A YIRULENT TYPE OF TYPHUS
That 1'ay Epeedilj Fpread and Eecome a
Plague Is Now
4XX0YIXGXEWI0EK HEALTH OFFICERS
rorrciAi. TELrcnxM to tiie dispatch. i
Xrw York, Feb. 11. On January SO the
steamship Mossilia, of the Fabre line,
landed at this port 717 immigrants, Italians
and Rusian Hebrews. The 450 Italians
were taken aboard at Naples. The 207
Russian Hebrews had gathered at Odessa
from all parts of Southern Russia, and had
arrived here after a long voyage of unusual
roughness.
These Sucsian Hebrews were divided im
mediately among the 17 lodging houses pro
vided by the United Hebrew Charities As
sociation. To-day the Board of Health
found that an epidemic of typhus fever,
known under a dozen names as one of the
most terrible levers that can visit the human
body, and communicating itself y conta
gion as well a bv infection, was raging
among them. Fifty-seven of them, already
down with typhus in its marked symptoms.
hae been taken to the hospital on North
Brother Inland, and the Board of Health is
doing all iu its power to stay the further
spiead of the disc.ie. It is" proable that
pre entive measures, are already too late,
and that itUnowaquestiouhowtarthose in
fected for at least ten days have spread the
lever among their friends, whom they h;v e
been isiting in the crowded tenements of
the lower East Side.
1 he riitcue II Foothold.
For several weeks now typhus fever, un
der the name of famine or hunger fever, has
been spreading in Odessa and in the famine
stricken provinces from winch the Hebrews
have been fleeing to Odessa. Stories of
sufferings and the deaths it has caused have
been coming here over the cables. Xowitlias
defied the Uirilance ol the health
omcers who guaid this port. It ha entered
that part of the city iuot exposed to dan
ger, and lor ten days it has been emanating
Irom at leavt 14 centers discovered and at
tacked by the Hoard of Health to-night
Dr. Cyrus Edson, Chief Inspector of the
Health "Department, was notified at 10:30
o'clock this morning by Dr. Dann that
typhus had made its appearance at 42 East
Twelfth stieet, and from that hour until
midnight the entire force of the Health De
partment was needed to make examinations
and transport the patients lroin the lodging
homes to North Brothers Island.
Dr. Edson and Dr. Dillinsham had con
siderable experience with typhus feer
when it broke out in this city in 1880, and
they made a personal examination ot the
sick" people at 42 East Twellth street.
There was no doubt about its being
trphus feer. Fortunately for the
Health Department, all these Russian He
brews hae since their arrival here been the
charges ot the United Hebrew Charities
Association None of them has been sent
nest, and they have lived in these lodging
nouses to nhich they were assigned.
Prompt Measures Kightly Taken.
There werelo cav?s of genuine typhus at
42 East Tnellth street Dr. Edson sent
orders to North Brothers Island to prepare
the pavilions there for a larje number of
patient and then with the aid of his staft'
he inspected difierent lodging houses where
the Hebrews of this particular ship load
were living.
In eight of them were found cases of
typhus In almost every case tne inspector
found the patients with their heads tied up
in wet towels and suffering from vioU nt
headache. Their temperatures ranged from
104 to 106, and some were delirious.
Before 'J o'clock to-night every one of the
Hebrew immigrants who came on the Mas
silla had been examined and either sent to
the hospital or quarantined.
President Henry Rice, of the United
Hebrew Charities Association, was in
structed bv Dr. Edson not to discharge any
of these Rusiau Hebrews who arrived on
the Massilia, and are now under his charge,
until lie shall receive permission Irom the
Health Department Dr. Edson thinks
that probably very tew people have been in
fected with tj phus by these Russian
Hebrews.
The Disease Is Hrtl to Handle
Dr. Euson did not know to-night what
had become of the Italians who came to this
port with the Hebrews on the Massilia.
They liae scattered. They lived aboard
ship apart from the Hebrews, and as typhus
ha'deieloped so long niter the immigrants
were landed, he thinks that perhaps the
Italians escaped the infection.
Dr. Edson said to-niht: ' This is the
worst outbreak of a contagions disease that
we lme had in New York for many years.
I would rather handle four times as many
cases of smallpox. Typhus is malignant
and very coutagious. The mortality is
high, and probably a large percentage
of tj phus sufferers who are now on the
island will die. They all had strongly de
veloped symptoms of typhus. I think that
we now have the disease well guarded, but,
of course, I cannot tell hovr many others
have been exposed to it."
tt'CALL BOUND TO BOSS.
Ho 1 Elected Fresirtmt of the Keiv York
Life tiimI Absolute Dictator.
