The Louisiana State Hoard of Health kept faith \ytth Its sister boJIfs of the south and the rest of the country this afternoon when It made ofllcial announcement as the result of a caic- ftil autopsy that Raoul Gclpl , 13 years of age , had died of yellow fever , Gelpl was horn of prominent people hero ntnl had been spending oomu time at Ocean Springs , where he was taken down with fever and brought homo here. Soon after arriving , de- ppltc thu best medical intention , he died. 7)r. Thuanl , the physician In charge , Imme diately reported to the Hoard of Health and cxpreosi'd the opinion that death nan due to yellow fever ( This afternoon an autopsy proved that Dr. Theard's idea of yellow fever as correct. Steps were promptly taken to pi event a possible spread of the disease As the case \ ss ono of Importa tion , the doctors expressed confidence that they would be able to check the spread of ) the diMMKC. The death of young Gelpl naturally caused no little excitement In the city among the lay public. Physicians , however , expressed no apprehension and stated their belief that It was quite possible to arrest a spread of the fever. The hoard during the day had ordered a rigid quarantine against all points on the gulf coast and had taken every pre caution to guard against the entry Into the city of any persons from Ocean Springs. lllloxl or other po'ots on the sound which It was thought the fever might reach. During the day the bulletin fooards had been thiongcd about , the Board of .Health . ofllcers besieged and the Western Union wires freighted with messages to and from the various coast resorts. In the meantime , however , reassuring telegrams arrived from Ocean Springs that the Mississippi .Board . of Health had taken and would take every precaution possible to circumscribe the lim its of the epidemic and prevent Its com munication to the outside world. NO CAUSE FOR ALARM.

" OCEAN SPRINGS CASES. During the week ending August 21 reportc reached President Ollphant of the Board of Health of the prevalence of sickness at Ocean Springs , the jiaturo of which was In doubt. Dr. Ollphant , with a member of the 'Board ' of Health , went there and learned that there had been up to that time sonic 400 cases. Of thobo there had been only one or two deaths , but In two cases the symp toms were so serious as to give rise to the belief that the fever was of a violent type. Dr. Ollphant then brought on Doctors Pzarnowskl and Solomon of the Board of Kxperts , and Dr. Pat ton secretary of thu Board of Health , all experienced In the treatment of yellow fnvcr. They visited eomo eleven patlunts and after a careful and thorough examination and Investigation unanimously reached the conclusion that tint favor was dengue. The physicians agreed that none ot the caeca up to then showed any symptoms that would lead oven to a Husplclon of more serious disease. All them physicians have had experience In yellow fever epidemics and are eminent In their profession and their unanimous con clusion seems to leave no doubt that ut Iho period spoken of the fever Was of a mild typo , During last week , however , yellow fever In virulent form appeared at Oceao Springs. The quick death of Dr. llemlB aroused simpleton and by Saturday the linoivlo nf linnltlt nf MnhllH flnd'iuv Orln.aiiM wore In possession of Snforuui Ion tlmt Justi fied the fear that yellow fever bad slipped Into Ocean Springs. Official representatives of tin ) boards of health of Mississippi , Louis iana and Alabama and the representatives of the marine hospital service went at once on Saturday to Ocean Springs. They were at euro convinced that their gloomy apprchcti tilons were not unfounded , Careful autopsies were mad. ! , but asldu from Dr. Saunders of Mobile the experts were disposed to await a further and complete autopsy to remove all doubt before making olllclal announce ment to thp world of thii appearance of thu scourge. Last night another patient , a. woman , died , and this morning an autopsy was held , Its result was to dlspul all pro- vlous doubt , Acting Picsidont Walmsley of the Louisi ana board said this evening : "There was never a doubt about the first diagnosis. At that tlmo beyond question dengue fever only prevailed. Out of COO cases the death rate was only one-half of 1 per cent. In cpl- dcmtea r t yellow fever thu death rate Is Infill lely heavier , In the pint few duys , however , yellow fever has gotten Into Ocean Springs. That Is proven both by the rapid death rate and by the thorough dUKnonot which have been made by the phyMcl.ins. No earlier announcement could bo made for the reason that prior to the last few dajn t'lero was no yellow fever existent In Ocean Springs. " PLACING RESPONSIBILITY. Dr , Walmsley was disposed to hold iho representative ! ) of the Marine hoipltul serv ice and thn Mississippi Board of Health to /onio responsibility for the livnslan. Ho vald that the fever had unquestionably hern communicated by the constant Intercourse. of Ocean Springs wl'H Ship Island , where there Is u United States ijov-'ramont cjuur- antlno station , Ships from all portions ot the world touch there. A largo number from tropical couutrlci whore yellow fryer 9 Indigenous to the soil report there weekly , [ "hero has been steady and uninterrupted communication between the Island