CHOLERA IN CONSTANTlNOPLE.
Three Hundred Soldiers Said to by Dying
naily-Kurds Attack and Kill Soldiers
Fleeing from Dread Disease.

London, Nov. 19.-Unofiicial but
reliable dispatches received here today
from Constantinople declare that 800
soldiers are dying daily of the cholera
epidemic that is now devastating the
entire Turkish army.
So demoralized has the army become
as result Of the alarming spread Of
the disease that reinforcements recently
sent forward to strengthen the garrisons
on the Persian frontiers refused to stay
ut the posts. Instead they pushed on
across the Persian frontiers, and the
Kurds, ignorant OF the cause OF the adj
vance, attacked them. Fifty are already
declared to have been killed, while the
remainder arc being constantly harras-
sed by the Kurds.
st. Petersburg, Nov. $50 alarm
ing has become the spread OF the
cholera epidemic in Manchuria that
the government was today forced to
take official cogrizance of it.

EXANDRIA, VA.
A DISPUTE between white and colored

A DISPUTE between white and colored
sailors OF the United States squadron,
under Rear Admiral Vreelahd, in Cher
bourg, France, last night, developed in
to a fight, in which revolvers and
knives were used. The gendarmes ar
rested sailor from the Kansas, who IS
charged with having stabbed man
from the Louisiana in the abdomen,
the sailor dying later in hospital from
the wound. One negro was also sent TO
a hospital in serious condition from
several stab wounds 10 the back, while
another colored man was wounded on
the head. Two hundred dlsorderiy
sailors from the visiting American feet
were expelled from cafe at Cher
bourg, yesterday. They stoned the
building and the gendarmes who ln'cr-
ferred. A group of sailors from the
American fleet lighted wood tire on
the water front Of Brest, France, yes
tsrlay. The flames spread until they
threatened to communicate with near
by barrels Of nitrate and alcohol. Ihc
police saw the danger and cxtingu'sheu
the fire. Judging from the above the
United States had better order the heet
to weigh anchor and return to this
country as soon as possible. 1t IS I'M
fortunate that United States sailors get
in trouble SO often when they go away
from home. This is tho third time in
recent years that clashes have taken
place between America sailors ana
people in foreign cities they have
visited. 1t is especially TO be regretted
that France should be the theatre OF
such uuseemingIy conduct--a country
which aided in securing the indepen-
dence of the United States from Great
Britain. France and the United States
have for over 100 years manifested
the best of feeling toward each other.
Visitors from the United States to Paris
see American capes, the Stars and
Stripes and one of the handsome boule-
wards OF the city named after their
nation.
