ELEVEN NEW FEVtR CASES.
No Deaths Reported and Sis Patients
Discharged.
An Explanation From the World as to
Its Disposition of the Relief Contri
butions-A Fatient Not Reported
Sick Until He Had Recovered and
Been on the Streets for Two Hours.
Brunswick, Ga., Nov 9 —Eleven new
cases of fever were reported to-day. two of
' which were white. The white patients
are: J. A. Montgomery and G. H. Peter
son.
The nine colored patients are: W. B.
Furling, Alexander Williams, Mollie
Pearson. James Robinson, Pearl Adams,
Hattie Lewis, Charles Smith, Thomas
Barton and Marie Mock.
Six patients were discharged, none of
them being white. Those discharged are:
Puss Barrett, Robert Pyles, Annie Wil
son, Ephraim Brown, Eva Taylor and
Cicero Payne.
THE WORLD'S RELIEF TRAIN.
The following telegram was received
this afternoon from the World after the
meeting hour of the relief committee and
will be read to them to-morrow: “The
decision as to the distribution of relief
supplies was reached after a conference
with Col. llaiues and on advice of Or.
Bowen. The fund was not raised for
Brunswick alone, but for Brunswick and
the sea islands. This was our announce
ment." Brunswick based her with
drawaljof the appeal for aid on the assur
ance of Dr. Bowen in the presence of the
relief committee, Surgeon Murray
the Morning News correspondent that
the portion of the New York relief
tram intended for Brunswick would con
sist of ten carloads of provisions and sup
plies, among tncin being 1,800 blankets.
With this amount of supplies assured by
a staff correspondent, Brunswick did not
believe it just to receive any more contri
butions from the country at large. For
what has already been sent and is en
route Brunswick is thankful and appreci
ative. Her people will not again appeal
for aid, but will endeavor to distribute
the charitable gifts from a generous pub
lic in a manner to permit no suffering.
The gentleman quoted to-day, regard
ing the “Woodmen of the World” matter,
says an error was made by the corre
spondent in stating that he could get no
health certificate. He says that he can
get a health certificate and be reinstated
by the lodge, but the amount assessed for
reinstating members is so large that aban
donment of the entire scheme would
rove better for him.
REPORTED SICK AFTER HE WAS WELL.
Surgeon Fagei’s reporting J. A. Mont
gomery, ticket agent of the Brunswick
and Western road, as sick with yellow
fever to-day looked rather queer to the
public, in view of the fact that Montgom
ery was first visited by him five days ago,
an., to-day, two hours before he was re
ported as sick. Montgomery appeared on
the streets apparently well and hearty.
The people do not understand such re
ports. All the physicians, both local and
visiting, are honor-bound to report their
cases promptly, and Surgeon Faget’s
seemingly flagrant violation of this agree
ment is receiving severe censure. In the.
first part of Brunswick’s epidemic Sur
geon Gui terns charged a local physician
with concealing cases, and. by so doing,
permitting people unwarned to run into
danger. As Montgomery was sick at the
Four-mile crossing, where a colony of
Brunswick refugees are located, the non
reporting of his case prevented those liv
ing near from avoiding the infected spot.
THE SURGEON EXPLAINS.
Surgeon Fit get was seen by the Morn
ing News correspondent to-night at the
Marine hospital headquarters and in
formed that he was charged with con
cealing Montgomery’s case. He denied
that such was true, and said in substance:
“Montgomery’s case was so light that I
had dirhculty in diagnosing it. I exam
ined his symptoms carefully each day,
and not until yesterday discovered the
signs needed to complete the diagnosis
for yellow fever. 1 would not report any
case until 1 was satislied. I included
Montgomery's name in m.y report to-day.
To-morrow I will discharge him.”
MR. SMITH’S MANAGER ILL.
Commissary Manager Joseph W. Smith
received a telegram from Jacksonville to
day informing him of the alarming illness
of his mother. Having hud the fever,
Surgeon Murray provided him with an
immunity card, and after one day’s deten
tion at camp for fumigation purposes, he
will be allowed to proceed to Jacksonville.
Brunswick sympathizes with Mr. Smith
and nis brotner in their distress. His
brother. J. D., never having had the fever
was nut allowed lo leave Brunswick.
NEGROES WORK A SCHEME.
The negroes are working all manner of
schemes to obtain money and avoid work.
Their latest is to hold a meeting and ap
point a committee to wait upon certain
men in the morning and inform them that
a mass meeting had been held the night
before and they as a committee, were ap
pointed to inform the person waited upon
that he had been selected as a candidate
for mayor. Later individual members of
the committee visit the supi>osed candi
date and apply for a loan of a few dollars.
Several citizens were approached in this
manner, and some arc now thinking they
will be run for mayor, backed by the col
ored element. As the mayor's election
will not be held until December 18114. the
thinness of the scheme was seen through
by many.
the situation at jesuf unchanged.
Jesup, Ga., Nov. o.—The situation re
mains unclouded still, but there are, un
fortunately. no hopes of relief from quar
antine restrictions. Dr. Lincoln received
this morning a telegram from Surgeon
Murray, in answer to repeated solic
itations. saying that ho (Sur
geon Murray) was awaiting infor
mation from Washington. This un
satisfactory news, coupled with
the long delayed payment of the wages
due those employed in the quarantine
service, created a good deal of dissatis
faction, not so much on account of the
laxity of the government paymasters us
on account of the fact of the town being
without a case of yellow fever for live
days, and no new cases having developed
for the past twelve days. All thinking
people are unable to understand why, at
this late season of the year, and over
teu days having elapsed without anew
case, the government does not free us from
the irksome burden of a protective quar
antine. It certainly can not be for the
purpose of protecting other cities, as we
have no fever here and it hardly can be
possible that it is expected to keep out
siders from coming in, for ail those who
have been admitted by permit during the
past ten days, and there have been quite
a large number, show no sign of infection.

