Work IL Of strenuous Nature.

Outside the sessions everyone in
connection with the work has contin-
nous and taxing occupation, with but
a few hours for rest and practically
none for recreation. The envoys have
breakfast before 9 o'clock: they are in
the navy yard before TO- and. with the
exception of brief space for luncheon
served in the conference building, they
stay in session until evening. After
this hurried dinner is served at the
hotel. and the work of the evening and
night begins. Last night. for Mr..
Wtte and Baron Rosen, there was an
outside duty and one of almost as much
importance as the peace between Rus
sia and Japan. namely, the considera-
tion of the question of the amelioration
of the condition of the Jews in Russia
with a delegatian of eminent American
Hebrews During this time the Japan
eSe emissaries were busily engaged in
their quarters in bringing their records

ment that Sunday one cable company
handled $4,000 worth OF business.
Both sides are very keen in the matter
of their facilities for communication.
The heavy tax on the local telephone
wires made il impossible for them TO
get quick service between the hotel
and their conference rooms in the navy
yard. and complaint was made, with
the result that Secretary Pierce had
two direct telephone systems installed
between these points, one for the Rus
SLAMS and one for the Japanese. Ex-
elusive use of the navy yard. so far as
civilians are concerned, is still possess
ed absolutely by the members of the
peace commission. Yesterday. in addi-
tion To the regular guard Of marines. a
detail of secret service men was added.
These surrounded the building and
kept constant watch throughout the
session.
There is a great advantage of bring.

.SHRINKAGE OF CASES
Foreigners Exceed in Mortal
ity LIst---Precau-
tiOns.

New Orleans. Aug. 15.-Hopefulness
among the general public was manifest
ed today over the yellow fever situa-
ton from the shrinkage of cases dur
ing the preceding "a hours and the be
lief is gaining ground that the lO5
cases reported from Saturday will
prove to be the top figures Of the pres
ent visitation of the fever.
AS already pointed out in the AsSo-
ciated Press dispatches. all cases OF
fever which bore the resemblance TO
yellow fever were included in last
weeks daily lists with the result that
many yellow fever cases were subse-
quently diagnosed as malaria.
More Care Hereafter.
Hereafter more care is to be taken
in investigating reports of sickness.
and. with the doctors cooperating. it is
expected that all yellow fever cases
found will be promptly turned up with
out the necessity of including in the re-
ports fevers of other kinds.
The weather was a triie cooler to-
day, but there is no indication of a de-
cided fall in temperature Sudden
changes in temperature are injurious
to yellow fever patients. alterations
from high TO low temperatures gener-
all having a marked effect on the death
rate. With the considerable number
of cases now under treatment more
deaths than have been occurring will
not be surprising. but in the meantime
the situation will continue to be favor
able as long as the deaths are confined
to one section Of the city. and principal
ly to the foreigners. who have taken
none of the ordinary sanitary and by
gienic precautions.
Patient I'm Screened BOnt.
At Lafourth crossing. four miles
from Thibodaux. a patient is reported,
who, with his nurse and family. and all
who visited him during his illness. have
been placed on screened and disin-
fected boat which has been anchored
in the bayou.
Some country parishes which have
been put on tight guarantees are now
struggling against the heavy expense
involved. In Lafayette a special tax
Of 21A mills has been levied to meet
the expense. Ouchita shotgun Quaran-
tine has been abandoned. In Iberville
parish the health authorities will try
the experiment OF the open door. but a.
the people from Bayou. Goul. and IN
fected points have been invading non
infected localities the citizens demand
ed more rigorous guarantees and the
health board has resigned.
Deaths Mostly Among Foreigners.
OF u deaths in the preceding ~
hours. seven were Italian, two German.
two English and one French. All were
