CHATTANOOGA’S QUARANTINE.]"
Only People From Points Where Fever
Prevails Debarred From That City.
• The quarantine regulations are be
ing rigoriously enforced on all rail
ways entering Chattanooga, says the
i Times Yesterday the city and coun
ty board of health employed four ad
i ditional inspectors, Policemen Brock,
Krichbaum and Woy. and Detective
Wells, who are inspecting all trains
on the Nashville, Chattanooga and
St. Louis railway, Chattanooga, Rome
and Southern railway, and the South
ern railway, main line. These offi
cers were engaged in this work before
the government quarantine was es
tablished. They are now working
under the direction of Dr. G. M.
Hunt, the inspector-in-chief for the
government, who has full charge of
the quarantine.
Many refugees from infected points
have passed through Chattanooga
within the past few days enroute to
points further north. It was feared
that they might attempt to come back
to the city via the Nashville, Chatta
nooga and St. Louis and main line of
the Southern, and on this account
the board of health deemed it wise to
inspect all incoming trains on these
two roads as closely as possible.
Dr, Hunt and hi» corps of inspect
ors had their hands full yesterday
preventing refugees from Selma from
lauding in Chattanooga. Every
train from the south brought refugees.
From the trains which arrived yester
day rqorning were four refugees from
New Orleans, five from Memphis,
about fifty from Selma and five from
Montgomery.
Yesterday at noon the Southern
train from Atlanta brought in a car
load of Selma refugees, who were
transferred to the Nashville, Chatta
nooga and St. Louis railway under
police .surveillance. They were not
allowed to raise the windows of the
cars while in the depots.
The trains arriving after supper
brought in between flft” and seventy
five refugees who went on to Nash
ville on the early train this morning.
A rumor was extensively circulated
yesterday to the effect that there
were four cases of yellow fever in
Murray county, Georgia, about fifteen
miles from Cleveland, Tenn. An ef
fort was made to verify it but with
out success. The health authorities
do not credit the rumor.
Tortured for Months.
' ‘I was tortured for nine months with
nettle rash. I found no relief until I be
gan taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla, The
first few bottles relieved me and I con
tinued its use until I was cured, I am
now in better health than for years and
my skin is soft and smooth. ” Mrs., Lucy
W. Bigelow, Bushnell, Florida.

SENATOR MORGAN IS SICK.
Alabamian Stiff* ring With Cold Con*
tracted on the Way to America.
San Diego, Cal., Oct. 26.—United
States Senator Morgan, who recently
returned from a trip to the Hawaiian
Islands and is now on his way to Wash
ington, arrived here at 6:30 p. m., and
proceeded to Coronado. The senatoi
was not feeling well, and consequently
it was not deemed advisable to teudet
him the reception that had been
arranged at Hotel Del Coronado in hit
honor.
Senator Morgan's illness is said to be
due to a cold which he caught on the
steamship Oregon. At an early houi
the telephone from the Coroirado hotel
stated that the senator was suffering
from a high tever. i
