and will remain in session some ten days.
Thlrty States are represented. Leading Off

last year the membership of the existing
Oranges has largely increased. The Grange is
now largely devoted to social purposes OF
the seven original founders of the organiza-
ton, number will be present at the meeting
to-day. One of the important subjects to be
brought to the attention of the Grange is
memorial to Congress urging the necessity of
the passage OF the pending bill to prevent the
spread OF pleura-pneumonia among cattle.
Statements will be read at the meeting to
show that the loss to American shippers on
the live stock shipped to England last year

such law, more than two million dollars.
The regulations of the British Privy Council
now require all importations of cattle from the
United States to be slaugh' cred at the port of
ueoarkatlon within fourteen days from the
time of arrival. This prevents American
dealers from sending cattle into the interior of
Great Britain to recover from the voyage or
TO take any advantage of the markets. The
officers of the Grange have information that
this Privy Council order will be maintained

can be given to all exported cattle. 1t will

transportation as well as producing interests
are suffering from present conditions. as the
British government exempts cattle imported
from canada from the operations Of this
Privy Council order. rnis is premium to the

feat on account of the State rights opposition
of the Bourbon Democracy.
