Fears That the Dreadful Scourge Tvm Spread In Every Direction Reports or Deaths Confirm the Suspicion that Cholera had Seen Brought Into the British Isles. Loxdox, Aug. 29. If all the deaths that are being reported from Asiatic cholera are true, there is no doubt of Great Britain's having a visitation of the dreadful scourge. From Gravesend, Swansea, Glasgow and Dundee, towns in England, Scotland and "Wales, reports come of death from the dis ease, showing that the efforts of the health officials to keep it out of the country before proved fruitless. And now this afternoon comes a report that a person died from Asiatic cholera at Boltbn, the large manu facturing town, which is 12 miles north west of Manchester. The place is one of the principal seats of English cotton manu facture and thousands of mill operatives lire there. The permission given by the health offi cials at Middlesborough for the landing of the crew of the steamer Gerona from Ham burg promises to have most serious results. As announced in these dispatches the vessel was placed in quarantine after one of its crew had been attacked by cholera, but in the meantime a number of the ship's com pany had departed for their homes. Six of them went to Dundee, where they reside, while another ot the crew went to Aber deen. Among those who went to Dundee was Mr. "Walker, the Engineer of the Gerona. Shut the Door Too Xiate. Shortly after his arrival there he was taken sick and died in a few hours. The physician who attended him says there is no doubt that his death was due to cholera. "When it became known that "Walker was dead, the greatest excitement prevailed in Dundee, and also in Aberdeen, where the seventh member of the crew had gone ashore. Steps were at once taken by the health officials to isolate the remainder of the crew in Dundee and the man in Aber deen, until all danger of their spreading "contagion is passed. The residents of both places, however, believe that the men have been allowed to go about the towns long enough to Rpread the disease, if they carried the infection, and there is widespread anxiety prevailm; in every quarter of the ttfwns. An extraordinary watch will be kept in both places for the first appearance of choleric disorders. A sailor arrived at Swansea to-day from Cork. He was found to be suffering from cholera and was immediately removed to hospital. The appecrance of the disease in Swansea awakened the port authorities to the responsibilities of their position, and a meeting was summoned to decide upon measures for the prevention of any further invasion. x Gravesend People In Dancer. A steamer belopging to the same company as the Portia has been in quarantine at Cuxhaven, on the Elbe, C8 miles northwest of Hamburg, for a week owing to the fact that Two deaths from cholera occurred on beard of her. This steamer is expected to arrive at Gravesend to-night with a large number of poor emigrants. The inhabi tants of Gravesend are awaiting her arrival "YEAR ' PirTSBTJEQ TUESDAY. AUGUST 30. 1892-TWELVE PAGES. ''ra5 THREE CENTS. 1 with much apprehension. It is "feared that should an outbreak -of the disease occur at Gravesend it would have grave results. Gravesend is only 20 miles from London and is a favorite place of holiday resort Immense crowds of excursionists from Lou don visit the place and to their.trade much of Gravesend's prosperity is due. The es tablishment of a cholera hospital near the town and the constant arrival of immigrant irom inrectea ports will tend to drive their trade away. The effect of the reports of the death of the three of the steamer Gerona passengers from cholera was discernaible yesterday in a great falling off in the "ninal number of Sunday excursionists. Mo More Immigrants From Hamburg. But the better class of the inhabitants of the town do not regard this as an unmiti gated loss. "What they fear is that, if the disease breaks out in Gravesend, it will be an impossible task to fight it The sanitary system of the tpwn is antiquated and will prove an excellent factor in spreading the disease. The excitement in the town, how ever, was somewhat allayed this afternoon by announcement that the company which convers most of the aliens to Gravesend, had decided to cease its passenger traffic from Hamburg until the cholera epidemic iu that city comes to an end. The Norwegian bark Seladon, Captain! Thorsen, from Mobile July 5, arrived at Shields to-day. As she was entering the harbor it was seen that she was flying a yel low flag, meaning that she had sickness on board. She was at once boarded by medical officers, who found two of her crew ill. The sick men were closely examined, and the officials declared that they were not suffer ing from cholera. CHOLERA ON THE WAY. 4 The State Department 'Warned of Its lireaklnc Out at Glasgow Among Bus elans Dound for America The Au thorities Not Alarmed, Because They Are Fully Prepared. "Washington; Aug. 2a The following dispatch was received, to-day at, the State Department from the United States Consul at Glasgow: Cholera outbreak here among Bussian emigrants for America. The Consul 'at. Liverpool cabled as fol lows: Cholera Imminent. Strongly urge medical inspection of Immigrants under consular directions, with official disinfection. Sis patch follows. "The Department has already taken the action recommended by the, Consul at Liverpool," said Acting Secretary Spauld ing, of the Treasury Department, to-day. "The news of the Department's action has not probably reached the Consul." The Acting Secretary, continning, said he believed every precautionary measure that could bo taken to prevent the admission of cholera into the United States had been taken.

