erally infected. though there are some areas of it which have thus far en- tirely escaped. Slow progress is being made by the disease in what is known as the American portion of the city and with a few exceptions. the cases there are isolated.
 Some infection has existed in scat tered quarters where the local doctors have resented the activity of inspec- tors in cases which they have them selves reported. but Dr. White is dis playing great tact in handling the sit uation; he is constantly smoothing out the wrinkles and hopes within a few days to have so perfect q work ing system that the cause will no longer exist for dissatisfaction.
 Concerning tine statement that the druggists have been prescribing for patients in order that their families might avoid reporting sickness to the authorities, pr. White today said that he would act toward them as he would toward physicians if he learned that they were purposely conCealing cases. The doctors themselves, however, have indicated that they will heartily support any action designed to pro hibit the practice among the druggists of treating yellow fever cases. The

 The twelve cases of yellow fever re ported near POinte Alahache today in Plaquemine parish, are understood to be Italians. who left New Orleans iu the middle of the excitement follow ing the discovery of a nest of cases in the old French market quarter. Several hundred Italians at that time sought refuge in Plaquemine. Dr. Shayote. health officer Of Plaquemine. has isolated the patients. The marine hospital service, it is announced today, will take general charge Of the worl, of removing filth and trash from the streets and houses, the intention be- ing to put the city in good sanitary condition.
 The campaign of the prosecution ot those who have not paid obedience to the anti-mOsouito ordinance Is to De participated in by the federal author ities, the city board of health, the po- lice and various ward committees Sweeping orders have been issued to the police to prosecute all landlords and agents who fail to screen their Cisterns.
 The relief work of the Italian soci- cities is now in full swing. Interesting scenes are daily witnessed in the char ity restaurant which the societies have opened in the heart of the old French quarter and the restaurant is thrOng- ed at meal times with a motley crowd of men. women and children. The meals are served reguarly but ar engagements are made to feed any who come, no matter whether it is at d regular meal hour or not. It is esti- mated that the restaurant is now feeding a thousand persons day. A relief committee is also looking after the poverty stricken Italians in the matter of clothing, rent and other nec- essaries.

may be minor skirmishing and Outpost arguments while the troops are get ting in position, but it is admitted on each side that if either 'OYama CT Linevitch should deliberately Lring on a general engagement which might cost 5O,0OO or 100000 lies, his country would be accused of pad faith in the negotiations here ana would Inevitably lose prestige in the eyes of the world.
 In the larger sense, therefore, it can be said that an armistice already ex- ists in Manchuria. Should negotia- tions be vainIy prolonged and it should become evident that they were to be fruitless the advance of Oyama or Linevitch might be the signal for the final rupture. The unexpected attack on Port Arthur might be repeated be- low Harbin.

A WASHINGTON SC0URGE
The Worst Epidemic of Typhoid in
 Years.

Washington, Aug. 14.-Twenty-nine new cases of typhoid fever and two deaths of the disease were reported to the health officers today. The out break has surpassed in severity that of 1893, when the greatest number of persons under treatment for the dis ease at any time was 224, and has spread rapidly.
 The health officials are bending ev- cry effort to fight the disease, includ- ing a hOuse-to-hOuse inspection of backyards and cellars, with view to remedying unsanitary conditions.
