THE PEST HOUSE WELL FILLED.
DR.. Drummer is now OBTAINING nine poo
pie at the pest house, of whom one is a
woman, besides six at SOuthOyer About
fifteen people from Brunswick were stop
ped az SouthOver on last nights trains.
The majority OF them decided 20 go else
where, and only two or three remained al
SOutEOver There are now two parties
waiting at SoUJhoyer who have tickets
north via the Ocean Steamship Company,
but who were refused entrance to the
city. They have not yet decided what
they win do. An old box car furnishes
the sleeping accommodation for those de-
tanned at Southover.
DR. +. 7. Lincoln volunteered his ser
vices yesterday to the government as a
physician at any point at which he might
be needed in the yellow fever district.
DR.. Drummer notified the surgeon general
of the offer, and DR. Lincoln will await
the orders of the surgeOn-general. DIR.
Lincoln had the yellow fever in Savan-
nah i'm 1876, and has had experience in
treating it since. He is well known as a
competent physician and very popular
one as well
DR.. J. G.. Keller stated to
DIR. Drummer last night that he
was ready TO 60 into the infected district
if needed
Dr. B. F. Sheftau also said that he
would volunteer his services if the fever
became epidemic al Brunswick.
DIR. Sheftall has served in every yellow
fever epidemic in this section since 1876,
and would be a most valuable man.
DR.. Drummer said that the bark Mexico,
which has been at quarantine for several
days, had not been ordered to Sapelo rs
reported, but is still at quarantine.
There is nothing suspicious about the
bark and no reason why she should be
sent to quarantine.
HARD LINE TO PASS.
The quarantine lines will be even
more strictly maintained than they have
been. No inspection Of passengers is
made on the South Bound railroad, but
on the Central and Savannah, Florida
and Western, particularly the latter, the
strictest inspection is made and all sus-
picious persons are shut out from the
city, The inspectors board the
savannah, Florida and Western
trains at Walthourville and come
through to Southover. Two pas
sengers were stopped there last
night. One of them held a certificate
from the president of the board of health
ofTampa that he had not been in any in
fected place, but in view Of the exciting
state of affairs at Tampa he was refused
entrance to the city. The other passen-
ger had no certificate, but claimed to
have boarded the train at Walthourvile.
He was sent on north.
MUST SHOW CERTIFICATES.
All passengers are required to show
railroad agents certificates that they left
the point from which their tickets were
issued, on the date of issue OF the ticket.
The date stamped on the ticket must cor
respond with the date stamped on the
certificate A gentleman who arrived
from Sanford last night said there is no
use trying to run the Georgia quarantine.
There is no difficulty he said, getting
around in Florida, but the quarantine
this side of the Florida line is like dead
line TO pass Every one must have the
necessary evidence of not having been in
any locality infected with yellow fever
within the ten days limit or he cannot
get through. The round about
way which passengers from
the infected territory would
have to go to reach Savannah by the
South Bound made it unnecessary, in the
opinion of the health authorities, to place
Inspectors on its trains. About the only
way to get in from that direction would
be through Atlanta and Spartan burg or
Columbus, which is too long trip to take.
