with Secretary Shaw, the surgeons in

on their conclusions Dr. Wymans
report to the President will be based.
There are several precedents of COM
paratively recent date which warrant
the government in taking charge of
the whole yellow fever situation, nota-
bly, at Brunswick, Ga, and at the epi-
demic at the national soldiers home
at Hampton, Va, in both of which
cases the Marine Hospital Service
practically took charge of affairs until
the disease had been stamped out. The
officials of the Marine Hospital Ser
vice are anxious to cooperate in every
way with the local authorities in fight
ing the disease and a cordial acquies-
cence in the request made by Cover
nor Blanchard and the citizens of
New Orleans is anticipated The gov
eminent has at its disposal what is
known as an epidemic fund available
however, only to part for occasions
like that at New Orleans and expendi-
lures from that fund are usually sup
plemented by those from local quart
