ANTI-CHOLERA fl'ERMS.
A Big I'cdy of Specialists Moving
for National Quarantine.
PRECAUTIONARY BILL PREPARED.
Chief Clerk Gray Was Sent to Investigate
for Pittsburg.
MONET AND MEASURES ARE NEEDED
The appearance of scattering cases of
cholera in Hambunr and other parts of the
old world haB again aw akcned apprehen
sions in this country and city, and anxiety
is expressed as to what measures for protec
tion from the scourge are going to be taken
by the proper authorities.
Just who the proper authorities are was a
vexed question last- year, and in the pre
liminary skirmish with the cholera several
clashes occurred, notably in New York,
where Dr. Jenkins sat himself upon an un
stable pedestal as supreme authority; also
in this city, where several powers clashed
when it was proposed to establish quaran
tine lines outside the city limits, and neither
municipal, county nor State authorities
could agree just here the dead lines should
be placed. As a result Cumberland, on
the southern border, was selected, and Jer
sey City oa the eastern. These weie under
the supervision of the State, while the city
was contppt with a sort ofperfnnctory san
itary m; otion on the Pennsylvania and
Baltimore and Ohio Uailroads just outside
the city lines. This year, it the work of
the American Pi'blic Health Association
bears the fruits ot its labors, there will be
one body, supreme in authority, that will
do away with all the clashinirs of petty lo
cal or State officials, who will all be subor
dinate to the one. The last meeting of this
American Health Association was held in
Mexico, and some curiosity was expressed
as to why Crosby Gray, Chief Clerk of the
Department of Public Safety of Pittsburg,
had been sent on that long journey to at
tend the meeting of the body.
To Investigate Cholera.
'1 was sent to Mexico," said Mr. Gray
last night, "for the express purpose of look
ing into the cholera investigation that was
to be made by the association. It was
known that a strong move was to be made lor
a national quarantine, and I was sent there
to see, hear and learn what I could for the
benefit ot Pittsburg next summer, when an
ounce of experience in prevention will go
iurther than all the theories of cure you can
crowd into a lifetime." Mr. Gray was lor
19 years health officer in this city, and no
one more conversant with the practical side
of preventing infectious diseases could have
been selected tor the important mission.
In telling of what was done and is being
done, Mr. Gray said:
"In summing up the work of the Ameri
can Public Health Association st its last
meeting, I can say that its first object was
to secure a national quarantine. Tne expe
rience of the past summer has been a bene
ficial one, in that it showed our weakness
and pointed out the most effective method
of preventing the importation ot inlectious
diseases. There was too much clashing of
authority, as in the case of Dr. Jenkins
and the Federal authorities. The cholera
was discussed in all its phases by the mem
bers of the association. There were present
340 sanitarians, physicians and health
officers, nearly one-half of whom were lrom
the United States and Canada. Among
those present were men who had met and
wrestled with contagious diseases in every
form; had fought them from house, city and
State, and were now determined that they
eliould be kept lrom tne country it a pow
erful appeal to Congress would have any in
fluence in causing that body to take action.
' The Committee Is Moving.
"Resolutions were parsed and committees
appointed to press the measures belore
Congress, and some important work has
already been done in that respect. The
resolutions embodied the sentiments of the
entire association, and were to the effect
that a national quarantine must be estab
lished if this country desires to be on the
safe side'during the coming summer, when
the cholera invasion is believed to be no
mere threat. The idea is that the national
body should be presided over by
a cabinet officer, and that not
only the American shores should be
watched, but also the foreign.
"The intention is to have an American in
spector at every European point of depart
ure. They are "not to assist the cousuls, but
will themselves be the deciding power in
doubtiul cases. An attempt ha(l been made
to give consuls the power to act in such
cases, but they either did not care to per
form such duties, or coula not, and the
move proved a iailure. In case suspected
persons should pass these foreign inspectors
they should be stopped on this side of the
ocean and returned to their own country, as
it is intended to keep not only a close
watch on where immigrants come lrom, but
on what countries tliey lately passed
through! In order to do this Government
inspection should be increased on this side,
so that a double saleguard will be offered
this country.
Suould Watch IaUo Ports.
"In addition,the national quarantine that
It is intended to create should have men in
every State and city, if necessary, and all
the lake ports should be especially watched.
Canada will co-operate heartily in this, as
the members present at the conference in
Mexico were especially aDxious that this
Government should take action, and thus
the two countries could work together by
. mutual protection."
"Were the members present in favor of
the entire exclusion of immigrants?"
'STes, they desired almost unanimously
to gp on record in this respect. All this,
and even more, was considered and talked
of on every side, and finally embodied in
the resolutions that are being prepared in
the shape of a bill 'to press upon Congress
Tor its speedy passage'
"Will Pittsburg do anything in the mat
ter of preventing the entrance of cholera?"
"Certainlv, and it was to get the benefit
of the experience of all these people that I
was sent to the meeting: Pittsburg will do
her very best to clean house and prepare to
fight the eTil should it come."
"Was it the opinion of the association
members that cholera would be here next
summer?"
No Scourge Is Expected.
"Yes, it was. While no such scourge as
afflicts the old country and occasionally is
leared here, on account of our more sani
tary methods of life, the general opinion of
tne members wastnat cnoiera would visit
this country during the coming summer,
and that its severity depended entirely
upon what measures were taken in time to
shut out the disease. Many thought a strict
national quarantine might keep out the
cholera entirely, but this was not the gen
eral opinion."
"What is Pittsburg going to do to take
rare of her own?"
.'Well, under Chief Brown's instructions
I drew up a garbage bill, which lay in
Councils for a long time. I believe it
finally passed, but in what shape 1 do not
know." (This indifferently.)
"Then vou don't expect the city will ben-
EM greativ oyuis measure ,
".No." said Mr. Gray decisively, "what
is wanted first of all, is money. To do any
pooJ money must be at easy command, then
there will be no such delay in taking active
measures as there was last year. ' In the
carbage problem lies the solution of the
.cholera question. City garbage must be
disposed of, not in a cursory, spasmodic way,
but it must be taken care of carefully aud
systematically. It is the greatest danger
that threatens, and this city cannot be safe
should cholera ever come, and find her tak
ing care of garbage as is done now letting
itsdisposal out to small contractors, dump
boats or furnaces. The garbage question
will come dp, and when it does come it will
be found that money will be needed in
order to do to work perfectly."
EFFECTS OF AN OLD FAILTIBE.
The Plant of the Copelay Iron Company
TjotIciI Upon at Allentown.
AliESrowir, Dec. 29. This morning J.
D. Brodhead, of Bethlehem, and E. E.
Wright, of .this city, acting lor the estate of
Asa Packer, deceased, to the use of the E.
P. Wilbur Trust Company, or Bethlehem,
entered in the Prothonotary's office an exe
cution for 150,000 against the Copelay Iron
Company, of Copelay. The execution was
issued on a confession of judgment given by
the officers of the company, September 14,
1S89.
The Sheriff levied on the property this
afternoon. The concern failed in 1878, and
was reorganized the following ysar as the
Copelay Iron Company, Limited. There
are three stacks, but the works are not in
operation. The company owns ore oeas
in Whitehall township, this county, and
Irong SwampBerks countr. A mortgage
for 5200,000. given by the old Lehigh Val
ley Iron Company, 1878, to cover an isBue
of bonds, stands recorded in the Becorder's
office, and the term of 15 years expires Jan
uary 5, 1891 The mortgage is in favor of
General William Lilly in trust
bondholders.