Nkw Yoi:k, Feb. 11. The managers and
general agents of the New York Life In
Furance Company met at the office of the
company to-day. A meeting ot the man
agers and agents wai held subsequent to the
meeting1 of the directors Wednesday even
ing, at which time a committee wjs ap
pointed to recommend what steps, if any,
they ought to take. The report ot the com
mittee, it Mas learned, was favorable to
John A. McCall. It wa-. said that Mr.
McCall had notified the directors that he
could not accept the Presidency unless ex
President Beers ceases to have any connec
tion with the management, and he also
makes a condition that he be presented with
the resignation ot all the present directors
of the company. This is said to mean that
Mr. MtCall is determined to be boss of the
situation.
It was learned later that a subsequentand
second session was held, at which it soon be
came manifest that all opposition to Mr.
McCall had disappeared, and that his elec
tion to-morrow is practically a foregone
conclusion. This being the feeling of the
meeting, "William H. Appletou, heretofore
a strong supporter ot Mr. Beers, moved
that Mr. McCall be the unanimous choice of
the meeting lor the Presidency of the New
York Life Insurance Company. The vote
was unanimous.
NEW YORK KOI FOE HAEE1S0IT.
Considered Easy W ork to Get State Dele
gation Against Him.
Washikotox, Eeb. 11. Special It
begins to look as if positions would be re
versed between the Republican and Demo
cratic parties, so far as New York is con
cerned. The Republican delegation from
New York to the National Convention may
be able to get what it wants if it .commands
72 delegates solid against Harrison. Prom
inent New York Republicans here, repre
senting all the factious ol the party, agree
that it will not be hard work to get a dele
gation adverse to the President. In this
policy Piatt, Warner Miller and other tac
tions supposed to loilow Congressman Bel
den coula be united. If these 72 men insist
that Harrison cannot carry New York,
while some other candidate can, the con
vention is very likely to listen to them.
On the othe'r hand the New York Demo
crats are not likely to hav e their way. The
split ,in the party in the Empire State will
rob them of the influence to which they are
entitled. Unless the party can be united,
which seems highly improbable at present,
a Western man will be nominated and New
York completely ignored. Even if Gov
ernor Flower should be nominated it would
not be a victory for the New York delega
tion. If it should be Gorman, Tammany
might do some crowin?, for he is the real
choice of that organization. And speaking
of Governor Flower as a candidate, he has
been talked of a great deal here since the
publication of the letter of Senator Vest
True, there are not a few who cry "rats"
when they hear this talk.
THE ISISH QUESTION OK DECK.
Doth Lords and Commons Discuss That
1'Iihso of the Queen' Speech.
Loxdox, Feb. 1L In the House of
Commons to-day Joseph Chamberlain, leader
of the Liberal Unionists, in resuming the
debate on the address in reply to the Queen's
speech, twitted the opposition with still
not knowing what home rule scheme
Mr. Gladstone intended to submit
Mr. Morley replied that the Liberals
knew that" whatever Mr. Balfour's pro
posals were, they were only a stepping
6toile to a larger and safer measure. The
time would soon come to pass upon the con
duct of certain members calling themselves
Liberal while denouncing Liberal princi
ples. Cheers. John E. Redmond, in
proposing; an amendment for the release of
treason prisoners, repudiated any sympathy
with dynamiters. He vindicated the inno
cence of Daly and Egan.
In the Ho'tse of Lords to-day the Marquis
of Londonderry asked whether it was true
that John Dillon, William O'Brien and
Timothy Healy, all members of the House
of Commons had at their own request been
accorded police protection. Earl Cadogan
replied that police protection had been ac
corded to them, but further than that he
declined to sav anything. The Marquis
of Londonderry remiuded the House that
"these persors" only recently went about
posing as idols of the Irish people. They had
denounced the executive power in the most
violent language for having them shadowed,
but now they were extremely glad to avail
themselves of shadowing tor their own pro
tection. The Marquis further said that pro
tection had been conceded to them because
two raging factions existed in Ireland who
were breafcine each other's heads. It was
to the interest of Unionists to let English
people understand the Irish parties, in
order that they might realize how absurd
and dangerous it would be to grant the
Irish any measure of home rule that would
place the loyal minority at the tender mer
cies of such men.
BAEON HIESCH AH IHSHGEANI.
He Discalics Himself, Trayels Steerage, and
Traps His Commissioners.
Sax Fkaxcisco, Feb. 11. Special.
Jacob Danziger, a large wheat dealer of
Berlin, now here, is authority for
a queer story about Baron Hirsch.
He says Hirsch recently discov
ered that his agents in New
York were not properly managing the
fund of ?10,000 per month devoted to
Hebrew immierants arriving in New York.
