Because ola Case Aboard Supposed 10
be Yellow Fever
New York, September 21.-The United
States transport Buford, which was
about to sail today, was detained in
her dock by the quarantine authorities
for a second disinfection and will sail
tomorrow. Health Officer Doty ex-
planned this action by saying:
"One of the soldiers who arrived from
Havana on the Buford is in our hospital
at Swinburne island and has developed
suspicious symptoms today, which I
to be yellow fever. When the Buford
appeared on the 18th instant, a number
of convalscent soldiers were among her
complement Of passengers. The steam
er, according to our usual custom, was
detained until the usual five days pc
riod since her departure from Havana.
On the 18th the transport, afte a
thorough disinfection, was released.
Twenty-six of the convalscents were
transferred by the quartermaster de-
partment by the post hospital at Fort
WadsWorth. Before the release of the
Buford an inspection of all on board
was made. Two soldiers who had been
ailing for a day or two showed high
temperatures. These two were sent to
~SWinburne island for observation. One
has developed unmistakable symptoms
of malaria. The other, Private Oswald,
of the First infantry, showed many
symptoms of yellow fever and I have
no doubt that before tomorrow morn
ing the disease will be fully developed.
Although the Buford had been disin-
fected before her release from quaran-
tine, I decided that as a measure of e
IRENE precaution I would have my men
go over the work again."
