WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.-A scourge of mosquitoes on shipboard, remote from any land, is the story brought into port by two vessels that arrived at Southern quarantine stations. 'The matter has been officially reported to the marine hos- pital service by the surgeons at the south Atlantic quarantine station and the Gulf quarantine station, the report being made in accordance with the recent the-; ory that mosquitoes sometimes spread in- fections and contagious diseases. One of the vessels whose passsengers were attacked by swarms of mosquitoes was the ship America. 'The ship was about 10 miles from Chandeleur island in the Gulf of Mexico when the insects ap- peared. 'The other case was considered more re- markable. It was that of the Spanish j bark Maria Blonquer. This vessel was} 22 days out from Rio de Janeiro, several! hundred miles from any known land, when great swarms of mosquitoes seemed to rise up out of the sea, so sudden was their appearance. Life on the ship was made miserable. Some of the apartments were fumigated tio kill the mosquitoes and then the pests were gathered up 1 shovelfuls and thrown overboard.