To Devise Some Method of Protection
Against ruture Big Fires.
Milwaukee, Dec. 29. Two hundred
or more citizens attended the mass meeting
held in the Chamber of Commerce this fore
noon to take action on account of many dis
asters which have recently occurred in Mil
waukee. The meeting resulted in a defeat
of those who entertain the theory that all
the fires were of incendiary origin. Reso
lutions commending the course of the au
thorities' and pledging them the co-operation
of the meeting, as well as calling upon
all good citizens to take the most careful
precautions to prevent the breaking out of
auy more fires, we're adopted.
A committee was appointed to confer
with the city authorities and to call another
mass meeting, it necessary. There are no
new developments in regard to the fires.
A POIKT IN THE JUEY LAW.
Prisoners 'Waiving the Irregular Verdict cf
Short Jury May Be Tried Again.
Shelbyville, Ixd., Dec. 29. Judge
Hackney ruled upon the motion of the de
fendant to be discharged from further cus
tody in the case of the State against Lambert
X. Goldsmith, charged with the murder of
Robert T. Skillman. The question involved
was whether a defendant, having waived ir
regularity of verdict lrom 11 jurors and
having the verdict set aside, could obtain
discharge on the ground that he had been
once in jeopardy.
Tne Court holds that he waived his former
jeopardy by consenting to the discharge of
the juror, and that he must again be put
upon trial. It will come up for trial in the
third week in January.
IHaEE PENSION THIEVES.
II ow a Government Agent's Clerk

Westfall stole the checks from the check
book of Pension Agent Kelly. Two of the

sented them tor payment at the Horton
Bank, identified by Dickson. Westfall has
confessed. Warrants are out for all three.
"Whistler is a saloonkeeper, and Dickson
runs a joint. Westfali's downfall is due to
whibky.
