The Two Patients Have Not Been
Outside the City for Months and
Mystery Surrounds the
Cases.
(By the Associated Press.)

Bringing $4,000 punches of bananas
the first cargo entering heref or sew
eral weeks, the steamer Esparta, from
Por Limon, landed today at Port
Chalmette and Immediately began the
discharge of her cargo into screened
cars to be taken west by the Illinois
Central Railroad. Laborers to handle
the fruit were carried to Chalmette in
barges from New Orleans and the
work of unloading and shipment was
under the direct supervision of the
Marine Hospital Service. 1t is expect
ed that New Orleans will be able at
once to relieve any fruit famine ex-
listing in the West.
80 active have been the ward organ
izations and so energetic the police
that few. if any cisterns have escaped
screening. and the thoroughness with
which the work has been carried out
explains why every day now empha-
sizes the opinion of physicians that
yellow fever is about under control in
New Orleans.
Among the list of stricken today are
two physicians, making four in all who
have succumbed to yellow fever. TIL"
latest victims are DR.. J. T. Wolfe, who
live sbclow Canal street, and has had
large practice among the yellow
fever patients in that quarter and DR..
l.. A. Meraux, health officer at st. Ber-
nard Parish.
DR. c. NJ. Stanley, of North Dakota.
and DR.. w NJ. Richards, of New Or
leans, today left for Barataria to seek
to stamp out yellow fever in forty
mile strip. Nurses and provisions
were taken along.

with Emperor Nicholas at Krasnoye-

but no answer has yet been received.
There is reason IN believe however.
that General Rudigr after confrri.
with the Emperor sent a messsLca to
General Linevitch concerning an ar
mis- tice. 1t is impossible to learn just
what the general said, but the War
Office is most desfrous of averting any
engagement which might result in
needless loss of life.
1t was learned today that the first
official telegram from NJ. Witue an

Foreign Office at II o'clock last night.

Ia Obra haya sldo va traducida.
Hace ada muy POGO tempo que ha
sido estrenada en- la Opera Comica de
Paris. Ell interes por conocerla resi-
dia, 4 pesar de tratarse de una conc
dia lirica. no en- Ia m1sica, sino en- Ia
letra. Ella una obra postuma de Emf
lilo Zola.
Consta de cinco actos: el primero
pasa en- una panaderia de noche, la
salida de los teatros: el segundO en-
una tienda de juguetes; el tercero en-
el mercsdo de flores de la Magdalena;
ell Cuarto en- la tahona, en- un sotano;
ell quinto nuevamente en- la p:naderla
pero por la maflana.
La escena esta siempre animada por
un continue vaiven de personajes Sc r
cundarios: compradores, paseantes, GU
riosos, desocupados, clientes. Pcro ell
asunto dc la obra es sencillo.
El panadero Francisco Delagrage
esta casado con Magdalena Labaume:
AuS uu ma 6ll4lllOHl ~ al CuC la ODIlSO ou
padre; pueo ella habla antes cedi 10 al
amor de TN primo suyo.
Este primo ha muerto va, pero de
aquellos amores queda un nifio, Jorge,
ly Magdalena va todos los martes a
verle. Estas ausencias regulares la
ma la atencion de Francisco.
Magdalena acaba por confesarselo
todo, y el marido. presa de los celos
del pasado, la obliga a .elegir entire el
Iy Jorge.
Ella resuelve no apartarse de su
hijo; pero al fin V al cabo, Magdale-
ma y Jorge Sc amaban entrafiable-
mente y no pueden vivir separados
Francisco transige consiente en-
adaptar Jorge.
A1n cuando la mtisica ha sdo reci-
bida con aplauso, las crlticas han dicho
que ell talento de su autor Alfredo
Bruneau. no es adecuado esta clase
de asun:os, sino los tragicos. Asf
los momentos mas dram aticos de la
obra son los que han inspirado los me
jores trozos de la partitura.
