P1TTsBURG TYPHOID SPREADS.
500 New Cases in June-Foreieners
an Easy Mark.

P1TTSBURG. Pa, July 3.-The epidemic
of typhoid fever in this city, which was
not expected to increase to any alarming
extent until late this month. is gradually
assuming serious proportions; and the
health authorities are puzzled at the many
cases recorded during June. In that period
there were 49S new cases.
DR.. James F. Edwards, superintendent
OF the bureau Of health, said today that
on account OF the cases being scattered
throughout the city he believed the in
crease to be due to the poor water sup
ply. Supt. Edwards says that many Of the
foreigners who have contracted the dis
ease here within the last few weeks were
discovered to be recent arrivals and were
ready victims to the germ.
DR.. Edwards declared that the presence
of SO many foreigners in this city is one
cause for many cases developing, as
there are new families arriving every day
who are ignorant of the danger that lies
in drinking raw river water.

ALASKAN FORCES ARM
RIVAL RAILROADS PREPARE FOR
DEADLY CONFLICT.

SEATTLE, Wash, July ga special to
the Post Intelligencer from Valdez Alaska,
tells of the preparations for armed conflict
between the Copper River Northern rail-
way forces and the Alaska-Pacific railway
men at Katalla. The Copper River rail-
| road, which Is known throughout Alaska
as the Guggenheim proposition. aiming to
tap the Copper river district, Is attempting
: to cross the right Of way Of the Alaska
Pacific company. known as the Bruner
Line. which also aims for the Copper river
district by way of Lake Charlotte.
The Bruner people have applied to Gov.
Hoggatt Of Alaska for the protection OF
United States troops. alleging that the
Guggenheim forces contemplate an armed
attack upon them. Authorities at Valdez
admit that the situation is serious
The launch Pioneer. which arrived at
Valdez yesterday from Katalla, brings word
that the Bruner road has erected Co
Devil at the crossing which the Guggen-
helms are trying to take. The machine. by
means of a donkey engine. swings continu-
ally across the tracks. making it impossible
for men to come within q radius of fifty
feet Of the -Bruner line
The same launch brings the report that
blOCkhouSeS of thick timberS have been
erected along the right of way by the
Bruner people. and that the Guggenheims
are paying 81 an nour to fighting men. with
bonus of 800 to the first man who crosses
the Bruner right Of way. The Copper
River road is now built about thirty miles
from Katalla The Bruner road. so far. has
done nothing but terminal work at Katalla.
Since its start few months ago there has
been constant trouble between the Bruner
road and the Guggenheim people.
Several times the right of way of the
Guggenhein road has been dynamited when
the Bruner engineers claimed the Copper
River road has crossed their territory. An
injunction asked recently by the Alaska
Pacific Railway and Terminal Company
against the Guggenheim road was denied.

IN CENTRAL AMERICA
SCHEMES FOR CONSOLIDATION
THAT HAVE FAILED.

PUERTO CORTEZ. Honduras. June q,
via New Orleans July 3.-Within the last
few days a new combination has appeared
on the Central American checker board
whereon President Zelaya has been ma
neuvering for several months by means or
revolutionary plots to consolidate the five
republics under one government The new
combination Is reported to be Honduras.
Guatemala and Salvador. Their under
standing was reached at Tegucigaipa, Hon.
duras capital Its aim is the defeat of the
consolidation.
Special ministers from Guatemala and
Salvador recognized Provisional President
Davila as president of Honduras and he
agreed. as reported in Washington dis
patches. TO act Independently of the control
of Nicaragua. Zelaya's candidate for the
Ionduran presidency was Terencio Sierra,
and In recognizing Davila the Guatemalan
and Salvadorian diplomats strengthened
the hold OF a president hostile to Zelaya and
thereby robbed the latter of the fruits OF
his successful Honduran war. namely, the
opportunity 10 name president who would
obey him.
Diaz and Zelaya.
The first move of the combination to
force the evacuation of Honduras by Mica
raguan troops. Thereby Puerto Barrios, Qua
tcmala. has within the last week been re-
Hcved Of the menace OF the Nicaraguan
general Estradas' army, which for many
weeks campej in Honduras within few
hours Of striking distance from Guatemala.
Since the evacuation the defeated generals
OF former President Manuel Bonilla have
been returning to their country and some
of them have been invited on missions to
TeguCigalpa, which is considered significant.
lt.is reported that Zelaya did not yield to
the demand for evacuation until his envoy,
Gomez, who recently conferred with Presi-
dent Diaz of Mexico, received the refusal of
DiaZ tu act with Nicaragua in attack
upon Guatemala 1t is reported also that
Nicaragua has already spent between
81 o@.UD and $3.ooOO10 in the attempts to
place men of Zelaya's choice in the presi-
dental chairs of other republics. Nicaragua
sSued about S2,OO.OO0 in treasury notes. a
percentage of which were to be redeemed in
customs duties.
Blame for the failure of the recent revo-
htion in Salvador. in which Nicaraguans
participated. is attributed partly to the
choice of DIR. Alfaro as leader. 1t is said
that many Silvadoreans were ready for
revolution. but that they would not follow
Afaro, preferr!ng Gen. Barahona. who,
however, was not pleasing to President Ze-
laya.
