PENSACOLA SITUATION.
Seven New Cases Reported From the
 Florida City.

Florida City.
 Pensacola, Fla, Sept. 24-(Special) The yellow fever report tonight shows seven new cases, making thirty under treatment, No patients were discharged today. Beginning tomor- row there will be renewed activity in the work of sanitation.
 Another half a dozen cases were made public this morning on the Board of Health bulletin board, and this is the third day that this number of cases have been reported officially The ex- ceedingly warm weather of Saturday is thought to have had something to do with this large number yesterday and the same number os looked for during the next few days. since there are number of suspicious cases under sur veillance and these will be passed upon in time.
 Dr. Porter. the State Health oficer, now signs all bulletins posted, which gives the announcements an air of au- thority This has not been the case in the past. The bulletins are made up after the reports from the city physicians are received and the inves- legations on the part of the assis- tants to the State Health officer are made up.
 whatever may be the result of the fever, whether 1t lasts from now until frost, there is a satisfaction gained that the town has received a lesson that will not be soon forgotten and that 1t will be observed in the future. Had not the funds of the State Board of Health have been available and the assistance from that body forthcoming. there would have been some serious propositions to face fin the fight with the fever As it Is, the city now gets of with an increased expense of less than $500 weekly, while the payroll of the State Board is more than $1 900 weekly, all of which would have been borne by the city had not the funds come from another source.
 In the new eases which have devel- oped in the past few days, 1t is shown that the fever has taken a hold in marshy section of the city, and practi- caily a new foci has been pronounced. There will have to be some energetic work on the part of the health off cIaIs to rid the fever of it's hold in that section. Cases are developing with alarming rapidity there, and fam lilies are being urged to take the ut most precautions to guard against the attacks of the mosquito. It is quite needless to say that this advice mas been generally observed.
 As an example as to the manner of the land in that section, it might be ahown that ditchinE has been going on

vate companies whenever he cares to

pairing for this work, that had suddenly
become so valuable to Colorado, and it
was universally conceded that he was
the man who must prepare the expert
work in the states case.
The agricultural college has $4,000
year from :he government for its ex-
perimental work. and it was the Gus
tom of the board of control to apply
$1,000 of this to Mr.. Carpenters salary
