New York, Aug. 4. Dr. Talmadc of the quarantine board of health, boarded the steamship Karamania this morning and inspected the paisenRcrs. All on board were well. The Katamania ar rived at quarantine yesterday after a loriR voyage from the cholera affected port of Naples. During the voyage three passengers died aud were buried at sea. As the ship's surgeon did not specify the disease from which the passengers died, the vessel vena held for fumigation and disinfection. A suspicion prevailed that the disease was nsiatic cholera, but noth ing definite could be learned laat night. After inspecting the passengers this morning the health officers ordered the transfer boats to take them to the Islands in the bay where they will be detained until all doubts of the existence of chol era are removed. Dr. lenkius says that while he can find no evidence that there has been cholera on board hedeemsthccitcurastanccssufn ciently suspicious to hold the vessel. la appearance the Karamania is not a very attractive vessel. She has the as pect of a tramp steamer, and is, in fact, a Mediteranean fruiter during the season. She is built of iron, is 3148 tons gross measurement and rigged as a schooner. She was built in 1882 and is little bet ter than a floating oven with lack of both light and ventilation. In this ves sel nearly 500 souls spent 21 days ot warm weather cramped for room and air. "The first death on the steamer was given as "congestion of lungs." The other two cases had cramps, diarrhoea and vomiting. Dr. Jenkins says: "Many of the symp toms of the last two cases resemble cholera. There is no need of alarm. The ship and passengers will be detained until we have absolute proof that there is no danger in landing her passengers." London, Aug. 4. According to the Lancet cholera has been epidemic in Marseilles for the last three months. During the last four weeks there have been 826 deaths throughout Prance. The Rome correspondent of the Cen tral News says: "Since the outbreak of cholera in Naples more than 100,000 residents have fled from the city. On Sunday last there were 52 new cases and 28 deaths, and 49 new cases 27 deaths on Monday. Several cases of cholera have occurred in Rome." is LIVES LOST.

The overshadow ing feature of the financial situation has come to be the scarcity of money. Prom all over the country there has been a continual demand for bills ol' small de nomination, aud New York has re sponded so freely to the requests of out of town banks that now the metropolis itself is suffering from what very closely approaches a currency famine. The banks of Chicago, Philadelphia and Boston arc blamed for the present situation to the extent that they hayc failed to take proper measures of relief, and New York has been called upon to supply the whole country. To do this, the banks here have taken out clearing house loan certificates to the amount of $33,050,000. The developments of the last few days prove conclusively the wisdom of the savines banks presidents iu deciding to enforce the time clause rule. Difficulty in getting currency was what prompted their action, and if the drain from that source had not stopped promptly the situation now would not be what it is. Some relief is looked for when the gold reaches here and more us soon as the comptroller of the currency is able to begin delivering the new circulation or dered by the nutionnl banks.

Trains that refuse to stop arc pelted with rocks aud clubs. In some instances trains arc accompanied through Kansas by guards of soldiers to avoid any interference with regular travel by these flying laborers. Kansas Winners lure them along the route whenever they are able to do so and many of the men have accepted woi k on the farms. THIS IS TOlltiH TliouMauds of 'Workers Turned into Tbe Street Idle.
