NOTHING NEW AT MOBILE.

Advertiser Bureau,
 * Mobile. Aug. l.
 So far as the city of Mobile Is con- cerned no one can notice any percepti- ble change in business conditions. While Hattiesburg and Laurel. Miss, have placed a ban on Mobile the run ming of trains of the Mobile. Jackson and Kansas City Railroad have not been interfered with. Quarantine of- ficers go and come on all passenger trains on the road, as well as on the others, and freight traffic has been lit- tie diminished.
 While the people here watch the bull letin boards and newspapers for fever information, very little talk of its reaching Mobile Is heard. The quar- antine officials are awake and watchful and every train is carefully scrutinized and patrolled. The health of the city continues good
 A called meeting of the Quarantine Board of Mobile Bay was held this afternoon, with the following members present: President, pr. Rhett Goode: W. H. Holcombe, Mayor Lyons. Charles H. Brown. Judge J. H. H. Smith. pr. Joseph Hall, the last two representa- tives from Baldwin County. Present missioner o. k. McMillan and Assistant Health Officer J. C. Mcleod, both of Baldwin. The meeting was called at the request of tho Baldwin representa- tives on the board and the delegates from that county who desired to know the status of the methods obtaining in the matter of handling fruit from the tropics and danger therefrom; also to know what protection Baldwin County was getting in the bay from vessels coming in from infected ports and places. .:. .
 The regulations in vogue relative to bringing in fruit steamers were ex- plained, as were the methods adopted for quarantine restrictions in the bay and In Grants Pass. It was shown to the satisfaction of the representatives and delegates from Baldwin that every possible precaution was being taken to protect not only Mobile County, but Baldwin County and all the State. The representatives returned home this afternoon well satisfied with the infor- nation.

pr. Egan MisQuoted.

Memphis, Tenn, Aug. 1.-Dr. James A. Egan, Secretary of the State Board of Health of Illinois, who was in Mem phis today in conference with J. A. All bright, Secretary of the State Board of Health, and Health Commissioner Heber Jones relative to the yellow fever situa- tion in the South and the action to be of the disease to that State, said before departing for Cairo tonight:
 T find that I have been misquoted in a number of newspapers relative to the attitude of Illinois in regard to the present prevalence of yellow fever. l have never said, nor was 1t the inten- tion of the Illinois State Board of Health, that the State of Illinois should be closed to the yellow fever refugees of the South. There are many sections of the State to which persons from the South are perfectly welcome. In my interview at Cairo I merely said that neither Cairo nor any other city in the southern portion of the State should be the place of concentration of large numbers of refugees from the South- ern States.
 Train inspection service at Cairo will be begun at once, but thcre Is no intention at this time to institute quar- antine or to impose unnecessary hard ships upon the travelling public who travel with a fair consideration for the health and safety of the State at large To be sure, those persons who seem of danger to the people of the State will be denied admission to Illinois, but that Illinois will deny admission to all per sons from the South Is an idea which had not intended and do not intend to gain general circulation"

SHREVEPORT SCARED.
Travelling Man With Yellow Fever mt Detention Cansp.

Shreveport, La, August 1-Barney Tracey, a travelling man of Chicago, is in the detention camp just outside the corporate limits of this city suffer- ing from yellow fever. There are no other cases in the detention camp nor any case in the city. Tracey has been isolated since his arrival here Sunday and the health authorities are confi- dent that this case will be confined to this one person. The infection has been traced directly to New Orleans. although Tracey spent but few hours in that city.
 When the existence of the disease at the doors of the city became known today through an official diagnosis by pr. c. O. Chandler, in charge of the detention camp. and confirmed by Drs. Gray. Furman and Eaves, the latter special health officer of Texas. sta- tioned here, there was almost a panic, several hundred people leaving on outgoing trains. A vast majority of the population, however, show no alarm but are redoubling their efforts to perfect the work of sanitation com menced a week ago. A shot gun quar- antine was established four days ago and 1t was due to the efficiency of the work of the guards that Tracey was prevented from coming Into the city. Following Is tse history of the case given by the Shreveport board of health: :
 The board of health of the city of Shreveport desire 1t known that there was a case of yellow fever taken from. a Kansas City Southern train north bound on the evening of July 30. (Sun- day). at the point of inspection and carried to the detention camp. The point for inspecting trains is outside the city limits and the patient was taken immediately to the detention camp located in q thirty acre field. The patient was placed in screened bed with a high fever. He gives the following history of himself, his route book confirming it:
 Name is Barney Tracy; occupation, travelling man for Chicago house: left Chicago on July 24, via Illinois Central and arrived in New Orleans Ju- ly 25. Came to Southern Pacific depot and arrived at Orange. Tex, on South Tern Pacific on morning of the 26th. kLeft orange on morning of 29th for Carson.

The yellow fever patient cannot transmit the germ to the mosquito except during the first three days of his illness"

They are exercising every care there to prevent possible cases getting into that city from New Orleans and at present there is not a case of even sus- picious character to be found in tho city.
