PLeuI.o Pneumonia.

Pleuro-penumonia is spreading to such
an extent among cattle in some sections
of the State as to call for the strictest
watchfulness among breeders and owners
of stock to prevent contagion, which can
be done to great extent by confning
cattle to the places of their owners and
not allowing any strange stock to enter
the premises.

DISCUSSION ON .CnETESrEpr NnMINs rIlNS


The republican Senators met IN caucus this
morning TO receive the report OF their COM
mittee on the scope and order OF the business
to be transacted in the proposed executive ses-
sions. A discussion ensled. which had not
been completed when the hour for the assem-
bling ofthe Senate arrived, and the caucus ad-
journed TO meet agdin this afternoon. The AZ
sion Is underst ood to have Eeen conf ned mainly
to lhe question as TO what shall be cousd rel
" "contested cases. to be withdrawn from aclion
Tor the present Senator CoaEiing and friends
insisted thSt Nomination objected TO By
SiEgle Senator OF the state 10 which tho Do.ni-
netion belongs, should put Il In the list or eJa-
tested nominations. and therefore exclude it
from consideration. On the OGner Side, it was
maintained that an adverse report from COM
mfttee should only put a nomtnaJion In the
contested list; that. In fact, nothing short OF
nomination Irom consideration. Senators who
represent the administration did not, iG Is ad
contend for anything that would entagoniza
Mr.. Conkling or any body else, but only for rule
that would give all nomin atlons fair chance
for action. The contest OF Ir. Conkllng for a
rule that It Will enable one Senator to lay aside
a nomination By ObIecung TO it, has revived the
rumor that he is afraid Mr.. Platt will not stick
to him through his fight. Notwithstanding
Mr.. C0nkliDg's position, bis friends insist that
he Is determined to make the Robertson fight
this session, as ne has everything TO gain and
nothiDg to lose by forcing 1t now. When he
came out OF the caucus Mr. Conkling wore a
look OF extreme satisfaction, and he shook
hancS cordially with nearly all the Senator's.
This was construed by some to indicate thai ne
felt confident OF the future.
