allowed to prosecuto .the case at all unt.l
all costs for the past and the future cases

"It Is all news to me," said T. J. Ma

when asked .about this matter. "I have
had no advice about this proposition at
all and know nothing about It."
"Will the Civic Federation proceed with
the second trial of -the Dennlson case?"

"That I cannot ay," replied Mr. Ma
honey. Elmer E Thomas, asked regarding this
matter, said: - '

fact that two of the persons employed

Old People have more of the pains,

Ordlnsnrri Considered.
These ordinances were read a first and
second time and referred to committees:
Paving with asphalt, Thirty-third street
from Cuming to Charles; paving with
asphalt. Twentieth street from Dodge to
Cass; paving with asphalt, Howard street
from Thirty-fifth avenue to Thirty-sixth
street; paving with vitrified brick, Douglas
street from Twentieth to Twenty-forth
street.
These ordinances were read a third time
and passed: Redisricting the wards of
the city; compelling public utility corpora
tions, before tearing up a street to deposit
the amount of damages estimated, before
proceeding with the work,' to Insure re
pairing the street; repavlng with asphalt,
Thirty-seventh street from Farnam to
Dodtfe.
City Engineer Rosewater sent a com
munication to the council protesting against
the resolution which directed him to sur
vey Jones street to show where houses
ahould be located, (unless an appropriation
waa made to pay for the work. The en
gineer held that the work benefited no one
except property owners and therefore the
council was making a private surveyor out
of a city officer. The communication was
referred.
Police Judge Berka was granted a leave
Of absence for twenty-eight days.
The council adjourned until 8 o'clock
Thursday night, at which time It will take
up some paving matters.

Wheat Has Sot Sustained Serloae
Injury from Host.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 8.-The weekly bul
letin of the weather bureau summarises
crop conditions as follows.
Texas and Oklahoma experienced very
warm weather, while It was too cool over
the northern portion of the lake region
and on the California coast; otherwise the
temperature conditions during the week
ending August 7 were generally favorable.
Too much rain proved detrimental In por
tions of Nebraska. Kansas and Missouri
and also In Florida and portions of Missis
sippi, but In northern Alabama. Georgia
and the Carolina and over a considerable
part of the middle Atlantic states. Ohio
valley and Tennessee rain Is much needed,
the effects of drougth becoming serious
over the greater part of Georgia. Rain Is
also needed on the north Pacific coast.
Over the central and western portions of
the corn belt and the greater part of the
middle Atlantic states corn continues In
excellent condition and. while needing rain
In the Ohio vailev. the condition of tho
crop In that district is generally promis
ing. Threshing of winter wheat is largely
completed In the principal wheat states.
This work has, however, been interrupted
by rains In Kansas and complaints of in
Jury from moisture, continue from portions
of Tennessee and the middle Atlantic
states. Plowing for fall seeding Is In prog
ress In the southern portion of the central
valleys.
While rust In spring wheat Is more or
less prevalent In the Kakotas and to some,
extent In Nebraska and Minnesota, the re
ports generally Indicate that the crop has
not sustained serious injury. Harvest is
nearly finished in Iowa and Is In progress
In Nebraska and the southern portions of
South Dakota, but has not yet begun In
North Dakota, where the crop generally Is
In excellent condition, with long heads
which are filling well. In Oregon harvest
ing Is active, with yields below expecta-.
Hons; In Washington spring wheat is ripen
ing rapidly and Is beyond further Injury
from hot winds.
Nearly all reports Indicate that a good
crop of oats has been secured. Harvest
ing Is now finished except in extremely
northerly districts, where It Is well ad
vanced. Cotton shows some Improvement In Ten
nessee. Alabama. Mississippi, North Caro
lina, Arkansas, Oklahoma and Indian Ter
ritories, northeastern Texas and portions
of Louisiana, but elsewhere over the cot
ton belt the crop has deteriorated. The
prevalence of rust Is very generally re
ported from the -eastern districts and also
from portions of the central and western
districts. Boll weevils and boll worms are
doing considerable damage In Texas and
western Louisiana, but In the first named
state they are less numerous. Picking Is
general In southern Texas and some central
counties of that state and has commenced
over the southern portion of the eastern
districts.
Tobacco has gone well generally, but
needs rain and cultivation In Kentucky
and sunshine In Virginia.
The reports coneernng apple continued
unfavorable from nearly all districts.
Where unfinished, haying has progressed
under generally favorable conditions.

