Senator Hale Says if He Does Not Speak He Will Write a Ringing Letter. ‘Mr. Blaine is confident of republican success | this fall. If he has not made publica statement to that effect he has talked it to Senator Hale. To acorrespondent of the Philadelphia Press the Senator yesterday said: “Mr. Blaine is regaining his health and get- ting in good spirit@ again. If he is well enough to make the effort of speaking he will make two or three speeches in Maine before the clubs of the state, beginning two weeks from Monday. If not, he will write a ringing letter to the voters of the state, which will serve asa key- note to his friends over the country as well. : “Mr. Blaine is just as full of the enthusiasm of republicanism na ever, although bowed down with recent parental grief. He says the demo- erate will be defeated in the presidential contest and Harrison re-clected. “This is the logical result of the political situation as be views it, and the republicans should win the national fight. Maine and mont will lead the skirmirh line of the Novem- ber conflict by their September state elections. Maine will give 10.000 to 12,000 republican plu- | rality for Henry B. Cleaves for governor, and Vermont will roll up an old-time vote. “As to tho congressional delegation from | Maine, we shall clect four republicans, Reed's | majority will be 1,500 to 2,000 —may be larger. He received nearly 5,000 plurality two years ago, but the democrata were apathetic then. They are well organized now and probably bet- ter organized in the state than ever before. “Mr. Blaine will arouse the Maine republi- cans when he addresses them in the stirring words und thoughts with which he is so preg- nant, and we shall have a noble victory all along the line, See Be REPUBLICAN LEADERS IN LINE. Senator Quay Says That the Outlook for the Party 1s Gratlfying. Republican workers say that there is a great deal of unnecessary anxiety in certain quarters about the “discontented republican Senatora.” This anxiety is not Joined in by the republican managers, they say, for the very simple reason that they know that every one of these men whom the democratic papers refer to as sulking are either at work now for the republican ticket or are ready to go to work at any time they aro needed or there is opportunity for them to do anything. Every man is declared to be in har- nese, Senator Quay says be is not sulking. He Passed through Washington last, evening on is way to Florida to engage in his favorite pastine—tarpon fishing. He will be back foro the campaigu 4s properly warmed up. “The afory that certain republican leaders do not intend to work for the republican ticket,” he said, “‘is merely the weak invention of the enemy. It is hardly worth the denial, and I am often surprised that time, paper and print- ing materials are wasted in giving publicity to such stories, so palpably unreal. “I have talked with republican leaders from all parts of the country who have been repre- sented to be sulking andI know they are heartily supporting the presidential ticket. Personal feelings do not control in such matters elte the principles of our party would count for nothing. tially loy indicate the propriety of supporting the ticket Republicans are essen- and, besides, common sense would where duty and devotion to principle did not. “The situation in New ‘York has steadily im- proved for the republicans in the last six weeks. The democratic presidential ticket is weaker than when first nominated.” Senator Quay said the republican man- agers had made a svstematic canvass of the con- ditions of the country and reports were gratifying. “The republican managers are not,” he said, “ ‘rainbow chasers.’ They will ascertain the exact situation in order to be prepared to meet Prophecy is not astrong point with me, but I think the outlook is generally favorable’ and the conditions in the southern. states fully war- rant the hope of getting some clectoral votes from that quarter.” +o REPUBLICAN CAMPAIGN LITERATURE, ‘McPherson's Hand Book Ready—Democrate Using a Republican Speech. McPherson's Hand Book of Congress is ready to goto press and will be out next week. A comparison made between the first session of the Fifty-second Congress and the first session of the Fifty-first is greatly to the disadvantage of the former. The book will give figures to support the statement that the present House has shown itself to be feeble, incapable of accomplishing any great things, and, in spite of its great efforts to make a record, less eco- nomical in expenditures than was the Reed Congress. Mr. McPherson says that this Con- gress has not scored a single point to go to the country on with a claim for approval. ‘There i# a great demand from southern demo- crate for republican literature on the people's | party and alliance. The democratic committee are sending out thousands of Gen. D. B.

The Indications Man Looks for a Big One This Evening. ‘The weather bureau man thinks be has finally completed arrangements with one Jupiter Plu- vius to doa little sprinkling sround Washing- ton and vicinity this evening. J. P. is now ful- filling a similar contract with a large arca of country, the whole eastern half of the United States, with the exception of this neighbor- hood and New York and New England. The conditions for the past twenty-four hours indicated that the sprinkling was about tocommence here,and the weather bureau man confidently expected from hour to hour that it would begin, but for some reason, whether it is because “the watched pot does not boil” or what not, actual operations have been deferred. ‘There is every indication of a heavy storm this afternoon or tonight.

