bonic plague existed at the quarantine

case of plague at the station, although
three deaths occurred, two from beriberi.
When the steamship was sent to the
station five weeks ago, three cases Of
sickness developed among the crew
and shortly thereafter about a dozen
more were reported. The three cases
Created some suspicion among the quar-
antine officers and each patient was iso-
lated and the developments closely
watched. All three were pronounced
Eeriberi, but one of them showed synp-
tors Of plague in connection with beri-
kefi.
The three cases proved fatal, and DR.
Foster, the quarantine official, made a
thorough investigation, assisted by an
eminent specialist in the service of the
United States government at San Fran
cisco. Thirty days have elapsed since
the deaths occurred and no new cases
have developed. The Mango Maru was
released from quarantine today with

ders, which at one time threatened to
develop into a riot, attended the at

LUZON CLIMATE.
Americans Cannot Stand More Than
Two Years at q Time.


Two Years at a Time.
New York, March 10.-Dr. H. D. Nor
gan, of the United States navy, is in
this city. He has sent to the navy de-
partment report in which he strongly
recommends that the terms of office of
officers and men in the naval service
on duty in the Philippines shall be
made two instead of three years.
The climate there, said the doctor, is
very enervating and it's effects are
more seriously felt in the second rather
than in the first year. The men cannot
stand the strain of continuous service
there.
Il do not believe that the revolution
is at an end. The F'ilipinos are scatter
ed about the islands, mainly in Luzon,
in small bands, but it is generally un-
derstood they are under orders to con-
centrate at any given point when the
word is passed. 1 do not believe that
Aguinaldo is in China. 1t is my i'm
preston he is still in Luzon.
I notice much alram has been man
ifested in different parts of this coun-
try lest the bubonic plague be brought
here by bodies on the Hancock. There
is absolutely no reason for the slightest
fear. None of the dead on the Hancock

TANNER GOING SOUTH.
Executive to Be Absent From the
State Several Weeks.

Springfield, ILL.,, March 1O.-Governor
Tanner will leave the early part of next
week, possibly on Tuehday, for the south
where he expects to remain several
weeks to recuperate his health. The
governors condition has shown a
marked improvement during the last
few days, and it is thought that with q
change of climate and scenery he will
soon fully recover.
Mrs. Tanner and maid will accom-
pany him. AS yet their destination is
not known, but will probably not be an

governor is going out of the state to
rest, and get his mind free from bust
ness and politics. and this would be al
most impossible if his location was

Millions Owing to Flooded
Mines.

Washington, March 10-Under date of
Dawson City, January IA, Vice Consul
Morrison reports that 10 expeditions
have left Dawson for Cape Nome since
December A, last, and as soon as the
weather moderates many more will
start. The population of Dawson is g.,
600 less than last year. Late news from
Nome confirms the reports of the rich
ness of the district and announces new
finds in the interior but lack of fuel

Typhoid fever has appeared with in
creasing mortality.
In Dawson the revenue from liquor
permits for the year is placed at $780,,
600. Saloon licenses are worth 81, 500 per
annum. Prices are still up. The profits
on drugs are placed at 300 per cent, gro
ceries 200 per cent. hardware 400 per
cent Beer is worth 800 a barrel and
whisky from $40 to $50 per gallon. Ow-
ing to flooding of the mines the gold
output may be kept down. 1t is esti-
mated that between $25, 100000 and $780,
100000 will comprise the output of the
Dawson district.

that the ranchmen there are having no
little trouble with the wolves of that sec

intervals. During the past week there
have been two cases reported where the
wolves have attacked the homes of the
away after hard fighting, during which
a number have been killed. The wolves
have killed a number of cattle. They are
apparently very hungry and, going in
large droves, prove most formidable when

Scaling Walls Of Pekln.

Calvin Titus, Who Placed she First
Americas Flag on the wall, Writes OF
Hts Experience 20 Former Comrades
I'm Company X, Bennington.
Calvin P. Titus, the young soldier, for
merly a member Of Company K, Benning-
ton, who had the honor Of planting the
first American flag on the walls of Pekin,
has written an interesting story TO his for
mer comrades. He says: "In the battle in
which we took Pekin our company had the
honor to be the first to scale the walls, and
fate would have it that was the first one
up. When / looked over the walls into the
vast oriental city my lips refused TO open,
l was so stricken. Men and women who
had been penned there for SO days we're
crying out for aid / saw women faint for
Joy when they knew at last they had been
rescued. When We marched into the lega-
ton, where the people had been penned
up for 80 days, had to keep my mouth
shut or l would have cried like baby
How glad the women and men and chill
dren were to see us. Then we forgot the
forced marches, where men were raging
mad for want OF water, and from heat,
and thought only Of the ones we had saved.
That night we slept on the air, mud and
rain, and next morning took four of the
gates leading into the Forbidden City.
They would not allow us to take the last
one leading to the palace itself for some
reason or other. We blew the gates open
with the big guns and then rushed through
and at them. / was hit at the first gate.
Our battery was on the wall firing over
our heads at the centre gate when a de-
fective shell from one Of the guns burst
over u.s. A ragged piece went in under
my chin and gave me a scratch about an
inch long under my Adams apple. 1t went
through the next mans hat and hit the
next on the leg. Our company had two
killed and wounded, counting myself. My
partner, Bugler Baker, was hit in the
thigh"
