On the Rugia the new cases are Gus
tav Wellschopper, Johan Pooratski and
Felona Kuneschin.
Eight persons, who were exposed to
the patients Of the same families, have
been removed to Swinburne island, and
isolated from observation.

steersge passenger, who was removed to

The cholera on board the Moravia has
been, to all appearances, stamped out.
sToKERs THE CHIEF SUFFERERS.
The stokers on the Normannia, this
morning seem to be the greater sufferers.
Eight Of the crew OF that vessel were
transferred, yesterday afternoon, to
Swinburne island. These men had only
the day before been taken back to the
snip after twelve hours stay on Hoff
man island, where they had been dis
infected with all possible thoroughness.
Along with 500 others, they were taken
back to the ship apparently in excellent
health. The doctors will not admit,
positively, that these eight patients
have cholera, nor will they deny it.
CAMP OF REFUGE.
DR.. Jenkins today accepted Sandy
Hook as cholera refuge for the cabin
passengers Of the pest ships. He hopes
to obtain permission to use Fire island
also.
DR.. Jenkins stated today that Sandy
Hook will be used for placing emigrants
on. He thought the old unused sheds
of the Central railroad of New Jersey
would be used, which could accommo-
date 500, and the same number of tents
could be used.
Secretary Foster says wealthy gen.
tleman has offered to undertake the con-
struction Of q camp, and meet all the
expense, taking his chances of getting
his money back for the parties liable
therefor.
The borough board of health has sent
from Atlantic Highlands protest to
Governor Abbott against the landing Of
passengers from the infected ships at
Sandy Hook. The borough has pro-
vided day and night water and land
patrol service to that end.
QUARTERS FOR CABIN PASSENGERS.
The steamboat Stonington has been
purchased by }. Pierpont Morgan for
the cabin passengers of the detained
steamers.
DR.. jenkins said he expected the
Gf0ninnfan damn avonyno NJ
early on the day after, when the cabin
passengers would be removed to her.
The New Hampshire, as soon as she is
ready, will be used for the cabin pas
sengers of the Rugia. The steerage
passengers will be removed to Hoffman
island.

The City Of New York and the Bonr-
gogne, have leit for New York. Chauncsy
M. Depew, and the wife and daughter OF
Secretary Foster, were taken off the City
of New York on the cutter Grant.
The steamer Elbe left quarantine at 8
O'Clock this afternoon. The Belgian
steamer Waesland, Captain Grant, from
Antwerp, which had been among the
quarantine fleet in the upper bay, was
released this evening, by order of the

Difficulty is experienced in obtaining
the necessary telegraph operators. Two

who is necessary to complete the corps,
was expected to volunteer for service to-
day. This done, complete returns from
the islands will come in at short inter-
walls for the information of the public.
A large store of gasoline for lighting the
offices; brandy, claret, alcohol and
other necessaries were taken down this
morning to quarantine by Commissioner
Allen.
A SPECIALISTS OPINION.
LILO 5aAithiy superintendent VI NOW
York has received dispatch from DR..
Seibert, who is in Berlin, on behalf of
the New York board of health. DR..
Seibert says:
Berlin steams all articles from Ham
burg one hour. The highest opinion is
that all the countries in Northern
Europe are infected, and new outbreaks
are expected. The new law will stop all
Russian emigration passing quarantine.
Months will be insufficient to stamp out
the disease, even under the most eff
cient methods. The best thing for you
in America, is to steam emigrant bag
gage and other articles for at least an
hour. They must be steamed singly, or
else emigration must be stopped. The
germs are everywhere; no port is safe" /"
CHOLERA IN MEXICO.
1t is reported at the Maritime ex-
change that cholera has appeared in
Mexico. A cablegram from Vera Cruz
has been received, stating that four
officers and two sailors of the British
steamship May, at that port, are sick
aboard the vessel.
