Fever Quarantine Tightened as Cairo Acts

The Cairo Board of Health on the 20th upheld strict quarantine rules amid fears of yellow fever spreading. Southbound railroad passengers passed through Cairo under guard in locked cars to Centralia, while Memphis reports seven new cases on the 19th and ten more with five deaths on the 2th. Authorities moved poor residents out of the city as wealthier citizens sought other locales. Dr Saunders said the fever was less malignant than last year and more responsive to treatment. Dr Minor issued a state authorized quarantine against infected points in the South. Boats would be stopped ten miles below the city midstream.