and these coast towns , and Dr. Walmsley has little or no doubt that this has been the means of bringing Into Ocean Springs the deadly lenns of yellow fever. If a rigid quarantine lad been maintained between the Island and shore he believes that Ocean Springs would now hnvo little else to contend with than leiiguo fever. Immunity from epidemic , However , has had a tendency to brcc.l care- iessti'ss and the result Is to bo found In the calamity that tins befallen the popular sound resort. I.OATII TO ACCKI'T TIIMVOUST. . C < > \ eminent Ollleluls Doii < Mice tn llelleve It In Ypllmv Kevcr. WASHINGTON , Sept. ( ! . The latest In formation received by Dr. Ballb.ichc , acting surgeon general ot the marine hospital serv ice. I * to the effect that the disease reported nt Ocean Springs , Miss. , Is yellow fevvcr. This Information comes from Assistant Sur geon Wajdlne , whose regular station is at Mobile , but who Is granted permission to go to Ocean St'Htigs ' in company with other physicians , nnd It Is In accord with the con- elusions reached by Messrs , Harralson and Hunter , of the Mlslsslppl State Build of Health , In their report to Governor Me- Laiirln , Dr. Wasdlnc's dispatch Isas follows : "A second autopsy confirms the diagnosis of yellow fever. There Is general acquies cence In this opinion. The town Is nearly depopulated. No need of great alarm. " Notwithstanding the opinion reached by Dr. Wa dlne , Ihe officials here are loath to believe the disease Is yellmv tover. While attaching much Importance to Dr. Wasdlno's conclusions , the bureau , In view of the gravity of the case , will await a report from Dr. John Gultcras , of the University ot Pennsylvania , who has been requested to proceed to Ocean Springs , before any action Is taken. The latter Is an authority on tin * disease. Dr. Gullcras la a Cutun by bl'th , lia.5 himself had a case of yellow fever and has Htient. much time In places where It has existed. It Is felt that his opinion of the disease should be known before any stringent measures or precautions are taken , especially In view at the fact that the regu lations Incident thereto always Involve hard ship , and Iti view of the further fact that the mortality In the present case has been so light as to make the officials here doubt whether there Is 'any yellow fever at all. It Is not known when Dr. Gultcras will teach Ocean Springs , but the assumption is that he will start promptly for that placo. Tim action to be taken hereafter will depend almost entirely upon the nature of his re port. If the disease is found by him to bo yellow fever , active steps will be taken to prevent Its spread and to stamp It out. A camp of detention will bo established and other necessary measures taken. The opin ion of Dr. Uailbache Is that the disease can 'JP confined to a limited area and that It can make but little If any headway , as the season of frost Is near at hand. Telegrams of Inquiry from physicians In all parts of the country are being received by Dr. Ballbacho concerning the reported existence of yellow fever. SATISVIKU 'TIS A'HI.I.OW FISVKIt.

He reports that the Louisiana medical authorities are satisfied now the cases examined there are true typos of > cllow fever. Upon receipt of this rcpo t and upon further reports that there Is sus picious sickness In Scronton , Miss. , forty miles west of Mobile , on the coast , quaran tine was extended so ns to Include that place and all other points on the Mississippi sound ccast this side of New Orleans. Sanitary officers arc located at Theodore Station , west of he.c. where a rigid Inquiry will bo con ducted , and any persons from the Infected localities will be held In a camp of detention. It Is understood the quarantine is absolute now as to persons , baggage , etc. , from Ocean Sin-Ings , and will be made absolute against the same from all other places on the coasi after the arrival of the train at 12 o'clock tonight. The Board of Health tonight further extended the quarantine so as to include New 0leans. Members of the board reported tlmt they had Investigated and found no case of any Eiisplcious sickness in Mobile. A telegram from Birmingham , Ala. , says tint city will establish a rigid quarantine igalnst the Infected district until the Board of Health meets in Montgomery Wednesday , when it is expected a state quarantine will be established. There Is some anxiety felt here , although confidence la felt in the health officers and lueeatitlons taken. Moblllans at the north are advised by their friends to remain away until the situation here is moro certain than now. As many Moblllans have recently re turned from the Infected locality , it would not bo surprising were a few to be taken ill 'iut none are as yet known , and physicians are pledged to Immediately report to the Board of Health any such case. Pensacola , Fla. , has arranged a quaran tine covering al ] trains coming from the direction of Ocean Springs and the city authorities there will co-operate with the state health officers. Mcrldlen , Miss. , has Instituted rigid quar antine against every point Infected by yellow fever und guards were sent out on the vall- rcads with Instructions not to permit uny passengers , baggage or freight to enter them from such places. nST VIII.I.SII "A MM , ! } UIt.YIIA.VMM- : .

