The Small Pox Scare
0. (PEB UNITED PBESS ASSOCIATION.) Auckland, This Day. Something akin to mutiny exists amongst the passengers of the Waihora. S«>me of them refuse to obey the mandate of the quarantine officer and leave the vessel. They urge that the accommodation on shore is not suitable. If necessary they will be removed from the vessel by force to-day, when the steamer will be subjected to twenty-four hours' fumigation with sulphur, and will be subsequently washed with carbolic acid. Tne passengers are publishing a paper calied " Under the Yellow Flag " to vary the monqtony ; and they hold concerts every evening.
