Washington, Aug. 9.-In addition to
the revenue cutter WinOna, which is
now at Gulfport, Miss, the revenue
cutters Forward, now at Key West;
the Hamilton, at Tampa, and the Sem

ordered to Gulfport for the purpose of

anG will proceed to that point at once.
They have been directed to act under
the instructions of Capt. w. c. Ross,
chief of the revenue service, who has
left for New Orleans. 1t is expected
that other and smaller boats will be
needed in order to make an effective
patrol, and to this end any boats re-
quired will be employed and the rev.
enue flag holsted over them and a rev.

will then be to all intents, government

as the revenue cutters, which will en-
able them to go into any waters.

efficient quarantine can be maintained.
