from Assistant Surgeon General Green.
leaf, stating that three bubonic cases
exist at Manila.
1t was suspected last week that the
disease had obtained a foothold in Ma.
Mia, but it was not until Colonel Green.
leafs report that the fact was estab.
lished. The first effect will probably
be to have quarantine laid upon all
shipping coming from Manila. The
town will be placed under the most
rigid sanitary regulations, and no doubt
the disease will Don be stamped out.

- Destroying Infected Buildings.

Another dispatch dated Jan. l says:
A portion Of the Infected district was
condemned and burned to the ground.
Three buildings and a large warehouse
was destroyed by fire. The future pol.
icy of the health authorities will be to
destroy all infected buildings. The
board of health here is severely crit.
cized by the two leading papers here
The Star and The Advertiser. In short
these journals claim that the members
of the health board appear to be in.
competent and therefore are incapable
of handling the present trouble. There
is still a feeling of donbt as to the ma.
ture of the disease. The majority of
intelligent people do not consider it
plague. But the fact remains that the
victims are stricken and die very sud-
denly. If the trouble is moi plague, it
is something akin to it. The presence
of the plague in this city Is commenc-
ing to worry the sugar men. They have
a idea that Hawaiian sugar may be
refused at United States ports if shipped
from Honolulu. To get around this
difficulty, the new crop may be shipped
from ports outside of Honolulu. Hon
olulu being the only infected port, it is
believed that the federal authorities
will agree to this plan and allow the
marketing of the 1899 crop.
+ Seventeen Known Cases.
There have been II known cases of
bubonic plague in Honolulu to date.
There have been a number of other
deaths which were probably death from
plague, but the board of health has not
officially so declared them. Passenger
traffic between the islands is practically
at a standstill. The inter-island steam
ship companies refuse to take passen-
gers OF account of the onerous quaran-
tine conditions imposed. Fumigated
freight is accepted, but is loaded and
discharged from lighters away from the
wharves.
The America Maru, which arrived
here from San Francisco on Dec. q, dis.
charged her passengers and freight by
means of lighters.
The transport Grant with the Forty
eighth infantry arrived a few hours
after the America Maru. Her COM
mander refused to come into the har-
Dor or have anything but the barest
communication with the pilots and port
officials and started for Manila after a
stop of not than an aour.

Monday.
Southport, n. c., July q, 1900.

Southport, n. T., July Il, lSVV.
1t is with many misgivings that the
writer undertakes to furnish this re-
cord of our camp doings after our
faithful, bright, pointed an doriginal
correspondent, &C. C. L." has left us.
We greatly enjoyed the familiar faces
of many of our friends from home who
visited us yesterday. They brought a
string band with them and thus en-
abled us to give a grand ball last
night, complimentai to Southport'S
fairest daughters, and their names are
legion and they were there in all their
beauty and gracefulness. The affair
was pronounced by all as one of the
grandest ever given in this beautiful
town. There were fifty couples pres
ent. Through the kindness of Capt.
Tom Morse we went % miles to sea
and paid a visit to the lightship. And
what we did for the fishes of the sea
was equal to a Christmas dinner.
We have greatly felt the loss of our
old reliable and faithful First Lieuten-
ant Loughlin and Second Sergeant
Britain, who were unable to be with
us on account of business. However,
too much credit cannot be given our
new officers, Capts. Price, and Presson
also Adjutant Dosher and Sergeant
Major Tyler for the manner in
which they have drilled and con-
Quoted their part of our duties. Our
guard mount and dress parades
have been especially satisfactory. We
have been substantially remembered
by one of our Wilmington friends since
our arrival in camp. The interest and
appreciation shown us by the business
men and our employers are the most
encouraging features of our organiZa-
ton and it is our one desire to return
to our work better fitted by reason OF
this encampment and trust that oul
work during the coming year viii be
our best way of showing our apprecia-
ton.
