Clerk Ward-The Central Railroad
Issues Explicit Instructions TO It's
Patrons of savannah's Quarantine
Regulations.
Quarantine was little livelier yester-
day than usual. Inspector Lufburrow
met the hardest case he has yet tackled,
and was baked for the first time since
assuming his duties as quarantine in
spector
He left the offender to DR.. Drummer, who
took prompt measures, the result of which
was that he will answer TO the recorder
tomorrow morning for violating the
quarantine regulations.
DR. Wilson, it is said, has been issuing
health certificates to his friends for their
convenience in passing the quarantine.
This is in violation of the
health officers rules, as the
inspectors are instructed that
the only person in Savannah who is
authorized to issue health certificates is
the health officer, and certificates issued
by other physicians in Savannah are
worthless.
HE CAME IN ANYHOW.
DR. Wilson issued a certificate to his
friend, DR. Cohen, which the latter pre-
senJed to the inspector on the Central
Railroad train yesterday, when returning
from trip uu the road
The inspector followed his instructions,
and refused to accept the certificate. DR..
Cohen announced his intention of coming
into Savannah anyway.
The inspector ordered him to leave
the train, which he refused to
do. AS DR., Cohen was physically
his superior, Inspector Lufburrow did
not undertake the job of putting him off
the train, but allowed him to come on to
Savannah. The matter was reported to
DIR. Drummer Immediately upon the ar
rival of the train and he ordered DIR
Cohen's arrest. The arrest was made
and DR.. Cohen was sent to the barracks,
where he gave bond to appear in the police
court tomorrow.
WANTED NO EXPLANATIONS.
DR.. Drummer was seen by a MORNING
News reporter last night, and asked the
particulars of the case, but he declined
TO give any information This is the
most interesting case of the kind since
The quarantine was instituted.

Surgeon Carter, who has charge of the
Marine Hospital service quarantine in this
section, was in Savannah yesterday on
an important errand.
1t was to secure warrant for the ar
rest of G. p. Ward, the young drug clerk
who skipped from Jesup last week. 1t
was thought at first that Ward had
started for Savannah, and the authorities
were notified to look out for him,
DIR. Carter afterwards located Ward in
Tattnall county, and came to Savannah
to secure warrant for his arrest. The
warrant was sworn out before the United
States commissioner and was placed in the
hands of special officer. DR. Carter
left for Reidsville last night with the
officer Ward will be arrested and taken
back to Jesup DIR. Carter is determined
that the quarantine shall be strictly
observed.
