CHARLESTON MAY QUARANTINE ATLANTA.
Charleston, s. c., Aug 2l.--The death
of Surgeon Branham at Brunswick and
the arrival here of two men who regis
teren at the hotel from Atlanta,
but who, it seems, came from Brunswick, .
has caused some feeling here, and 10 Is
not improbable that steps may be taken
to quarantine Atlanta. 1t is said here
that Atlanta does not quarantine any in
fected ports, and by this means renders
the quarantine in force here and at other
cities of no effect; that there is nothing
TO prevent refugees from Brunswick or
any other infected cities going to Atlanta,
and coming thence TO any other city in
this state.
WILL BE ASKED TO CONSIDER OTHERS.
The matter will probably be considered
by the board of health Should the fever
develop itself in the suspected ports the
Atlanta authorities will be asked to- en-
force such sanitary regulations as will
protect other cities not so liberal or so
fortunate as to climatic influences as is
the Gate City.

mending the establishment Of a detention
