TEN NEW CASES, Bat No Deaths at New Tork Quarantine Several of the Normannia's Crew Are Stricken Depew Not Allowed to Get Off Dancing on Board. New York, Sept 7. Special. For the erst time since last Saturday cholera claimed no victims in the lower bay to-day, and all oi the patients at Swinburne Island, of whom there are now about 24, -were hold ing their own. Ten new cases of the disease developed aboard the Normannia and the Bngio, how ever, and the new pdtients were removed to Swinburne Island as soon as a quarantine tug could be obtained. The scourge is spreading rapidly among the crew of the Normannia. Eight of to day's new patients were members of the Normannia's crew, and the other two were steerage passengers on the Bugia. This is to-day's record of new cases: Normannia Max Gehrman, 21 years old; Stanislaus Knans, 26 years old; Riobard richer, 21 years old; Franz Gent, 31 years old; Julius Folnrz, 30 years old; Wilbelm Bennenbeg, SO years old; Carl Borandt, 21 years old. Bugia Catherine Tesarowa, 23 years old; Orakle Knperan, 23 years old. The nurse on Swinburne Island, Ade laide Merries, who was taken ill Monday, was reported as very much better to-night. The surgeons on board the pest ships have been instructed to prepare a history of every case on board since sailing from Hamburg, and the physicians on Hoffman and Swinburne Islands must do the same with all cases which come under their charge. Cold Baths Causing Disorders. There was no delay in removing those of the Normannia's crew who were stricken down. The cholera symptoms broke out a short time after the crew had been returned to the ship from Hofiman Island, where they were thoroughly bathed and disin fected. One of the health officers suggested that the cold bath which the men had to un dergo might be responsible for the severe attacks of drarrheca which were noticed almost simultaneously in the cases of the patients. There was a bigger array of ships than ever in the Narrows to-day, 21 in all riding at anchor at Bunrise. During the day the Darmstadt, the Brilliant, the Persian Mon arch, the Masrachusetts, and the Vene zuela, which had been held since Tuesday, were released, but as many more came in to take their places and crowd the bay off Quarantine. The big Inman liner, City of New York, was at Quarantine at 11 o'clock with no serioks illness among her 1,139 pas sengers. Depew Not Allowed to Get Off. This afternoon Dr. Depew, on the City of New York, sent his compliments to Dr. Jenkins, and regretted that the Health Offi cer had not been able to board the Inman liner in person. This message was received by Dr. Jenkins just as he was about to leave on his daily trip down the bay. He replied by the following message: "Present my compliments to Dr. Depew and my regrets that I must detain-ium and the ship until to-morrow at least" Secretary of the Treasury Foster, whose wile and daughter are on the City of New York, went' alongside the steamship in the Bevenue Cutter Grant and greeted his fam ily from her side. He had a permit from Br. Jenkins to go aboard, but he did not use it and returned to the city. The City of New York will probably be released to morrow, with La Bourgogne, whose passen gers have now been held since Sunday within half a mile of the Staten Island shore. To-morrow the Hamburg boat Scandia, which sailed August 28, is due. She car ries passengers both in the cabin and steer age, and is the last but one of the Hamburg ships which sailed with immigrants aboard. The Bohemia is the last The Wieland, which is dac Saturday, carries no steerage passengers. No Extra Vessel" Can Be round. General Passenger Agent Boos, of the Hamburg American Steamship Company, said to-day that he had a conference with Dr. Jenkins about transferring the cabin passengers of the Normannia to some other vessel. It was found impossible to get any vessel sufficiently large to accommodate the passengers. A reporter from a distance hailed Captain Hebich, of the Normannia, at 1 o'clock this lufV morning,. and was informed that the passen gers were all" very well and enjoying them selves as much as possible under the circum stances. In fact, there was a rousing "bop" on board the steamer, and the sound of merry mnsic was wafted across the bay to the silent -watchers who patrol the waters lu which the pest ships are anchored. (Some fishermen who live down the bay, and are thoroughly disgusted with the reg ulation which prevents them from plying their trade, -even went so far as to take a humorous view of the situation and sailed past the quarantine landing singing the fol lowing lines in high glee: "Cholera germs are in the bay, , We expeot them upto-day, And with Lottie wewill say: 'Ob, ta-ra ra-boom de-ay.'

