The problem OF quarantine station
on the Delaware River that will act as
safeguard for the ports of Philadel-
phia and Chester, which has been
worrying the Legislature since the
session OF 1891. promises to come up
agaiu this year. This time tho legis.
lators will have q different resolution
presented to them for consideration.
Instead OF the vexatiops question of
a site for the station, this timo the
proposition will ask for the abolish.
ment oil the State Quarantine.
/. When the last session OF the Legis-
Iature convencd majority oil this
committee reported In favor of Bonn :
bny Hook as the proper place Tor the
quarantine. A minority report. how
o Fer. advocated Reedy Island. A bit.
ter light began at Harrisburg. and
while II was going on 1t became evil
dent that Delaware and New Jersey
would not give tho proper support to
the Joint scheme.
so the alliance Idea was abandon ed
and 1t was finally decided to place
both the State and National stations
ON Reedy Island. 1t was also decided
that the Lazaretto must bs moved
from its present location by 1895.
The National Government has since
established its station on Reedy Island
and tho disposition OF the State prop
erty will come up again for consldera-
tion. According to the scheme now In
view the State Quarantine will be
set aside altogether. There Is on Q
plan talked Of, which provides for a
State appropriation to the national
station. This. however. 10 not likely
10 be carried out as tho United States
would hardly accept State aid.
Another plan provides that the
State physician shalt accompany the
national medical examiner on his In
specting tours. The idea is believed
Ia be one that will meet with approval,
as 1t Will do away with much delay In
shipping. Some little opposition is
likely to crop out Ia tho Maritime Ex-
change. however, as that body wants
boarding station at 1iuicum Island

nunication up the river.
