The State board Of health today ca
tablished a quarantine against railway
lines entering the State. Unless the
cholera scare becomes more pronounced
the regulations will require only rigid
inspection ofall passengers and baggage
entering the STATE, particularly from
New York, and will interfere but
SLIGHTLY with travel and traffic.
The State board OF health after writ

and quarantine of railroads entering the
State, decided to postpone its opera tion
until further developments in the sltua-
ton. The document was sent to Cover
nor Tillman for his signature, but it is
understood that the executive raised
objections and induced the health autho-
rites to postpone their action.
