IMPROVEMENT OF FORTS.

Extensive improvements in the
great gun and mortar batteries at
Forts Washington and Hunt, in Vir-
gipia, which guard the city's water ap-
proaches. are being made by the army
engineers.
All OF the changes have been car
ried out in comparative secrecy by
the War Department, consequently
the details of the work will not be
made public 1t is known, however,
that firing rate Of the great ten-inch
guns has been almost doubled by the
installing Of new hosting and hand
ling machinery in the magazines.
In addition to the work on the for
tifcations proper, attention is being
given to the land approaches and to
the general condition of the reserva-
ton on either side of the river.
Though the two forts are within
twelve miles Of the capital, they have
no direct communication with the
War Department in Washington. I'm
til two years ago the forts had COM
munication by telephone through q
worn out wire laid in the bottom Of
the river at the time OF the civil war.
This wire passed from all usefulness
shortly after the pseudo attack by ma.
tional guardsmen on the Capitol two
years ago.

JONES AGAIN S|LENCED.
Would-be Senator, it is Alleged,
Requested Money for His Own
Congressional District.

Not only vas w. A. Jones consulted
about the disbursement OF campaign
funds, OF which he says he was kept in
ignorance, but he made requests for
the specific amounts OF money he de-
sired to be spent in his own Congress
sional district for the furtherance Of his
own candidacy was the statement issued
Saturday in Richmond by Lieutenant
Governor ]. Taylor Ellyson, in reply to
the last response OF Mr.. Jones.
Mr.. Ellyson says that to substantiate
his assertions he has a memorandum
book, containing the names Of persons
in each county and the one city then
in the First Congressional District in
Mr.. Jones handwriting, to whom the
latter desired that money should be
sent, in reply to request from the
State chairman for such information.
This is regarded by Mr.. Ellyson as a
complete answer to the assertion of Mr..
Jones that he vas never consulted by
Mr.. Ellyson as to the disbursement Of
campaign funds, although member
ofIhe State executive committee.
Referring to the inquiry Of Mr.. Jones
as to who was meant by us" in the
letter OF J. s. Barbour Thompson to
General T. NJ. Logan, produced by Mr.
jones; and in which Mr.. Ellyson' $
name is mentioned as having been
friendly to somebody, the chairman
says he does not know to what Mr..
Thompson referred. He reitcrates his
former assertion that he Was never ask
ed to do anything during the campaign
referred TO nor during the succeeding
sessions OF the legislature, with regard
to any railroad legislation.
Should Mr.. Jones desire further in.
formation on this point, Mr.. Ellyson
suggests that he inquire of the person
from whom he obtained the Thompson
letters.

FINED FOR DIsoRDERLY CONDUCT

Some excitement was caused on
upper Duke street last Saturday night
by some trouble which took place be.
tween colored boy and a number Of
white boys. It is said that the colorcd
boy struck white boy, although what
caused him to do so is not known,
when dozen or more white youths
attempted to capture the assailant,
and being unable to do so, this threat
ened the boys mother and also pre-
tended they would burn her house.
Abort dozen young men we're arrest
ed and brought into the Police Court
this morning, when the colored woman
said she believed she recognized the
prisoners as the youths who had threat
eded her. The colored boy was not
present, nor had the complainant any
witnesses to corroborate her statement.
Officer Reed, however, identified five
OF the prisoners as parties he was COM
PEELED to drive away from an uptown
corner for disorderly conduct last Satur-
day night. They were fined S. each
and the others were dismissed. There
is much complaint from that section OF
the city Of young men who participate
in disorderly conduct. especially on
Saturday nights.

Officer Wilkinson this morning re-
ported sad case to Mayor Paff A
woman, suffering from incurable
pulmonary trouble, and entirely desti-

Of Jefferson street, between Columbus

such as to appeal to all. as she needs
immediate relief and attention. The

July 5th, 1911.

