Kan us and Texas passenger train No. 1.
du here at 12 this afternoon waa the
first train stopped at the new established
quarantine detention camp north of Deu-
IflOD All of the passe ngers on board
were required to take oath that they had
not beeu in the infected district within
six days When the quarantine officers
stuled the terms of entering Texas there
Was a general upraising of hands In each
car and the paasengers eagerly grabbed
thel r oua lav Rverybod y on boa rd waa
willing to swear; no oue was taken off
and kept at the camp. If that system Is
kept In effect It Is probable that the
camp will not be needed. Frisco paanea-
gr train No. boa came past the camp as
bard aa It could go. the engfneor taking
no heed jf the signals. It was not until
the train reached Ienison that the train
crew were aware of the detention camp
being established Hereafter all Frisco
train carrying passenger will be exam-
ined. Both of the road have so far refused to
put guards oa the trains o examine the
passengers before their arrival at the
camp The Stale refused to put these
guards on. and the railroads rather than
stand the expense have decided to allow
the traias to be stopped.
The location of th camp north of the
city hi an ideal one. It la situated on top
of a hill where the drainage la rood and
where a cool brveae prevails day and
night This In Itself would prevent mos-
quitoes and the spread of disease if any
yellow fever should be fouad on train
and taken off.

ment ta to so Into effect beginning to-
day and It fa believed that It will make
the situation t fa.cho easier to handle.
The uumber of taaseiiger to be handled
by the railroads will vary af course with
the capacity and equipment of the camp

number of peonl In detention at any Dar
