Conditions a, Cape Nome.

Washington, July e5.-SNrgeon General
Ssernberg received report today from
Surgeon +. q. Egbert Of the navy, dated
Nome Harbor, Alaska, June 20, which
gives details Of the conditions existing at
that place. lie says that within two or
three weeks the population has increased
from goo to 1900, with tents and build.
iRgs irregularly located along the beach.
The sanitary conditions were crude in
the first place and with the influx of the
new population became worse. He de-
seribes a horrible condition existing, as
there is no method Of cleaning up the town
and no provision for the destruction Of
accumulations Of garbage and filth. The
thirst for gold existing among the people
who have gone to Nome City outwcighs
everything else and no attention is paid
to sanitary conditions
Reports of cases Of enteric fever vary
from lbs TO 7OO There have been Is cases
Of smallpox and one death. MeAsels have
also broken out.

Lamb are dead and Policeman August T.
Mora is in the hospital suffering from three
wounds received in an encounter last night
with two desperate negroes, Leonard Pierce
and Robert Charles.
The officers were attempting to arrest
the two negroes when the latter opened
fire. A fusilade followed, during which
Policeman Mora was severely wounded.
Pierre finally surrendered, but Charles,
though wounded, escaped. Charles was
traced and found later in the night by a
squad Of officers
The negro shot his way through the Of.
icers, killing Day and Lamb and again
escaped. The shooting has caused great
excitement and a hundred policemen and
a vast crowd Of citizens armed with TO
volNers and shot guns and rifles are
searching for Charles, who will doubtless
be killed on sight

Cost Of Tea Advancing.

New York, July s3.-The trouble in
China is already influencing the wholesale
tea market Of this country. Within the
last few days the price of tea has ad-
Vanced from to cents pound and still
further increases seem likely inasmuch as
with the continuance Of the difficulties in
China it will cost more to import When
the outbreak began il was computed that
there were about ss!OO0,0OO pounds Of tea
in this country. That stock is being rap
idly bought up by retailers, and should the
hostilities extend to the tea growing dis
tricts rapid rise in the price Of the com.
modify will result. The great tea pro-
ducing centers OF China, however, have
not yet been threatened with the strife in
which the Boxers are engaged.
