it

town, living or dead. The State Board
found. however. that there had been
seven cases of bubonic plague in this
city. No one has pretended that there
are living cases at present. So far as
can be ascertained Il is the infection
that causes alarm. The Chinese conceal
their sick. and their dead also, some
times. so far as they dare under the
law
The federal health authorities are 60
ing ahead In their precautionary meas
ures. but the cowardly local press has
no criticism to offer for that. The fed
eral health authorities consider the sit
luation sufficiently serious to warrant
the best efforts of the department to
prevent spread of the malady. The
Examiner Is the only morning paper
that remains silent. Under an agree
ment with che Merchants Association
II Is not to publish any plague matter.
but II Is shrewd enough as a newspaper
not TO pooh-pooh the whole subject as
the Call and the Chronicle have done.

facts in regard 10 the action of the State
Board OF Health, which win show what
consummate liars the Call and Chron-
icle are.

LYNcRlNGs IN THE SOUTH.

Washington, Jan. SIN the House
today Mr.. Linney spoke on elections
and lynChings I'm the South. The lack
of free elections, he said was the only
inlirmity in our governmental system.
In exact proportion as people were de-
prived of their votes, he said, lynch
ings and transformations were prevalent.
Since 1891 there had been an average
of 40 lynchings each year In the
South.
White of North Carolina. the only
colored representative in the House.
said:
have investigated the lynchings in
the South and find that less than IL
per cent of them are due to the crime
Of rape; and desire to announce here
that If It were not for the assaults OF
white men upon black women here
would be less of the other class.
The public galleries contained many
COlored people. who applauded this ut
terance vigorously.
Williams of Mississippi made warm
defense of the action of certain South
ern States in DISTINGUISHING the ignor-
ant and illiterate. He stated upon his
honor that since 1895 no man had Decn
defeated in Office by fraud or force.
He frankly avowed that Mississippi
had sought by her Constitution to sup
press the ignorant and illiterate and
the Supreme Court had sustained the
constitutionality of her constitution.
In Mississippi, said he, the law had
been violated by murder, arson, rape,
but no man had ever been shot down
because he wanted to work.

Manauense Scandal.

Washington, Jan. 30.-A court of
inquiry will be convened to consider
the scandals in the case of the trans
port Manauense. This court will sug-
gest what proceedings by court-martial
shall be taken against the officers at
San Francisco who are responsible for
the terrible conditions which prevail
ed on the eastward trip of the Manau-
ense.
The Government will not settle with
the owners of the Manauense until the
responsibility for her breaking down
has been established. and this will
have the effect of forcing the appoint
ment of court of inquiry on her ar
rival at San Francisco
