SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, Jan. 15.-Eighty-two

hanging in the state board of health Office.
The disease is slowly but steadily extending
southwark, following the main lines of railway
travel between Chicago and st. Louis, and
along the Mississippi river from 10. Dsviess

river now containing one or more
centers of infection. AS a majority of
these places the disease il well under control.
Vaccination and revaccination has been gen.
orally resorted to, and rigid isolation and
quarantine of patients and suspects enforced.

Uses of the state board, and the detailed reports
now being received fully demonstrate their
sufficiency. Committees are again advised
that whenever published rules and regula tons
are complied with small Dox may be

cases. Another, making the ninth point of
infection from students Of the Keokuk lnedi-
cal college, is reported at Colchester, in Nc.
Dough county. Two other members Of the
family have been attacked since the Students

college authorities and Keokuk board of health
allowed the students to scatter as they did,
instead Of holding them for observation dur

Failure of Chicago Grocers.

CHICAGO, Jan. 15.-Sibley, Dudley s. Co.,
wholesale grocers, this city, made an assign
ment saturday:night to Henry M. Humphrey.
The business was established in 1874, and the
firm has held an excellent record Their lia-
bilities are estimated at 1000. The firm
claim to have assets to fnlly cover
this amount. Last year the firm did
business of 81 ,25O, 900, considerable falling
off from the previous year. The firm was
formerly known as sibley, Endicott & Co.
Mr.. Endicott was president of the Central
National bank, which failed for $3.50, 900 four
years ago. Subsequent to the failure of the
bank Mr.. Endicott went out of business,
and the new firm issued paper to the amount
of $1,000, which, with the accrued interest,
now amounts to upwards of $4,000. Endi-
dicott has called upon the firm to make good
this paper, which together with the fact that
their business last year was unsatisfactory,
has caused their failure. The firm has no pre-
ferred creditors.

Saloon Disturbance,

About IL o'clock last night word was sent
to city hall that a disturbance had taken place
at the saloon kept ay, Samuel Hatfield on
Robert street, and that the latter had been
badly hurt. AS near as could he ascertained,
the saloon was entered by Patrick o. Reagan,
who for some unknown reason, attacked Hat
field, first knocking him down and then kick
ing him. The latter is an old man, and was
pretty badly used up. No cause is assigned
for the assault, which will probably be inves-
tigated to-day.
o'REAGAN's STATEMENT.
Mr.. O'Reagan was seen by GLOBE reporter
at late hour last night and his version of
the affair is entirely different from that related
by Hatfield. He states that he entered the
place by invitation of several gentlemen and
that while they were taking refreshments at
the bar dispute occurred between party of
white and colored men engaged in playing
cards, and that they quarreled over fifty cent
piece.
That during the dispute he, O'Reegan, adj
vised Hatfield that the crowd of card players
were liable to make trouble and clean out the
sheebang, and that on hearing the remark
Hatfield grabbed revolver, and was in the
act of flourishing it in dangerous proximity
to his, O'Reegan's head, when in self defense
the latter seized the weapon and knocked him
down. Also, that he did not kick him, and
that the prompt action was necessary to
avoid trouble.
He also claims that the crowd rushed to-
wards Hatfield and that he defended the latter
and protected him from their violence and
what might have resulted in his receiving
great bodily injury.

Land League Meeting.
Especial Telegram to the Globe.

Especial Telegram to the Globe]
MINNEAPOLIS, Jan. 15.--The meeting
of the Michael Davitt Land League
held in Norden hall last evening, was one
of the largest within it's history, considerable
routine business eliciting spirited discussion
was transacted, after which the president in
trodueed Rev. Father Mortimer O'Connor,
who made an eloquent address. He began by
explaining that he had been for thirty one
years a priest in ireland, end that he now was
in this country lecturing for the benefit of
that parish, that the proceeds of his lecture
was being devoted to alleviate the sufferings
OF the evicted tenants; before
the crises Of 1870, his
tenants; he was the first to establish a league
in his part of Ireland and was it's president I'M
til the league was suppressed by the Infamous
Gladstone government. The speaker, spoke
of the inconsistencies of the John Bright
land act, framed in 1878, which pretended to
give the tenants certain honors and privileges
to improve the agricultural conditions of
ireland. Every one knows the bill was fiat
failure. He gave several incidents in point;
himself and another parish priest at
one time took case into the
tenant who had already paid one-third of the
purchasing money of the holding. They won
the suits. The landlords took it to the appeal
court, the judges of which were three land
lords. This court reversed the order of the
lower court, and handed the property over to
the landlord again. They took the case to the
house of the lords, but this was like taking a
law suit with the devil into the courts of
hell. (Applause.)
Speaking of the Imprisonment of Par
nell and Dillon, he said the
government had just as much
right to imprison him, for he had been as
outspoken and pronouncedly against the land
lordsi as they. He said it gave him much
pleasure to know that ladies' branch league
existed and thrived in this city.
After the close of the address the League
appointed a committee of five to secure Har-
rison hall for lecture by Father O'Connor
on Thursday evening. 1t was announced that
the Ladies' league would give musical and
literary entertainment for the benefit of the
anti-converslon fund, in Norden hall, on
Thursday evening of next week.

We nd the following well deserved testi-
monial to Mr. Benz Woodmnasee, the we'll

Commodore Kittson's) in Dunton's Spirit:
ssMr. Benz. Woodmansee, as all readers of
Dunton's Spirit of the Turf know, is the gen.
eral in command at the beautiful and costly
Midway stables of Com N. W. Kittson. For
instance, the farm costing $4,000, the stables
$4,000 and the horses as follows: Revenue
$4,000, Won Arnlm $4,000, Lady Rolf $10,-
600, So So $4,000, Fanny Witherspoon S.
600, Hambrino Belle $4,000, Gem $1,000 and a
great many others, until the sum they have
cost, reaches more than 100000. Therefore,
it is no ordinary man who can take care of
Midway and keep things in shape. Mr.. Wood
mansee has demonstrated his ability, not only
to set the machinery in motion, but to keep it
in most excellent running order. No stable
of horses. in any country, surpasses that of
Com. Kittson's, not only in the matter of
cost, but in attention also. Fat, sleek and
healthy, Mr.. Kittson may well be proud of
them, and SO may every man in Minnesota."

would be a protection to the steamboats,.

swept against the piers of bridges by the cur
rent. There are thirteen bridges and the esti-
mate, it would cost S250,0OO to build break
waters for them all. The delegation will also
ask that law shall require that all bridges
built hereafter shall be provided with these
