THE YELLOW JAOK SGARB.
The: Reports Received at Washington Are
Uniformly Encouraging.
Washington, Sept. 10.—The yellow fe-
ver situation continues hopeful and en-
couraging so far as the information re-
ceived at the marine hospital is con-
cerned. Dr. Guiteras, the yellow fever
expert, telegraphs from Ocean Springs
to Surgeon General Wyman: “HaVe
seen today 25 cases of dengue. Will
withhold opinion about 3 other
cases. There are 38 sickin town. Three
new cases.” Notwithstanding the fact
that Dr. Guitéras is not yet convinced
that, there is agenulne case of yellow
fever at Ocean Springs, Surgeon Gen-
eral Wyman is pushing measures to
confine and stamp out the disease
should it eventually prove to be yellow
jack.»
Surgeon H. C. Carter of Chicago. who
is a fever expert of large experience.
and Surgeon Murray, who will be in
command at Ocean Springs, have an-
noui‘zced their arrival. The rigorous na-
ture of the quarantine at Ocean Springs
is shown by Dr. Murray’s telegram:
“Arrived at 5 o’clock. Tried to get
through on engine, but could not get
permission‘ from Mississippi board of
health until 1:30 a. m. Dr. Gant of state
board in charge. There is a state cordon
about town of 25 posts, which the state
proposes to maintain for the present or
until the danger increases. There are
here, perhaps, 50 people who will ac-
cept camp. Will try to make census to-
morrow as was done at Brunswick,
without which there can be no clear ac-
tion. Lime, sulphur, blchloride, alcohol
and ovens ordered with which to begin
disinfection.”
New Orleans, Sept. 10.—A bulletin
from Ocean Springs, Miss, todaysays:
“One death at Ocean Springs today. All
physicians in town, including marine
hospital experts, holding autopsy.”
A later dispatch on the same subject
from the doctor stated that the physi-
cians had all agreed, after the autopsy,
that it was a case of genuine yellow
fever.
San Francisco, Sept. 10._—The quaran—
tine oflicers at this port are on the look-
out for vessels from Panama and Cen-
tral American ports. They will take
every precaution to prevent yellow fe-
ver being brought to this, port. They
are acting on the belief that the fever
on the gulf coast came from the isth-
mus.

_ 131G BROKERS FAIL.
J. R. Willard & T10. Were on the Wrong
Slde of the Rising Market.
New York, Sept. 10.—James R. Wil-
lard, Elmer Dwiggins and Jay Dwig-
gins, who compose the firm of J. R.
Willard & 00., bankers and brokers,
with offices at 55, 280 and 1227 Broad-
way, this city; 386 Ellicott square, Buf— ’
falo; 1343 F street, Washington; 103
Chestfiut street, Philadelphia, and 1719
Notre Dame street, Montreal, today as-
signed to James L. Starbuck, with :1.
preference for $20,000 to William H. 03-
terhout.
The assignee, Mr. Starbuck, is one of
the bookkeepers of the firm. On his
behalf another employee made the fol-
lowing statement:
“It is difficult to tell what the liabili-
ties of the firm are, but they are cer.
tainly very large. They will probably
amount to as much as $51,000,000. It is
even more difficult at this time to give
any idea of the assets of the firm.
Whatever they are, they consist mainly
of cash in bank, outstanding accounts
and securities.
a {‘The cause of the firm's failure was
that it was on the wrong side of the
market. It was short of wheat and of
almost all the. principal stocks. The
sharp rise in wheat especially crippled
it.
is!
“There is some prospect of a resump-
tion of business. provided a reasonable
settlement can be made with creditors.
“The firm was founded two years ago
by J.‘ R. Willard. Mr. Willard is a man
about 55 years old and has had? long
experience in the banking and broker-
age business. He was formerly with
Kennett & Hopkins in Chicago, and two
years ago formed his present partner:
rhip with Elmer and Jay leggins,
two brothers who had been in the real
*state business in Chicago.

THEY WILL BOLT
The People of the IIorwaIks are
Viially Interested
One Case, and There are
Others.
There is a. large body of bolters in
the Norwalks and vicinity.
The movement has been gaining
f01 cc for some time and has become so
powerful that. those interested 3.1 e anx-
ious to declare themselves. They are
bolting ancient and useless methods of
t1eat1no catarrh and hay fever, and
thev habve come over in full force for
California Catarrh Cure because they
have tried it and know its worth. Here
are the words from :1. Norwalk man
who has tried many medicines and
treatments before he got what he
wanted California Catarrh Cure the
greatest and only known cure for ca-
tarrh. _
Mr. Alfred Platt, 9 Maple street,Nor-
walk, says: "' I have been a great suffer-
er from catarrh for over thirty years,
having contracted the disease during
the war. My whole head seemed full of
scabs, and the discharge from the nose
and into the throat wassomething awful.
My head ached almost. continually, and
I never got a good night 5 sleep. I pro-
cured a. bottle of California Catarrh
Cure at. Plaisted’s drug store, South
Norwalk. It has given me more relief
than I have had for years; my head is
very much improved and I can now
sleep all night. It is certainly a great
reliever anbd I am glad to recommend
it. Nothing among all the things I tried
before helped me one quarter as much
in months, as C. C. C. has in a few
weeks.
You don’t have to wait to find out if
it. will help you for it relieves at once.
To avoid Hay Fever in its season, use
C. C. C. It is a sure reliever of this
and all mucous diseases. Use it to
break up your colds, and to prevent
colds "hanging on.” Price, 50 cents;
three times as much for one dollar.
AMATEUR TRAIN ROBBBRS.
Alleged Highwaymen \Vound a “VVauder-
ing \Villie" and 'Ihen Run Away.
~ Ripon, Cal, Sept.10.—The south bound
express train from San Francisco to
Los Angeles was stopped here 20 min-
utes by a crude attempt at robbery.
Near Marrano, five miles from here,
ties had been piled on the track and
the wood ignited. The train slowed up
as it approached the burning pile, and
two men who were lurking behind the
fence on the side of the track fired aim-
lessly toward the train. One of the
charges of bucks-hot entered the hip of
a tramp who was stealing a ride on the
top of one of the cars.
The attempted robbery was not un-
expected, the ties having been piled on
the track in a. similar manner a few
nights ago. Anticipating a renewal of
the attempt, Sheriff Cunningham had
placed two deputies on the train, one
of whom was riding in the cab. As
soon as the train stopped the deputy
leaped from the cab and the robbers
fled toward the San Joaquin river, eight
or ten miles distant, without making
any further effort to loot the train.
Deputy Sheriffs Black and Wall could
not get near enough to the robbers to
open fire on them, and, the track being
uninjured, the train proceeded to this
station, where the deputies took a trail
to try and capture the robbers. It is
reported here that the deputies have
arrested a man under suspicion of be-
ing a member of the gang and taken
him with them by team to Stockton.
The injured tramp will probably re—
cover. "
