The Board of Health has decided to be
more rigorous than heretofore In the en
forcement, of th quarantine regulations
apalnat arnaOlpnx. The trma of quarantine
Is extended from seventeen to forty days.
The cases until recently hsve been of a
mild type, but of late several bad cases
have developed, and- with fifty-six cases
now under quarantine ln the city and more
developing every few days it has become
apparent that something will have to be
done. .
In many families when a patient comes
down with the disease It Is either not re
ported by tbe attending physician or else
ne physician 1s called, so that many have
doubtless been exposed on account of this
negligence.

PARIS. Feb. I A conlinuanca of tht
cross-examination of the Russian officers
at today s session of the international com
mission dereioed considerable feeling and
several sharp exchanges of remarks. Cap
tain Clado parucuiarly criticised the hos
tile attitude of the British press. He said
Vice Admiral Rtlestvensky had written a
private letter severely condemning the
British pre.-'. u-!r.g one phrase which Cap
tain Clado sfcld he considered necessary to
torpedo boats. It was deairable to
1th
draw the squadron, as scon t poasioie
from the vicinity of such attacks.
Admiral Beaumont (Great Britain) closely

British Expert Teatlfles.
Counsel for Great Britain Introduced
Commander Keane. former chief of a tor
pedo division and a leading torpedo expert
of the British navy. He asserted positively
that mistakes were frequently made be
tween torpedo boats and otber boats mainly
because searchlights confused the ordinary
calculation of distances, and cited the case
of the British battleship Devastation, which
vss mistaken for a torpedo boat during a
ilsht evolution, and also of a c-ulser of 11.
X tons, which was mistaken for a torpedo
ont during the Mediterranean maneuver
of in.
Interrogating the witness. Admiral Four
rtier French) asked whether it would be
possible to mistake a battleship for a tor
pedo boat when a boat of th dimensions
nt a trawler wa alongside.
"Certainly not." replied the witness.
Admiral Fournier conaldered the pclnt
interesting, statin that such waa the posi
tion of the Russian, who had observed
the torpedo boats with trawlers along-side.
If a battleship Instead of a torpdo boat
had been there it could not have been
mistaken fcr a torrdo boat.
Admiral Doubasoff (Russian), saying the
question was important, asked Lieutenant
Bchramtchenko. torpedo officer of the bat
tleship Borodino, relative to the Impression
on board his ship when it was announced
that ti rpdo boats were pursuing the Kam
chatka The witness stated that "our suppositions
regarding the possibility of a torpedo at
tack were realised."
Christiansen, mate of the Norwegian ves
sel Adella, swore that he saw a torpedo
boat in the North sea on September 1
and that on the following day he saw a
similar vessel without lights sailing at
great speed ln the vicinity where traalers
crossed. The witness was uncertain
whether the second vessel was a torpedo
boat.
