YELLOW FEVER IN BROOKLYN.
How the Disease Originated on Board the
Vermont ut the Navy Yard.

WASHINGTON July 20.-Thc report of the
Board Of Medical Officers Of the Navy desig-
mated to Investigate the causes OF the appear
ance OF yellow fever on board tho Vermont at
the Brooklyn Navy Yard. was received at the
Navy Department to-day. The board Is OF the
opinion that it originated from the ballast Of
the bark Juniata Clara. which left Havana on
Mayl. This ballast, quarry clippings and sand.
was deposited on the wharf on either side II
the Vermont. and about 100 yards distant from
her. 1t contained the germ of the disease.
which was aggravated into the fever by tho
excessive heat. such precautions have boon
taken thnt the spread of the fever will most Like
ly hc checked.
Reports received by Surgeon General Wood
worth OF the Marine Hospital Service show that
during the week ending July there were
nincty-thrco deaths from yellow fever at Ha-
yana and six from small uoX-a largo increase
in the former and a corresponding decrease in
the latter disease. AdNices from MatanIas
Cuba, show an increase Of yellow fever in that
place. II is reported 10 have spread to nearly
all the vessels in the Port, Though but few
deaths have occurred At Key West there had
been W 70 the 10th inst. tive cases Of yellow
fever. The first three cases were in the ship
ping from Havana and the last two not con-
ncctol with the shipping. The city IS healthy,
and there arc no fears of an epidemic.