In the third round. Among the surprises
was the remarkably hard game Piatt and
Seckey of Eagle Grove gave to the men
from southeastern Iowa. The doubles will

Total sub-foci
These figures vary slightly
that have been sent out lately
official record which was today corrected
to date.
The large number of new cases and sub-
foci Is surprising, but no attempt Is being
made to account for It. Of the new sub
foci, three are uptown and the remainder
downtown. Two dead men were found In
shanty In the woods and It was found
that they had died of yellow fever. They
were Italians who had died from la-k of
attention. The State BonYd of Health to
day took up the question of enforcing a
sensible system of quarantines In the State
and In accordance with the state law. The
board decided to call on the governor for
the mllltla to protect travel through such
parishes which have Imposed drastic quar
antines.
Archbishop Charpelle passed the crisis
in his illness today and Is now regarded as
on the road to recovery. One new case of
fever developed on Elisabeth plantation
In Iberville parish, where an Italian died
about two weeks ago.
Order y State Board.
If the present chaotic condition of quar
antine in Louisiana is not speedily termi
nated, in obedience to a proclamation is
sued today, the State Hoard of Health has
nnounced its Intention of Immediately In
voking- the civil powers, and that falling,
of asking Governor Blanchard to call out
the mllltla and restore and maintain order.
The proclamation resulted from the letters
sent yesterday by the governor to Presi
dent Souchon. The proclamation prohibits
any town, parish or village from refusing
admission to a certificate not over twenty-
four hours old, or to persons from an in
fected locality, who has spent six days In
a detention camp and been discharged with
marine hospital certificate. Interference
with the passage of steamboats or trains
Is forbidden, unless they violate legal
quarantine regulations. No mall, freight
or express matter shall, under the procla
mation, be refused from infected terri
tories, provided It is carried In cars which
have been fumigated by the marine hos
pital Bervtce. All persons who disregard
these regulations, under the semblance of
boards of health, or mass meetings, are
warned that they make themselves liable
to answer In the courts. It Is announced
that no more Illegal restraints on travel
or commerce will be tolerated.
Modifies Onerous Rejrnlatfon.
It is understood that the action taken
by the Hoard of Health has tho full sym
pathy of Oovernor Rlanchard and as a
result, at least In Louisiana, there will
be a modification of the present onerous
quarantine. Because of the large number
of coses reported, the fever situation did
not have so favorable an aspect today,
Dut it is expected the increase is the re
sult of. the Investigation of a number of
suspicious cases of sickness, some of which
the health authorities were unable to In
quire Into yesterday. The Inspectors of the
marine hospital service spent much of the
day in Inspection, and these showed an
increase in the number of cases from noon
to 3 o'clock. The federal authorities have
determined to treat every case presenting
any symptoms of yellow' fever as actually
yellow fever, preferring to take no risk
of falling through want of vigilance. Dr.
White said if he knew of every case of
fever at present in tlw city as well as every
case that had existed that he would feel
that the disease would be stamped out In
thirty days. Ills policy, therefore. Is to
locate every possible focus of Infection,
so that precaution may be taken to pre
vent additional infection.
Funds Now In Sight.
Practically all doubt of the raising of
the fund of 2S0,0i desired by the govern
ment was removed today when both the
state and the city moved to assist the
citizens of New Orleans. Oovernor Rlanch
ard, whom Chairman Janvier of the citi
zens' committee had asked to advance 1100,
000, wired Mr. Janvier that he would make
the loan as soon as he heard from a suf
ficient number of members of the legisla
ture If they will support an appropriation
of 8100,000.,- Affirmative answers are being
received. In addition to this action of the
governor, the city took steps to swell the
fund. In addition to $70,000 originally in
the hands of the committee, 4220,000 Is in
sight.
Surgeon White put irr-a hard half day's
work here and In the afternoon took a
train for Lafayette, La., to attend a con
ference of various health boards In that
portion of the state with a view of securing
an amelioration of quarantine regulations.
Dr. White expects that by tomorrow night
all the additional health officers which
the government has ordered to New Or
leans will be here and ready to begin work.
It Is considered not Improbable that the
marine hospital service will open a supply
depot at New Orleans, wiere medicines
and medical supplies may be furnished to
those who are in distress.
Will Clean Cltr Today.
Wednesday la the day set for the general
street cleaning movement. There will be
a pretty general suspension of business,
bll of the merchants volunteering to lend
their carts and wagons and employes to as
sist in the work.
Mayor Behrtnan said that the city hall
would be closed during the day. Mean
while the city is arranging to continue the
large force of special men it put to work
Monday during the rest of the week.
The difficulties the authorities encounter
in getting at concealed cases waa Illustrated
today whan Police Officer Orcgaon was
perhaps fatally Injured while trying to
break Into a house where there was known
to be a case of yellow fever. Oregson was
called on to assist the authorities. Bo stub
born waa the opposition of the people at a
bouse on Char'res street against Invasion
by the Inspectors thrft It became necessary
to break In, wtih the result that a heavy
oaken door fell on Oregson and crushed
him.
Funerals of yellow fever patients and
wakes of the dead proceed with little ob
struction from the health authorities.
Deaths oa Isthmus.
WASHINGTON, Aug 8. The isthmian
canal commission today received a cable
gram from Oovernor Magoon announcing
the death of A. O. Livingston, a division
engineer' at Culebra, from yellow fever.
Livingston was from St. Louis, Mo.
Two new cases of yellow fever were re
ported, Juan Barrero, a Spanish non
employe at Panama, and William Curnow,
forwarded his report to Washington.

