 FOUND ON SHIP AT NEW YORK

 This case shows all the features of the Germania oase, said pr. Doty tonight, and Is undoubtedly of the kind known as cholera carrier.' The Moltke left Naples on September 21. and 1t was about II days later that this man became i'll. I shall remove to Hoffman island all of the steerage and probably a part of the crew.
 The Moltke arrived here with 319 cabin passengers in addition to nearly 1000 In the steerage. The former were released after careful inspection and delay for two days. Tonight the Fabre liner, Sant Anna, came up to her pier, having been held at quarantine since Monday.

A moment later car drove past In which were two bodies A crowd formed at the scene of the shooting. but there was no suspicion of a riot. Among the thousands of people I did not see a single case of drunkenness. There were no outrages and no footing.
 '.The most impressive object lesson is the self-control which the Latin people are able to maintain when imbued with serious purpose. I was told that the dead numbered 5000, but I am convinced this Is an exaggeration. Estimates of 500 and 700 are based on information ob tained from the Red Cross"

 'It would certainly be advantageous
 to have the detailed statistics for Iarg cities and for states presented in both forms. This duplication would enable the citizen of any given state or city
 to readily find in one place all the available facts with regard to his state or city; while. on the other hand. the person who was interested in some particular subject, such as ilIiteracy or the country of birth of the foreign born, and who was not interested for the time being in any other subject, would, in the second set of tables, find the figures for all the large cities or subject presented side by side The additional expense of duplicating the figures is the only thing that stands in the way of doing so.
 DUPLICATION TO BE AVOIDED.
 ttIt is not the intention to duplicate the figures for counties and for the smaller cities by presenting them first in the state bulletins. above described, and later in subject tables where the figures on any given subject for all the counties for all the small cities throughout the country would appear side by side. The idea Is that the gen. eral of any given subject does not. in most cases have any desire to compare the statistics of Individual counties throughout a given state or through out the country, or to compare the another.
 t'It is believed that the chief interest in the statistics of the counties and small cities is the local interest of the people of those counties and cities On the other hand, in the statistics of the states and large cities there is not people living in a given state or city, but a general interest, nationwide in character. Persons who have this gen. eral interest in the statistics desire he states and large cities as elements or sections of the nation, rather than as units standing by themselves, and to have them in form convenient for conn pari- son 'S

VAUDEVILLE OPENING
 AT POLrS THEATRE

Large audiences witnessed the open ing of the vaudeville season at Poli's, yesterday afternoon and evening. The theatre was reasonably cool, although the weather outside was about the most oppressive of the year. Easily the most attractive thing on the pro gram to the greater portion Of the l audience was the five aArmanis. who offered musical piece entitled "A Might in Naples.'' The singing of the troupe was high class and the efforts of the singers were greeted with storms of applause.
 Madden & Fitzpatrick offered a little slxit, by the latter, which was appreci- Richard Crawford. Mozart NIi1ligan and Patrolrnan O'Brien, played by J. w. Fitzpatrick, l.. B. Madden and J. F. Honan. The setting was good and the work of the players better.
 And old favorite was H. T. Mac Connen. as president of the 13 club. The act contained some surprises which seemed to catch on with the audience. The act was also funny.
 The four Readings did some hand to hand acrobatic stunts, including certain flying leaps, that rank them as talented in their line.
 Other acts were the Arnaud Bros, John and Renie, in musical acrobadc stunt, Cross and Josephine in a comedy sketch entitled. Dying to Act Tro- vollo, in a ventriIoQuil novelty and, of course, the pictures.
 The show will be seen two perfor- mances daily for the rest of the week, closing Saturday night.
 ''The Turn of the Tide is sure to attract many vaudeville patrons who recall the excellent playet when it was presented here three years ago. Like good wine it improves with age MT. Fitzpatrick and Madden enjoy large personal followings in this city. MT. Fitzpatrick was formerly engaged in Newspaper work in Waterbury and MT. Madden has been the director of a number of musical shows "The Turn of the Tide is a clever1y con structed pIayet of well sustained heart interest, bright with hunor, with just g. touch of pathos here and there. Standing out prominently are MT. Madden's piano selections and MT. vocal solos and his his trionie ability.