Danziger says:
The baron learned that the commissioners
he had appointed gave no help to immi
grants, hut pocketed most of the money
set asido for this benevolent pui
pose. The baton decided to look
up the truth of charges by
pioceedin? to Sew York liimielf. The bet
ter to tet at the bottom facts lie diseuised
lumselfasa poor Hebie wand took steerage
p-isage across the Atlantic. I was
on the same steamer with him,
but realizing that he must have
had some Important object to achieve, I did
not recosnize him by w ord or look. When
New Yoik was i cached lie went
into the dingv pens of Castle Garden
along with "Ihe remninder of the
poor Hebrew etiles. Pretty soon the
Commissioners came down and the Baron
bcgsd of one of them a little assistance.
Assistance was brusquely reiused, and ho
was tin own aside by the very
men who were handling his money.
After observing their liaughty.unscrupulons
behavior foi a lew days, the Baron quietly
and secretly had them removed from their
positions, and otlreisnppointed. lie told me
he Intended to have them Diosccuted before
ictnining to Europe, He has made the
neceary preliminary arrangements to this
end with" the lawj era.
CONSEEVATIVZS GAIN GHOUND.
They Will Go to the ext Canadian House
of Commons Much Stronjer.
Toronto, Okt., Feb. 11. Special
Seven bye-elections were held in C.1 ' i
to-day, in the constituencies
members elected at the general elec
tion in March last were since
unseated for corrupt practices. The Con
servative administration gained two seats
by these elections to-day, and the proba
bility is that they will go back to the House
ot Commons on February 26 considerably
stroneer than last session.
Two Conservatives were re-elected in
Halifax on reduced majorities. In Ontario,
Peel county re-elected a Liberal and
South Victoria and East Middlesex
re-elected Conservatives, while in East
Bruce and North Victoria, where Liberals
were elected in March by majorities of 140
and 200, respectively, the Conservatives to
day carried the seats by small majorities.
THEEE ABE FABMS OUT WEST.
A Scandal That Has Proceeded Farther
Than One Nearer Home.
IiNDiANAroLis, Feb. 1L Special It
has been rnmored lor weeks that attempts
had been made to bribe members
or the State Board of Agricul
ture. At jesterday's meeting it was
charged that Mr. Lockhart, the member
from Waterloo, had the name of the briber,
and the contract that was made with him in
relation to buying a certain farm for a new
State lair site.
"On January 4 T met a man at the Deni
son; he said he would like to see the Miller
farm selected. I asked him what there
could be in it for me. He answered:
There is 51,000 in it for vou and ?300
for me. ' He took 1,000 from his pocket and
placed it on the table. I did not touch it,
but wanted an understanding in writing. I
ordered the stakeholder to pay the money
back to the party."
WAESING WOELD'B FAIR BOARDS.
They Will Meet Again To-Day and Try to
Tatch Up a Peaoa.
Chicago, Feb. 1L All the differences
between the National Board of Control and
the Chicago directors of the World's Fair
was discussed at a joint meeting to-day.
The discussion took a violent turn with in
cidental personalities, and ended in the
passage of a resolution providing for a com
mittee of six three from each board to see
if some agreement can be reached. The
committee is to be named to-morrow and
make its report the next day.
The main question at issue is as to which
boaid shnll control transportation. The
subject of charging an admission fee for en
trance to the dedication ceremony is ex
pected to come np to-morrow.
THE CUETIS TEIAL HALF DONE

JSe Taken Kelt Week.
San Fkaxcisco, Feb. 11. In the Curtis
trial to-day, Philip Allen, Deputy Coroner,
September 11, testified to the find
ing of a pistol and a club on Police
man Grant's body. The hammer of
the pistol was resting on an empty cham
ber. All the other chambers were loaded.
With the exception of one witness, who is
ill, the prosecution's testimony is com
plete. The defense asked for a continuance ol the
case until Monday, which was granted.

GROWTH OF THE LIST.
Clerk McGunnigle Received 230
License Applications Yesterday,
TE0M ALL PARTS OP THE COUNTY.
A Very Evident Tecreasein (he Kumber of
Would-Be Wholesalers.
ADDITIONAL NAMES AND LOCATIONS
The rush of applications for liquor licenses
continued yesterday, and 230 were filed in
the Clerk" of Courts' office. This makes a
total of 1,245 filed up to date. Several ap
plicants who came late were exceedingly
anxious that they should get their papers
filed yesterday. They were superstitious
and afraid to watt until to-day, because it is
Friday, or until to-morrow, because it will
be the 13th. Mr. McGunnigle took pity on
ihem and received their applications,
although the closing hour for the day had
passed.
