WAR BETWEEN THE STATES.
Louisiana and Mississippi at Logger
heads Over the Over Quarantine.

Memphis. Aug. IA special to the
ComEerciaI-Appea from Baton Rouge,
La saws: A clash between the Mis-
sissippi and Louisiana authorities over
quarantine regulations is imminent. a
private dispatch was received in this
city today stating that Mississippi SOL
diers, employed as quarantine guards,
had invaded Louisiana with arms and
that boats were patrolling the mouth
of Rigolets lake and Pearl river off
the Louisiana coast, to prevent Louisi-
ana boats from leaving.
Governor Blanchard directed Briga-
dier General Perraliat, of his staff, and
Captain J. w Bostwick, commanding
the states naval militia. to investigate
and report. Governor Blanchard also
teIegraphed Governor Vardaman of
Mississippi:
"I have reliable information that
Mississippi quarantine guards, armed,
have crossed over to the Louisiana side
at Pearl river. I do not believe this
was on orders, but that it was thought
less conduct merely of few persons.
To obviate unfavorable comment and
friction, please give orders that your
guards remain on their own side Of the
line"
Late this afternoon Governor Blan-
chard received the following telegram
from President Souchen of the state
board of health: "a patrol boat of the
state of Mississippi patrolled Lake
Borgne and after prohibiting fisher
men from fishing in the lake, is now
guarding the exit of Lake BOrgne CO
nal. preventing any boat from coming
out This is an unwarrantable usur-
patton and invasion of Louisiana wat
ers and our attorney ADVISES me to
ask you to wire the proper authorities
in Washington at once to intervene
or to take the matters in hand your
self
Governor Blanchard then telegraph
ed Governor VardamaE of Mississippi:
"Have information that Mississippi
patrols have forbidden fishermen from
fishing in Lake Borgne and are now
guarding the exit of the lake at the
canal preventing boats from coming
out Is this by your orders, or OF
those of the health authorities of your
state? No such state of affairs can
be tolerated. You have 9t right to
prohibit boats landing on Mississippi
shores, but not from navigating lakes,
sounds and gulf channels, which are
navigable waters of the United
States" Governor Blanchard also
telegraphed President Souchen that he
will take prompt steps to protect Lou

and SlidelI are reported to be filed,
though those who occupy them are
uncertain as to whether they can reach
their destinations when the period of
detention is up. People who live in
the infected district here find difficulty
in getting away at all. A gentleman
who applied for health certificate,
giving Europe as his destination was
refused yesterday because of his resi-
dence in this quarter.
The public is being impressed with
the fact that, while doctors generally
are convinced that the best possible
treatment for the sick is obtainable at
the Emergency hospital, there is no
intention to force patients to go there
whose families feel that they can prop
erly be treated at home. This is be-
ing done to induce the prompt report
of cases of fever in their incipient
stages. So far as the health author
tiles are concerned, they say that ev-
cry case, even of suspicious fever, is
now being promptly reported No re-
ports have come today Of cases outside
of New Orleans which might have de-
veloped from the Italians who scat
tered when the health boards first
started in to treat the disease.
So vigilant have been the local au-
thoritics in all the small towns of
Louisiana and other states that it is
not believed that many more such
cases will be reported.
The relations between the states Of
Louisiana and Mississippi have reach
ed an acute stage, and from indications
tonight it will be a change from inter
views about the concealment Of cases
to much more serious matter. From
information that has come to hand, the
dignity of the state of Louisiana has
been offended by an armed invasion
from the sister state, and this morning
Governor Blanchard communicated
with the captain of the naval brigade,
which has a fully equipped gunboat,
with a view of having it dispatched to
the borders to protect Louisiana citi-
zens from further indignities. Missis-
sippi has five armed boats patrOlling
the coast to prevent fishermen from
breaking through the quarantine lines
A CASE AT SHREVEPORT.
Shreveport, La, Aug. Barney
Tracy, a travelling man of Chicago, is
in the detention camp just outside the
corporate limits of this city suffering
from yellow fever. There are no other
cases in the detention camp nor any
cases in the city. The Infection has
been traced directly to New Orleans,
although Tracy spent but a few hours
in that city. When the existence Of
the disease at the doors of the city
became known today through an Off
cial diagnos there was almost a pan
ic. several hundred people leaving on
outgoing trains.

the rate of wages it would pay was
final, and they could accept it or leave
the service.
The Great Northern officials took
practically the same stand toward their
employees last night thus throwing
confusion into the ranks of the teleg-
raphers, who hardly expected such a
move. The only chance of an adjust
ment of the trouble rests with Presi-
dent ]. J. Hill, who is in New York,
and to whom President Perham of the
railway telegraphers appealed in a tel
egram last night Just how many men
have refused to consider the terms Of
fered by the roads is uncertain. Until
1880 this afternoon no definite reports
had been received at the headquarters
of either road.
The orders affect about $50 operators
and agents on the Great Northern and
about 1900 on the Northern Pacific.
st. Paul. Aug. IA general strike OF
the telegraphers on the lines of the
Great Northern and Northern Pacific
railways was ordered at II o'clock to-

der of Railroad Telegraphers. Presi-
dent Perham is confident that by to-
morrow 90 per cent of the operators
viii be out.
According to ofcials of the tclegra-
piers union, between 1900 and 1000
will be affected by the order. Presi-
dent Perham declares that by II
o'clock tomorrow 95 per cent of the

ficials maintain that they will be able
to fill the places of most of the men
and that they will suffer nothing more
than a temporary Inconvenience by the

DEcoYED BY A STRANGER.
Girl Mistreated by a Man Who Said
Her Father Was Injured.

Chester, Pa, July 2S.-An unidenti-
fed white man decoyed Miss Ellen a.
Jones, fifteen years old. to a lonely
spot on the outskirts of the city, where
the girl alleges she was mistreated.
Ellen's statement to her parents is
that she was approached by the we'll
dressed stranger as she was coming
out of a store downtown, and told
that her father had ben seriously in
jured in the suburbs by falling from
bicycle, and that he had directed him
to look for his daughter. Miss Jones
accompanied the man as she knew her
father frequently used a bicycle and
when they reached a point some dis
tance above Chester Park. she was
forced into the shrubbery and attacked.
The man is described as forty five
years of age, with ruddy cheeks. 4
small mustache and wearing a yacht
ing cap. The girls father, who is
employed in a banking house. is as
sisting the police to find the fellow and
threatens to shoot him on sight.