This report, the Minister says further, makes it clear that none of the LFrench ports have shown, and do not now show, a single case oi cnoiera, not even a suspicious case. The report to the committee is dated Au gust 8. It says, in part, that "the use of the Seine water appears to have been the sole condition of the formation of the cen ters of infection, and this explains the small degree of expansion, or rather the non-ex-pausion of the epidemic. Having its origin in the domain of the Seine water, it remained there and formed no -center of in fection outside ot this domain, although the conditions for importation were not want ing in tne case ot more tnan one commune in the immediate neighborhood or among those distant irom the great centers of in fection. A number of cases and some deaths were reported at Paris. "We saw the majority of those attacked, and made a close examination into their disease and examined their discharges. "We may absolutely as sert tbat not a genuine case arose in Paris." NOT A MILD EPIDEMIC. The Best Anthorities Say the Disease Is Present In Its Worst Form. London, Aug. 29. The Berlin corre spondent of the Times says: "Since Friday the names of all travelers, bound hither from infected places, have been telegraphed here in advance to facilitate the work of in spection on their arrival: Traffic from here to Hamburg is extraordinarily small but from Hamburg here it is very heavy." The h'orth German QazetU urges the adoption of an international agreement for concerted action against cholera. The Times St Petersburg correspondent says: "The average daily cholera record here is 100 new cases and 20 deaths. It is the greatest mistake to say that the epi demic is a mild one. The best authorities affirm the contrary. In some cases the vic tims succumb in two or three hours. The bodies of victims frequently exhibit strong muscular movements an Hour after death, thus proving the severity of the attack. The true proportion of deaths is not very high, but the disease is of extreme viru lence." PROTECTING THE FRONTIER. France Will Establish Sanitary Stations In All Her Seaports. ' Paris. Aug. 29. The Minister of the In terior, who returns to Paris to-morrow, will then sign an order (embodying advice from the Board of Health) for the estab lishment of a sanitary cordon alontf the Eastern frontier, from Dunkirk to Delie, and for the 'maintenance of sanitary sta tions in all the seaports of France. It is apparent that sufficient medical assistance will soon be available. The British and American Consuls at H,avre do not regard the situation as alarm ing. As a matter of precaution the Ameri can Consul appointed a committee of physi cians to inspect all outgoing Atlantic steamers. The Minister of the Interior has ordered every possible facility to be ex tended to the foreign Consuls in the matter of the abode and extent of the disease and its progress.

In Two Days New Cases In Altona and Other Towns. Hamburg, A.ug. 29. The official cholera statistics place the number of new cases of the disease reported on Saturday at 435 and the number of deaths at 149. On Sunday and np to noog to-day 148 new cases "and 72 deaths were reported. ' The disease appears to be abating in sev eral quarters of the-city. There was much less danger from ambulances during the night The city yesterday was Btrikingly quiet There was little traffic on the streets and concert gardens, which' are usually crowded to their fullest capacity on Sun days, were completely deserted. So small has become the traffic on the tramways that that the companies are restricting their service. In Altona, 77 new cases of cholera and 33 deaths from the disease were reported from noon Saturday up to noon to-day. Owing to the outbreak of the disease in the prison, minor'oflenders to the number of 150 have been released. The decrease' of the disease in Hamburg and Altona has been, mpst noticeable since midnight last night Isolated cases have been reported from Schiffbeck, Bergedorf, Hamburg, Elmshorn and Utersen. At Wandsebecfc, three miles northeast of Hamburg, a favor ite summer resort of the merchants of the city, there were nine cases of the disease and five deaths up to Saturday evening. 1 EVERY TOWN AFFECTED.

The official cholera returns from all infected districts show that on Friday 4,767 new cases and 2,324 deaths were reported. In St Peters burg yesterday 125 new cases were reported, while tne deaths numbered 25. "At Cron-, stadt 3 cases and 1 death were reported. Cholera has reached Merv, in Turkestan, and a panicprevails among the inhabitants, particularly the Armenian merchants, who wanted to close their shops immediately they became aware of the presence of dis ease. The Governor, however, objected to this course, and threatened to expel the merchants from the country if they did not continue business. Shonld the Armenians be allowed to close their shops, it would cause great distress. A dispatch from Vladikavkas, capital of the Government of Torek, cays that even town and village in the Government is affected with cholera. The Government extends from the crest of Caucasus north west to the Caspian sea, and contains over 23,000 square miles. The population is over 485,000 souls. BERLINERS' FEARS ALLAYED.

