Many of them will be utilized in the movement to 'clean up the t ewers and bancs. The Davis Island dam nickels will be lowered at 9 o'clock this morning. As the rivers recede a force of 50 men from the Public "Works Department will be stationed along the wharves on "Water street and Duquesne way with br'om and scrapers to wash ofi ihe nasty sediment deposited along the shores. By 10 o'clock it is expected the water will have fallen so that the sewer mouths willbeahoe the surface. Then the work of flushing the sewers from Brady street to the Point will begin. A detail of firemen from each engine house in that district will go along the streets opening the water pings to allow the water to pour into the sewers. A sufficient number of plugs will be opened to cause such a heavy stream in the sewers that all deposits will be carried out to the rivers and the passages made clean, as they should be. Itubbisli Froin 111 "pwets Four steamboats were busily engaged all day yesierday dmlgini the accumulated sediment at the mouths ot the big down town sewers. At ihe Brady and Try street sewers considerable difficulty was encoun tered. Locs and boulders had been carried out to the sewer mouths, and were covered with mud, sewage and slaughter house ofial. The dredgers had great difficulty in re moving the obstructions, and at a late 1 our last night two boats were still at work on those two sewers. The other to boats had better success They worked on the sewers down around the Point on both rivers. What they were dragging awav could not be seen, but tne slimy stuff which floated to the sur face showed that good was being done. Over on the Southside the boats will work to day. All the setters over there were found to be in lairly good condition except at South Eighth and Twentieth streets. Over in Allegheny the woist trouble was encoun tered at the'Killbuck street sewer, and one boat put in the dav cleaning it. .No serious trouble was experienced at any other sewer and the work progressed satisfactorily. The boats will probably finish up their work to day in both cities. An Out-of-Town Quarantine. Immigrant Inspector Layton attended the daily meeting of the Emergency Council in Mayor Gourley's office yesterday morn ing. At the suggestion of Mayor Gourley he subsequently visited the officials of the various railroads to see what arrangements could be made for establishing a quarantine against immigrants. Mr. Layton will report at tne meeting this morning. JVlr. Layton said it uould be impossible to establish a quarantine by which immigrants could be transferred around the city by branch rail roads. In the case of those coming to the city to remain, their bacgage could be thoroughly disinfected at out-of-town points. Mr. Layton was seen last evening, and said that all the railroad officials he had seen had heartily agreed te make any quar antine provisions suggested by city officials. The authorities in both cities are now prosecuting persons who fail to obey no tices given them to abate nuisances'and con form with the law.

Residents Along the River Itetween Pltls barg and Davis Island Dzm Demand Relief From the Foal Rivers The Mayor Talks. An Inspection made yesterday of the Ohio river and its banks between the Point and Davis Island Dam shows a necessitv for action by the State Board of Health as well as for a new system for the disposal of garbage in the two cities. The citizens of Esplen, McKee's Rocks and Chartiers bor oughs, i ho suffer most from this nuisance, have been talking of an appeal to the State Board for some time and the matter is now being agitated with some evidences of ac tion. The condition of the banks of the river is disgusting. From the Western Peniten tiary down to the dam the shore is lined with decaying vegetable matter, rotten meat and poultry, dead dogs and cats, and all the matter making up the refuse of a big city. The odor arising from this rotten putrefying mass is in some places so vile that an ordinary person cannot bear to pass within 100 yards of it. The further down the river one may go, the worse the condi tion of the banks. At the dam and along the shore around Davis Island the garbage and sewage are piled high.and under the in fluence ot the t.ot sun emit a terrific stench which annoys residents of the valley on both sides of the river. At the dam the wickets are bo clogged with slaughter house ofial and the other debris mixed with sewer deposits carried down from the cities that men are required to work almost constantly cleaning the nasty foul-smelling stuff awav. The surface of the water for a long distance above the dam is covered with a dense green slime which seems to suggest disease and death. Mayor Gourley thinks the State Board of Health should take this matter in .hand at once. "But," said he, "about the first thing the board would do if it made an in vestigation would be to -prohibit the two cities from 'dumping garbage into the rivers. This city would have a hard time of it for awhile if this was done but I think it would eventually result in a proper disposal of garbage by burning. One thing-is certain, it will be of little use for us to clean the city as a prevention of chol era while the present conditions exist down along the ''river. The wind blows up he river nearly all the time and in erent of cholera germs finding a lodgment In that decaying mass the two cities could sot escape disease. About the best thing to be done after the wickets at the dam are lowered would be to collect all that gar bage in piles and burn it. But who is to do it? That is a question in my judgment for.the State Board of Health to answer. Something should be done to abate that nuisance, cholera or (no cholera." Plrubnrgers Quarantined. " Quite a number of Pittsburgen were on board of the City of New York, which ar rived in port yesterday morninc. Amonjr them were ea-judije James Keed, wife and son, Miss Margaret Magee, sister of C.