To the Publlc:- Owing to the large
number of worthless and apparently
ownerless dogs now running at large in
the streets OF the city, it is obvious that
measures drastic, though legal, must be
resorted to in order to rid the city Of
every unlicensed and ownerless dog, and
laws rigidly enforced, which for decades
have been ignored.
First, attention is called to the follow
ing extract from the City Laws, Chap
ter 25, Section 6, which provides that
at shall be the duty Of the Auditor to
procure and furnish annually to all per-
sons taking out license, rs herein pre-
scribed, 4 brass or other metal number
or medal having thereon some emblem
or device Of municipal authority, TO be
worn on collar on each dog SO licensed,
and said number so arrangedas to desig-
nate on the Auditors books the number
or names ofsuch persons procuring from
him such license"
Notice is hereby given to all concerned
or interested, that ten days from the
July 18th, 1911, all dogs found running
at large on the streets without collar,
and attached tag for the year 1911, will
be corralled and destroyed
Arrangements now being made will,
it is believed. be effective in largely
minimizing ifnot entirely abating, what
is considered by many both 4 menace
and 4 nuisance. Awagon TO collect the
stray dogs will be placed on the streets,
and the members of the Police Force
will be supposed to have knowledge OF
all unlicensed dogs upon the streets
they patrol. The theft of collar or 4
tag will constitute petit larceny, and the
possession Of tag other than by its
owner will be evidence Of the theft.

THE CHOLERA SCARE
IN THE UNITED STATES.
The Disease Causes Anxiety in New
York---Close Watch Kept on
Immigrants.

New York, July 17.-So serious is
the cholera situation at this port con-
sideFed that experts OF the public health
and marine hospital service at Wash
ington reached here today to aid in
keeping the plague under control.
There are fifteen cases in the detention
hospita! on Swinburne Island and there
have been two deaths within forty
eight hours. Half dozen others are
in a serious condition and may not
recover. Two more deaths were report
ed today.
The row between Health Officer Doty
and the persons who have alleged that
immigrants have been inhumanly
treated has reached climax and it is
asserted that tha efficiency of the local
quarantine station is seriously inter
ferre,l with. Charles n. Bulger, who
has been investigating the charges on
hetalf OF Gov. Dix is expected to recon-
mepd DR.. Doty's removal from office.
Doty insists that he is being prosecuted
by coterie of Tammany politicians
who want his iob-one OF the richest in
the state service-for tiger henchman.
He admits that as the result OF the
Bulger investigation discipline on the
station is not as good as formerly.
All OF the steerage passengers from
the steamer Moltke and Perugia are in
the observation wards at Hoffman
Island. The fifteen cases OF actual
cholera now on Swainburne Island all
came from the Moltkc. Both steamer
came from Italian po-ts and ii was
decided today that hereafter the de-
tention period for immigrants from
Italy shall be doubled.
The real danger comes from cholera
carriers, patients who retain the disease
in the intestinal tract and fail to de-
velop it within the ordin airy time limit.
The recent case at Auburn, n. Y, and
the case Of watchman Cushing, who
died Saturday, are declared by the
experts to have been of the character.
character.
Because OF this fact it has been de-
cided that even though detained pas
sengers appear normal, specimens
shall be taken from their intestinal
tracts and psychological examinations
made before they are finally dis
charged.
Vienna. July IL Alarmed by the
increase of cholera in Italy, the Aus
trian government today gave supple,
mentary quarantine instructions OF the
most rigorous character along the from
tier to prevent the epidemic from
spreading TO Austria or Hungary.
Naples via Paris, July I7.-With
coastwise trade greatly reduced and
hampered, and foreign shipping at
standstill as result OF the cholera and
the populace excited over the anti
cholera sanitary campaign, the author-
ties began preparing today to cope with
disorders.
Panicky in one respect and not fully
realizing the gravity Of the situation
in another, the public is not properly
cooperating with the situation.
Many persons protest against being
penned up" as the quarantine regula-
tions are termed, and meetings were
called today by labor organizations
with view of declaring q general
strike in the city.
The authorities are not disposed to
give out any information as to the
OF cases and deaths from
olera.
