EFFORT TO PREVENT TRANsFER

In an effort to prevent the transfer
on Saturday of the District Of Column
bia Jail from federal to District control,
it vas authoritatiyely declared yester-
day that tho Supreme Court of the Dis
trict of Columbia would be petilioned
on Friday to issue an injunction re-
strainiug the present warden, Captain
Thomas II. Mckee, from turning over
the building. prisoners, and official doc
uments now under his control to Louis
F. Zinkham, who has been appointed
by the commissioners as supcrintend-
ent Of the combined Washington jail
aud asylum. TIE petition will charge
improper congressional procedure in
authorizing this change in an appro-
priation bill through the House appro-
priations committee, Instead ofthrough
the committee on the judiciary. A
question Of the constitutionalitY Of the
transfer OF power contained in the pro-
visions for appropriations for the work
house in the current appropriations act
for the District Of Columbia also will be
raised.
Because Of a paragraph that pro-
vides for the turning over Of District
prisoners 10 the workhouse at Deco
guam, it is predicted that the attorney
general may be compelled to take charge
OF the nccoquan jail to prevent the
wholesale liberation Of prisoners sent
there from Washington on the plea OF
lack Of District jurisdiction in Virginia,

THE CHOLERA MENACE.

According to dispatches from Lon
don, .Asiatic cholera is prevailing in
certain parts of Italy, and there is
naturally not only apprehension IN
that country, but throughout all
Europe. The scourge is said to be
raging in Naples and Palermo, and
there is reason to fear that ships trad
ing to and from those ports will carry
the dread disease to other countries.
Several immigrants suffering from
cholera have arrived at New York
recently. Over seventy years ago this
scourge ragged in seaport cities OF the
United States, during which time it
visited Alexandria and number OF
our people died. 1t was brought here
in vessels from Norfolk. Cholera is
raging in some portion Of the globe
all the time. It is, however, generally
contracted to oriental countries, and
moro civilized nations by proper pre-
caution, manage to confine the dis
ease to the places in which it origi-
mates. There are, however, times
when it breaks its bounds and starts
on q worldwide march. The author
of the Wandering Jew (who was a
physician) tells us cholera travels
about as fast az man can walk. 1t
is generally represented in prints as
a skeleton attired in cloak with a
scythe in its hand. Some OF the most
terrible scenes ever described have
been in connection with the march of
cholera. Shortly after the close
OF the civil war in this coun-
try the disease appeared in Alexandria.
Egypt, and people died so fast that
the grave diggers were soon overtaxed
and the victims were buried in trenches.
Dead carts passed through the streets
of the Egyptian city, those having
them in charge gathering corpses from
the cutters and sidewalks with as much
unconcera as though they were re-
moving pyramids OF rubbish after the
street had been swept. Thousands
were attacked by the disease while
proceeding along on the sidewalks.
They would fall aud die in terrible
agony within few hours, and when
picked up and placed in the dead cart
the countenances would be distorted and
their bodies twisted N all sorts OF
shapes,

lasts AT HAMPTON ROADS.

For the first time in history, eShaus-
tive tests as to the efficacy and adapla-
biIty of .irigibles and aeroplanes IN
war will be held at Hampton Roacs
about the first OF August in conjunction
with The naval maneuvcrs which Will
take place then.
Not satisfied with the usual methoc

authorities will have some method OF
Judging as to the accuracy with which
the guns now in use in the navy can
be relied upon to annihilate an enemy
approaching in airships. For this pur
pose immense kites, made IN shapes
similar to aeroplanes will be used.
The dirigibles will be manned by
dummies, representing the crew. The

England, Germany and France have
made number Of experiments regard
ing the efficacy of the smaller guns 10
repelling attacks on an air enemy, but
this will be the first time in the worlds
history that the three and six-ncb
artillery has been utilized fol this pur-
pose. Another unique feature OF the
ests will be the fact that each vessel

intention of keeping its hands Off dur

manner, large amount OF material
and new methods will be discovered
which would otherwise remain IN
known. The ship which makes the
best record during the tests will be
presented with a suitable trophy.