Haralson and J. P. Hunter , membera of the Mississippi State I card of Health , now at Ocean Springs , .Miss. , stating It was the unanimous opinion uf representatives of the boardw of health of Louisiana , Alabama nnd Mississippi and of iho marlno hospital service that without doubt > ellow fever was now raging nt that port. port.The The city council at a special meeting hold late this afternoon decided to Inaugurate a limited quarantine against the gulf coast , the seeno of the yellow fever epidemic , and police officers will meet all trains coming from the south and see that no person from the Infected district alights hero. The receipt of the news from Ocean Springs created a mild sensation In this city and many people departed northward. This feeling waa Intensified by the fact that It was rumored that there were seven canes of yellow fever near -Edwards , a small town thirty miles west of here , and that this was thi cause of death there ot Hon. Sid Cham pion , a prominent member of the legislature. A telegram from Kdwardis stated that a fam ily of nine persons had recently returned from un outing at Ocean Springs and after their return seven of them were taken with n fever. Mr. Champion had visited the family and two days afterward was taken blmilarly and died yesterday afternoon. The news from the gulf coast serves to recall to the people. of Jack son the stirring times - of 1878 , when the city was devastated by the jfllow plague and when for days a veritable rnlgn of terror oppressed the city and vicin ity. During these times thn shotgun played a prominent part and was found to bo by far the most persuasive means of preventing Ihu npreail ot the. plague.

Those landed at Dyea are get ting over the Chllkoot pass all right , but none as yet have got over the White pass via Skagway. Many horses have been ruined by the mire , and the men know they cannot get through , so that many have had their Roods carried around to Dyea , but It Is oxpenshe and a largo portion of the army or travelers have no money for such purposes , and Just what such outfits are goIng - . Ing to do IB a mystery. They arc now eat ing up supplies which they expected to use In the Yukon country , and when their stores have been exhausted they have no funds to provide more. A whiter outfit for going Into the Interior Is quite a different proposition from what these people have had at present. Juneau merchants have sent up a stock of goods to sell ut Skagway and a small amount of lumber has gone up , so that a few shacks can be erected , but the Inmates of the hundreds of tents are slightly provided to withstand the force of the'wlnjs and storms of the country. ( Jtilto a number have turned back without allowing their out fits to bo taken ofC the boat bringing them up , and many are dropping out from the camp , coming to Juneau and finally returnIng - Ing to the United States. In Juneau at present there are quite n number of well known mining men who are desirous of procuring some mining property In south eastern Alaska.

It brings down one miner from Juneau , who Is dlsgus'od with the outlook for getting into the gold fields this fall. Its cattle > nd horses were landed safely , 'but ' Ameri can customs officials charged a duty of $30 on each horse. On the way down the Cap ltano spoke the cteamer Bristol and the stern wheeler Eugene , which left Victoria last week at Alert bay. The Eugene com menced leaking soon after leaving Union , where , it Is remembered , It was seized for violation of the Canadian customs regula tions , but got away by cutting its hawser. It took the Bristol twenty-four hours to tow it back to Alert bay. An attempt is being made to patch It up , but the pas sengers refuse to travel on it. They wanted to charter the Capltano , but as It had pas sengers for Vancouver , Captain Powls was unable to assist them. He spoke the steamer Tees , of Victoria , on the way down and doubtless It will go to their assistance. The Capltano brings no news of Importance from the north.

