IT'S NOT ANTI FOREIGN
Assault on Christian Churches was
Only an Incident in the Expression
of the Populace OF its Strong Dis
approval.

Oyster Bay, Sept. IA definite re-
sumo of the conditions in Toxic is Civ
en- in a cabIegram from Minister Girls
com to the secretary OF state which
was transmitted today to President
Roosevelt. TIE cablegran follows:
Toxic Sept 10. 1905.-The violence
toward a few foreigners and the at
tacks on Christian churches reported
in ny previous kilograms should not
be considered TO indicate any general
anti-foreign or anti Christian feeling.
The former was quite incidental and
the latter due to sporadic antagonism
to the Russian church and some native
Christians. The mob offered to spare
one American church if the minister
could show an American flag; unfor-
tUnately he could not.
Newspapers have during many
months raised popular expectation 50
high that intense dissatisfaction with
the terms of peace resulted. The SEN
timent among army, navy and nobility,
however, is understood to be more con-
servative. Six newspapers have been
suspended. Martial law probably viii

The New Orleans Epidemic
ReSiStS Expulsion
INCREASING NEW CASES
A DisCOuraging Condition Attributed
to Over Confidence People
Appealed TO to Regard Themselves
as Less Secure.

New Orleans, Sept. 1.-THE yellow
fever here is not declining as steadily
as it was a couple of weeks ago. The
death rate continues to be exceedingly
low because the fever is now only oc-
CasiOnally found among Italians but
there are more new cases reported daily
than the marine hospital authorities
expected would be reported at this
time. over confidence is responsible
for the check in the excellent progress
heretofore made. The consequence has
been much sickness that could
have been guarded against if ordinary
precautions had been taken. Appeals
are made to the people to arouse them
selves from the position of false Sc
curity.
The situation at Tauulah and Lake
Providence is now causing the state
board of health more concern than any
where else in the state. The fact that
Dr. TichenOr has asked to be with
drawn from the former place has
brought TO light the demoralized cOndi-
ton OF affairs that prevails there. The
town is of less than 1000 population
but the fever generally distributed over
it. is virulent in type, and there is not
sufficient scientific help to handle al
who are i'll. Learning of the conditions
there Dr. Charles Chassaignac, presi-
dent of the Polytechnic and an eminenr
physician of New Orleans. today Went
to President Souchon and volunteered
to go to Tallulah to take charge.
Doctor Won EzdOrf has also been di-
rected to proceed to Tallulah, and the
state board today sent three addiuOna
nurses to that point.

CONSTRUCTING AMBLER LAW.
Liquor Dealers Lawyers Claim Build
ing Authorities make Mistake.

New York, Sept. 11.-Justice DOwl-
ing of the supreme court today reserV-
ed his decision on an application to
enjoin E. H. Healy, deputy excise COM
missioner and Isaac A. Hopper, super
intendent of buildings, from interfering
with the liquor business carried on by
Cornelius Delany at No. 9SS Eighth
avenue. Delany's certificate was re-
vozed by Commissioner HeaIy on the
report of Superintendent Hopper that
his Raines law hotel did not comply
!. with the requirements of the building
code.
Attorneys for Delany declared that
Commissioner Healy had acted unjusti-
fiably in revOking their clients license.
They maintained that every one of the
necessary ten rooms in the hotel was
in accord with the building code, and
that superintendent Hopper's report
was in error. For this reason, they
contended, HeaIy had no power to re-
yoke the certificate under the prOvi-
sions of the Amber law.
