QUARANTINE RULES.
Released Immigrants WIN Bo Provided

Released Immigrants Miu 30 ProNuou
with "Bills OF Health"
New YoRK, Sept. lS.-seth Lowe has
secured on behalf OF the chamber Of
commerce the steamer Wieland, OF the
Hamburg line, for tho reception Of the
quarantine passengers. The Wieland
is now of quarantine. She arrived a
few days ago. All her passengers were
healthy.
A misapprehension seems to prevail
in many states that the quarantine ar
rangements, rs we'll ras immigration
matters, are under tho supervision of
the federal authorities at this port, and
that when an Immigrant is allowed to
leave he should be fortified with aclean
bill of health. This was the main
reason why tho several railroad and
steamboat lines discontinued carrying
immigrants. AS result Of the confer
ence the quarantine commissioners had
to-day with DIR. Wheeler, in future each
immigrant landed at Ellis Island will be
provided with card declaring that the
bearer has been sufficiently disinfected
and his baggage fumigated and is in
good health. These cards will be signed
by DIR. Wheeler, as surgeon OF tho
marine hospital service, and will be
worn as label pinned to their clothes.
A petition signed by many New York
ers headed by DR.. ROBERTSON, asking for
the remoyalS Sf Health Officer jenkins
and the appointment Of an advisory
board OF physicians, has not yet been
presented to Governor Flower.

New YoRK, Sept. 12.-when the Cor
bett train pulled into Wilmington the
throng was SO great that the train had
to come almost to a standstill to avoid
accident in the shape of running over a
lot people. By degrees they managed
to work their way up to the depot
where the crowd closed in on Corbetts
car until they were packed together
like sardines.
AtPhiladelphia, the throng was great
but fortunately. the bulk OF the people
were kept outside the iron fence. Cor
bett says the man above all others in
the world that he wants TO meet is
Charley Mitchell. Ho has made up mis-
mind to make Mitchell do moro fighting
and less talking.
Saturday, September n, has been left
open for Sullivan's benefit, ut which
Corbet offered in New Orleans to spar
four rounds. He has not received any
acceptance yet, further than dispatch
saying Mr.. Moran, Sullivan's manager,
would meet Mr.. Corbett today in New
York. 1t is his opinion, however, that
Sullivan will accept An immense
throng was gathered at the Jersey City
depot and it was with difficulty that the
police opened up way and got him on
the Debrosses street ferryboat. He has
n pressing invitation to coup to the
New York Athletic Club, but he said 1t
was his intention TO go directly TO his
own home, where he will remain until
it is time to go to Madison square. He
intends making Now York city his per
mnnent home.

PoTrsv1LIE, Pa, Sept. 1e.-The loco

on the Reading railroad system. Regu.
lar meetings were held on Sunday at
shamokin, Gordon and Tamaqua, whilo
here at Pottsville an impromptu picnic

to secure tho opinion OF the men as to
what the rank and file think is the best
to be done to combat the Readings de-
clared war against all labor organiza-
tions.
A local official says that in the event
OF strike the railroad has several hun
dred employees ready hereabouts who
will gladly take charge OF engines and
telegraph officea. 1t is noticeable that
the principal telegraph Offices are all

REpETITIoN on HISTORY.
How tho station Islanders Burned the
Quarantine Hospitals in 1858.

How tho Staten lalnndors burned the
Quarantine Hospitals in 1858.
New YoRK, September 12,-The oppo-
sition OF the Fire Island clam diggers to
the landing there of the unfortunate
passengers OF the Normannia is repe-
tition of the attitude assumed by the
Staten Islanders many years ago.
When the plague was threatened in
1858, the islanders organized q band
called Sepoys. Its members swore to
raze tho quarantine buildings, which
were then on heisland near Tompkins-
VILE On September l, 1858, they car
ried their threat into execution.
Masked and otherwise disguised, and
under the cover OF night, the Sepoys
scaled the quarantine enclosure and
fred the building.
1t was a brutal act, for the hospital
contained many helpless inmates, some
OF whom were at the point OF death.
Many were carried out by rescuers.
One person was burned to death. The
New York militia was ordered to the
scene and tho tifty-gun frigate Sabine
went down the bay, anchored off
Tompkinsville and threatened to bonn
bardthe town. Driven from Tompkins-
vile, the authorities removed the quar-
antine hospital to seguine's Point, the
southwesterly extremity OF Staten Is
land. Temporary hospitals and out
buildings were erected there, but be
fore the place could be put in order the
sepoys again assumed their DISCUSSES,
lighted their torches and fred that
place also.

New YoRK, Sept. 12.-New Workers
this morning were auxiously waiting
for news from Fire Island and the
Lower Bay, fearing that the day would
witness another struggle between the
state troops and the rioters. When
telegraphic communication was cut off
last night between Babylon and Islip,
L. L, it was announced that with the
rising of to-day's sun mob of from 100
to 600 men OF the neighborhood of Fire
Island would muster from all parts Of
the Great South Bay and probably
make descent upon Fire Island, with
the intention OF burning the Surf hotel
and its adjacent thirteen cottages to
the ground, in order to prevent those
buildings from being used to shelter
quarantined saloon passengers Of the
Normannia.
The steamer Cepheus, with the sec
ond class cabin passengers OF tho
steamer Normannia, this morning went
to Lower Quarantine to take the first
cabin passengers, who were aboard the
Stonington, and proceed to Fire Island.
The report that the persons on board
the Stonington had nothing to eat is
erroneous. There were plenty Of eat
ables on board, but the culinary de.
partment was out OF order. DR.. Jen-.
kins at 1880 o'clock announced that he
had fifty armed deputies at Fire Island,
scattered among the armed mob from
Islip, ready to act in case Of an out
break.

ruE GovERNoR ARRIvEs,

Governor Flower arrived at the Wind
sor Hotel at $50 o'clock this morning.
Immediately on arriving he began his
investigation OF the cholera troubles,
particularly the situation at Fire Island.
The Governor said he anticipated no
further trouble from Fire Island. The
state, he said, would take possession at
once, and he was prepared to take any
steps, no matter how stringent, to keep
the cholera away from New York city.
A dispatch from Babylon, L. l., said;
This village is in state of the widest
confusion. Angry men Rre at every
corner uttering deep threats against tho
proposed invasion from the cholera
laden Normannia and Rugia. 1t is quite
evident that the residents are deter
mined to prevent by extreme measures
the landing OF the Cepheus. This morn
ing Judge Wilmot Smith left for Brook
lyn to apply to Judge Barnard, OF the
supreme court, for an injunction re-
straining the passengers from landing.
Ex- Proprietor Sammis, OF the Surf hotel,
left for New York on the 8 o'clock
train, and had to be escorted to the
railroad depot by body guard, the
mob being determined to make an ex-