The Medical Inspec tor has made ah investigation into the case of the farmer's wife who died Monday night at "Whaley Bridge from what is said to have been Asiatic cholera. He declares that death was not caused by cholera. The case of the seaman, Murphy, who, after being discharged from the cholera hospital at Havre, came to London, where he showed suspicions symptoms, caused some appre hension here. He was taken to the London Hospital where the symptons were care fully studied by the physicians. The local Government Board has issued an amendment to the regulations, requiring shipowners, nnder a heavy penalty, to re tain aboard ship all foreign immigrants who are unable to inform the port medical offi cer as to their destination and address. This order practically stops the importation of foreign paupers. The steamer Trave, ot the North German Lloyd Steamship Com pany, irom Bremen, sailed from Southamp ton for New York at 6 O'clock this evening. She has on board 307 passengers in the saloon, but, in accordance with the new regulation of the company, her steerage is empty. The steamer Hermann sailed from Bremerhavcn for New York yesterday alt ernoon. The Hermann has no cabin pas sengers, but has immigrants in the steer age. HEALTH OFFICERS HOPEFUL. Preventive Measures Still Sncceed In Keep ing Ont the Plague. WAsniNGTOir, Sept 7. Acting Secre ary Spaulding said to-day that the measures nstituted to keep cholera out ef this coun try have proved eminently successful so for, and that he saw no reason to apprehend that the dread contagion will obtain a foot hold in this country. The Secretary of State received a telegram this morning from the United States Consul at Bremen saying that the health reports show that there is no cholera in that eity. He also received the iollowing from the United States Consul at Quebec: Immigrants from steamship Circassian started for points in Western States via Canadian Pacific, entering at Sault Ste. Marie and Detroit, quarantined for 80 hours. A copy of this telegram was sent to the Treasury Department and was immedi ately forwarded by telegraph to Collector of Customs at Detroit and Sault Ste. Marie. ONLY CHOLERAIC DISORDERS In rrancr.but They're as Fatal as An J thine Ever Imported From Asia. Paeis, Sept 6. Pour cases of choleraio disorders occurred to-day in St Ouen, a village four miles north of this city. The frightful suddenness with which some per sons succumb to the disease is shown in the case of a workman at Fermaize, in the De partment of Marne, who died in great agony two hours after being attacked with illness of a choleraic nature. Thirty-one persons died in this city yesterday of choleraio disorders, and 329 patients suffer ing from the malady were admitted to the hospitals during the same time. There were reported in Havre vesterdav 27 new cases of cholera and 7 deaths from the malady. Since Monday the disease has 4 shown no siens of increase or decrease, -res. terday's new cases being the" same in num ber as those reported Monday.