The report from the mayor was made In conformance with his appointment ns chairman of the finance committee to In quire Into the condition of the fire and police fund. It was AH 'follows : OMAHA , Sept. ' ! . To the Honorable , the Hoard of Fire and 1'ollce Commissioners : Gentlemen As chairman of the finance committee of the Hoard of Fire and i'ollce commissioners I deem It my duty , In view of the recent Increase In tne expenses nnd salaries of the police department , to call the board's attention to the necessity for Immediate retrenchment , The nniount In the available police fund for 1S97 was $78"riG.47 , of which nniount $ , " , Sn03.Sl , had been expended on September 2 , 1S:17 : , leaving1 n balance In the fund of ( M.'i.Mi.l with whlci to meet the expenses of the police depart ment for the remaining four months ot the year , or nn average of $ . ' ,113 per month. The average monthly expense of the de partment for the last nine mouths has been * fi,47S. The secretary of the board estlmatta that by the recent net of the board In plao- Ing two more captains on the police torcc and Incurring additional obligations , f > o expense of the department beginning Sep tember 1 will be Increased ne.irly fc00 ! per month after di'duetlng the saving effected by laying off each member of the force in .short time \\ltr.out pay. On this basis , there fore , the average monthly expense for tie remainder of the year will be $ ( i.C7S , and there will be but $ T > , lll : with which to meet it. Accoidlngly , wo will have a monthly deficit of Jl.lisO , or u deficit of $5,7:0 at the end of the year. This state of affairs de mands the Immediate attention of the board. The citizens of Omaha , acting thro''Kh the city council , saw ill at the bcKlnnliiK of the year to limit the expenditures of the police department to ? 7S,7iii ; . 17 for 1S07. This boaid v.'lll not be true to Its trust if It does not use every means In Us power to pre vent this JCi,70 deficiency. There Is no other fund from which money can be drawn to supplement the police fund. The city charter expressly forblda the transfer of moneys from one special fund to another , or from the general fund to any special fund. The condition of the city tlnances was dis cussed last Thursday evening at an Informal nuethiK of the members of the city council and tie various city olllclals , und from Un feeling expressed I know that the city council would take no steps toward supple- mcn'lng ' the police fund even if It could legally do so , for the reason that It be lieves the fund Is being wantonly wasted In paying useless salaries for political pur poses. This board should Immediately cur tail the expenses of the police department $1OSO per month so as to bring our expenses within our Income and reach the end of the year free from debt. The citizens of Omaha rightly expect us to conduct this department for the public good , and not for personal ends or partisan purposes. Trusting- that the board will at once con sider plans by which this retrenchment may be effected , 1 remain , respectfully. FIJANIC E. MOOUK3. Chairman Finance Committee. DEXDAND3 AN APOLOGY , , . After remaining In secret session until 11:30 : the board passed the following resolu tion , which will be handed to the mayor : Whereas , The mayor , under the n ° sumed ofllce of chairman of the finance committee , has submitted n communication to this board wherein he assumes to charge this board with squiinderlnit the moneys of the police fund for political purposes , and Whereas , The charges arc untrue In fact and known to the mover to be so at the time of such utterance , and that said mayor as chairman of this board has fully con curred In the making of the appointments to each and every oflice FO filled by this board In each and every particular , and approved ot every element of expense so created without objection , It Is therefore Resolved , That the attempt of the mayor to reflect upon the action of the board , of the statement so made , can only be con sidered as wholly unjustified , and known at the time ns without any clement of truth , and It is the sense of this board that the statement so communicated be withdrawn with an apology to the board for the at tempted rcllectlon 'so made. The case of Robert McLood , plpcmun for No. 1 engine company , In which he was charged with disrespectful conduct toward Chief Uedell. was given n hearing , and Mc Lood was dismissed ftom the department. The application of Hans Hennlngsen for a change of location on a saloon license from C21 Pacific street to 1308 Gnrflold street , was set for a hearing on Thursday night. This was done on account of a protest from Otto Lund , who alleged that Hennlngsen hod sold him the license , and had no right to change It from the number where it had been first Issued. A request from Chief Gallagher that the board appoint twenty special olllccrs for serv ice during fair week was granted , nnd the chief was directed to select thirty names from which the board would pick out the requisite number. The charges against Officer Shocp. made by Albert C. Carlson of the Ahheuscr-niiEch Drawing company , was dismissed upon In vestigation. Loaves of absence of ten days each were granted to George Lewis and C , A. Halter of the fire department , and Chief Hedell was directed to afford the city the some extra fire protection during fair week as upon previous occasions. John Reed , engineer In the fl-e depart ment , was placed upon the carpet for fall ing to let water through his steamer In the proper manner at the fire which took place at G. M , Hitchcock' * residence , 2009 Dodge street , August 28. A hearing In his case was sot for the next meeting. Captain John Slmppon of No. S and Assistant Kngineer Thomas Rochford , also charged with the same improper performance of duty , were reprl- tnanded. Five men wore appointed by the beard for duty on the flro department as extra men. Their names are Earnest Rissl , James Mur- nhy , Nols Anderson , J.V. .

