Austin. Texas, June S.--State Health Of
hcer Blunt was notified this morning that
all New Orleans mail for Texas is being
held and allowed to accumulate in that
city because of the existence OF the quar-
antine. The postoifice authorities refuse
to have it fumigated on the ground that
to do so would cause unnecessary expense
in view of the fact that the marine hospital
inspectors have reported that conditions at
New Orleans do not Justify a quarantine
In view OF this complication the governor
wired Surgeon General Wyman to request
the postofiice authorities to have the New
Orleans mail fumigated as private but re-
liable information justified the doubling
of the official reports of the New Orleans
situation. lie also, in addition, assured
DR.. Wyman that II no new cases should
develop the quarantine would be raised siS
