Not Yellow Fever.

The autopsy on the body Of Eb.

last Sunday morning by DR.. o. l..

Hospital, assisted by DR.. Couret,
in the presence Of about fifty ply.
s'cians, including, in addition to
the visiting health officers of other
States,. . number of the leading
practitioners of New Orleans. Ex.
animation removed all susplclon
that the patient had been suffering
from yellow fever, and absolutely
established the fact that his illness
and death we're due to cirrhosis of
the liver, accompanied by jaund,ce
and accnte nephrltis. There was not
. dissenting opinion, and the pro.
nounciamento Of the visiting health
officers sets the matter finally and
forever, ut rest
Big In the oficial report it Is shown
that Ebrenz died from clrrhosls of
the liver, accompanied by jaundice
and accnte nephrltis. The autopsy
developed also that that there was
4 tuberculosis hole in ore Of his
ylungs, and that his stomach was in
On extremely bad condition, due to
alcoholism. HIS general condition
Was 90 unusual, it was announced,
% to mislead many leading physi
c,ans in Z diagnosis of the case.
Ebrenz died At the Charity hos
pital at s o'clock Saturday night.
He was taken to that institution
some time ago from 3 lodging
house on st. Charles street, between
Poydras and Perdido streets. He
had been . heavy drinker. Ehrenz
was an oyster opener.
The action Of DR.. lrion in invit'
ing the representatives Of the neigh
boring States to come and conduct
their own investigation has me,
with very general approval. and
the policy of publicity adopted hal
gone far to remove any lingering
snspicion in the minds of cltizenl
Of surrounding States as TO The hon
esty of intention Of Louisiana anG

THE GOVERNORSHIP.

MANY issues important to the peo

any man can get the vote OF the
people in the bills he must declare

Total ..,...... s.ss,s
Estimated that the town would pay
Ss, 900, 39, 600 would have TO be raised
from private revenues.
Before the company should spend any
money it should nsve enough consnm-
ers to pay expenses. This will be IN
expensive town to supply. because the
lots are SO large.
The present company should be Of
fered the franchise, so that it might re-
alize as much Of its property as possi-
BILE.
II the town prefers to construct the
works, it should ply the present COM
pany . reasonable sum for that part Of

would have, II it contracted with the
private water company: that ts, the
tsx payers would know just what they
were liable for. aud there would be no

Besides, the town would have greater
ability to issue bonds 70: q sewer sys-
tenn, which is greatly needed, and In
fact which 1t must have II the town is
to be inviting and healthfnl. Property
holders objecting to the issuing of
bonds to build water works and sewers
are nearsighted. These improvements
will add 80 per cent to the value Of
property and leo per cent 20 the busi-
ness Of the town, and be OF inestimable
value tv the health and lives OF the
citizens. The reduction Of insurance
rates after the works are established
win be not less than 25 per cent Of the
premiums paid.
There will be some additional ex-
penses to the town for hose-cart, horses

ture Of the town is 90 promising that

works shall be constructed and lmme-
diate steps be taken to commence =

The amount required for sewers

Ration Rouge, Hammond
and Eastern Railroad.

Arrangements are nearly COM
pleted. for beginning work on the
new line of railroad, to be named
the Baton Rouge, Hammond and
Eastern Railroad, which is to run
due east and west from Baton
Rouge TO Merrill, Miss, . distance
of l46 miles. The road will cross
and connect with every railroad
running or projected into New Or
leans or Mobile, thus saving an
enormous amount of mllage or
time, both of which mean money
IN the operation of running rail.
road.
The road will commence at the
city of Baton Rouge. the capitol
of the State of Louisiana. at which
point it will touch the Texas and
Pacific Railroad and the Southern
Pacific Railroad, now under con-
structlon from Lafayette, La; the
Colorado Southern Railroad, now
under construction from Houston,
Tex; the Mississippi River. the
Yazoo and Mississlsssp, Valley
Railroad, and the Louisiana Rail
way and Navigation Company;
thence east to Hammond, La, in.
tersecting there the Illinois Cen.
trail Railroad; thence to Covlngton,
La, there connecting with the New
Orleans Great Northern Railroad,
and lutersecting the new north and
south line of the same road at .
point east of Covington; thence
to Nicholson, MISS, its proposed
present terminal, there connecting
with the New Orleans and North
eastern Railroad, total distance
of ninety-three miles. Upon com
plction of the line to this point It
is proposed to extend same east,
crossing the Gulf and Ship leland
Railroad at a point near Perkin-,
son, Mlss.. and terminating at
Merrill, Miss. where 1t will con
meet with the Mobile, Jackson and
Kansas City Railroad, thus giving
it facilities for entering the city
of Mobile on q mileage practically
as short as the present shortest
line from New Orleans to Mobile.
The road will be constructed
standard as to weight OF rails,
gauge, ballast, grades, size OF fills
and cuts, depots and motive power
as we'll as having the most up-to-
date rolling stock that can be OBJ