AKTIill TIIU IXSIM3UTOU. l.ticlKrrrt AUorne.VM Will Try to Ini- lieneh HN Testimony. CHICAGO , Sept. C. An Important confer ence was held today between the state's attorney nnd the experts In the Luet ert murder case. In which "corpus delicti" waa under discussion. If the state can prove conclusively a "corpus delicti" can show that portions of the body of a human being were taken from the fatal vat and from the ashes from the furnace It will have a case of remarkable strength. The great point Is the Identification us human the bones fo-.ud near the outhouse whcro Krank Odorofskl cald he dumped the residue of the vat nnd the bones found In the ashes of the furnace. None of thu parties to the conference would tell definitely of the results. "H can be stated , " said State's Attorney Deneeii and Assistant State's Attorney Mc- RW.UI , "that the siate has found that It can produce convincing proof uf the 'corpus ce- iectl. ' Further than that It would be unwise to state at the present time. " It Is predicted that the fiercest legal battle of the Luetgert murder trial will come when 1'ollce Inspector Schaack , who has been very active in ferreting out the mystery sur rounding Mrs. Luetgcrt's disappearance , takes the stand , should it dually bo decided to call him as a witness. It i.s at the dooi of the north sldo Inspector that Adolph Luetgert lays his present troubles. . The sausage maker Is extremely bitter against Schaack , and his attorneys have tried to bring out evidence to show that wltnesbcs have Iron coached and that even money has been used by tH0 police In fixing testimony. Klfort were made to show the police methods In the Instance of Gotlleba A. Schlmpke by trying to draw from her that the agreement with the police ma tron was merely a scheme to keep the girl under police control. This , taken with the bitter personal feeling which Attorney Vin cent Is said to harbor against Schaack , would likely make the court room sccno that would follow the Introduction of the Inspector as n wltncso ouo of the most exciting feature-1 of the trial. In fact , It has been learned that the defense had some twenty-live wlt- nc&'iea who will he put on the stand for the purpose of impeaching the testimony of the inspector. A. B. Grotty of New York Is coming to Chicago to testify In the defense of Adolph L. Luctgcrt. He will bo the 'Star witness for the defense and upon his testimony Luct- gert will depend to prove to the court and jury that his wife was alive after the day bo Is supposed to have killed her. In fact. Grotty will furnish the defense In the case. This announcement was made today by At torney Vincent. The news that Grotty has determined to bo a witness was conveyed to Attorney Vin cent by a telegram from Grotty that when ever telegraphed for he would take the fastest train to Chicago. This telegram was followed by a long letter which said It was the testimony of Captain Schuettlcr that caused him to change his mind. When Grotty read in the newspapers that the cap tain had taken the stand and had sworn that ho had visited New York for the purpose of looking up his record and that he was prepared - pared to attend to Grotty If he came here and committed perjury , the wrath , of the New York man know no bounds.

( New York World Cablegram Special Telegram. ) It was the direct personal Intervention of Queen Vic toria , on * her own Initiative , that averted a war bstween the United States p.nd Great Britain over the seizure of Mason nnd S1I- del ! nn the British ship during Iho civil war. This highly Interesting historical fact Is re vealed for the first time by the writer of "Current Fact" In the current Issue of the Quarterly Review , whose contributions , though anonymous , arc accepted by all men of high landing in literature and politics as ac'.M.rato. He says : "Wo arc In a posi tion to state on the authority ot ono of the most prominent statesmen of our time , who iKid the distinguished linnor of enjoying In a pccial manner the confld * nee of her ma- jeety , that It was the queen herself , in op position to the vlewu of her ministers nnd of tl'o distinguished man In question , who iivortod war. She Insisted that the dispatch which was sent to America , demanding peremptorily thu surrender of the envoyo , should bo communicated nt once to all the powers and the grave consequences of the conflict from an internatlon.il point of view bo pointed out. The result was an able state paper , Bent to Washington by M , Thouvcnal , stating that Fiance regarded the act of the American cnpiain who hail nr- rested the cnnfcderalo envoys on board the Hngllsh Hhlp as quite unjustifiable and ex pressed the hope that the federal govern ment would ai'coilo to the demands of Great Drlir.in.
