FEVER SITUATION AT 6 p. M.

New Orleans, October H.-This Is the fourth consecutive day that no yellow fever deaths have been reported, and Il Is taken as the best indication possible that the results of the fever campaign have been actual and not imaginary. At this time in 1878, the daily deaths were up in the thrties, and occasionally went up to the forties. The Saturday report would have closed with only five new cases but for two which were brought in at the closing time. Several suspicious cases have developed in an asylum up town near Peters avenue. but while 1t is possible to diagnose all but two or three of the cases as not yellow fever, and those are regarded as very doubt ful, nevertheless every possible precaution has been taken.
 The Emergency hospital closed It's doors today, the six remaining patients being discharged. They had all reached that stage where there was no danger in re- moval.