CHRISTIAN WORKERS.
Opening of the World's Congress at
Atlanta.
Atlanta, Ga.. Nov, 9.—The world's con
vention of Christian workers was called
to order shortly before noon to-day in De-
Give's oi>era house. Rev. R. A. Torrey, of
Chicago, 111., presiding.
The opera house was beautifully decor
ated with flags of all nations. A number
of mottoes were displayed on the walls,
the central one having received the adop
tion of the convention, and reading as
follows: “Christ, alone, can save the
world, but Christ can’t save the world
alone.”
lmng before the opening hour the opera
house was crowded to its utmost capac
ity with delegates and citizens generally.
A number of elevated seats were ar
ranged on the platform, and these were
occupied bv the more prominent dele
gates.
1,500 DELEGATES ON HAND.
This is the largest gathering that has
ever been entertained in this city. It is
estimated that 1,500 delegates have
already arrived, and more are expected
during the week.
After the devotional exercises this
morning, which began at 9:30 o’clock,
address** of welcome were delivered as
follows: For the state of Georgia and the
south, by Gov. William J. Northen: for
the Christian ministry' of the city, by
Rev. J. B. Robbins: for the local executive
committee by Rev. C. P. Williamson aud
J. F. Barclay: for the city, by ex Mayor
W. A Hemphill: for the press, by L. L.
Kniglit, and for the Young Men's Chris
tian Association, by W. M Lewis.
The addresses left no doubt as to At
lanta’s cordial hospitality.
THE CHAIRMAN’S ANNUAL ADDRESS.
The annual address of Chairman Tor
rey followed, and was an able resume of
the past work of the convention.
Among the prominent delegates in the
city are Rev. E. P. Hammond and Rev.
Josiah Strong, D. D., of New York; Rev.
Thomas Bone, of Ontario, Canada, ana a
number of other Christian workers.
A more intelligent, earnest and busi
nesslike convention never assembled in
this city.
Among the stage decorations this
morning were several stalks of cotton
plant, which attracted considerable in
terest, and. which were inspected after
the morning session with considerable
curiosity.
THE AFTERNOON SESSION.
The afternoon session of the convention
was opened with devotional exercises,
conducted by S. H. Hadley, of the famous
Jerry McAulcy mission of New York city.
The attendance on the afternoon session
was not as large as during the morning.
Mr. Hadley explained the character of
the mission with which he was connected,
and also narrated the manner in which
Jerry McAuley hud been converted.
The devotional exercises of the after
noon session were followea by the read
ing of two brief but interesting reports.
One of these was the report of the Bed
ford Street mission, of Philadelphia, by
James P. Hall, who described the manner
in which this mission was conducted and
the children of the city brought to a
knowledge of the gospel.
This report was followed by another
eoually as interesting. It was that of the
Bethesda mission, of Philadelphia, and
was read by John K. Roak. who lias been
actively connected with the mission for
several years.
“Work for the Night is Coming” was
then sung by the convention, after which
a number of spontaneous prayers were
offered.
George C. Stebbins then sang a popular
convention air.
THE WELLAND MISSION.
Rev. Thomas Bone, of Ontario, Can.,
told of the Welland mission. Mr. Bone,
since the first of last May, has distrib
uted over 12.900 tracts relating to his im
portant mission work.
Thomas D. Roberts made an interest
ing talk on mission work in Boston. He
dwelt, with special earnestness, on the
