that upon the suggestion Of Senator Miller, and in
view of the decision of Judge Blatchtord against

the bill pending in Congress to authorize the return
of any surplus money received from the steamship
companies The counsel of the Board explained
that thCro was o strong probability OF the bill

tiOn that the National Board OF Health would soon
make strong recommendations in taVor OF n Ma
t)nal inspection law. The National Board had now
n man at Port Huron, Mich, charged with the duty
of inspecting immigrants land ing there. The feel
ing IN Illinois and Michigan III WOW OF the great
spread OF smallpox, was strongly IN favor oil the
ms ecton of immigrants landing at various ports.
The suggestion was adopted.
Upon the motion of Mr.. Ulrich, committee OF
three was appointed to make "A special Application
to the Legislature for early consideration OF the
bill to appropriate S25O,OO0 to support immgra-
ton during the next year. Con missioner Stephen