TTT S r rrtm Restores Confidence, BEBX.C?, Ang. 29.-a.The fulfillment of the promise made by the authorities of this city, of publicly announcing the first case of Asiatio cholera occurring here,has greatly allayed the public inquietude arising from the exaggerated reports in regard to the disease. Fifteen cases of cholera were re ported to-night but none of these were of Asiatic type. In the districts of the city inhabited by working people, energetic measures are be ing taken to keep them cleansed and disin fected. Great complaints are being' made as to the laxity of the supervision exercised over travelers arriving here from Hamburg. Many Hamburgers write to the papers that they had been allowed to leave the railway station nt Berlin without having to undergo the least inspection. 1 Prof. Koch has issued a warning against the over watering of the streets. The hu midity, he claims, favors the spread of bacilli, and the rapid consumption of water prevents effective filtration at the water works. IT HAS HOT TOUCHED HAVANA. Th'e Beport That the Sconrge I There Is Emphatically Denied. 'Havana, Aug. 29. The report which was put into circulation to the effect that cholera had appeared in Havana is untrue.

The heeters' helpers, employed at the roll ing mills here, have decided to strike if the policy is carried out by the manufacturers of reducing their wages 10 per cent, as they believe now will be done at one of the mills. The helpers were notified that their wages would be reduced 10 per cent at that mill, and this resulted in a mass meeting being called df all the helpers, at which it was unanimously decided to resist any reduction iu their wages. The helpers assert that when the confer ence scale was made up there was nothing in it providing that the wages of heaters helpers should be reduced, and they pro pose to resist any action being taken in this direction. The pay day of some of the mllU occurs next Saturday,, and if there is any decrease in their wages a general tie-up is likely to occur at all. the mills. IT DID HOT PAY DIVIDENDS.

I EVERY, EFFORT -.AT Will Be Hade to Keep the Dreaded Cholera From Getting a Foothold IN THI&GBEAT REPUBLIC. Health Officer Jenkins Relied to'Fulfiil His Duty. Upon New Quarantine Regulations Made Public All Vessels From Cholera Infected Ports to Be Detained From Two to Five Days Some Modifica tions May Be Found Necessary A Very Busy Day at Quarantine Views About a Qholera Hospital Ar rival of Several Suspects -7- Some Big Steamers to Be Looked After Carefully. SriCIAl, TELBOIU1I TO THIS DISPATcn.l - New York, Aug. 29. The Quarantine Commissioners and the Board of Health are making every effort to be prepared for chol era when it arrives. Everyone is confident that Health Officer1 Jenkins is doing all that man can do to make the quarantine system here as perfect as possible, and it might be said that he knows co rest night or day. Every fresh alarm that comes, by cable or otherwise, is the signal for still stronger action in order to make assurance doubly sure. Dr. Jenkins early in the day issued the following order to the representatives in this city of the different shipping lines: All vessels from cholera-infectod ports or carrying steerago passengers from infected localities will be subjeoted to qnarantlno of detention irom two to five days. Passengors and their baegage will be transferred to Hoffman Island, where they -ill receive a bath, while basgage and clothing are disin fected by steam. Immediately after snoh transfer, steerage and cargo will be disin tected. The passengers will ho then re turned to the vessel, whleh, in the absenoe of any development of suspicious cases, will he allowed to proceed to her dock. Authority of the Health Officer. This regulation is in accordance with a, tele gram sent to the Secretary of the Treas ury requesting that the same regulations at the port ot departure be enforced under the direction of the United States Consul. If the health officer is satisfied upon investi gation that such regulations have been car ried out at such ports in regard to emi grants, the above regulations will be modi-, fieci. The above regulations will entail on this department an enormous amount of labor, but by the co-operation of the steamship companies it will be accomplished. Rep resentatives from the 13 transatlantic lines were invited to meet Dr. Jenkins to-day for a conference in reference to this order. Dr. Jenkins explained the necessity for the ,pjrder.