New Orleans, La, Aug. 20.-Verily

as the fumes pervaded our city from
northern limits into the gulf and from
the east to the fartherest nook west.
Nothing was over looked, every thing
Twas fumigated, the sky-scrapers, the

ed, door were fastened, the pictures
covered, while sitting odors and yell
low smoke pervaded the atmosphere.
From the barracks to Carrollton, it
is estimated that thirty-five tons of
sulphur was burned That forty-fve
of the sixty-eight thousand premises
in the city we're cleansed of mosqui-
toes. The remaining twenty odd thou

part to persons who have left for the
summer or other reasons, and whose
homes are shut up. In some wards,
such places were broken into today,
and fumigated by the neighbors.

GREAT INDIRECT RESULTS

The greatest good that will grow out of the late var between Russia and Japan will not be it's bearing on the Oriental questions which caused the conflict, nor will it be manifested in the terms oi peace that will be agreed to and signed by representatives Of the re- cent belligersnts oue of these days The effect the var has had upon the Russian people and the conditions that surround them is the result that will count most iu the march of progress,
 The peop'e of Russia have gained more for personal liberty in the last wear than they gained in the last cen tury. They can now worship as their conscience dictates and they can ex- preSs themselves without fear in a manner that would have meant the h.ngmsn's moose or exile before the beginning oi the recent var.
 Nor is that all. Among those who are demanding constitutional govern ment and crying out against the Rus sian bureaucracy now are those of the nobility and the upper classes. That vas not the case before. The recent address which was joined in by the Eemstvos of the nation and the lealing municipalities, including the official legislative bodies of Moscow and St. Petersburg, will be presented to the czar by Count Hayden and NJ. Shipof, two of the most powerful and best re- spected men of the country, This ad- dress is a remarkable document for what it says and how it says it ss we'll ss for those who are behind it, It bids fair to become historical. The custom ary phrases of respect at the opening and the closing are omitted and it is otherwise unceremonious, employing the direct personal pronoun.
 The address arraigns the bureaucracy and reminds the emp,ror that his pledge to convoke a national assembly is slow of ful6llment.
 It says the country is on the verge ot civil war and even ventures to criticise q royal measure, coutras ing the iu' crease of the police power by the ukase issued last Sunday with a weakening ot the administrative process which the country had been led to expect.
 The address urges the summoning oI national assembly that the war may become national or cease, aud concludes with solemn reminder of the sover- eign's duty to God and the fatherlaud, and s prayer for action before it is too late,
