FIGHTING YELLOW FEVER.
Ecuador and Panama sign Convention
Cuban Quarantine Partially Raised.

WASHINGTON, Sept 3o.-United States
Minister Fox, writing from his post
at Quito, Ecuador, informs the State
Department to-day that a sanitary con-
yention between Ecuador and Panama
had been signed. The United States
Government has been much concerned
about the agreements between Panama
and her neighbors on questions of sani-
Ia ton, and IL is felt that treaty with
Ecuador. which has been encouraged
In every proper way by officials In the
Canal Hone, will greatly aid the health
authorities In keeping yellow fever out
Of the lsthmus.
American methods have stamped out
fever and fever conditions In Panama
and when reg Ilations can be enforced
by Panama against surrounding coun-
tries II Is not expected that there will
he any return of Il.
The quarantine against Cuba which
has been in effect in all ports OF the United
States from Norfolk south to the Gulf
since last April has been removed in
respect to all ports OF Cuba except those
in tho Province OF Oriente, where San
lingo Is situated.
Surgeon C General Wyman Of the marine
hospital service issued the order reliev-
ing the ouaran tine. 1t is expected that
he will take restrictions of Santiago
in a few days. Most Of the tratho from
that port Is for Northern ports of the
United States, and the North has had
no fears at any time.
Yellow fever in the island is consid-
ered eradicated, the last case being eigh-
teen days ago in Havana. Much COM
plant has been made from Cuba Of the
continuance of the quarantine. The latest
and POSSIBLY the most eheotual was from
Gen, Thomas n. Barry, In command of
the Army Of Pacincation, In his annual
report lust published he spoke of the
annoying and vexatious features Of 1t

Suspended Chief Unable to Give Tx
amIners Much Information.

aminers Much Information.
The Commissioners Of Accounts began
yesterday the investigation Of the Mayors
Bureau Of Licenses. The suspended chief
of the bureau. John P. Corrigan, was
the only witness Of the day.
Mr.. Mitchell learned from him that
Sigmund Schwartz. president Of the Push
cart Pedlers Association. who has been
accused of trafficking in licenses. had
called and introduced himself. Corri-
gan said that he had not seen Schwartz
often since he had once put him out Of
the bureau. Schwartz had asked him
to make an appointment with him to meet
him and walk around town with him
so that he could be seen with the chief
Of the Bureau of Licenses. That was
the reason he put Schwartz out. he did
not want to be used
When Mr.. Mitchell asked if Schwartz
had ever made any other propositions
to him Corrigan said no, not in connec-
ton with his office. and none at all which
IL was not proper to entertain.
Mr.. Corrigan told Mr.. Mitchell that
althou gh the issue of licenses for push
carts and for street stands had been
stopped Dy inc Mayors OTueT several
years ago some licenses of this sort had
been issued latterly by special orders,
Tho Commissioner wanted to know from
whom such orders came and Corrigan
said from the Mayors former secretary :.
John H. OBrien and from his present
secretary and executive secretary, Frank
NJ. O'Brien and William A. Willis Oc-
casionally orders had come from the
Mayor himself. Generally all these orders
were oral. The Mayor Is Mr.. Corrigan' s
immediate superior.
Mr.. Corrigan had never heard that
licenses had been renewed to men not
the original holders. that numbers Of
pedlers were operating under licenses
not in their own names or that licenses
had been trafficked in,
Mr.. Mitchell told Mr.. Corrigan that
after the examination of other witnesses
he should have further questions to put
to him.