efforts which had been made in behalf of
unfortunate women, and also the indus
trial feature of the mission work in that
city. His mission began in a drygoods
box. and has property now to the" value
ol #50,000.
Miss W. J. McDonald, of Toronto, Can
ada, read an interesting paper on the
Christian Police Association, one of the
religious enterprises of Canada, and
detailed a number of conversions,
which had been the result of
Christian work in that direction.
MISSION WORK IN ATLANTA.
Dr. V. C. Noreross, of the Fifth Baptist
church, of this city, spoke on the subject
of Christian work in Atlanta. In speak
ing of the mission work in Atlanta, he
stated that he was born a Presbyterian,
but only had to travel a short v.-ay to the
river Jordan to become a Baptist. He had
never been a Methodist, but he loved the
heart.v"Ainens"of that denomination. The
churches of Atlanta had accomplished
a grand and magnificent work during the
past few years, and the missions of the
city were both aggressive and fruitful.
Dr. Noreross stated tnat infidelity had
taken but little foothold in the south;
that religion was honored by the citizens
of the state to such an extent that a man
could not be elected governor unless he
was a Methodist or a Baptist. [ Laugh
ter ].
THE FLORENCE CRITTENTON HOME.
Dr. Norcross thought the grandest mis
sion ever started iu Atlanta was the
Florence Crittenton Home. It was at
first hooted, but a revolution had taken
place and the institution was now well
established. Dr. Norcross in a touching
manner referred to tho rescue of poor
unfortunate girls, and his address was
one of the most eloquent and spiritual of
the day’s session.
The education of the negro was touched
upon during the course of the talk, and
Dr. Norcross stated that the southern
people had taken no small amount of in
terest in this question.
Rev. Josiah Strong, D. D., of New York,
spoke on the “aim and work of tho evan
gelical alliance of the United States.”
TURNED THE PICTURES TO THE WALL.
The lobby walls of Do Give’s opera
house, where the convention is meeting,
are lined with pictures of actresses and
actors. Several of the finest pictures are
of ballet girls and noted premiers in stage
costumes. These-were objected to by the
delegates and were turned to the wall.
At the session to-night Dr. King breached
the convention sermon on the “Mission of
the Church.” It was a powerful, compre
hensive and brilliant presentation of the
subject, and was one of the ablest pleas
for effective and spiritual church or
ganization ever heard in this city. In
terns ing reports were read to-night by
Rev. If. W. Pope, of New Hamsphire,
Thomas B. Ironside, of New Jersey, and
Col. H. H. Harley, of New York.
A LYNCHING IN FLORIDA.

Duncan Killed by a Mob.
Jacksonville, Fla., Nov. 9.—A special
to the Times-Union, from Fort White,

utes Bogue was a corpse. The sheriff is
tryiug to keep the others hidden out. The
town is full of angry, excited men, and
more lynching may follow.”

where, under a floral grotto, the happy
couple received the congratulations of
hundreds of friends.
The reception was on a grand scale, and
the mansion and grounds were thronged
with friends from all sections of Florida.
The immense concourse, the unbounded
joy of the occasion, and the bounteous
hospitality of Florida's popular adjutant
general, reminded the Morning News
representative of the proverbial southern
hospitality of the olden times.

of many handsome and valuable wedding
presents.
After a tour to New York, Mr. and Mrs.
Wall will reside in Tampa, where the
groom is a prominent and prosperous busi
