Among the scientific men there Is little doubt that the archbishop fell victim to mos quito during a brief visit he paid to the old archbishopric on Chartres street or from an insect which found its way into his residence in Esplanade avenue. which Is not far from the territory within which there has been infection

ing restless under the severity of the quarantines which have proved of great inconveniences to them in cutting off their supplies. This Is regarded as encouraging In view of the modified views of Score tary Hunter of Mississippi with regard to quarantines. Dr. Hunter announces himself utterly opposed to shotgun quar- antines and throughout Mississippi a saner spirit is manifesting itself since the federal government has relieved the local authorities. It Is promised that quar- antine lines will be loosened if the sit- uation improves here. That is not actually expected in the next two or three days because now the utmost energy is being displayed in the effort to bring to light every possible case of fever but when Dr. White feels assured that he knows where every existing case Is located and where every case has been, some progress will be made.

 Among the cases in the last official report Is one within half square of Newspaper Row. It Is located in a Iodg- ing house in Commercial alley. This is the second case that has been reported from the same quarter.

INCREASE SHOWN
 IN DEATHS YESTERDAY.

Todays record of new cases was again large and there was an increase in the number of deaths. The new cases are swelling largely as the result of the vim and energy which federal control of the situation has inspired, and a gradual overcoming of the disinclination of some of the doctors to make known their cases The overwhelming preoonderance of cases continues below Canal street and the disease has nowhere got firm hold above.
 Surgeon White returned today from his visit to Slidell, and after taking up the threads of his work went down into the originally infected district to survey the conditions there. He also visited the emergency hospital. which was taken over today by the marine hospital forces. pr. White has practically completed his detailed plan of action, and with nearly all of his assistants on the ground ex- poets in a day or two to have each of the seventeen wards in the city under his finger Dr. White today engaged q large suite of offices in the Louisiana Ma tIonal Bank building. from which the campaign will be conducted.
