The San Francisco call., 1904-02-13

The army transport Logan, Captain
Stinson in command, arrived yesterday
from the Philippines and instead of be-
ing held or even delayed in quarantine,
as had been anticipated, was given rec
ord dispatch by the Federal health Off
Gals. Two days after the Logan left
Nagasaki a mild case of smallpox de-
veloped. the victim being an enlisted
man. He was convalescent when the
transport reached Honolulu, where the
invalid was sent ashore. That this case
of sickness did not result in the yes
sells being delayed in quarantine was
due to the action taken by Captain w.
T. Davis, the transport surgeon, who
was highly complimented by DR.. Cum
mings on the good judgment he had
shown.
When he discovered the case DR.. Da-
Wis isolated the patient and the hos
pital. disinfected the troop deck, fumi-
gated bedding and hospital with for
maline gas and vaccinated everybody
on board. Those that had been exposed
TO the infection were inspected twice
DIR. Davis report satisfied the quaran-
tine officials that not only was there no
danger Of smallpox, but that the trans
port surgeons campaign of disinfec-
tion had been so thorough that if any
germs had survived they were Of kind
not yet classified.
The Logan had fine weather until
within sight of port. She was inside
the FaraIlones early Thursday night,
but the weather setting in thick and
the storm increasing, Captain Stinson
ran for the open sea and remained
where he had plenty of room until day
light rendered navigation less risky.
In spite Of the fact that she has seen
more constant service than other trans
ports. the Logan reached port looking
clean as when she sailed and is ready,
# again necessary, TO recross the Pacific
as soon as she can be loaded with
stores.
