While these show a heavy mortality for the hot months, the ravages are not such as to tause fenr so far as this country Is con cerned. The last reports from Cuba show that smallpox is proving mure deadly than yellow fever. The fever is epidemic at the seaport towns, where the Spanish troops are garrisoned, but the smallpox Is viru lent throughout the entire Interior. A recent letter from Pr. Camlnero. United States sanitary Inspector at Santiago de Cuba, says there are two thousand rases In that province which has-16,000 population.

He found his son convalescent, but sud denly became very ill himself. Mes sengers were sent to Drs. Draper, De lafield and McClaln, who at once went to the house. Mr. Vanderhilt's condi tion became worse yesterday. Early in the evening paisersby at the Vander bilt mansion were surprised to see parts of Fifth avenue and Fifty-seventh street strewn with tnnbark. Everyone in the house was reticent as to the na ture of Mr. Vanderhilt's illness, al though It is believed to be a light at tack of paralysis . caused by worry over his son's approaching marriage to Miss Wilson. At first no one would admit that Mr. Vanderbilt was ill, but when the tanbark was spread around the house, they reluctantly confessed. So ill was be yesterday that Cornelius Van derbilt. jr., dtd not go out at all. but remained with his father. Mrs. Vander bilt and her daughter are at the Break ers, but are expected In town today. It is feared that his son's decision to marry, with or without his consent, has worried Mr. Vanderbilt so much that It has brought on a paralytic stroke. Young Mr. Vanderbilt drove In Cen tral park with Miss Wilson on Monday for the first Ime since the attack of in flammatory rheumatism compelled him to put off his approaching marriage. The marriage, which it was expected would take place this week, will be post poned until his father's health is re stored.

MEASURES AND NOT MEN The Motto of the St. Louis Con ventions TWO PROPOSITIONS MADE Either of Which Would Insure tbe Election of Bryan While No Definite Agreement Has Been Made, the Kndorsem:nt of Bryan Serms Practically Certain Associated Press Special Wire, ST. LOUIS, July 14 —The rush of poli ticians to attend the Populist nad silver national conventions have not yet set in although a few of the leaders have ar rived. Chairman Taubeneck and Scr geant-at-arms McDowell ef the Populist national committee predict one of the lamest crowds that ever attended a con vention. "Many of the best men in the party will be hen." aaid Chairman Taubeneck. • There v ill bo U6O delegates, represent ing over two million voters. Wei have every reason to bellev ethat in point of numbers attending it will far outrank the Republican convention. We shall meet in th.' same building which will afford an opportunity to observe the strong points of difference." As the Popullatl begin to gather it Is evident that there will be two proposi tions made which will form the chief contention of the convention. One is that tho Populists shall abandon any idea 0 J ay separate and distinct national ticket and endorse outright the candi date and platform of the Chicago con vention. This proposition will be sup ported by the frlenda of Senator Henry M. Teller, nearly all the Populist mem bers of the United States senate and the People's party leaders In many of the western states. The west and southwest and the northwest are nearly solid for the proposition to indorse Mr. Bryan and put up n.. other ticket. From the south comes delegates and People's party leaders who are not dele gates to the convention urging another proposition—to put up a presidential ticket, to adopt a platform, to run pres idential electors in all states where the People's party has an organization and then when the time comes to cast the votes in the electoral college let the Populists and Democrat combine on the strongest man. whether that be Bryan oi' the Populist nominee. Vigorous objection is urged against this on tho ground it would be dangerous to the common cause of free silver. The convention of the national silver party, which convenes in this city July 22 at the exposition building, will' vie in numbers with that of the Populist, which meets the same day. The national silver convention will have 120u delegates and as many alter nates, coming from every state in the union, the representation being based on the estimated strength of the advo cates ..f silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, Irrespective of former party affiliations. Dr. Mott of North Carolina said today : that while there was a quasi understand* I Ing between his party and the Populists in behalf of the interests of silver, tbere was as yet no agreement or definite movement in the direction of unity of action as regards the presidential tick et to be voted for next November, OPPOSE FUSION. FRESNO, July 14.—The Populist cen tral club of Fresno county held a largely attended meeting in this city tonight.

