Pensacola, Fla, Sept. 21s--(Special) "A discouraging report of the yellow fever situation was made in a bulletin i from pr. Porter, the State Health Of- | ficer, this morning. This was the finding of. five new cases or cases or | fever which had been hidden from the officers and which were in an entirely new foci. In fact the cases discov- cred and which were about convales- | cent were those of man and his wife who had been sick for some time aware of the maiady they were suf-- fering from, but who persistently kept 1 it from the officers. This has not only created new -foci' put mas ssaa oUne 1h ,he | the fever to spread since there are numerous cases looked for from the new development.
 it was his intention to institute viz orous prosecution of those parties who had continued to keep the disease hid der, and that the law in all It's force | pr. Porter, in charge, of the entire | situation, took special precautions
 prosabfe tais nppsad to of sSe fe1er to lying districts and to the. many sum mer camps on the outskirts of the city. Hereafter no one will De per mftted to pass in or out of the city without having first obtained a new pass, and no pass will be issued here after except to the heads of families who have bona fide business in or out
 of the city No women or children and no servants at all will be permitted to have the privilege of coming into
 the city or going beyond the limits
 These instructions were issued this morning, and the sheriff was instruct
 ed to Inform the guards to take up
 anyone trying to leave or return. This | Is calculated to protect the country
 people and the campers on the out skirts.
 The new cases discovered are: J; A.

 until late last night that the, the doctHS5s tSs fever was that of the dread yellow pest.
 The cases of the other three patients
 had been concealed from the doctors,
 action will be taken in the future. In spite of the large number or
 cases reported today, which report is the fever will be stamped out early in
 the coming month, although the health
 men are at sea when the cases are
 persistently withheld from them. The | new foci discovered nave caused | feeling of discouragement.
 | The summary of the State Health Oficer this afternoon was: New cases,
 l. 5; total to date. 49; deaths none. to-
 tai to date, g: cases under treatment, | &; cases discharged. 32. i@.
 Five cases of fever and number of | suspicious cases of sickness Is the Board of Health report early tonight. There are no new developments in way | of pronounced cases of yellow fever. | but since the discovery of practically | new foci a little Encouragement Is felt.

MARKET FOR FUTURES
QUIET DAY ON THE NEW YORK
 EXCHANGE. < st A Sales for the Day Were Only about 2O0. GOO Bnlea-Cables Steady and Private
 Wires Showed Firm IR- terior Spots,

New York. Sept 21-The cotton market was quiet on the whole. sales for the day being estimated at only 100000 bales. but the. demand seemed to be little more gen eral during the. early session and prices were steadily held. most of the midday re- action being recovered at the close. when prices were net 4@7 points higher.
 The opening was steady at decline of one point on October and December. but generally unchanged to three points higher ID response to steady cables and @ number of private wires reporting firmer interior spot markets. There was some selling Q eeele-up, but the market gradually worked higher until around midday prices showed e net gain of 70S points
 This was followed by reaction In the sariy afternoon on reports that spot demand was less active at the advance. hut after selling off four or five points the market rallied during the late trading and closed steady on renewed covering.
 Southern spot markets were unchanged 10 1-lsc higher and reports of firm holders are accompanied by a feeling of fine re- eeipts compared with last season. which as supposed to reflect slow marketing Weather reports were favorable.
 Receipts at the ports today 3e.s52 bales, against s4.s54 last week and 4s.7os last year. For the week. estimated. 240,000 nnies. against 21s.4ss last week and 2ss.- 1As last year.

Andre,xs,s Defiance.

There was a fiutter of excitement this afternoon when opposition was made by J. N. Andrews, a prominent real estate man, to a fumigating gang entering his home and burning a dis infectant. Andrews claimed there was not any need of Immigration at his premises, since there was no sickness. Since a case of yellow fever had de- veloped the day before a few doors from Andrews's home, and 1t was the custom of the Board of Health to fumi- gate all houses within a radius of at feast 100 feet. the gang was ordered to enter Andrews's house. The gentle man stood on the porch, defying the men to enter. saying that he objected.
 The matter was reported to Dr.. Por- ter, State Health Of1cer, and the latter ordered Chief of Police Schad to make entrance for the fumigators. Schad, however, acting on the advice of City Attorney Jones, refused to arrest An drews unless a warrant was placed Tn his hands. This placed the matter in rather curious light, since the stat utes place sheriffs and police officers at the disposal of the state Health Of- deer at any place where fever Is pre- vailing. Chief Schad maintained that 1t was not his duty to make the ar rest. but says that if any residence Is forced 1t should be placed up to the Sheriff. At last report the mitigating gang was killing time and waiting for settlement of the controversy. .s

This seems to indicate that the banks are re- lteved from the necessity of calling loans In order to keep within the reserve limit It is assuned therefore. that the hardening tone of money must have to do with the disposition of the trust companies' funds rather than with those of the banks The retention of the Bank of England rate was a favorable factor in the days market. as 1t has been quite commonly expected that it would be advanced in order to shift New York demand for gold upon Paris. re- newed falf in foreign exchange resulted, but the decline was not sufficient to reach the point of profit for further engagement of gold for import.

Lecfnred CoIIectnra.

Recorder Laney put down the law straight this morning to a certain class of collectors in this town who are im- bued with the idea that because they have a bill against person, white or black, they can go through an open or unopened door and gain entrance to a house. whether the Inmates protest or not. Some of the collectors seem to think they can force their way into a home and forcibly take out furniture which Is under lease while not armed with writ properly issued.
 This came about in the case of a Soi- lector named Yother. who made hls way to the home of a woman and who was told to leave. Not doing SO, a hatchet was flung at him and struck him In the face. An officer was told Of the affair and when the bluecoat visited the scene the woman started to run. Without being asked, the col lector caught hold of her and was bit ten badly on the arm. The woman however, was discharged. 1t being held that he had overstepped the bounds and had made himself liable when he placed hands on the woman or when he had refused to leave the house when ordered.
 It Is said that houses have been broken open and the contents stripped during the absence of the occupants by persons who held accounts on furnit- ure purchased on the installment plan.