" HAMBURG TELLS THE TRUTH At last, Agreeing With the Imperial Bul letinsThe Besnlt Shows an Increase of. Cases The Epidemic Growing Mora Violent in One Suburb Charges Against the Steamship Company, Berlin, Sept 7. The oholera returns of the Imperial Board of Health, agree to day with'the report of the Hamburg author ities, placing the number of flew cases in that city yesterday at 702 and the deaths at 333. Compared with the last official figures, these returns show an increase of 28 new cases and an increase of 69' deaths. The board also reports 18 new cases and nine deaths in Altona yesterday. The newspapers of this city make grave charges against the Hamburg-American Steamship Company in regard to the vessels of Its fleet reported from New York to have arrived at that port with cases of cholera: on board. The company refuses to speak about the matter. The Hamburger FremdUait main tains that 4,600 persons have died from cholera in Hamburg within the past fort night At a meeting of the Berlin Medical So ciety to-day, Dr. Grettman announced that no new oholera cases have deolared them selveo in Berlin during the past five days. Prof. Virchow said the epidemic exhibited n6 tendency to advance further "West He said it seemed the climax has been passed at Hamburg. ' The epidemic has increased in violence in the Hamburg Bnburb of Barmbeck and vicinity. Barmbeck, in addition to a num ber of distilleries employing many hands, contains various publio institutions, in cluding an asylum for the insane, a hospital for the poor and a workhouse. QUEBEC MUST BE PROTECTED. It Will Exclude Immigrants Unless the Dominion Uses Force Against It Montbeal, Sept . 7. Special Con siderable disaffection exists in Montreal, owing to the fact that the Dominion Gov ernment refuses to prohibit immigration through the St Lawrence until the cholera epidemic is over. The authorities at Otta wa have been petitioned to grant this boon to the Province of Quebec, but so far have refused. Dr. La Chapelle, President of the Provincial Board of Health, says: "If the Federal Government does not ex clude immigrants and disinfected vessels, not in a week or two weeks, bnt immedi ately, then the Provincial Board will pass a by-law excluding all Buch vessels from provincial ports. This will be sanctioned immediately by the Lieutenant Governor in Council, 'and means will be taken to en force it strictly. Should the Federal Gov ernment consider such a regulation as an infringement of its prerogatives, it will have to assert them bv main force." 6HEEIFF JTCOBMICK STILL FBEE. Be Denies Allowing Prisoners to Go Borne, but Admits Working Them. UNIONTOWir, Sept 7. Special Con siderable excitement and talk were caused on the street last night when the news reached town that Sherift'McCormick would be arrested. Deputy United States Mar shal Charles Garber, of Pittsburg, was ex pected to arrive on the morning train with the warrant, but up to noon to-day he had not put in an appearance. Garber came up here about a month ago, quietly collected information and reported to United States District Attorney Walter Lvon, who brought the charges against the Sheriff yes terday of contempt of court Sheriff McCormick was seen and said: "I have npt yet been arrested. I will say this, however: None of the prisoners have ever been permitted to go to their homes." Whe asked if the prisoners had been worked, the Sheriff said: "Some of the prisoners were employed to do light work in the park, but none were ever worked on the electric railway."

Sept 7. Horse owners .re fused to race at Garfield Park to-day and the track shut down for the afternoon. To morrow afternoon, after they get through mourning for their deceased friend, Colonel Jim Brown, they will be ready for the re newed raids of the police. For to-day, at least, the police triumphed. The racing folks deolare, that, come what may, sport will be resumed to-morrow. Sensational results will grow out of the warfare. On one side will be the gamblers' millions ready to overthrow the Mayor. The Mayor and police, once the warmest of friends, have been estranged, and are now in such a position that the reputation of one or both of them for personal honor and official integrity is jeopardized. And all this comes of jealousy between two sets of gamblers, one at Garfield Park, the other at Hawthorne. The old fight be tween Corrigan, who was then running the former Garfield Park traok, and the down town gamblers, who now control it, Is still on. Corrigan started the Garfield Park track, and through some mysterious influ ence downtown poolrooms were closed. Later things came the gamblers' way. Mc Donald, Hankins, Condon, Dahl and the trust had the best of it Corrigan heard that money was being paid by the gamblers to somebody close to the Mayor. Then he filed a sensational bill, charging the Mayor with receiving money for letting poolrooms run. t McXanghry Wasn't to Be Persuaded. The administration did not defend itself against the accusation. Corrigan did all he could