SAN DIEGO FEELS SAFE.
Dan DlEGO, aug. ZJ.-Cluarantlne Oil
Ger Mckay, in an interview in the ,Sate,
says: "The danger of cholera reaching
this port is very remote. There is danger
by the Pacific Mail steamers. But vessels
out from 150 to 300 days would have all
dead or convalescent, as the pest runs its
course in two to ten days. The danger is
from vessels thirty days only from in
tected ports or from passengers from the
same who come overland. San Diego's
quarantine station is across the bay on
the eastern shore point of Iona promon-
tory at the old landing of the packet.
ships. The buildings are to be begun in
few weeks, but tents would be used if
the pest comes. The long wharf for
quarantine landings was completed last
week by the sinking of two mushroom
iron anchors within the arms of the
wharf, weighing respectively 1000 and
$500 pounds. By them any ship could be
held to the wharf for fumigating. A
double warehouse covers the wharf for
disinfecting baggage, the mail" etc. DIR.
Mckay has been here four years. He SAYS
the first auaran tine case is yet to come.
Last year he inspected 202 foreign vessels
and over 5000 people.