-and convinced vcyone that such a course wasemaaffectuythe 'gravltyof-tbo situation. AUladinitted the force of his arguments, but it is s'aid tbat some of the azents did so with apparent unwillingness. ,"I think the State Board of Health ought to act now, and I believe it will act," Dr. Jenkins continued. "It would be well if orders were issued to the other seaboard cities in the State and along the lakes to make the quarantine as rigid as it is in New York. No one can tell how cholera may, find its way into this city. . Every possible avenue should be guarded." ,, A Very Busy Day at Quarantine. Dr. Jenkins was asked about the choice of a hospital for the cholera patients should any of them come to New York. He said it was a matter for the health board to attend to. In case' it came by sea those infected by the disease might be kept in a hospital, ship or Bent to Swinburne island. "As to the emigrant hospital," he con tinued, "It is out ot the question, as it is being used as a hospital for insane patients, I understand. There is the hospital ship Samuel D. Carletoo, which would hold from 250 to 300 patients. I have no doubt the Board of Health will make suitable pro vision for New York." It was a bnsv dav at quarantine to-day and for the next tew days Dr.-Jenkins and his assistants will have their hands full ex amining iucoming steamers, as a number of trans-Atlantic liners are due to-morrow, "Wednesday and Thursday. The steamship Arizona, from Liverpool, the America, from Hamburg, and the Piequa, from Med iterranean ports, were overhauled in the forenoon by Dr. Jenkins and his assistants, Drs. Tallmadge and Sanborn. The Arizona arrived after sun down the day before, too late for inspection that day. As she carried some passengers from Russia great auxietv was felt lest she shouid have cholera patients on board, and it took several hours to satisfy iDr. Jenkins that she could be safely passed, AH the Passengers Well. The passengers were in exceptionally good health, and they were very much averse to being examined and to having their baggage cooked by steam. The bag gage was disinfected thoroughly, and the vessel received a clear bill ot health. The inspection of the America was longer that of the Arizona. She carried 100 pas sengers less than the Arizona, but she sailed from Bremen on August 17, the day before cholera was discovered in Hamburg. It took several hours aud several visits to the ship before Dr. Jenkins made up' his mind to give the ship a clear bill of health. The Eed Star ,liner Friesland and the steamer Polynesia, of the Hamburg-American line, are expected here to-morrow. The Polynesia is a passenger steamer, and she carries principally immigrants. The Friesland will be the ; first vessel to arrive here from Europe since the outbreak of cholera in Ant werp. Mr. "Wright, of the Gorman line, and H. Maitland Kersey, of the "White Star line, said yesterday' that their lines had stopped .taking continental pas sengers, but were ttnly taking British and Scandinavian passengers. J. Ter Kuile, of the Fabre line, said that his company had given orders in Europe to refuse all Rus sians. Fumigation to Be Attended To. Chief Clerk Healey, of the passenger de partment 01 tne Allan-state line, said, with reference to the cable report that cholera had appeared ' in Dundee, Scotland: "Our ships sail from Glasgow, and I have n6 doubt the matter of fumigation will be attended to'there. Our reports will be fully alive to the situation, we have received no-cable dispatches here, as this is not our head office." Over 100 complaints were received dur ing the day of tenements in a filthy condi tion. Orders were issued that they should be cleaned at once. About twenty arrests of persons who sold impure milk were made. A quantity of decayed fruit and vegetables was seized before nightfall. A communication from Postmaster Van Cott was sent to the Health Department, stating that it would be well to have the mail disinfected.

ONE DANGER TO. AVOID. Lax Inspection Feared at Some Quaran tine Stations State Rivalry May Work Against a Strict Enforcement of Na tional Orders A Supervision to Be In stituted. Columbus, O., Aug. 29 jxrial. Sec tetarylProbst, of the State Board of Health, has returned from the Indianapolis meeting of the Executive Committee of the national conference of boards of health, of whioh he is a member, where the question of a prob able visitation of the cholera epidemic was considered. Dr. Probst is of the opinion that heroic measures should be adopted to keep the disease out of the country, and says the commission appointed to inspect the quarantine stations will go to work on "Wednesday. . This commission consists of Drs. H. B. Baker, of Michigan; J. N. McCormick, of Kentucky; Irving A. Watson, ol New Hampshire; Joseph Holt, of Louisiana; J. B, Lane, pf, California; P. H. Brice, of 'Ontario, an.dD. JR. Orranans, of Mexico. ICbe eommissloa.wiU meet at -Torpnto, and, make its first inspection at Montreal. Tho condition of the c'everal stations will 'be made pubilo at once, as the commission deems this course more expedient than to wait until the work is completed. They will be engaged for several weeks. , It is not expected that the members from California and Mexico will be able to ac company the commission on its tour of in spection, but Dr. Probst, as secretary of the national conference, to-day mailed them an outline of the work.as agreed upon at the recent meeting at Indianapolis,' with the request that the California member in spect stations on the Pacifio coast, and the Mexican member those on the coast of Mexico. In this connection Dr. Probst calls atten tion to the fact that the quarantine