THERE is NO ALLIANCE.

A WRITER in the Philadelphia
"A Ledger under the department
head Of "The Drift IN Politics" has
story to the effect that a oomblna-
ton has been arranged between Sem
ator Alice and the DuPonts. under
which the two senatorships are TO be
assigned at the next session OF The
Legislature.
such stories originate ia the brains
OF the writer's and require no other
foundation than the fact that story
on Delaware politics is needed. That
there win be a re-alignment in Repub-
ncan politics in Delaware is evident
from the fact that the element which
has 80 Ions kept the party split wide
opsn has disappeared.
There may be alliances between per-
sonr who have for years been in strong
antaronism but that an alliance win
be formed which will contemplate the
return of Alice to the Senate is im-
probable IN the FIRST place, he was
never the choice Of the people OF Del
aWare-not even OF his own faction.
since the men who elected him were
chosen TO vote for Addicks. And in
ths second place. he is far from beins
Senatorial timber.
Senator Alice had a rare opportunity
at the last session OF the legislature
He had pledged himself to help seeure
the election Of Senator Bairs successor
Ia man acceptable TO the Republic4ns
OF New Castle county.
Instead OF this, he threw all his force
into the movement to create dead
lock. and his influence with a few men
was sufhcient to keep a Senator from
being elected.
Senator Alice is not in a position to
make an alliance with anybody and
were he to make It, there are ths Re
publicans Of Sussex and Kent ,or him
to reckon with It's too early yet Tor
alliances any way.

Now the old rule which the law re-
cognized was that pedestrians had the
right Of may, and that conveyanoes of

are bound 10 respect. In the large
ciues. for instance people cross streets
whenever or however they may. and in
doing SO take their lives in their own
hands. AS a matter OF fact. the theory

way and that the pedestrian must
worm his way through. running and
lodging. and all at his own peril Per-

Petty orrenses against the police regu-
lations by people in the employ of the
various embassies and legations have
given the state Department and the po-
lice Of the city more annoyance this sum-
mer than usual Almost invariably these
offenses rela.n to the speed Of automo-
biles. Members of the diplomatic corps
and their employees, while attending upon
them personally. are exempt from arrest
for offenses that would bring an ordinary
American citizen into the police court.
These employees as a rule are Americans
who delight TO take advantage Of their
temporary immunity and enjoy the i'm
potent wrath Of the guardians Of the
peace.
The latest episode Of this character was
connected with the ohaffeur OF Count
Weuckhein Of the Austrian embassy. who

gradually assuming the immense pro
portions. which il reaches in midsum

that has touched Cairo for the past
two weeks, on either OF the several
roads operating through this city, has
been occupied to the limit People in
search of cool weather and pleasant
summer resorts form the bulk of this
increased traffic.
OF the summer resort seekers Cairo
furnishes its fun quota. Not a day
passes that each OF the lines do not
sell a few tickets TO eastern, north
ern or western points to local parties.
While the greater number so north
and east, the weastern traffic this year
has been unequalled On account OF
the Portland fair, many are going
west to attend the exposition and at
the same time visit Denver, Colorado
Springs, the Yellowstone Park and
points of interest along the western
coast of California.
The western trip is made the most
delightful by the fact that the rail
roads offer diverse ways OF going and
returning, with excellent stop over
privileges.
The east and north though. as usual,
attract their share of the summer tour
lists
Many people who want pleasant
vacation and yet do not want to spend
their bank accounts and their time at
some OF the popular resorts are taking
in the low rates offered by the various
steamboats,, running on the Ohio and

New Orleans on special service duty,
in connection with the discovery there
of yellow fever.
DR.. Guiteras is a renowned yellow
fever expert and has seen much ser

During his absence from the city,
DR.. w. C. Clarke is in charge of the
Marine Hospital and the patients
there
Press dispatches state that six per-
sons have died of the malady in New
Orleans and that seven other cases,
which as yet have not proved fatal,
are officially reported.
Texas and Mississippi have deelar-
ed quarantine against the city. and
Mobile, Ala, has refused to allow per-
sons from New Orleans to disembark
at the port or TO come in by railway.
A post-mortem examination of the
body of one of the suspected yellow
fever victims was held by the physi-
clans comprising the State and City
Boards of Health, and after q consul
tation they sent out this verdict:
Autopsy discloses existence Of vel
low fever. Findings positive.
It was also announced that there
aad been 10 cases and 6 deaths, but
that they all could be traced to one
source, confined to the Italian district
on Charles street, where these fam
lies live huddled up in close quar-
ters and in filth.
The men work on Central American
banana ships. and 1t is said the in
lection first came from that source.
DR.. Souchon, president of the State
Board of Health. In statement at
O'Clock, says the disease has not
spread from this one locality, and
hat 1t will be confined there.
