TIE HORSE EPIDEMIC.


TRcpo1tcd for the Baltimore Sun.
The horse disease continues to in
crease in all the public and street-car
stables, and has made proportionate
progress in many private stables. A
mong the street car horses the malady
is probably more observable and more
distressing than in any other class of
animals. Nearly all the livery stable
keepers, acting on the side of prudence;
refuse to work their horses showing
the least symptoms of the disorder, SO
that it was almost impossible Yesterday
to hire carriages or other vehicles. On
the streets there was no apparent DIM
inHtion of the number or wagons, drays
OF other draught and transportation
vehicles, though very many of the
horses at work showed symptoms of
the desease A sufficient number !. Of
horses, however, are already sick and
Withdrawn, particularly from the whar-
yes and other centres of merchandise,
TO put tip the rate of charges. This is
already beginning to be a subject of
complaint. There are also so many of
| the street-car horses sick as to seriously
ihconmode the public. The cars now
run at much longer intervals, and it is
greatly feared that unless the disease
Speedily passes away there will be much
greater Inconvenience on this score l
is. some consolation to know that from
nearly all sources it is reported that the
influenza is of very mild type, and that
their horses quickly recover under
prompt and proper treatment.
