The approach f this cold wave over the central Mis sissippi valley III your section was an ticipated by the published forecasts of the bureau on Saturday, and this morning a special bulletin was Issued, giving telegraphic warnings of the de cided change in temperature to 1,21m stations, located in the states of the upper 'Mississippi valley and upper lake regions. These warnings have been extended eastward to the states of Ohio valley In a irt Id pat ion that the cool wave will extend over these states Monday nteht. ' The approach of this cold wave was first indicated by the report received from the extreme northwest Canadian stations on Thursday, and its slow movement to the southward was due to an extended area of high pressure, which covered the eastern half of the I'nlted States with its center over the South Atlantic states. This distribution of ptessure gave persistant warm southerly winds until the area of high pressure covering the cold wave gathered siillleieiit force to overcome this resistance. The cool wave was driving almost southward over the Kocky mountain stations dur ing Sept. 20 and 21. tteinUd by snows and freezing weather 111 Colorado, the Pakotas and Nebraska, while there was some uncertainty as to the rapid ity of the advance of this cool wave to the eastward, when it tlrst appeared the extreme northwest there was strong probability on Saturday that It would extend over the central valleys tonight, and such notice was duly given, while the morning report of today Justified a wide distribution of the emergency warnings above referred to. The rapid development of the depression which Is now central over Lake Superior will hasten the movement of tills cool wave to the eastward andi every available means of notifying the public of the much-needed change In temperature hns been brought Into requisition to night In the staffs as far east as Penn sylvania. Within this region about 2.000 stations or towns have been notilled of the probable break In the warm wave. (Signed (Moore, chief of weather bureau. At the Windy Cltv. Chicago. Sept. 22. The hottest Sep tember week which the people of Chi cago have experienced in over twenty years was followed tonight by a sud den cold.

The tem perature is falling slowly as the great cobl blast from the northwest ap proaches In all its relieving force. There were half a dozen serious prostra tions from the heat during the day and one death. The advance of the cold wave about 8 o'clock was heralded by a wind of great velocity which did some damage to property ami eonrlnued while the heated atmosphere was being rapidly cooled, (lain also added to the metio loglcal phenomena of the day.

BODIES LYING OX THE STREETS Filthy Habits of the Natives Responsible. tXIghtccn F.uroponn and American Residents lluvc Succumbed to the Terrible I'laguo. San Francisco, Sept. 22. William F. Cumls, a WaS'lilugton correspondent for a Chlcngo newspaper, was a pus Benger on the steamer Gaelic, which ariivd from the orient yesterday. He went to Japan in Muy lust to study the commercial and Industrial pros pects afforded Americans In thut coun try, and lately he has been In China, which he describes as the pest breed ing center of the universe. "The cholera has attained fearful proportions In China," said Mr. Curtis. "Chinese are dying by the thousands. I passed through the streets of I'ekin, Shanghai and Tien-Tsln, and saw cholera victims dead und dying on every hand. It Is no uncommon sight to see the dead bodies of cholera vic tims lying on the Htreet on one block, and In the next a lot of Chinese gorging themselves with raw cucumbers nnd melons. The cholera' Is altrlbuatble to the filthy habits of the Chinese and the weather. The summer was quite cool until August. Then a spell of ex cessively hot weather came on and with It the cholera. "In I'ekin they have a plan of Issuing permits for the removal of the bodies outside of the city walls, as no bodies are Interred within the walls. To se cure permission for the removal of the remains of a cholera victim outside the walls of the city a cash Is dropped In a box. (Cash Is a small brass coin, worth one-twentieth of one cent). At night the cash receptacle Is full. It contains from 2,000 to 3.000 pieces of coin, which shows the enormous extent of the dis ease. It Is as bad at Shanghai nnd Tien-Tsln. and Is also- mowing down Chinese by the hundreds In other parts of the Infected country." Few Foreigners Afflicted. Mr. Curtis suld that the cholera Is confined almost exclusively to the na tive Chinese. In I'ekin, where very few foreigners reside, he had heard of no deaths among the white population. In Tien-Tsln only one death among the foreign population had been reported up to the hour he Ictft China. In Shang hai, where the cholera Is raging at an awful rate, the fatalities have been much greater. Mr. Curtis said he had been advised of eighteen deaths. Speaking of the subject which Mr. Curtis went to Japan to Investigate, the commercial and Industrial future of Japan, he said he has returned to America convinced that America has no market In the mikado's realm for manufactured goods. "The Japanese make almost every thing they want," he said. "They are stealing our patents an;lvojnylng our Inventions, und are now almost ready to export their wares and thereby enter into ruinous competition with other nations. There Is, however, a splendid market for machinery, as well as for cotton, Iron and other raw materials, cotton particularly. The Japanese are now using cotton very largely, anil here Is a pointer for American cotton producers. While a great deal of American cotton Is used In the orient, It goes through Knglish hands before it reaches the Japanese, and the Ameri can grower Is deprived of the com missions, which go Into the pocket of the Knglish middlemen In Liverpool Our ecJtton ought to be shipped direct to Japan. For that purpose we need tlie Nicaragua canal; we need the com pletion of the Ciuntemnla railway and open harbors at the two termini of the Tehuantepee railway. "Amertea could sell a lot of cotton In Japan. In two or three years Japan will control the cotton trade of the orient." Yokohama. Sept. 21. The Japanese Parliament hns voted a credit of 200. noo.oon yen for the building of four Ironclad ships, ten coast-defence ves sels and fifty torpedo boats. VIVE MKN PERISH.
