BRUNswIoK's EPIDEMIC.
The Experts Believe They Can Conhne
the Fever to That City.

Washington, Sept 19-The situation at
Brunswick, Ga, is serious, and the eX-
perts of the marine hospital service, who
have investigated the condition of the
city. agree that the pest has come to stay
until frost stamps it out. In view of the
rapid spread of the fever, physicians will
do well if they prevent its spread to other
southern cities. Yesterday morning
Surgeon General Wyman telegraphed
Surgeon Murray, who is in charge at
Brunswick, for full details of the situ-
alton, and late last night received q full
response TO his inquiry. Surgeon Muir
ray, after thorough inspection, reports
twenty cases under treatment and one
death yesterday.
NO VOLUNTEERS WANTED NOW.
There is, he says, no need of physicians
until they are asked for, and adds that
volunteers will not be welcome. No
nurses are wanted at present beyond
those at the disposal Of the doctors and
now on the ground.
Surgeon Murray further states that the
fever pervades the entire city, and the
most favorable outlook that he can see
indicates six weeks siege, which will
carry it almost to the time when the first
frost may be expected. Arrangements
have been made for the opening of local
hospital, and all is complete at the deten-
tion camp at Waynesville.
NO PANIC IN THE CITY.
The citizens Of Brunswick do not ap-
apear to be panic-stricken, but meet the
calamity with fortitude and patience,
and will care for the destitute through
private subscriptions.
The precautions that have been taken
lead the sanitary experts to believe that
they can confine the fever to the stricken
city. The detention camp will accommo-
date 300 persons, and everyone desiring
to leave the city will be required to re-
main there until the period of infection
has passed.
LAND AND WATER GUARDS.
A strict Gordon, on land has been thrown
around the entire infected district and a
complete water guard established. Acting
Assistant Surgeon Horsey, now at Fer
nandina, has been put in charge OF the
Cumberland river patrol tO.prevent the es-
cape of refugees into Florida.

a Comfortable Place.


Waycross, Ga, Sept. l9.-Several Bruins
wick refugees stopped at Camp Haines
last night They will be detained ten
days. John Hogan of this place is in
charge of the disinfection of mails. Mr..
Hogan, it is said, was in charge of the

camp of detention every day. No per-
sons can buy a ticket from Brunswick

are detained at the camp and after ten

only about fifteen refugees there. A
strict quarantine is in effect here against

gees. A number of refugees are expected
TO arrive from Brunswick tonight. The
camp is now in charge ofPassed Assistant
Surgeon Geddings. The tents are pro-
vided with comfortable beds and such
furniture as is usually found in detention
camps. Life at the camp will not neces-
sarlybecome monotonous. There are walks
and drives in the vicinity. The Rumford
SULPHUR springs within two hundred
yards of the camp will be a
elightful retreat. The source
Of Turtle river is Just
beyond the camp few miles. The
stream passes the foot of the hill on
which the camp Is situated and flows
swiftly down TO the coast, broadening in
its course, until at Brunswick it becomes
large river. Within half mile Of the
camp is the Rumford mansion, where
some twenty people from Brunswick
found a delightful place of refuge at the
first outbreak of yellow fever. 1t is sur
rounded by many acres Of beautiful shade
trees, which were planted by the Rum
fords. 1t is situated on a beautiful hill
and can be plainly seen from the train.
