THE QUARANTINE.
Another View Taken of It—Lightering
Cargoes.
Savannah, Oct. dll. — Edit • Morning
Sews: Let us take another view of quaran
tine and sea what is there now. We And the
Amykos still there. No? That seems hardly
possible, but it is a fact. She lias been there
since Sept, B—eighty-five days since her de
parture from St Jag-> de Cuba, and fifty
one days at the mouth of our river, all t lie
crew in health. Can there be any possible
reason in such detention? She certainly is
x memorable example of our quarantine
system, and the Mnratime Exchanges the
world over are beginning to understand our
regulations, to our injury.
Nothing was said in my last, about light
ering her cargo. It read, that in response
to an inquiry ns to the time when ‘‘the ship
would be allowed to come up,” the Mayor
under date of Sen. 13, replied referring to
rhe Inst clause of sec.lon 'J, and section 11.
Section II reads. "That from May 1 to No
vember 1, of each year, and longer" (think
of it, ox er six months maybe) "if the
Board of Sanitary x Vmmissioners shall
so determine, no vessel (‘in sick
ness or in health,') arriving at this
port from any infected or suspected locali
ty, will be allowed to come 100 this city with
cargo in hold.’’ So neither length of voy
age, condition of the crew or cargo, nor bill
of health are of any moment,. It is an iron
clad six months b!6o *a l We will see if it
does amount to a six mouths blockade, if
the law is enter end. Heading further on the
section says, "Such cargoes will be requir
ed to be lightered from the quarantine sta
tion under Mich requirements as the Board
of Sanitary C immissiou may px-eseribe.”
In the case of the “Amykos,” the Health
Officer says “it was decided by the insur
ance agencies, aid others ! mving control of
the bark Amykos that there was no hurry,"
and they proferrei to have her remain to
lightering her t argo. That the insurance
agencies were in no hurry to take the extra
risk will probably tie commended. But
what of the owners of the vessel, owners of
the cargo and Captain! W"re these three
important factors all in no hurry? Was'
the interest ae, ount against vessel and
cargo and cost of crew of no moment? The
Health Officer says “her cargo could have
been lightered to the city at any time.”
The subject of lightering was not in
tended to be further discussed, hut as it has
been touched upon, it may be interesting to
learn some f the difficulties under which
lightering has been done at this port.
The instructions issued to Weed & Corn
well for lightering their coffiv were that "a
lighter and crew of acclimated men will lie
allowed to go alongside the bark Anna, and
receive cargo between sunrise anil sunset
of each day; upon sunset the lighter and
crew” must, leave the bark and anchor one
mile from the quarantine station.
Mr. Weed stated in his letter of Oct. 6
that it was impossible to bring up the cargo
on those terms, and he stared at the meet
ing of committee of the Hoard of Trade
and the Sanitary Board at th" Exchange
that, he never could and never did conform
to the permit, but ignored some of its pro
visions, and was compelled to, to get his
cargo. Now, let us see whut happened to
C. I/. Gilbert A Cos. A permit was issued
to them to lighter cargo of coffee upon the
following terms in 1 sB4:
That when permission Is given for lighter to
goto qtuxrantir:* station io fake cargo from
vessel, such lighter must Be moored and
tluit no cmr (mark this fi mu the city will be
allowed to remain txi t!ie quarantine station, on,
or with the lighter has-t;i.,t >. the transfer of
cargo must lie made by the mu of vessel bring
ing same to this port. Il is also made a requisite
to omaiii such permit tbar i he consignee of such
cargo must have the lighter provided witli a
sufficiency of two inch strip of wood, in order
that riu h hug of i offer or oilier such ill
have three of such strips bet ween it and tlfelng
above an ! lielow it (tine hanging gardens). This
precaution is taken in order that the cargo will
admit, when on hoard of the lighter, of satisfac
tory fumigation.
Under such conditions, "no crew" I icing
allowed on the lighter, how could the Amy
kos, witii seven men—the crew all
tolil —unload and store on lighter hogsneu.ls
or puncheons of rum weighing I,‘JOO to 1,3(11)
pounds'? No one at interest would take such
risks. Ho tiie law in force was a blockade
to Iter.
How did C. L. Gilbert & Cos. manage
xvi'ii their |iermit? And what was done
with the two-inch sticks? Why, of course,
they had out one lliijip, to do. The tieauti
