YOE INSTRUCTED ID BE VERY STRICT Inspectors Must Enforce Quar- antlne Very Carefully PASSENGERS TAKE OATH All of Them Required to Sign Sworn Statement That They Have
 Not Been Near New
 Orleans.

B. Frank Yoe local quarantine inspec- tor, was yesterday instructed by the state board of health to tighten up in enforcing the quarantine and to have his inspectors be more careful about al- lowing people from New Orleans to get off the trains in Birmingham or Ala bama.
 Following those instructions he secured several more inspectors and now every train from the south is closely watched and all people from the Crescent City and gulf ports are forced to pass on through the state.
 On the various trains from New Or leans yesterday about twenty people were compelled by the inspector to go on through to other states. A majority of them had tickets reading to Birmng- ham, but the inspectors accompanied them to the Tennessee or the Georgia line and would not allow them to get on the train in Alabama.
 About 0 dozen inspectors are working under Mir. Toe at present and he needs two or three more In order that he may have one or two in reserve should any thing unusual arise Inspectors have come into Birmingham on every Louisville and HdSnVllle, tlueeH anu OIeSocht dHu II tisSu train from New Orleans, or which made connection with trains from New Orleans.
 Inspector, Toe sent one of his inspectors, M w Kerr, to Blocton yesterday morn ing on the request of Mayor Logan of that city to take charge of Morris Powell, a negro boy, who had just come from New Orleans. The negro was brought to Birmingham and closely questioned by MT. Yeo It developed that the negro had only passed few hours in New Or leans in catching a train several days ago, and he was released.
 pr. N. E. Sellers, inspector in charge at Meridian, came to Birmingham last night to have a conference with MT. Toe regarding the quarantine on the Queen and Crescent, and also to obtain some ad- v.se regarding the best manner of con ducting the quarantine offices at that place. MT. Toe has been connected with the quarantine service for several years and IS thoroughly informed.
 MT. Toe received several hundred blanks yesterday which all through passengers on trains are required to sign. The blanks are as follows:

No Trouble Yesterday.


 No trouble was experienced locally yes terday by the inspectors. Only one man protested against having to pay his rail- road fare to Tennessee, but he withdrew his protest when he was told that he would be arrested and sent out of the state under guard If he did not do as instructed.
 The passengers on the trains yesterday from New Orleans said that there was no particular excitement in that city and that as fer as they knew there was no special movement on the part of the people to leave the city. R. c. Wilton, q merchant of New Orleans, said that the disease was not spreading to amount to anything and that the people of New Orleans did not seem to be worried over the few cases that were In existence there now. He said that the people to whom he had talked were not leaving the city on account of yellow fever. but were merely seeking the summer resorts or travelling on business. He, however. stated that all firms who have drummers travelling out of New Orleans have in- structed their men not to come to the city, but to remain on the road for fear of being qnarantined. Drummers who go to New Orleans are going around that city at present, according to Mir. Wilton. for fear they win be quarantined
 The railroads report that they have not had any extra movement of people out of New Orleans on account of the yellow fever scare and that no extra equipment has been required on any of thelr trains north.
