the rules with those paragraphs especially bearing upon the sub- 
ject, plainly marked, is therefore appended. 
The construction of a quarantine station on Alaui and the re- 
moval and rebuilding of the present makeshift station at Hilo 
should also receive the consideration of the Board. 
The following live stock, dogs and poultry, have arrived since 
the last meeting of the Board : 
March 18 — S. S. Wilhelmina, 6 horses. 
March 18 — S. S. Wilhelmina, 26 mules (17 Schuman, 9 Hono- 
lulu Plantation). 
March 18 — S. S. Wilhelmina, 5 crates poultry. 
March 24 — S. S. Mexican, 1 crate poultry. 
March 25 — ^S. S. Siberia, 2 crates poultry. 
March 28 — S. S. Korea, 1 crate poultry. 
March 28 — S. S. Korea, 1 dog. 
IMarch 30 — S. S. Marama, 1 dog. 
April 2 — S. S. Sierra, 3 crates poultry. 
April 2 — S. S. China, 3 crates poultry. 
As the S. S. Lurline is expected on April 6 with several large 
consignments of mules (in the neighborhood of 75 head) the 
new quarantine station will undoubtedly be tested as to its ca- 
pacity unless the animals which are there now can be previously 
removed. 
^ Glanders. 
Live Stock Inspector Venlniizen has reported only two suspici- 
ous cases since the last report, neither of which proved to be 
glanders. Three suspects mentioned in a previous report have 
been cancelled from suspect list. 
The following districts have been inspected : 
Moiliili 5 times 
Palolo Valley 1 
Kapahulu and Waikiki 2 “ 
Kewalo and Kakaako 4 “ 
Kalihi 3 “ 
Nuuanu and Puunui 1 
Pauoa Valley 2 " 
All hack, dray, express and livery stables have been visited 
regularly and all streets in the business section of the city 
patrolled. 
The glanders situation must therefore at the present time be 
considered as well under control. 
In this connection it may be well to mention that preparations 
are now being made for the establishment of breeding pens for 
guinea pigs. These will be made at the quarantine station. With 
an abundant supply of guinea pigs the positive diagnosis of 
glanders can, as a rule, be made in a shorter time than by any 
other method, and in cases where litigation might ensue the 
guinea pig test is universally accepted as most reliable.
