DR. SANDERS WAS
 HERE SHORT WHILE
SAYS THAT ALABAMA WILL BE PROTECTED IN EVERY WAY AcAINsT YELLOW FEVER-A STRICT QUARANTINE.

Dr. Sanders. president of the state board of health. passed through Birmingham yesterday en route to Montgomery to take active charge of the quarantine situ- ation. He Is returning from trip through the west and at the time he hrst heard of the quarantine and yellow fever he was In Yellowstone Park.
 While In the city pr. Sanders instructed local Inspector Toe to be very strict and under no circumstances to allow any one who had been exposed to remain in the state. He said that his information is that the yellow fever in New Orleans was very serious and causing large per centage of deaths. He further said that the state of Alabama would take every precaution to prevent yellow fever reach ing this state.
 Dr. Sanders even went so far as to in- struct that train crews and dining car crews which have been in New Orleans shall not be allowed to stay in Birmng- ham, and he had dining car crew on the Louisville and Nashville yesterday morning placed under guard and sent out of the state.
 The movement of refugees through Bir- mingham yesterday was about as large. as on Wednesday, when nearly 100 people were carried through the city on the vari- ous trains.
 Several people were placed under spe- cial guard and sent out of the state yes terday. Among these was the dining car crew on the Louisville and Nashville rail road yesterday morning
 The officers are having more trouble in keeping people out of the state from Tennessee and neighboring states after they have been exposed and have gone through Alabama. Refugees who are not allowed to stop in the state will go through to Tennessee, get off the trains at the first stop in that state and return to Alabama on a southbound train. The quarantine will probably have to be ex- tended In order to cover all southbound trains on the Queen and Crescent and the Louisville and Nashville.