to defeat Cregier. Some of the gamblers worked for Cregier and others for Harrison. Washburne wastelected and Corrigan claimed credit for it He had no need of protection because his trick was outside the city. , Again the pool rooms were suppressed. After that, Hankins et ah started the present Garfield Park Club track. Mc Claughry was haunted day and night by emissaries of both parties, one trying to persuade him to close Garfield track, the other to induce him to leave it alone. He was offered bribes but refused them. Then he was threatened. Intimations that crooked work In his penitentiary connection had been found out and would be exposed were made to him, but he declined to be frightened. Then systematic work was commenced on the Mayor. He was easier than the Chief, and it is claimed that the Garfield folks now hold a club over his head and? that he must obey their bidding. The war against Garfield Park actually commenced last win ter. The club continued its races long after the regular season, and Chicago was for a time a second Guttenburg. Finally the newspapers refused to notice the track and the meeting came to a sudden, end. This spring a license was granted to the club for 30 days, but was extended for a week The Conflict With the Ordinances. The meeting opened' May 21 and closed June 24. On June 25 the meeting of the "Washington Park Club opened before the Garfield and Hawthorn tracks were shut down. The summer meeting of Garfield Club commenced July 25. The club could not secure a license and started in without one. For a dar or two the' admission was free and then the usual prices were charged. The meeting of the Northwestern Associa tion oi Trotting and Faoing Horse Breeders opened August 15 and continued a week, daring which time both race tracks were closed. It was after this meeting that" the trouble really began. The club secured an injunc tion and later the City Council passed an ordinance obligatory on the Mayor to Issue a license to any mile race track within the, city on payment of ?100 per day. The Mayor vetoed this ordinance. Then the counsel for the Garfield Park tried to prove that the Kenny ordinance, forbidding pool selling within, the city limits, bad not been printed in the newspapers and was therefore void. The Court held that the ordinance was invalid, and Gar field, which was shut down for a day, again resumed racing. No admission was charged, bnt the receipts irom the bookies paid lor the purses, and, as tho'public spec ulated liberally, the officials did not worry. bnt they had no licenses. While the pool" cases occupied the attention ot courts, racing was continued, and to evade the law no admission was charged, butthePinkerton gate keepers would not admit anyone who did not display a badge. The ticket sellers required patrons to fork over a dollar at the window. Then the dollar and a ticket was shoved back. Then the Balds Commenced. f The first actual raid was made last Fri day, when the officials, track employes and jockeys were arrested. Then on Saturday a more decisive raid was made. This time bookmakers, sheetwriters, cashiers, officials and horse owners were roped in. On Mon day Garfield was in a state of siege after the races had been run. , The police demanded admission at the gates, and being refused, battered them down. The patrol wagons rumbled, and about 15 arrests, including several unruly spectators, were made, and yesterday came the climax in the running gnn fight whioh ' laid low Colonel Jim Brown, of Texas, and two brave policemen. This statement of the Garfield side of the case is from its attorney, Knight "Previous to these raids," he said, "the police have treated us fairly. When we differed on a point of law we submitted to the arrest oi one man, ana the case was tried in the higher courts. In 'the manda mus proceedings against the Mayor to com pel him to issue us a license, we abided by the decision of Judge Baker. The police then arrested one man, and we tested the validity of the act ot '1877. Then Judge Kettle decided In our favor, and. the next move on the part oi the police was to arrest another man under the Kenny ordinance and one under the amusement act "Judge McOonnel held that the Kinny ordinance was invalid and discharged the prisoner. In the other coses he decided we could not ran races and charge an admis sion fee without a license, and we gave free admission. Then McClaughry came along with his opinion, and a man named Wind sor swears ont warrants charging us with keeping a disorderly place. It 1b a con spiracy, and the Chief of Police is the head and front of it" r The SIuyors Saddrn Change. It is certain that the Mayor and his Chief of Police are not working 'harmoniously to gether. ,lt is known that the Mayor li not in iavor of raiding Garfield, although a lew short eeks ao ho was its must prououuead immmsi&t opponent HI change of front was the sensation of hour. The Chief's well con structed plans were knocked side-wise. Af ter a few days of detective work, Mc Claughry