stations are under control of and managed by local or State authorities. There are some fears that the rivalry between the different ports may result in" lax inspection'of incoming vessels, with a view of drawing traffic from one port to another. SHE SAILED RIGHT IN. So Attempt Made to Stop an Immigrant Steamrr at Philadelphia She landed at the Lazaretto and Had No Suspicious Cases or sickness on Board. Philadelphia, Aug. 29. The steam ship British Princess, from Liverpool for this port, with 600 passengers aboard, 200 of whom are immigrants from Hamburg, was not boarded at the Delaware breakwater this morning by United States officials, as had been intended, but passed up the bay without stopping. The reason for the fail ure to examine her is not known, but as a fresh breeze is reported, it is believed to be, due to the poor facilities afforded the Gov ernment physicians for boarding purposes, their, boat 'being considered unsafe 4a a rough sea. JThe steamer'was stoDDed at the lazaretto shortly before 2 o'clock this afternoon by the Health Inspectors of this 'port and her surgeon reported everybody welL A pre liminary examination revealed 'no suspi cious cases of -sickness on the ship, which' sailed from Liverpool August 17, stopping at Queenstown, irom which port she ob tained a clear bill of health. The work of landing the baggacte of her passengers was begun at once, and both are now nndergoing a through fumigation. The steamerwill be detained at least until to morrow noon, when the Board of Health will meet and decide as to the time of her release. Meanwhile1 the passengers will be placed under observance. ,The Board of Health to-day decided that it had no authority to prohibit the landing of rags from cholera portB, as requested by Health Utiicer Veale. It decided, however, that the cargo from Hamburg and Havre stopped by the United States authorities last week "should remain in storage in the city for the present. -To-morrow a revenue cutter will be stationed at the Delaware breakwater for the use of Government in spectors, who will board every inbound vessel and detain any ship infected with cholera.

MoAIeer Wins at the Primaries In Phila delphia Tow Also Claims a Victory Double Conventions Sure to Be Held and Blval .Candidates Bun for Both Positions. Philadelphia, Aug. 29. The Demo cratic primaries to elect delegates to the Legislative, Senatorial and the Third Con gressional district conventions were held to-night. Only in the Congressional dis trict and the Seventeenth Representative district were there contests of any kind. The fight in the Congressional district has been waged between Congressman William MoAIeer and the regular Democrat ma chine. The machine leaders have opposed Congressman McAleer. Both sides have made a sharp canvass, but Congressman Mc Aleer undoubtedly carried the district to- nignt oy a sate majority. At the Congres sional Convention on Thursday, however, It is thought the McAleer delegates will be thrown out and the Ker delegates "seated. .In such an event Congressman McAleer will probaly hold a convention ol his own, and go before the people with the claim that he is the regular nominee. In the Seventeenth Representative dis trict BepresentatiVe John H. Tow occupies the same position in relation to the county committee as Congressman McAleer. Ho was opposed by the committee with Samuel D. Dailey and to-night both parties are- claiming a victory. "Whatever the out come. Tow's delegates will probably meet the same fate In the Representative conven tion, to-morrow, as Congressman McAleer's will meet on Thursday. The result will be the same Tow holding a convention of his own and running in opposition to Dailey. HARRY KERNELL A WRECK. He Attempts to Do a Turn nt Tony Pastor4 and Breaks. Down Pitiably Htsned Oil tho Stage Despite the Kindly Offloes or Friend.. New York, Aug. 2a Special' An eager and curiosity-controlled audience filled Tony Pastor's theater, to-night. The once favorite Celtic comedian, Harry Ker nell, whose mind has been unbalanced, ac cording to all reports of late, was waited for anxiously to make his appearance. He ambled forth in his customary shiftless way, but what a change. There he stood, a more pitiable picture than the sadly stricken Scanlan, the poor, helpless Hart, the maddened McCullough, or any other of the long list of demented entertainers. He told a limp story or two, gave out a few tame jokes, and then attempted to spin a yarn in his former inimitable way about an' old Irish woman attending a Methodist Church. The result was saddening. He got so far as the entering ot the edifice. Then he stopped, looked pleadingly at the right stage entrance, and in a weak voice gulped out: "Weil, he's ljke all Irishmen, they are supposed to go crazy some time." A hiss, loud and long, went up, drowning the kindlv cheers of Tils friends. Harry Kernell's career had found a more " bitter finale than that ol any of his predecessors among the stage sufferers. ROUTED THE REBELS. The Sultnn's Troops Cnt Off lh" Heads of the Slain for n Remuneration. Tangier, Aug. 29.
