YELLOW FEVER IN CUBA.
Deep Interest in the American Com
mkxiOn's RcpGrt,

HAVANA. Oct. 31.-Naturally deep in
| terest is felt here in the report OF The
American Yellow Fever Commission, charg-
ing the mosquito with the dissemination of
the disease. That theory has been arflently
advocated for years by DR.. Charles Finlay
of this city, and he has reason to be proud
over this foreign recognition of his belief.
first. in the preliminary report of the Liv-
erpool School of Tropical Medicine expedi-
ton, printed in the British Medical Jour
nal last month, and now by the American
Commission. Dr. Finlay. who has written
extensively on the subject. thinks that the
wide acceptance of the theory of malarial
fever transmission by the mosquito. scien-
tifcally known as the Anopheies, led to in
vestigation of his belief of yellow fever
transmission by the mosquito Culex.
This Culex mosquito. DR.. Agramonte, of
the American Commission, is reported as
saying, is found in the cities only. and thus
the mosquito theory fits in with the well
known freedom from fever of the rural ais
tricts as compared with the city. Making
practical application of the theory. DR.. Ag-
ramonte advises that yellow fever patients
be kept covered with mosquito netting and
that everyone in fever district use the
mosquito bar. Better yet, he adds, would
be to exterminate the mosquitoes, which
could be done by filling in all the otagnant
pools. or coating the surface of the water
with petroleum.
AS marked by the officially reported
number of cases on hand, the fever STU
alton remains about the same, the num-
Der of cases known to be under treatment
daily varying between 80 and 100. FOR
the month to yesterday the number of new
cacac rapOrted was 2I4. Fears
pressed for the result on the tourist in
dustry of the continued steady run of the
fever. Expectations had been entertained
of a profitable tourist season this winter,
and enquiries for quarters had justified
these expectations. Lately, however, the
questions as to accommodations have been
accompanied by enquiries as to the fever.
An instance was a letter from man in
Ohio who is promoting teachers excur-
sion to Cuba during the Christmas school
vacation, and who asked with evident anX-
iety as to the fever situation. He also
expressed an intention of abandoning the
project IF there is DANGER
Complaint is made in the local press OF
a use of the fever scare and the sanitary
requirements to practice eXtortion On
house owners. When the sanitary ofhcer5
inspect a building and recommend that
the cesspool be cleaned, the owner or oc-
cupant of the house must order the work
done within a certain number of days.
Only one kind OF cart is permitted to re-
move the filth, and these carts are owned
by a number of companies, which have
pooled on prices. One man reports that

TO FIGHT FOR MILLIONS.
Legal Contest Over the Estate of
Edgar c. Duryea.

FREEPORT, l.. l., Nov. What prom
ises to be a long and bitter litigation over
the millions of Edgar C. Duryea, the late
Glen Cove starch manufacturer. was begun
today before Surrogate Seabury here. One
Of the dead millionaire's daughters, Mrs.
Marcia Cox. instituted proceedings to have
the residuary estate placed in the hands OF
the daughters, thus taking it from their
cousins, the legatees.
When Edgar C. Duryea died he left the
principal Of his estate. valued at $1,000, 900,
TO his invalid son. Walter C. Duryea. Wal
ter is the youth who was successfully oper-
ated upon for broken neck. He is today
alive, the wonder of the medical profession,
and despite his broken neck looks as
though he might live for many years to
come.
In the Duryea will there was residuary
lesatee clause. leaving the residuary es-
tate TO Walter c. Duryea's cousins, Frank
and Louis Duryea. The two daughters
were given only nominal legacies.
To gain possession of the residuary es-
tate, estimated at Sl.OOoGC0 at Least, the
daughters began proceedings and later
dropped them. They had until this morn
ing to file briefs.
Instead of filing briefs today, T. Camp
bell Thompson. in behalf of Mrs Marcia
Cox, made motion to have the whole lit
igation reopened. Mr. Thompson alleges
that he has new evidence and new wit

The reelection Of President Mckinley in the
face of the general condemnation Of his policy
Is the fullest justification of tie battle the De-
n,ocracy has made in defence Of popular rights
battle that begins anew today and will continue
until it is won.
The enormous concentration of capital under
corporate control has become the dominant power
in this country. 1t controls Legislatures; it
controls the National Government. 1t controls
our election. Through its countless channels of
influence, by CORRUPTION intimidation, and mis-
representation OF every kind, it has compelled the
election Of lis chosen candidate against the DELHI
crate judgment OF the American people.
This is the solemn truth which the people have
to face today. Mr.. Mckinley's reelection is not
a sign OF popular approval. That he does not
mmand, as candid Republicans will themselves
admit Disguise it Under whatever name. it is
the achievement Of the money power alone, that
has tyrannized over the popular judgment. and,
whether by fair means by foul. has prevented
the free expression Of the popular will.
Imperialism in government goes hand in hand
with this tyranny Of money, that finds expression
in the trusts. The people have not approved;
they have been overawei. The false cry of danger
to business interests" has terrified and coercrd
men against their Judgment. against their inter
es:, against their convictions Of principle. and
the concentrated power OF great political or
ganizaticn controlled and guild in the interest of
the few against the many, has prevailed against
the higher aspirations Of American Democracy.

TO PREVENT COLLISIONS.
Meeting of the American Delegates
to the Maritime Conference.

| Recommendations for international rules
as to lights and signals for fishing vessels
to prevent collisions at sea. just submitted
by the boards of the North Sea nations OF
Europe to the Board Of American Dele
gates to the international Maritime Con-
ference of 1SS9-9O will be considered this
afternoon at a meeting of the board in the
office of the Bureau of Navigation here.
The question of fishing vessel code OF
lights and signals was the only point not
decided at the international conference. 1t
was necessary to put off deciding upon q
system until the fishing interests OF the
various nations had been consulted. This
has taken some time From the American
standpoint the recommendations are so
nearly in accord with the American code
now in use that they will probably be con-
sidered satisfactory The only suggestion
which may not meet with favor is that
| fishing vessels propelled by signals be
compelled to carry supply of red and
green pyrotechnic lights, which shall burn
for at least thirty seconds and shall be
shown according to the tack on which the
vessel is trawling. red port and green star
board tack on the approach of or to other
vessels in sufficient time to prevent COL
lisions. This, it is claimed would compel
fishermen to carry a large supply Of fire
pense and would not meet with favor.
Other recommendations which vary from
the existing rules as to lights and signals
for preventing collisions are of slight i'm
portance. Admiral Sampson, who is
member Of the board. has written a let
ter saying that he will be unable to at
tend the meeting. as his physician advises
him not to exert his strength to make the
trip to Washington.
Lieutenant Commander B. LCothman CT
the navy. another member, just returned
to Washington from Gloucester. Mass,
where he has consulted the owners of
many of the large fishing boats and will
report to the board how the recommends
lions for an international code are taken.
Other members of the board who will be
present are Rear Admiral r. Franklin, re-
tired; S. L. Kimball General Superinten-
dent of the Life Saving Service; Judge W.
w. Goodrich, of the New York Supreme
Court; Clement A. Griscom President of
the International Navigation Company.
and Capt. John w. Shockford, of New
York. Eugene T. Chamberlain. Commits
sioner of Navigation. will act as secretary
Of the board The meeting will wind up
the business for which the board was au-
thorized by act of Congress.