At Altona the army | surgeons have been ordered by their superiors | to assist the civilian doctors in caring for | cholera victims. The papers here, which have been accused of | greatly exaggerating the situation, turn on the authorities today and attack them for persist ently denying the presence in Hamburg of Asiatic cholera until the violence of the out- break made concealment no longer possible. ‘They claim that if the authorities had admitted at the start that the sanitary measures might have been enforced that would have prevented the spread of the | disease to the extent which it has now reached. | > — THE EXCITEMENT IN ANTWERP. Indignation Against the Authorities—Citi- zens Preparing for Flight. Axtwenr, Aug. 26.—The excitement caused | steam pipes will pe fitted up cians that | by the acknowledgment of the ph: Asiatic cholera is in the city has not subsided, and, those who can afford to do so are making | ready to flee to various places to escape the dis- ease. There is no appreciable change in the | situation, It is decidedly believed that the dis- | ease reached here from some vessel from an in- fected port and there is consideruble indigun- | tion that the authorities did not enforce the | quarantine regulations until after the disease had got a firm foothold in the city. It has transpired that the first perrons to fali victims to the disease were dock laborers. They were taken tothe hospitals, where the doctors, though they were probably fully aware that the disease was Asiatic cholera, «tated to newspaper repre- | sentatives and others that it was common cholera and that nothing was to be feared from | it. They acted on the worn-out theory that the | concealment of the presence of a disease will prevent its spread, but — that their reasoning was fallacious was soon gE: for other patients were soon taken to hespitals suffering with the same disease and the number of cases has constantly in- | creased sigoe. The first victims died mostly im- | mediately after entering the hospitals, and the Sppearance of the bodies, if nothing lee, was sufficient proof that common ctolera had | caused death. The bodies retained their, heat for a longer period than is usual when death ix caused by another disease, and they looked as though they had been through a long attack of sickness. Many physicians hold that a post-mortem ex- amination would bave solved the fact that malignantand notsimple cholera was the cause of | death. It is thought that the hospital physicians | were fully aware of the presence of the scourge, but that they were compelled by the authorities | to deny it. A total of one-fourth of | all the patients which have been removed to | the hospitals have died. The quarantine rega- | lations are now being enforced with great se- y. Every vessel from French, German spicious ports, although it may nave no cholera on board, is’ detained for observation, | but this course is held to be useless, as the dan- | ger now lies inthe spread of the contagion from sourees inside the city. cers are using every known preventive to check the disease. a BERLIN PEOPLE FRIGHTENED. Fears That Cholera Has Broken Out in the German Capital. Benux, Aug. 25.—There are serious fears that the cholera has broken out in this ci The wife of a merchant named Landrock, ing at No. 10 Golden strasse, died at midnight last uight with symptoms of Asiatic cholera. ‘The case is being investigated. Ata conference of leading m men held yesterday the opinion was unanimously expressed that an epidemic of cholera was unlikely. It was «ug- rested, however, that everybody should take three drops of muriatio acid daily in a tumbler of water, and that great care should be-taken to | keep thes away from the food. ‘The authorities | on the frontier have been admonished to re- double their precautions against the admission Of persons oF articles suspected of infection, and everywhere the local sanitary officials are displaying the utmost vigilance, ‘The president of the Berlin police has made it known through the press that doctors and hends of families are bound instantly to report all cases of illness suspected to be cholera so Jong as the epidemic shall continue. Ax letters and papers from Russia are not disinfected as they were during former epidemics, persons receiving such things from places where the cholera prevails are advised to burn them as foon as possible and to take care to cleanse their hands thoroughly.

In spite of the spread of the cholera in Eu- rope the local health authorities adhere firmly to their belief that there need be no fear of the disease getting a hold in this country. All possi- ble precautions have been and will be taken. President Wilson of the board of health said today that he did not feel called upon to give sure the public hax enough confidence in the board of health,” he added, “to be satisfied with the stutement that every precaution bas been taken, I think it would be extremely un- wise to say more on that point at the present time.” Dr. Cyrns Edson, sanitary superintendent, seid that while he did not think the cholera would tind its way to this country there was always the chance that it would, and for this reason be had prepared for any emergen! fhe ‘health department,” he continued, like the tire department in this respect, it is always ready to fight anything that comes We ure fully prepared to grapple with cholera the moment it shows itself.

In the first place, there can be no mis- takes made in the diagnosis of the disease. The germs can readily be distinguished, Then, too, the diseare ps very much more rapidly than typhus, The time oceupied in developing cholera ranges from ftwenty-four hours to three days, We made even great allowances, bi ever, in order to be on the safe side, and gave it five davs. It would, therefore, be absolutely impossible for an immigrant to come into this country with latent cholera which might de- velop after he hud passed quarantine. “The cholera, also, is not *o contagious as typhus, The germs ‘of the latter get into the air and so spread at a terrible rate. On the con- trary the cholera germ does not spread im that *. Itdevelops and multiplies with mar \pidity, but cannot be carried without the aid of animal life.

He will particularly examine the ap- tus used in disinfecting, and if superior to En in'ure in this country will recommend the change.