cation translations must be made to M.
Wltte. Should French be the language
decided upon, translations will have to be
made, preferably Into English, for the
Japanese.
While there are no official statements
or predictions regarding the outcome of
the forthcoming negotiations, tonight the
prevalence of a general goid feeling Is
noticeable throughout the environs of peace
missions.
Arrival of Fleet.
The fleet was off the harbor entrance
shortly after 9 o'clock and It was but a few
moments after 9.30 when the vessels
dropped anchor off the navy yard.
At the Hotel Wentworth M. Wltte got
up early, beginning at once work preparing
with M. Wllenkln some dispatches to his
government In nswer to those which
reached him during the night. Speaking to
the representative of the Associated Press,
he said that he Is more than ever animated
by the desire of doing all In his power to
conclude peace, but that, as he hns often
stated, all will depend on what the Japa
nese expect to obtain. However, ho will
leave nothing unattempted to reach the de
sired object and In case: of failure the
world will Judge on whom the responsi
bility shall rest. Changing argument to
conversation, M. Wltte, who had been
working up to then In his shirt sleeves,
said that notwithstanding the beautiful
scenery and the sea breeze he had felt
pretty warm everywhere. "I expected that
It would be cooler," he added.
M. Wltte lunched In his own room, then
dressed In a frock coat and white vest
to go on board the Mayflower, accompanied
to the boat landing by M. Wllenkln and
Mr. Batcheff and escorted by Mr. Moses,
secretary to Oovernor Mcl.ane.
At 11:30 a steam cutter flying the Amer
ican flag and a Russian flag rounded Hen
derson's point, and heading for the navy
yard soon made fast to the decorated
float moored to the sea wall, and M. Wltte
the Russian chief plenipotentiary, stepped
out. He was formally greeted by the
rear admiral and his staff. Another launch
bringing Ambassador Rosen and party
then drew up and a similar greeting was
extended to him. As these envoys stepped
ashore the saluting battery of the navy
yard fired a salute of nineteen guns.
Japanese Arrive.
Almost Immediately tnereafter a' steam
cutter with the Japanese envoys aboard
hove In sight and the battery again re
peated its welcome, while the same form
of presentation and greeting as had been
given the Russians was extended by the
officers to Baron Komura and Minister
Takahlra.
From the landing to the naval stores
building over a straight gravel path
marines were drawn up on cither side and
through their lines the envoys marched to
the scene of their further labors. The pro
cession was led by Admiral Mead and MK
Wltte. Once Inside tho building the pleni
potentiaries and their suites were assigned
to their respective rooms.
The program as officially mapped out
by Third Assistant Secretary of State
Peirce, Rear Admiral Mead, commandant
of the Portsmouth navy yard, and Oov
ernor John McLane for the ofllcial recep
tion of the peace envoys was thus carried
out without modification or hindrance.
It was shortly after the noon hour when
the rear admiral and the- envoys entered
there.
The building, which had been fitted up as
a cafe for the use o'f the peace party,
where the formal breakfast of Rear Ad
miral Mead to the plenipotentiaries had
been spread. The apartment was decorated
with flags and streamers. The tables were
prepared for sixty-five persons, those pres
ent including, besides the distinguished
Russians and Japanese, the naval officers
attending Rear Admiral Mead, their wives
and a number of prominent Portsmouth
residents.
Governor Mcl.ane Talks.
When the lunch was over the start for
Portsmouth was begun, at 1:S5 o'clock. A
band of marines escorted the distinguished
party to the navy yard, where the marine
escort was withdrawn and the mile and a
quarter to Portsmouth was covered In
automobiles without a guard. At tho
Portsmouth end of the bridge, across the
Plscataqua river, was drawn up the escort
regiment of the New Hampshire National
Guard. The regiment got under way with
out delay and headed by the First Regi
ment band of the state, took up the line of
march to the county court house, where
Governor McLane and his staff were
waiting to extend the greetings of the
state and where Mr. Pierce as representa
tive of the nation welcomed the envoys.
The governor's opening address was brief,
but cordial.
In behalf of the government and the
people of New Hampshire I have the pleas
ure and honor of extending to your ex
cellencies the hospitality of our stale. We
realize that you have come upon a mo
mentous errand and I am sure that I
voice the sentiments of all the world In
expressing here. In this ancient community,
where cluster many of the finest traditions
of American history, you may be able so
to proceed with your historic negotiations
that they may be crowned by a treaty of
Portsmouth, whoso enduring terms will re
flect credit upon yourselves, will meet the
approval of the Illustrious sovereigns whom
you represent and will prove a blessing to
your people and a benefaction to all man
kind.
The reception' party Included Governor
John McLane, United States Senator Jacob
H. Galllnger and Henry Burnhum and Con
gressmen Cyrus A. Sulloway and Frank E.
Currier of New Hampsnlre, Secretary of
State E. N. Pearson and members of the
governor's staff and council.
Interest In France.
PARIS, Aug. 8. Diplomatists and govern
ment officials are manifesting the greatest
Interest relative to the outcome of the
peace conference. The buoyant tendency
of the Bourse, where Russian securi
ties are very firm, shows that thU view Is
also prevalent in commercial circles.
