Federal and Local Medical Men in New
Orleans Believe Yellow Eever
is Under Control
New Orleans, Aug. 21—In full
hope the federal and local au
thorities and the public in gen
eral entered today upon the fifth
week of the campaign against
the fever, which is now consid
ered to be beyond a stage when
a serious epidemic is possible.
“In my judgment,” said Dr.
Beverly Werner, head of the
volunteer forces who have been
in close touch from the first
with the local authorities, “the
day of an impending calamity is
passed. The decrease in mor
tality as shown by the reports is
unprecedented and the situation
is rapidly getting under control.
Dr. Werner said that the pass
ing of a calamity was due in a
large degree to the splendid
work of the marine hospital ser
vice. The federal authorities
have no hesitancy in saying the
fever is being controlled and
checked. They are not ready to
fix the date when it will be
stamped out. The life ot the
stegomyia mosquito is perhaps
two months, and as here and
there a stray infec ed mosquito
is sure to avoid all pitfalls laid
for its destruction, sporadic cases
will doubtless appear alter the
disease is entirely under control.
BIG WEEK AT WESTERN WORLD’S FAIR
Hon. David R. Francis, As President of
The Louisiana Purchase Exposition,
!s Honored By Lewis and
Clark Exposition.
Special Correspur. lence.
Portland, Aug. 15.-—This is
one of the biggest weeks of the
of the Fair, and the attendance
for the week is expected to
break all records. Hon. David
R. Francis, ex-governor of .Mis
souri and president of the Louisi
ana Purchase Exposition, is in
town, and the gates of the fair
have been turned over to him
and his party. “Our Dave” is
delighted with the looks of
things in Portland, and is enjoy
ing his visit. Portland people
have laid themseives out to do
him and his party honor, and his
coming has been made a gala
event.
The Trans-Mississippi Com
mercial Congress is now in ses
sion also, this being the reason
for Presdent Francis’ visit to the
Fair this week.
The attendance continues to
be good, and there is every pros
pect that it will increase from
week to week. Transcontinental
trains are crowded, and the num
ber of visitors from the East and

expectations. The admissions
department reports a total at
tendance to date of 1.198.<41. A
majority of the i eople who come
from a considerable distance take
in California points before re
turning to their homes.
Weather conditions continue
ideal, and vi-itors who come to
the Fair equipped with umbrel
las and raincoats leave them
packed in their trunks. There
were but two small showers in
July, and August so far has been
without rain. In spite of this
fact the Exposition grounds and
the lawns about the city are so
beautiful that visitors from the
East are surprised and delighted.
The explanation lies in the pride
which the exposition gardeners
and the citizens of Portland take
in green lawns and rose bushes,
and in the fact that the city has
an abundant supply of crystal
clear water piped from a moun
tain stream which has its source
in the glaciers of Mount Hood.
Charbon is Raging.
Pine Bluff, Aug. 21. —Bruce
Maurice, who has just returned
»
J
from a trip through Arkansas
county, which adjoins Jefferson
county on the east, reports that
charbon is raging among the cat-,
tie of that county, and horses, j
cows and other stock are dying
by the thousands. Several re
ports have been received of this
plague, which is causing great
loss to the farmers of that coun
ty, and it is feared that the
plague may get a foothold in
this county.
