While this conversation was going

and began telling DIR. Wall he had

crowded around him shouting,
"TIigow HM ~ THE WATER,

which 20 cut away sufficient OF the
dock near this hotel to prevent persons
from reaching the latter.
The arrangements 10 insure the
carrying out Of Governor Flower'a
orders and protecting the hotel have
been lnmentably inadequate. At 1865
Lawyer Eugene Fish u Babylon,
counsel TO the islip Board Of Health,
reached here with u copy OF the In
junction granted by Justice Barnard.
His arrival was greeted with prolonged
cheers from the crowd ON the deck.
Everything IL IN readiness In tho

ON the "Cepheus" whenever they
land. A carload OF provisions has Just