satisfied himself, as to the reasons that led Washburne to abandon his fight Against gamblers. He remembered the Mayor's solicitude as to the appointment of Harry Wilkinson, Vice President of Gar field Park Club, and editor of Mike Mc Donald's organ, the Globe, as chief of Chi cago detectives. Wilkinson was a Democrat and not in sympathy with a Bepublican administra tion and knew there was something behind it Major McClaughry is 'regarded as a man of honor with positive morals and re ligious views. He was warden of the peni tentiary at Joilet once, and his honesty or good moves have never been impeached. He and the Mayor and others held conferences on the Wilkinson case. The Mayor not only Implored, but demanded that Wilkin son be given the important position he sought, bnt McClaughry heard of the man's record and turned him down. It was evident that Wilkinson and the crowd back of him exercised some evil power over the dudish cigarette smoking Mayor. Degree by degree the fact devel oped that the city's chief official was landed in the Garfield net There were stories, v and they have not been disputed, of visits to the two sisters who lived on the South side. One is charged with fringing about the change of heart in the head of the city. She is said to have vigorously urged the claims of her sister's friend for chief detec tive upon the attention of the susceptible official. The Sporpf at Woman's Will. Woman's influence may, after all, be re sponsible for the triple tragedy of Thurs day. One night, so the story goes, Harry Varnell, who recently discarded prison stripes, John Condon aud other Garfield officials happened in the Southside bouse. Who was there and what happened is not recorded, but ever since it is charged that the city's .executive has been lukewarm in his prosecntion of Garfield Park. Dread of exposure on the one hand, and the ruina tion of political prospects on the other, J have haunted him day and night The Mayor did not'eome to town to-day. He is spending the season at Highland Park. He was expected to take charge ot the Be publican convention which met to-day and direct the party machine, but he foiled to show up. His office at the City Hall was deserted, and he did not wield his official ax and drop the head of his Chief, the man who so flatly contradicted him on the stand, into the executioner's basket He did neither of these things. What to-morrow will bring forth nobody knows. McClaughry, though, is thoroughly posted as to the escapades of of the Mayor, and asserts with positlveness that he will not desert the ship nor resign while under fire. "I have no intention of resigning," he said, "neither have I received any intima tion from the Mayor that my resignation is wanted. I have not seen or heard from him to-day. We will continue to raid Garfield Park and arrest all people who are on the ground alike. I am sure that the police did their duty yesterday." Three weeks ago it was given out the Mayor had promised to let np on Garfield, and that he would make things so hot for 'McClaughry that he would be forced to re sign and that then a chief favorable to the Garfield Park people would be appointed. But the Mayor reckoned without his host In Sympathy With the Police. Publio sympathy is with the Polioe De partment not with the Mayor, "Hemp" Washburne. In his fight against Garfield, Majoi McClaughry hBs the indorsement and support of the strongest and most influential citizens. Should he be arrested, as the gamblers threaten, bail will be offered to the extent of millions and his defense will be provided for by the good will of the best men in Umcago. "We shall have Chief McClaughry ar rested and charged with murder," said At torney Paul Brown, who represents Gar field, "to-day. "I have had conversations with different eye-witneBses to the shooting yesterday, and, according to them, we can easily form the charge of murder against the Chief. Inspector Lewis will also be arrested on the same charge. Perjury, con spiracy and attempting bribery will be the other charges against the Chief. We also intend to arrest Windsor on the charge of perjury." Alexander Sullivan, counsel for the club, said: "I cannot tell you what we will do. I have no statement to make." "Do you intend to prosecute the Chief ot Police lor mnrder 7" "I know nothing about it I am not res ponsible for newspaper reports." When Justice Woodman called the cases of Jefferson Hankins, F. D. Foss, Jos. Swigert, N. L. Clark and A. Coleman, who are charged with keeping a gambling faonse against the city ordinances and disorderly conduct, as defined by the statute, a con tinuance was taken until September 14. The cases are those based on yesterday's raids, and warrants, with the principals mentioned, were booked against 55 grand Btand occupants, charged with being inmates of a gambling house. Their cases were also continned until the 14th. The principals gave bond of $700 each, while the smaller frv were allowed to depart on $200, securities. A M'EEESPOBT B0BBEB HAS FBIE5D3.