. The Clerk of Courts thinks the total of
applications this year will fall short of last
year's record by about 150. He expects
fully as many retail applicants, but thinks
the wholesale applications will be compara
tively few. The number filed at this time
warrants this conclusion.
The information that a number of the
papers filed for applicants were defective,
given in yesterday's Dispatch, caused
many ot the would-be liquor sellers to come
aiou'rid and examine, their bonds and peti
tions u second time, and many corrections
were found necessary. Among the papers
filed j cstetday several weie found contain
iiiiiio bonds. In the Twentv-ninth waid
list Owen J. McKenna's apolication is for
725 Carson Street, instead of 4725, as stated.

That's What the Three A's Clubhouse
Is Intended to Be. -
WORK TO START WITHOUT DELAY.
Lnllivan Said to Have Signed Articles to
Fight I eter Jlaher.
LOCAL BASEB1LL CLUB GOSSIP
There have been columns aud columns
written first and last about the grand club
house the Allegheny Athletic Association is
going to have, anL all this writing has
caused a general smile; a smile conveying
the idea that there never would be any club
house at all. But the Three A's have re
solved to carry out their intention, and at a
meeting held last night steps were taken of
a more definite kind than have ever been
takep before. The question was simply re
duced to one of dollars and dimes and the
money required to buy the lot and erect the
club house was guaranteed. But to move
in safety more inquiries are.tobemade as
to the probable cost of running the clnb
when the building is erected and furnished.
The meeting last night was held at the
Hotel Schlosser and there was a good at
tendance. The committee previously ap
pointed to select a site for the clubhouse re
ported in favor of purchasing the Arbuckle
property on Seventh street. The lot will
cost $7o,000, and f 70,000 more will be re
onired to build the clubhouse, or a total of
$145,000. The committee reported that'
foO.OOO had been subscribed toward this
total.
, Caused a Sensation.
But quite a sensation was caused when a
communication irom a gentleman was read
stating tlut he would advance all the money
necessary to build and furnish a clubhouse
at 5 per cent, he, of course, holding a mort
gage on the property.
This offer simplified matters considerably,
and then there was some discussion as
to the amount that would be re
quired to htrnish and maintain the
establishment. Nothing like exact figures
could be given. So it was resolved that a
committee of three be appointed to make in
quiries as to the expenses of similar clubs
in the East. The committee will be ap
pointed to-dav and they may visit the lead
ing clubs in New York and Boston.
The property on Seventh street is shaped
like an L. On Seventh street it is 71x120
leet and the L is 40x100. As at present in
tended, the clubhouse will be five stories
high, divided off as follows: The entire
cellar to be given up to a swimming pool;
first floor, cafe, dining and reading ro6ms;
second floor, officers' rooms, private dining
rooms aud a large room for meeting pur
poses; third floor, sleeping rooms and
private dining rooms; fourth floor, tenpin
alleys, shooting galleries and shower baths,
and a big gymnasium on the huh floor.
This latter w'ould, of course, be fittedup
with all the paraphernalia necessary, "and
in addition there will be an elevated run
ning path put in.
' Everybodyinterested in amateur sports
and athletic recreation will be glad of the
prospect of the handsome clubhouse. It
will be one of the'biggest and grandest in
the United States and it certainly will be
built with all possible speed.
luite a Good Scheme,
What is termed the Allegheny Athletic
Association Land Company has also been
iormed and this will give club members a
chance to invest in the stock of the es
tablishment. Altogether the project is an
extraordinary one and the public at large
will most assuredly wih the venture every
success. At present there are about 350
members and it is confidently expected that
when the building is completed the mem
bership will reach 1,000. '

COLLEGE BASEBALL CLUEi
Sleeting To-Day to Organize Them in Sev
eral Western Cities.
Chicago, Feb. 1L Special' An important
meeting of the Western Collego Baseball
League will be held at Milwaukee to-mor-"row.
The results or last year's league vvero
unsatisfactory, affairs remaining at the end
of the season in an unsettled condition.
The provisions against the playing or pro
fessionals arc lamentably weak, and in the
majority or cases have been wiliruliy mis
construed. The Univeisity of Minnesota is
anxious for admision to the league and will
probably send delegates to the meeting.
The probabilities are that one of the clubs
will give place to the men from the Gopher
State. A circuit consisting of Minneapolis,
Madison and Evanston, provided it were
boomed and given economical management,
would be prodnctive of the best tcsults
The meeting of the Western College Foot
ball Leagno will be held at Milwaukee on
Satuidsvy. What colleges will be represented
in the league the coming seon can onlv be
a source of speculation, but the probabilities
me that a change will be made, as Gnnnell
and Minneapolis are both anxious for ad
mission. LOCAL BALL CLUB STOCK
