President Roosevelt's Visit to
the South.
TWO DATES NOT SET
WHEN HE WILL GO TO NEW Or
LEANS UNDETERMINED.
Has Been Urged to Omit That City
on Account of the Yellow
Fever Epidemic.

OYSTER BAY, n. Y, September 23.-Ar-
rangements for the trip of President Roose-
welt through the south pract tically have been
completed except those pertaining to his
visit to New Orleans and Little Rock, Ark.
On account of the prevalence of yellow
fever in New Orleans. 1t is not unlikely that
the President may defer his visit to that
city until later time, in which event he
would visit Little Rock at the same time.
He is being urged not to go to New Orleans
so long as the yellow fever epidemic con-
tinues there, but he has received assur-
ances that the fever will be stamped out
before the tentative date of his visit, Octo-
ber 81.
A suggestion was made recently that on
account of the quarantine placed by the au-
thorities of Arkansas on passengers from
New Orleans the President should visit Lit
tie Rock before going to New Orleans. This
idea is in the minds of the Arkansas au-
thorities as evidenced by the following tel
egram from the mayor of New Orleans.
NEW ORLEANS. La. September q, 1905.
Hon. Theodore Roosevelt.
President of the United States,
Oyster Bay.
Referring my telegram of the 18th In
slant, ! have the honor to report that our

SaS aulnOTllltS mas llildily IOSuitcu III NiiC
following message, dated Little Rock, Sep
tember 90 and addressed to DR.. j. HI.
White, surgeon in charge, marine hospital
and public health service here:
Would 1t not be possible for President
Roosevelt tc arrange 10 come to Louisiana
after visiting Arkansas? Impossible to say
with present outlook that our quarantine
will be raised by October 90
(Signed) "'J. P. RUNYAN,
President Board of Health"
s'As the average date of first frost in Ar
kansas is October II, it seems reasonably
certain that any quarantine against yellow
fever will be raised by October Is at latest.
tSigned) MARTIN BEHRMAN,
Mayor, City of New Orleans"
1t was announced officially tonight that IL
the quarantine regulations of other states
should prevent the Presidents entrance
into Arkansas on his return to Washington
by rail, after having visited New Orleans,
he may consider the plan of making New
Orleans the final stop on his trip and re-
turning from there to Washington by sea.
However, no definite plans have been made
for the New Orleans and Little Rock portion
of the trip and they viii not be completed
for two weeks.

ANx1oUsLY AWAITING RESULT.
Hungarian Leaders Confer With the
Emperor

VIENNA, September. 23.-The result of
the audience of the k,lg-emperor today by
the leaders of the Hungarian coalition par
ties is anxiously awaited. The interview
seems not TO have brought the crisis any
nearer solution, and even the king-em-
peror's concession TO the objection Of the
leaders to entering into negotiations with
Count Goluchowski, the minister of the i'm
perial and royal house, relative to the for
nation of Hungarian cabinet and his sub
stitution of Count Czraky for the minister
is not thought likely to make any d fer
Nence in the result.
Francis kossuth, leader of the coalition
element who was in a pessmistlc mood,
declared in interview that 1t was quite
imI ossible that the parliamentary majority
should take its program from the crown.
The majority. he said, was elected upon
certain platform, and to this II must hold,
and IL IL did not do so it could not hold
out for twentyfour hours.
Count Apponyi said:
THE will of the nation will always pre-
vail. The present struggle may continue
six months, but the nation certainly VII be
victorious in the end"

EMPLOYEES PAY DAY
PLAN FOR COMPLIANCE WITH
CONTROLLERS DECISION.

Commissioner West yesterday conferred
with auditor Garrison, Deputy Auditor
Tweedale and Disbursing Officer Rogers
concerning the order of the controller of
the treasury relating to the payment in the
future of the salaries of annual employees
of the government. While the Commits
sioners have not yet been advised that the
order Of the controller relates to the Dis
trlct government, the fact that all pay
ments by the local authorities are under
treasury rulings would seem to indicate
that the controllers decision is applicable
to District payments. The conditions in
municipality like the District of Colum-
bia are, of course, very different from those
which. obtain in the departments and the
conference was called by Commissioner
West for the purpose of devisng the best
methods Of meeting the controllers wishes
without causing too great Inconvenience
to the District employees ,...-zz
+ The disbursing officer. who handles nearly
100000 a month, pays OF, IN round NUM-
bers, about 1900 employees, of whom 4,OOO
are on the annual roll and 1900 are per
diem. The latter are almost exclusively
laborers employed In the water sewer
street cleaning and street Improvement de-
partmentS, and regarding the payment of
these men no difficulty will be experienced.
inasmuch as they have never been paid
until after their work had been performed
and proper certificate of that fact submit
ted. In the case of the school teachers
numbering 100, it has been the custom
for the secretary to the school board to
certify the rolls about the goth of the
! month, allowing ten days for their audit
and the preparation of the checks, which
must be signed by the disbursing officer
and countersigned by the auditor. The
checks have been delivered on the first
OF the month in all cases where DEATH
resignation or dismissal had not interyened

Mr.. Vests Suggestion.

Commissioner West suggested that the
plan now in existence be followed with tie
important modification that the pay rolls
should not be certified until the end of
the month, when the work had been actu-
ally performed. In other words. the pay
rolls are 10 be submitted earlier in the
month and the 1900 checks written and
then held until the rolls have been proper
iy certified. when the checks may be de-
hvered. Unless plan of this kind Is
adopted. the school teachers will not get
their money until the 10th of the month and
the salaries of the policemen and firemen
will also be held up for an equal length of
time. The payment of the 1908 employees
of the District government is made BY the
disbursing officer, two clerks and a no.
lceman, the principal duty of the latter
being to accompany the disbursing officer
when he carries large sums of money TO
various points of the city for the payment
of employees.

GAS WINS STRUGGLE
Woman Dies After Being in
State of Coma Sixteen Days

NEW YORK, March 26.-Mrs. James
Huestis of White Plains, n. Y, who for
the last sixteen days has been in a
state of coma in the Presbyterian hos
pital as the result of asphyxiation, died
today
Mrs. Huestis and her daughter Lucia
were taken to the hospital from the
residence of friends whom they had
been visiting, where they were found
one morning overcome by gas. In spite
Of all that could be done for their re-
lief. the daughter died three days ago
and the mother succumbed today.
The coroner's physician, who per-
formed the autopsy on the body Of
Mrs. Huestis today. reported that he
found nothing suspicious. or even re-
markable, in the case to distinguish il
from ordinary cases of gas poisoning.
DIR. A p. Oliver, assistant Superin-
tendent at the Presbyterian hospital,
stated that the woman had died from
gas poisoning and that the case was
not an unusual one. He also said that
the coma of the mother and daughter
in this case was not unusually pro-
longed for patients suffering from gas
poisoning.
Coroner Scholer differed with Dr.
Oliver, saying that ii was a remarka-
BILE length of time for victims of gas
poisoning to remain in state of coma,
although IL was not unprecedented.
The continuance of coma, he said,
depended to a great extent upon the
condition of the patient physically and
the amount of gas inhaled.