At the conclusion of the discussion the following resolution was adopted with out a dissenting vote: Resolved, That it is the sentiment of this meeting that it is to the Interest of It" national Populist organisation to "keep In the middle of the read" and neither fuse with any other parly nor indorse its candidates. wii.r.srppt irt BRYAN.

PROSPECTS IN ALASKA Arc Not Growing Rich With Dangerous Speed to Any Extent OAKLAND, July 13.—A letter from W.

It is written from Sunset City, Alaska, and recounts at much length the experiences of the pros pectors, Clarke sp aks first of the oqua hie climate and mentions the fact that the snow seems to be rapidly disappear ing, and that the thermometer only reaches the freezing point only once In forty-eight hours. He then says: "The gold hunters are at work along the beach in the sand and they all llnd 'colors.' The pieces are worth from 23 cents down. The sand Hats are located by Tulare farmers. Snow - and floating ice bring the gold down and deposit it on the beach in the sand and slate. They find from 15 to 25 cents a day and go crazy over It. Some few, however, make from 50 to 73 cents per day. The gold found is worn and [laky and is scratched In many cases by harder substances, showing that it ha.s been washed a long way. The pieces found are the size of small peas. There is but little quartz found near the water. "Part of our party has left and people are going In every direction, walking over good and bad ground, panning here and there on the surface, then crying •fraud' and selling out at any price, only to return to civilization.

Faure, the President of France, Assaulted NO INJURY WAS INFLICTED And the Enthusiastic Crowds Shout in Frenzied Joy The Assailant Promptly Arrested and Nir rowlv Escapes Lynching—A Crank Who Has a Bad Record Associated Press Special Wire. PAIUS, July 14.—An attempt uns made on the life of President Fame today. The president, however, escaped unharmed. President Faure went to Champs de War to review the troopa. H" had no sooner reached the field than a man in the crowd stepped forward and fired at him. The shot did not take ef fect. The WOUld-he assassin was arrested and declared than he only fired a blank cartridge. When it became known in the crowd that the president had not been hurt by the pistol shot, cheer after cheer was sent up. The news of the attempt upon the life of the president spread With great rapid ity among the crowds celebrating the national fete day. jHa was every where received with cheers, the populace taking that means of ex pressing gratiticution ut his escape from violence. „ President Faure was seated in an open carriage, accompanied by M. Mellne, premier, and It If. Hoydefer, and Tourney, when a well-dressed man. ap parently 40 years of age, who had been leaning against a tree, took deliberate aim and Bred at the president twice In quick succession with a revolver.. He had not time to fire again before the crowd closed in upon him and seized him, and but for the Interference of police he would have probably been lynched. The name of the miscreant is given as Francois. It appears that some time ago in order to draw attention to a sup posed grievance he fired a revolver In the hall of the chamber of deputies. Francois declares he had no desire to harm the president, and the sole purpose for his act was to secure a hearing by the president of his grievance. Throughout the sensational events of the day, and the exciting scenes which accompanied and followed the attempt on his life, President Faure maintained an outwardly placid demeanor and man ifested not the slightest sign of anxiety. When Francois, the attempted assas sin, straightened from his lounging po sition near a tree and opened fire on the president of the French republic, the latter showed no alarm, and the open carriage in which he was riding made no pause, but proceeded across the review ground to the presidential tribune, where he was to review the troops who were out in parade in honor of the anniver sary of the fall of the Pastlle. The cool headed course pursued by the president promptly assured the crowd? of his per sonal safety and welfare, and the first momentary apprehension of a tragedy gave way to a frenzy of congratulation. The president's carriage was greeted In its progress to the presidential tribune, after the shots had been fired, with en thusiastic cheers from tho dense crowds which packed all sides of the parade grounds in expectation of the brilliant spectacle. Shouts rose from thousands of throats. "Vive Faure!" "Viva la Re publlque!" and similar expressions. President Faure retained his calm and self-possessed demeanor, and after he had taken his place in the presidential tribune he frequently acknowledged the enthusiastic greetings that were given him from all sides by raising his hat. The man Francois fired two shots in tbe presence of hundreds of people, whose attention was. however, directed towards tbe president's carriage. The immediate spectators of the act, horrl ti 1 and indignant, rushed upon the shooter witli loud criet", of "A mort, a mort." (Kill him.) Things looked de cldedly threatening for M. Francois, and it seemed as though summary punish ment was to be wreaked upon him by the Infuriated)orowds. But a strong escort of police appeared promptly on the scene and took charge of the culprit and suc ceeded in transferring him in safety to a police station. There Francois was Im mediately examined and stated in reply to inquiries that he was a foreman in the imperial office works The revolver he used was still in his possession. It was a small weapon of the bull-dog pat tern and still contained undischarged blank cartridges. Francois claimed the two cartridges he discharged were also blank and his purpose in firing them was simply to create a sensation and thus call attention to his grievances. Another man named Boulant was also arrested at the same time as Francois. When the latter had Bred tit the presi dent ami the crowd rushed at him with a threatening aspect, Boulant came to his defense, exclaiming: "Well done; that's the man for me." Upon the, return from I.ongehamps to the city after the review of the troops was over President Faure received a tremendous ovation from the people who lined the whole route, anxious to get a glimpse at the president. Loud cries of "Vivo le president" and "Vive la republlque" resounded from all fid. s. The full name of the man who attempted to shoot the president is found to be Kugene Marie Francois. His record proves to be well known and he has been under surveillance of the police. Jl" v, as dismissed from his position as foreman of the municipal workaln June for smiling threatening verses to the president of the municipal council. On June -i'th he threw In the chamber of deputies pamphlets entitled "Freedom of Writing in the Ninteenth Century Un der i-viix I." j n this pamphlet he spoke of the abuses or the administration and dei In red attempts had been made lo poison him wherever he went. After the excitement hnd somewhat abated the firing of the shots began to be regarded as only the irresponsible and harmless act of a madman. But nevertheless several of the ambassadors Of foreign powers anrjl diplomats called upon President Faure to offer their fe licitations and sovereigns telegraphed their congratulations upoon his escape. The members of the Ancient and Hon orable Artillery company of Massachu setts w ho are lv the city did not venture to attend the review on account/of the heat. Many soldiers fell In the ranks during the day* from sunstroke. It is thought probable that today's experi ence will Induce the authorities to hold the review of the troops on July 14 In the morning, In order to avoid needleas suf fering, i t» Accused of Burglary Louis Young, a tinsmith residing on Boyle Heights, was lodged In the county jail last night on a warrant alleging burglary.

