Rigorous Measures to Prevent the
Bringing of Contagion to Our Shores.

WASHINGTON, March SIN accordance
with the new quarantine law Secretary OF
the Treasury Foster has issued a circular
ofinstructions addressed to officers charged
with its execution giving the sanitary reg
uLltions to be enforced at the port Of de-
parture and to be observed on the vessel
during the voyage, and also embracing the
rules governing the national quarantine
stations in the United States.
Every vessel, passenger or freight, bound
for the United States must carry pre-.
scribed bill of health, givep either by the
United States consul or medical officer de
tailed by the president at the port of de
parture In case the vessel sails from an
infected port, an inspection must preeede
the granting of the bill of health, and an
inspection is required in the case of every
passenger vessel sailing from any port in
Europe. Asia, Africa. Central or South
America, Mexico and West Indies, whether
said port is infected or not. The inspec-
tion must be made within six hours imlne.
diately preceding the departure Of the YES
sci, according to methods prescribed. Dur
ing the prevalence of an epidemic rags
and similar articles are not to be shipped
at all, nor within thirty days after the
port has been officially declared TO be free
from the epidemic.
A vessel arriving at any United States
port with cases of contagion aboard shall
be detained for a period ranging from
forty five days to twenty days, the lattel
only where typhus fever prevails. The
rules for quarantine are quite rigorous
and comprehensive.

The Last of the Appropriation Bills
Acted Upon.

WASHINGTON, March 3.-The galleries OF
the senate were crowded with Visitors all
day yesterday but there was very little in
the proceedings that could interest them.
The postoffice appropriation bill, which had
been partly considered on Wednesday, was
completed, the paragraph in relation to
the southern fast mail having been modi.
fed so as to leave the whole question to
the discretion of the postmaster general.
The postof1ice appropriation hill was fol-
lowed by the Indian appropriation bill
This latter contained an amendment re-
ported from the committee on appropria
tions appropriating g., ,5o0,O 900 TO pay the
Cherokees for the lands ceded by them in
the Indian Territory lying between Okla
homa and Kansas The amendment pro
voked some discussion, but was eventually
agreed to. Then the deficiency bill (the
last of the appropriation bills was acted
upon. Both the McGarrahan and the
New York bridge bills were crowded out
by the appropriation bills.
The sundry civil appropriation bill con-
sumed the time OF the house. There was
fight over the New York custom house
provision and over the Worlds Columbian
exposition amendment. There was great
confusion, the speaker being obliged ovel
and over again to appeal to IN nembers to
preserve order and directing the occupants
of the galleries to do so. This request and
direction were equally unavailing. There
was constant din, and few members
who were removed more than D souple OF
feet from the disputnnts could not hear a
word of what was uttered.
Both houses remained in session till the
early hours OF this morning, the house ad
journing at l2. so and the senate at l.30.

MINORITY REPORTS.
Varying Views of Committeeman on the
Whisky Trust

WASHINGTON, March 8.-Two minority
reports have been filed on the whisky
trust Investigation, Messrs. Buchanan, OF
New Jersey and Broderick, Of Kansas,
making one and Mr.. Ray, Of New York.
the other.
The former state that they do not agree
with that part of the report OF the ma
jority which refers to and discusses the
effect of tariff legislation. No special in
quiry was made on this line, and on one
example, If true, is insufficient to establish
general and unvarying result. There is
not line of testimony to show that the
domestic facilities are not ample Tor the
production of all the unadulerated product
needed, ana IL Is a matter of common
knowledge that imported goods are very
often grossly adulterated,
Mr.. Ray fully concurs with this report,
and adds that in his Judgment the manu-.
facture and sale of imitation and adulter-
ated liquors Of all kinds, especially those
containing poisonous compounds and drugs
deetrious to health, can by law be made n
criminal ofrense, punishable by such PEN
alties as to put an end to the practice.
Such a high tax can be imposed on all
adulternted and imitation products as will
make their sale impracticable. lie cannot
consent to any proposition which will In
crease the importation Of alcoholic liquors,
cheaper the price of such articles and
largely decrease our revenue and make in
creased taxation in other directions abso'
lutely necessary He would, if practicable
abolish all tax on alcohol used for medi-
cinal purposes and in the arts and sciences

Number Seriously Injured.
BAY CITY. Mich, March s.-What had
been looked forward to as one Of the pleas
ATTEST days in the history of F. A. Wheeler
e. Co. 3 ship yard at West Bay City yester-
day terminated in most frightful acci-
dent. The company was to lay the keel of
the Centuran, the one hundredth boat
-puilt by them. 1t was an event of more
than ordinary Importance, drawing people
from all over the Saginaw valley.
When the timbers had been placed and
the speeches and presentation of q silver
ink service to the company had been made,
the vast throng adjourned to the wood
working yard where No. SO, a large wooden
schooner, was to be launched. The steam
barge Kittie NJ Forbes lay frozen In the
ice on the north side of the slip in which
the ice had been broken before the launch.
Hundreds Of boys and many men flocked
to the steamer and climbed to her hurri-
cane deck They were warned of their
danger and told that the swell from the
schooner when launched would knock
them Off, but many remained, the view
being very good from that point.
When all was ready at 4:45 o'clock, and
the last hawser cut, the schooner started
slowly for the water. Then with a rush
she plunged into the icy slip and an i'm
mense wave forced the ice and steamer
Forbes in the air The Forbes rolled until
half over, and then the crowd on shore
saw sight which chilled them. Those
who had remained on the upper deck were
clinging ON for life if they could find pro-
jections, while less fortunate ones were
flying headlong toward the water.
Fully thirty were thrown overheard, and
in an instant the black forms rose to the
surface between the two boats and in the
field of broken ice. How many are lost
has not been ascertained, but George Haw.

Pope Leo's Birthday.

ROME, March 3,--Yesterday was the
birthday of Pope Leo, who was born
March 9, 1910. The cardinals now in Rome
made visit of congratulation to his
holiness who received them in the throne
room Of the vatican. In replying to an
address of the cardinals Pope Leo ex-
pressed gratitude to God for having per-
mitted him to serve the church for so
many years. He said that the enthusiasm
attending the Jubilee had added lustre and
glory to the church. Amidst many dis
illusions and profound social and political
upheayals, that enthusiasm showed that
the instinct Of common salvation impelled
people to cling closer TO the bosom Of the
church in which salvation was found,
