New Horse Disease in Philadelphia,

new Horse disease IN fnlldu6lpnIa'
PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 14-Within the last
few days, stabemen throughout the city have
been surprised at the appearance of a peculiar
disease among many of the horses under their
charge, affecting the feet and ankles of the ami
mails in a most unusual way. The first symp-
toms are fever and Inflammation upon the
parts around the pasterns and below the fet-
lock. The following morning there are run
ming discharges of thick yellowish matter and
afterward pus begins to flow freely. The horse
becomes lame and disp rited and is totally un-
fit for work Experienced horsemen appear to
be at a loss to comprehend fully the nature of
the disease, but al are united in the opinion
that it has been caused by the sailed railroad
track. The treatment to be followed accord
ing to veterinary surgeons, is to poultice the
ankle to remove the fever, and then to use as
tringents The horses must have perfect rest
until all evidence Of the disease is gone, for
exercise only tends to reopen the sores A few
of the street railway horses are afflicted, but
the drivers are reticent in speaking of the
matter.
