Hoffman Island detention station of
tlie New York quarantine service now
has an average transient population
of more than 1.000 a day, due to the
Inbound rush of Italian Immigrants.
In addition, five doctors attached to
the station have given up all thoughts
of vacation and are working, out* of
the quarantine officials said, to the
limits of human endurance in vao
clnating, fumigating and Inspecting
prospective citizens and their fane
Illes.
Tlie ri’BKon for the unusual condi­
tion at Hoffman lefiind Is said to be a
misunderstanding on the part of Ital­
ian officials and steamship companies
respecting United State« health regu­
lations. Travelers from districts where
typhus and other transmittable dis-
< Hf.es prevail are supposed to be “de-
loused,” examined and certified as
“clean” by American public health offi­
cers before they board the ship.
Th««* reguiaUons are not bring
complied with, officials here claim, and
therefore the work must be done be­
fore the traveler Is landed. Tlie ex­
pense of the work here is charged to
the steamship companies.
During the last week more than half
a dozen ships have arrived from points
where typhus-carr/lm, subjects could
be taken on board. All of these ships
have been detained In quarantine while
the steerage passengers, numbering
nearly 2,000 on each ship, were taken
off on barges landed at Hoffman Island
and detained tor 24 to' 43 hours.
During the detention they are com-
t>elled to take u thoroutrh bath. Their
clothing, baggage and effects are fumi­
gated In live steam. From Huffman
Island arrivals are taken to Ellis is­
land for examination by immigration
authorities as to their qualifications
for entry.
