Commissioner C. S Kills of tha Park

of Forsyth Park and the aqua res In Uul

additional funds with which to maintain
the beauty of the#* grounds. Wht e the
need of funds is fGi. it Is nevertheless
true that t’apt Bills has aornplDhcl

squares by the Judicious expenditure of
the fund appointed to him
The car* which has been given Forsyth

‘This Is the time when bulbs shouui be

Fifteen suits on notes and open ac

f‘.lel in the City Court yesterrkiy. against
Mr. W K Wimpy by that number of
Northern creditors. It is stated that Mr
Wimpy is perfectly solvent and confident
ly predb ted that an agreement, looking
to an extension of time, will le reached
between hi creditors and himself.
The Milts vary In amount from 1125 to
Si •■*. and were filed by Messrs. O’Connor,

apprising them of the stile of his affairs,
and asking an extension of time The
meeting Will be held m the offices of Mr
Emil** N* wman. who is Mr. Wimpy’s
legal adviser.
Mr Newman sab! last night that he
had no doubt whatever that hlw client
would be able to reach n satisfactory
*igret-m**nt wrlth his creditors, and that
the extension of time he asked would In*
readily granted Mr Wimpy’s books show,
miM Mr Newman, that hts **we:s. in

to more than 142.000. while ull that he

The letter stattw that the dull season
has compelled Mr Wimpy to ask of hts

not In a position to meet bis maturing ob

that, with an extension, payment lri full

Including aanliary mattera
Tho mortuary record for September

are aßcnbed to yellow fever, and a total
of 3 to fevera of all forma Thla makes
a very bad record, eapecially after the
amount of money i*nt In aanliary Im

rate la alo remarkable In view of the
f.t that there 1* leaa material there now
for yellow fever to work upon than In

Dr. Wm F. ltrunner. Savannah’* health
officer and formerly quarantine officer of
Havana, expreaetd hi* view* very plainly
when ,eet. by a Morning News reporter
yesterday.
“The condition of affair* l due to the
lack of knowledge on the part of th-
I’nited State* army officer* to handle uny
MTioua sanitary problem." aald Itr. Brun
ner The ainiple truth la thal the peotile
in charge do not understand their bual
neaa. They have not had the practical ex
l—rlence to lit Ihemselvea for *uch work
Ttt,- management ol the aanltary di-ptrt
ment under Ocn. I.udlow waa ha>l enough,
and It has evidently not Improved any un
der <Jen Wood. The latter aeein- to be
(tKleavoting to put In practice the ann
measure* with whlrh tn succeeded in put
ting an end to Ihe fever in Santiago, that
I*, by simply elearlng the city of Its non
Immune population Thla will hardly prov.
successful in a large commercial city Ilk,-
Havana.
The amount of fever prevailing at thla
time la .111 the more remarkable." sai l
Dr. Brunner, "beewuae of the fact that
the amount of non-immune material for
It to work upon la much baa than In
former years The I’nlled St-itt, trtstpa
are quartered outside of the city to les
sen the risk from fever Dialer th-
Spanish regime there waa .1 constant
shifting hack and forth from the home
(-ountry of troop* which were chaugta!
every four year*, many of which wen
quartered In tlve oily, thus affording
fresh supplies of material for the fever
to work upon Thousands of Spanish
merchants, traders, clerks and lalarrera
were constantly coming out from Spain
Very little of the real work of the city
was done by the Outoins. the stevedore*
anil dock laliorers coming from SiM’.n
This steady How of Immigration afforded
constant fresh supplee of material for
the yellow scourge to prey upon an.l
in the naturally un sanitary condition of
the cliy the fever flourished .1* a matter
of course.
"It was to be cxpecied." Dr. Brunner
said, "with Ik hualneaalike and intelligent
administration of affura by American*,
and the application of the most approved
sanitary and scientific methods, that thr
ravages of ihe fever would have been
greatly reduced parllcularly In view of
the fact that Ihe supply of victims, ow
ing to changed conditions, has been great
ly reduced Such results have not been
readied. After two years of American
i-ontrol the condition* tip|>ear to be as
bad as ever, and the sway of the yellow
ycourge continues
"The trouble with the government of
fi.’lals In charge." sal.l Dr Brunner, "Is
that they undertook to conduct th** sani
tary affairs of Havana us If (hey were
ilealing with Boston or some other North
ern cl*les Th men In charge, were
without knowledge of local or climatic
condition and the proper methods of deal
ing with these rondlttons, ami they have
seemed little disposed to learn. Tne |K>or
resuks are not surprising."
The chief sanitary officer under Hen.
I.udlow. was a Major Davis, a railroad
doctor, from Chicago, and aimolnb-d at
the Instance of Senator Cu.kun of I tti -
not*. Hr. Brunn.r was thin quarantine
Inspector of the port, and he was sur
prised to find that the new sanitary chief
seemed devoid of even the most element
ary know.eilge of waultary methods. His
ffme<( for the poxliton was iiased upon
the fail thal he had once live,! In Tennes
see at the time of the yellow fever epl
ib-mlc, at Memphis, in IS7K. an.l the
knowledge thua gained w.i> su|.|’.s3,l 10
qualify him for the position of- hlaf san
itary officer of a tropical city.
One of the tlrst moves of the new san
itarian was to order all the cows removed
without the city limits. As the Cubans re
gard the cow with almost as much favor
as do Ihe Irish the order raised n gnat
howl. It was never enforced anil It was
c'harged thal the dairymen hod raised a
gratuity and put It where B would do the
most good. The matter create,! quite a
sensation. It was never shown, however,
that any of the money reached Major
Du vis and as General I.udlow stood by
him In the matter nothing came of the
charge*.
One of Maj Davis' favorite schemes was
I an electroione plant by which sea water
iwas to lie treated with electricity and
j through the sltcorlysls thus Induced was
I to In- converted Into electroione. which
was to be used In washing down the walls
jof house* and Infected places generally.
! Electroione was to be the great agent by
which yellow fever was to be driven from
' It* lair. Th- plant was completed at a
i cost of ISO.OfiC to the government, ami the
manufacture of electroione begun There
was also a royalty of *0 much per gallon
to the patentee .# the electroione system
It U evident that electroione has failed
to accomplish Ihe groat things expected
of It A private letter received by Dr.
Brunner from a friend In Havana says
that they are having a lively time with
yellow fever, and that the "electroione did
not quite do the business "
The Marine Hospital Service ha* a rep
resentative al Havana, but he seems lo
• lie without the authority to exercise an
' intelligent supervision of the city's sani
tary arrangement* or to take effective
measures against the disease. Al any rate
the army regime has proved a failure
from a sanitary standpoint, ami H.uma
Is as much a danger spjt to the Soutn. in
ports as It ever was.
The epidemic at Havana does not threat
en Savannah, particularly at thla season.
