FEVER LuRks I'M BAYous.
Thlrty-Hve Gases of yellow Fever are
Found In a Colony Of Fisher
men-Much Suffering.

New Orleans, Aug. 30.-The most
important development of the yellow
fever situation yesterday was the re-
port of DR.. Milo Brady, who had been
sent by the state board of health on a
tour of inspection of the bayous and
lakes in Jefferson parish, where there
ere many settlements of fishermen in
constant communication with New Or
leans. DR.. Brady made the trip with
DR.. Stanley, of North Dakota, in
launch loaned by the latter. Without
completing their investigation they
turned up S5 cases of yellow fever,
mostly along Bayou Barataria learned
that deaths had occurred and found
much suffering.
The patients suffering with the dis
ease are principally Portuguese and
Spaniards. The sick were without
medical attendance, without nurses
and in most cases without medicines,
the appearance of the fever forcing
many of them to abandon their trips
to the city.
After Dr. Brady had made his report
the state board decided to organize
Immediately a relief party consisting
of a physician and two nurses. A
large supply of medicines and pro-
visions also will be forwarded and the
state board will keep in constant touch
with the situation in the effort to con-
troll the sickness. All these cases are
in Jefferson parish.
Natchez. Miss, Aug. 30.-Dr Eugene
Wasdin, of the marine hospital serv-
ice, arrived here Tuesday and after a
careful study of IA patients pronounc-
ed nine yellow fever and five SUSPECT
Gus. Seven of the pronounced cases
are negroes and all are within radius
of few blocks in the city.
Bankers believe that Russia will make
liberal compensation to Japan, al
though this may be provided for in a
separate understanding. Russia has
made all preparations for placing part
of loan here and Japan contemplates
raising more money to pay internal
obligations.
