FRANCE WAY INTERFERE.

Has a Little Bill Against Venezuela
Which She is Anxious 10 Collect
The French legation has notified tho
Venezuelan government that. In view
Of the convention In 1867, France was
allowed TO collect directly part OF the
revenues Of several customs houses
In Venezuela as n guarantee for her
diplomatic claims arising out OF tho
previous revolutions. France. 4 IN
said, renounced forever by the conven-
ton OF 1885 the exercise OF this right
on condition that the interest on this
debt be regularly paid. As this pay
ment has not been made since, without
asking the authorization or Germany,
England and Italy, France Intends TO
royivo her right OF direct collection.
Tho French charge d'affalres paid Wis
its TO the foreign ministers and twice
called on President Castro during
forty-eight hours. This activity on tho
part OF France evidently is In connec-
tion with her intention TO revive her
rights and is considered az an answer
TO tho attitude adopted by the allied
powers.

''YELL0W FEVER is
NOW A PLAYTHiNG."
Member of Surgeon General Wymnn's
Staff Makes Rema rkabIe Statement
on Result of Investigations.

REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Washington, July 23.-Yellow fever Is now
plaything.
This declaration was made to-day by one
Of the members of Surgeon General wv
mans staff, who has followed very closely
the work Of investigation of the cause and
prevention Of yellow fever that was taken
UP earnestly by various scientific depart
ments of the Government three years ago.
More than to any other department of the
Government It has fallen to the lot of the
Marine Hospital Service, Of which Surgeon
General Wyman is chief, to pursue this
work steadily and persistently, although all
OF the scientific bureaus have contributed
valuable aid to the result, which at last
has been attained.
By authority of Surgeon General Wyman.
bulletin has been issued on the subject,
which presents an elaborate review OF the
work done during the past year by the
commission OF experts sent to Vera Cruz
Mexico. by the Marine Hospital Service, to
study the disease.
1t Is confidently asserted by the highest
scientific authorities In Washington that
there is no longer cause to fear an outbreak
OF yellow fever in those regions Of the South
the such IN IS has
and commerce. To Doctor Herman B. Par
ker, Assistant Surgeon, United States Ma
rine Hospital Service. and Doctors George
T. Boyer and o. L. Pothier Of New Orleans
is due the credit for demonstrating beyond
reasonable doubt three propositions whose
practical Importance canot be overesti-
mated. viz:
1, That the cause OF yellow fever IS an
animal parasite. and not vegetable germ,
or bacterium.
.. That the disease is communicated only
by the bite Of mosquitoes.
g. That only one genus OF mosquitoes,
which is classified as Stegomyia Fosciata,
Is the host of the yellow fever parasite.
1t is expected that within six months the
commission will make another repor: to the
Government, which will wind up the work
and will so thoroughly cover every point
now In doubt as to fully convince the scien-
teraAat last, because its cause has been
defiMhely ascertained.
