NO CHECK TO SMALLPOX.
London Fears Epidemic Will Keep Peo-
ple From Coronation.

special to the New York Sun from Lon
day Sunday says: The smallpox epidemic
in London shows no signs of abatement. In
the thirty-three weeks since the beginning
Of the outbreak there have been 76S dea tbs.
There were eighty last week, which is more
than in any preceding week. Yesterday
forty-three fresh cases We're recorded. or
the deaths last week forty-three were those
of persons who had been vaccinated. but
there is no information regarding their
having been recently vaccinated again.
The following figures. which in
cordance with other statistics, seem to
show the value of infant vaccination and
the need of revacciration Of persons about
the age Of twenty. OF a total OF i6J deaths.
4O0 were those Of yaccnated persons and
90 Of the dead had not been vaccinated.
Regarding Seventyfour there is no definite
statement. or the 400 yaccinatei people
who died only forty-seven were under
twenty years of age. while of the 2.G un-
vaccnated people 224 were below ~. or
the 30 deaths In the last week - Were
above 20.
The failure to check the epidemic Is caus
ing disquietude and arOusing fears that the
success of the coronation season may be
affected and visitors kept away from the
capital. Tradesmen and others. however.
are more pertufbed on account of what Is
far more likely than this result. namely,
the constant reports of enormous prices de-
manded for accommodation in June and for
seats along the professional route. Busi-
ness in this direction is still slack.

MR.. LEE TO COMMISSIONERS.
Submits Objections to Plan of Extend
ing 18th and 14th Streets.

Mr.. Blair Lee has forwarded to the Dis
trct Commissioners a copy OF a letter
which he recently sent to Senator McMil-
Ian on behalf of the Brightwood Citizens
Association and the Washington City Or
phan Asylum, and other proposed donors OF
land in 14th and 18th streets extended. The
letter submits objections to the Comnlis
sioners reports on the bill providing for the
extension of the two thoroughfares In
question. In explaining the circular letter
Mr.. Lee says to the Commissioners:
I'm my judgment it would be impossible
to secure dona tions on the basis suggested
in your report, Is per cent of each right of
way, without any assurance Of the begin
ning Of an improvement. AS l am advised
it will be also impossible to secure the do
nation of the entire right OF way of either
street. as suggested In an amendment to
the District appropriation bill, proposed by
Senator Mcmillan in the Senate March Ii.
by which he proposes to provide $4,000 for
the purpose Of physically opening 14th
street, on the condition that all OF the land
for the extension of said street within the
limits named be donated.
Il have advised you, and also Senator
Mcmillan, that there is small percentage,
L. per cent. OF this right of way. which APP
parently the owners are unwilling to do
nate. 1t seems unfortunate. with SO much
unanimity OF opinion for the opening Of
these important streets, that conditions pre-
cedent which are feasible should be re-
jected. and that conditions precedent which
are impossible should be suggested. 1 trust
they will not be insisted on.
"Your honorable board may feel some
what constrained by your former practice
in matters of street extension and may look
with doubt upon any amendments or
changes. however advantageous which
have not yet been put to practical test.
The suggestions made. however. in connec-
tion with the new proposed method would

crease In the promptness with which streets
may hereafter be extended. They are In
the interest of the municipality and citizens

Senate committee, where they are now

CAPT. HoBsoN's ADDRESS.
Discusses S'Our Country at Meeting
Of Bows.

An address TO the Eoys yesterday afternoon
at the Y. NJ. c. A. building was given by
Captain r. P. HoDson, who spoke on Our
Country Abou. 500 boys and men were
present and listened intently to the stirring
address. Captain Hobson is stationed at the
Charleston exposition. where he has charge
! Of the government naval display.
The speaker stated in his opening re-
marks that few people realize the immense
possibilities of the United States. He said

world, he said. offers such a field for scien-
titic and industrial attainment He also
spoke of the privileges the people of the
United States enjoy as compared to the re-
straints imposed by other governments.
This country said Capt Hobson, has

is famine In Russia, 1t is the United

food they crave. When any dread calamity

HAVANA. March 13. 1902
There are two American views of the Gu
ban problem. One Is had in the United
States. Another view Is had here. Nat
urally, the perspective IS not quite the
same.
I heard an American call the situation,
as he saw it in Cuba, 1.-The inside out view.
He meant that the people in the island. not
simply the Cubans. but the Spaniards and
the other Europeans. and also his own
countrymen. had their own way Of looking
at things. He was beginning TO look at
them in the same manner
Americans In Cuba are so many just now
that what they see and hear counts. With
out previous warning they came down on
the island this winter, not like locusts. but
like honey bees. Instead of devouring the
substance of the land, their pocket books

Plenty of Money to Spend.
All of the newcomers have money to
spend. The hotel keepers get the most of
it, and promptly put up prices ~ per cent.
This is the third increase nf the sort since
the military occupation. The visitors pay
the charges without growing. They are
having a good time because they have just
found out what a world of tropical wonder
the Island oe Cuba is. Old settlers in the
American colony do not begrudge them
their enjoyment. 1t is the first Season in
which they have not had cause to feel
ashamed of the most of their countrymen
who thought that since the flag was up
they would come down and under it's folds
gather in the loose change which a country
that had suffered war and desolation might
have lying around.
Instead the class of Americans now in
Cuba. and which is still coming is spending
it's own money. and where ii looks for !usi-
ness opportunities has the idea of making
real investments instead of f1oa ting cent
per cent schemes. Every remarks on
the substantial character of the American
risitors-sOlid men, with their families. who
put up with the inconvenieuces of over
crowding without murmuring. because they
find enjoyment enough to compensate for
the lack of personal comfort.
