yellow Fever ON Shipboard.
The three masted schooner w. f. Gushing of
| Camden, N. T., which arrived here from Sa-
vannah the 4th inst, has been ordered to lower
quarantine 1t is alleged that the master,
Capt Cramer, and one of the men were affect
ed with symptoms of yellow fever on the voy-
age, but recovered sufficiently when quarantine
was reached to make the report that there was
no sickness aboard. 1t is further alleged a
Quarantine officer boarded the Gushing and
made superficial examination and took the
captains word as to the condition of the crew
and then allowed the vessel to continue her
trip up the bay without the usual quarantine
detention in cases of vessels from ports affected
with an epidemic. Before she reached her
moOrings at Fortietb street, New York, the
sailors went ashore. Among them was Mark
Hall, who three days afterwards was stricken
| down at 81 Market street with yellow fever.
| The New York authorities learned the Cush-
| ing had discharged portion of her cargo at
| 40th street and then dropped down the river
to Roberts stores, Brooklyn. The fact was
communicated to the health authorities of
Brooklyn with the suggestion that as the germs
of yellow fever were probably contained in the
hold she be despatched to quarantine. This
was done as quickly as possible, but the vessel
was not found till Tuesday afternoon at the
foot of 20th street. Capt. Cramer was disposed
to resist, but fiualy yielded and the vessel was
towed down the bay.
