BOMBAY HOOK THE CHOICE.

That is the Place Proposed for Quaran-
tine station-Its Advantages Explained :
The reports of the Quarantine Station
Commission of Pennsylvania, which
have been fled with Governor Pattison
for transmission to the Legislature,
were made known in Philadelphia yester-
day.
- Bombay Hook Island is regarded by the
majority of the commission as the most
available site for a quarantine station,
and comments are also made on the adap-
liability of Pea Patch, or Reedy Island
A suggestion that the station be kept on
Tinicum Island, the present location, was
made by one member.
As compared with Pea Patch. Re edv
Island is declared to have the advantages
of decidedly greater room in the ship
channel; of being located IN a less
populous portion of the territory. the
only settlement of Importance being
Port Penn, on the Delaware side, about
three quarters of a mile from the centre
of Reedy Island, and also of being farther
down toward the salt water. But at no
great distance from Reedy Island is

Hook Island, in Duck Creek
township, Kent county Del. 1t is
about seven miles long, varying in width
from mile to much less, separated from
the mainland by narrow stream and
considerable marsh. It includes about
5000 acres Of which about one-third is

The majority report suggests the feas
ibility Of combining at Bombay Hook the
entire quarantine service for Pennsyl
vania, New Jersey and Delaware.

Mr.. Huggard said that If the ob

Reedy Island the next desirable place
