ST. PETERSBURG, November 49,
The Russian official world is anxious
regarding Emperor Nicholas, but there
is feeling of confidence that he will
recover. A foreign office official told
the correspondent of the Associated
Press last evening the. bulletins were
regarded as favorable. He called at
tention to the distinction between
typhus in the American sense of the
word and typhus as understood in Rus
STA, where the term corresponds to
typhoid in American Technology. Ty-
phoid is common, the official pointed
out, in all Russian cities, owing to the
defective hygienic arrangements, but it
is not feared in this country as it is
in the United States.
Moreover" continued the official,
"the Cars general health has been
good. Persons who have seen him fire.
quently and at close quarters during
the last few months give no credence
to the stories regarding his alleged
feebleness. They have not observed
the slightest indication of lingering in
jury from the sabre blow he received
in Japan. They utterly disbelieve the
assertion, often made abroad, that the
Gar is an epileptic."
Considerable surprise is expressed
that his majesty should have contract
ed a disease attributed to tainted
nouris hment. II appears, however,
that he is imprudent in his diet, does
not always follow medical direction,
and often drinks any water he can get
when walking or driving. The posi-
bility of his having contracted the dis
ease from milk is also considered. Yet
another source of typhoid infection in
Russia is quail, there being high med
icinal authority for the statement that
germs have been cultured from broiled
quails.
The news Of the Cars illness is grad
ually reaching the general populace,
and many sympathetic references to,
his condition are heard among the peo-
pie of st. Petersburg, who are appar-
emily greatly attached to the person of
the monarch.
Special prayers for his recovery were
offered to-day in the churches of st.
Petersburg, Moscow and Kharkow.

CINCINNATI, Ohio, November 49,
Bank Examiner Tucker took possession
on Sunday because of the panic in New
port that followed at once the publica-
ton of Browns absence and alleged
defalcations. The bank examiner post
ed notice that the bank would not be
opened tomorrow, pending investiga-
ton, but it is generally believed that
this proceeding on Sunday will not pre-
vent a stampede tomorrow, as the ex-
element in Newport up to late hour
tonight was intense. There are about
$500 depositors, among them being the
nine building associations which have
the savings of many poor people. These
classes talked more to-day about the
statements given out last Thursday and
since then than about Browns opera
tons. Brown wrote to woman in
Cincinnati that he was bound for South
America, but the Enquirer will say, to-
morrow that it has good authority for
alleging that Brown sailed from New
York yesterday and that his destination
is China.

There has been a good demand for
horses in White Horse during the past
few weeks and large number OF heavy
work animals have been sold in the
town. M. J. Heney placed in the hands
OF agents here about $50 of the horses
which were used in the building of the
White Pass & Yukon railway and every
one OF them has been sold. Robt. Lowe,
the commission merchant, negotiated
most of the sales, says the White Horse
Tribune.
Early this spring it looked as if horses
would be drug on the northern mar
ket, there being more in Dawson than
there seemed to be any actual necessity
for. But the Tanana rush and the COM
mencement OF work on several new
claims in the Hootalinqua, Big Salmon,
and Klondike districts where horses are
needed, thinned the market out and