CHUREA BEHIND THE BARS The Suspected Murderer of Jose Ochea in the County Jail Captured In San Gabriel by Deputy SherU Wilton—He D.'nlee Committing the Crime and Kefutes to Talk The supposed murderer of Jose Moreo Ochea, the Mexican woodchopper stab bed to death Monday night near Devil's Gate, between La Canyada and Pasade na, has been captured and is now be hind the bars of the county Jail. Ochea worked on the Gould ranch and his friend, Fruncisco Churea, on the Ketch um property, which adjoins Gould's. After it had been found that the two men were drinking together nearly all day on Monday and that Churea was the last person seen with Ochea. the victim, a sheriff's posse started on the hunt for him. The verdict of the coroner's jury was that Ochea came to his death from wounds believed to have been Inflicted by Churea, and, armed with a good description of him, the posse left to rum • mage the foothills. They did not find Churea but ascertained that he had been seen going In the direction of Ban Ga briel. Deputy Sheriff Wilson at that place was telephoned to of their sus picions and inside of an hour, by S p. m., had Churea In custody and was on his way to the city with the prisoner. Churea was found in a house at the old mission, having come to take part in the services over the body of Mrs. Podlllo, accidentally killed the evening before by the discharge of a revolver. He made no resistance and would not talk about the case. When asked If he killed his companion he sullenly answer ed that he had killed no old man; Ochea was 55 years old. Further than this he would not talk und refused to answer questions. He la a full-blooded Mexican, 25 years of age and has heretofore borne a fair reputation. "liloauu Armaments."
