Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - September 20, 1878, Winnipeg, Manitoba Pax in september 2o. It daily edition. Fri Day. Sept. Jets. Tiik agreeable pictures drawn by fanciful Orivs Pomles of John Bull re Clining Mulure own Vine and Fig tree in the in tiers of Cyprus have been greatly Lowed by the amount of Siuk reported to be prevailing among the troop Garrison there even said to Havu Orenton among them a kind of panic. The a Iii news Cor respondent declares that the disease continues to paralyse the efficiency of the Force. 4 and Keri Yuent Lias 170 on the sick Lut the 101st 130. Six artillery officers Are Down. Of 130 sailors Ana marines sent to Nicosia eighty four Are fever stricken. One officer and nine teen sent to bail o were there for three weeks and Are now All in Pital. Detachment of sappers sent into the Interior was found helpless in a farm hem every Man being delirious with fever. In All about to per cent of the White troops Are about two thirds of the fever stricken medical Force Are also Down. The fever is not deadly but those attacked cannot unite recover while they remain in the Island. The subject brought tinder the notice of the House of commons just before the close of the session but colonel Stanley stated that though cases of fever Lead been numerous there had been nothing severe. In fact the official informed from her bosom by the grim monster and soon she follows them to the grave. In the next household the parents Are taken first leaving the children to die alone unless perchance they have the Good Fortune to fall into the hands of a nurse in time for treatment. Sometimes a whole family is found dead together. In some instances All Are Down some dead others dying and the helpless sick lying beside the dead and offensive bodies. The Relief committee searching for such cases a few Days ago entered a House where All was still save the faint cries of an upon opening the door a scene most pitiful and shocking met their Mother father Ulm children Lay dead upon the floor and a poor Little babe the Only survivor was the Bare breasts of the dead Mother struggling in vain for its food. Such scenes varying Only in the nature of their horrible circumstances Are numerous and of daily for. Dobb said Trio sensation of fear had Long since past. The most shocking scenes have lost their terror to the people. They live Day by Day looking to their end. Which every one who re Mains feels must come sooner or later and look death in the face with callous indifference. In the minds of the phys Einuis and the people the disease is not characterized As yellow fever. All seemed to sub Mit to the feeling which comes Over each one alike that it is and they Don t know what to Call it nor How to treat it. Up to this Lime he said a great Many kept open on a Small scale. Now they were fast closing on account of the death of employers Tion differed by the press. Early from that imparted the colonial treasurer recently made financial statement to the legislative Assembly of new zealand. The Revenue for the past year which was estimated at Loo. Including territorial Revenue actually yielded ski. Including territorial re venue. The total year s receipts including the balance at the beginning of the year and the Revenue collected for local bodies and other items Are being an increase on Revenue items Over the previous year of the rail Way receipts Are yielding a profit of the surplus Revenue for the year Over expenditure is commenting on the budget speech of the minister the australian and a Eto zealand Gazette published in London remarks that the Progress of the Colony both morally and materially still gathers fresh volume and new Force. A Revenue of close on Sterling for so Small a population is something astound ing to old world ideas. It will be seen by reference to the above returns that the railways Are now becoming More than Mere factors in the civilization of the Colony they Are yielding a very handsome profit and will undoubtedly under continued Wise management be come very important sources of Public income. An interesting Section of the financial statement is that relative to the Tariff. The chief feature is a proposition to make the principal and Valorme duties specific to abolish duties yielding 000. And to reduce the duties on Tea sugar and australian wines to the extent of it is proposed fur ther to establish a land tax estimated to yield a tax on joint Stock companies producing , and a tax on colonial Beer to yield customs it remitted to the extent of the new taxes imposed Are to amount to business houses had been continuing their business and employees. Seven had died out of one wholesale grocery causing the sus pension of business. Four had closed causing great inconvenience in dispensing medicines. A great Many saloons Are still kept open and there is still a great Deal of drinking but in most cases Champagne is substituted for whisky. As the sound of the dead wagons is heard Day and night rumbling through the people As gather upon the sidewalks Are seen in groups and laugh ing and , others crying and All in condition of desperation that is Moss distressing to witness. One danger in addition to Tho terrors of Tho plague is an anticipated outbreak by the poor who depend on. The Relief commit tech. Or. Dobb says a communistic spirit on the part of the Irish and negroes is cropping out. The negroes especially Are growing troublesome. In the first place they will not work for any amount of Money whore they must come in Contact with yellow cover patients. They even desert their own fam Ilies and cannot be induced to return. A few Days ago the Rumour got out among them that the government had sent fifty thousand rations there especially for them. This allayed All their fears of having to do any work and they were perfectly willing to lie around and die like poisoned rats if they could Only get free victuals without work. It was with great difficulty that the authorities disabused their minds of this foolishness and now and then com plaints Are so bitter against the Relief committee that there is talk of bringing the military to Bear upon them and to run them out of the City. Or. Dobb says the atmosphere of Memphis is so heavily impregnated with the Poison that its influence is easily perceptible. Persons living in the coun try and going to town in the Day immediately upon entering the streets experience oppressed breathing with a drowsy sensation of the head and de pression of spirits and these Are All sensations As Long As he slays within the atmosphere. Days and but one great object in life to make her husband and family Happy. She cares for them in a peaceful Motherly Way and her serenity and patience which have always secured for Bismarck a quiet Home have certainly contributed to Success through life. She it he once said to a Friend who made me what i a Royal Dayton 0., sept. Stanley known As the Gypsy queer and recognized As such by All the tribes through out the United states was buried at Woodland cemetery in this City to Day. The Queen was a woman of great influence among her race. She died in Vicksburg last Winter and her body was embalmed and preserved until the present time for the funeral. The Ceme Tery was filled with people funeral Visi tors from Tho surrounding country it is estimated that Over Twenty five thou Sand people were in attendance. Representatives of prominent gypsies from All parts of the United states and Canada have been assembling in the City for the occasion and the funeral procession a mile in length. The ceremony was conducted by a minister of the United Brethren Church and did not Dif Fer from that of a Christian funeral. At the close an att eating scene occurred the children of the Queen throwing themselves on the grave and filling Tho air with lamentations. Dayton been for sometime the head quarters of the gypsies in this country and the King husband of the lives near the City and owns a Large tract of ground.

In conversation with a ctn Trier journal reporter at the Louisville hotel upon arrival he said the most extravagant stories that we have heard do _ not fully represent the scenes of horror. The condition of the people he said was indescribably heartrending.
