Extreme. Measures Being Taken

«Shot dun Quarantine Es-
tablished ., and Trains Pre-
vented from Running

 

I

NEW ORLEANS. ~Aug. 4.~Extreme
measures which some of the country
‘dibtricts are taking to guard them-
selves from yellow fever threaten to
stop train service and may bring the
federal government into the fever
situation in the south. "«.,The most
radical action thus far on is that
of the police board of Ca casieu, the
second wrest parish in the state. it
has ordered that all trafIIic between
Csicssien and points east. north and
west shall cease at. once and that no
one shall be permitted to enter the
limits of the parish until further or-
ders. As a result the Southern Paci-
fic has been ordered from today to
run no more trains through Calcu-
sieu. which means an abandonment
of tbe‘through service of the line
to, the‘west. Tbs Watkins trains and
the Kenna City Southern trains have

. also, been stopped. it is understood
that the quarantine in a day or two
will be extended to all freight trains.
The effect of the orders In to stop all
mail service into or through Calcu-
eieu.

Reptiles has shut her doors to every-
thing except mail and fuel oil.

At Mermentau. Le... shots were ex-
fi gauged between guards and a negro
w a was trying to pass their quar-
antine. and Lafayette, La.. has issued
orders that only mail and disinfected
height shall come into the parish.
Precautions as radical as these have
been taken in many other sections and
there is apparently as great a panic
new prevailing as at any time during
1807, the bulk of the country laymen
refusing to put their faith in the mo-

Iii-chard Street refund for
New iron Nellie

A-monihiy business meeting of the
Norwsik water commissioners was
held last evening. at their office. in
Wall street. 'I‘wo petitions were re-
ceived. one from the residents of East
avenue to Earle's Hill. The other pe-
tition was a similar request for Or-
chard street from residents of that
thoroughfare.

These petitions will be turned over
to the City Council for action, as the
commissioners have not the power to
proceed with the desired improve-
ment.

The commissioners are considering
the advisability of flushing the city
hydrants in order to get out all traces
of the disagreeable water that has
been circulating through the pipes
during the past few weeks. while the
water was low in the Grupe reservoir.
While the latter wasso low thepond
fermented and the III smelling and
tasting water resulted. The Grupe
reservoir is now almost full and the
water is getting back to its normal
condition. The Scott reservoir, above.
now has its full capacity. ‘

A large number of people of the
city are now using filtered or s ring
water and most of them will pro bly
not use the city water for anything
but washing purposes until fail.

Commissioner Wallace Dana stated
this morning that the mains are now
gradually clearing themselves of the
distasteful water with which they have
been filled.

Special Te beam Service In

Their Honor Today In St.
Nicholas Orthodox Cathedral,
New York, and Later They
Want to Oyster Bay.

 

NEW YORK, August i.——-Sergius

Witte and Baron Rosen. the Russian
peace envoys. attended the high mass
and special Te Deum service today.
which Is the date in the Eastern
Christian calendar of St. Mary’s day.
it was also the name day of her Ms-
lesty Marie Feodorovna, the Russian
empress dowager. The services were
celebrated at the St. Nicholas Ortho
dox Cathedral. '
At the conclusion of the religious ser-
vice Mr. Witte and Baron - Roses
started for President Roosevelt's sum-
mer.bome at Oyster Bay. where Mr.
Witte was to be formally presented to
the president by Baron Rosen A ape.
ciai parlor car was attached to the
long island Railroad train which corr-
veyed them from Long island City to
Oyster Boy.

gregory Wilkenla, financial agent of
the Russian government, said today:

"The statement In thirunorniug‘s pa-
per to the effect that Mr. Witte Is
sounding American financiers with a
view to the placing of a new Russian
loan In the United States is wholly
without foundation. Mr. Witte's visit
to Wall Street yesterday was one of
curiousity simply. It is quite true that
he had interviews with some leading
financiers and no doubt he will have
interviews with many more. But all
of these gentlemen are personal
friends and acquaintances of Mr. Wit-
te. who knew them during his term
clothes as minister of finance, and the
calls were of a purely social character
and had no relation whatever to a Rus-
sion loan. Naturally.” Mr. Witte has
long made a study of economic ques-
tions it gives him great pleasure to
discuss with the men of affairs of this
country. these Important questions
with a view to learning of the meth-
ods adopted. in the~ United Statics."

statement. Chief Snagg told him in do

locked up. Rev. Dr. Davenport, of
the Second Congregational Church.

selves in Miller's behalf today. vouch-
Iug for his good character. and assist,
Iug In procuring his release.

Thieves broke into the residence of

The burglary occurred in broad day-
light. while the family was attending