F. Mullen and O. P. McKay, of Fayette Oity, were tried in the Criminal Court here to-day, for Belling liquor without license. Both defendants are practicing physicians and have drug stores in Fayette City, and their defense was that they sold only on prescription. The prosecution made'ont a pretty strong cose, especially against Mullen, and proved that he sold without prescription, mostly on his own prescription and to men when he knew they did not want it for medical pur poses. They were tried before separate juries. Mullen was convicted and McKay was acquitted, but made to pay costs.

AN INFORMER OUTWITTED. John A, Bayburn Does the Detective Act Among; Disorderly Houses Seventeen Information! Made One Case Heard by Bohe, la Which, the Detective Was Left. John A. Bayburn, a riverman who for several weeks had charge of the dining room in the Homestead mill, has been running a Law and Order Society of his own. Yester day his first case was heard by Alderman Bohe, and Mr. Bayburn came out at the small end. He is now threatened with prosecutions against himself, and there may be some very Interesting developments be fore the affair is closed. .Bayburn last week made before Alder man Bohe informations against 17 keepers of disorderly houses charging them, under the'act of 1855, with selling liquor on Sun day. -Under that law the fine is $50, of which one-half goes to the prosecutor If he does not testify in the case. It seems that Bayburn did not know about this "it" Several of the women prosecuted retained John Marron as their attorney, and they told him that Bohe's constable, when he served the warrants, advised them to go quietly to the alderman and pay the fine; that if they retained a lawyer other charges wonld be made against them. Eleven of the cases were set for hearing yesterday morning. When the first case was called Bayburn was not present, but his chief witness, Bichard Elliott, was on hand and testified. No lawyer appeared for the prosecution, but Mr. Marron was there for the defense. Elliott's testimony was racy, and he himself was a good speci men of the rounder. He interlarded his statements with abundant slang and pro fanity. He hod come from Philadelphia, he said, to work in the Homestead mills, where Bayburn employed him as a steward. He lasted a little over a week there, afterward made a trip to Cincinnati on the steamboat Pacific, and since then had done nothing except to make two rounds rof the disreputable houses with Bayburn. These tours were made on Sun days, August 28 and September 4. He said Eaybnrn spent all the money, buying beer in each place. Elliott had no casn. "I'm a broker," he said. He declared he had no idea at the time what Bayburn was at, but noticed that he put down the name and number of each place. Elliott said Bay burn was paying his board. "If he didn't," he said, "I'd have to carry the banner." Just as Elliott finished Bayburn ap peared. The Alderman asked him if he wished to testify. Bayburn tnmed to the constable and said: "I told you not to set anytime for a hearing in these cases." "Never mind that," said Attorney Marron, "the time has been fixed and this case is on trial." Babburn then wanted a continu ance to get his lawyer, but the Alderman said he did not need a lawyer. Bayburn then testified to buying beer from the de fendant on Sunday, Augut 28. On cross examination he said he had lived in Pitts burgoff and on, for 22 years. He had been a riverman most of the time, hod been a policeman in Cincinnati and had done de tective work in Pittsburg. When asked for whom he is now working, he declined to answer. Alderman Bohe fined the defendant 50 and costs. Bayburn was chagrined when told that he could get none of the fine be cause he had testified. The Alderman after ward called Marron aside and said: "I hear you intend to have Baybura arrested?" "Well," answered the attorney, "we ex pect to institute some prosecutionsr" The Alderman scratched his head awhile, and finally said: "I guess there has been a mis take in this case, and this fine will be re voked." The ten other cases were con tinued until the morning of September 15. Some of tbp Schools Crowded. The reports which the Central Board of Health has beard from a few of the schools show them to be very crowded this year. The Liberty school Is overcrowded in the lower rooms and will probably require an other teacher. The High School, Normal, 'Mt Washincton and Grant schools are all crowded, and will likely have to convert some of their halls into rooms. FALL CARPETS.
