War On the St Louis Bucket Shops.

A telegram from st. Louis says that Superin-
tendent Baker, of the Western Union Telegraph
company, informed the leading bucket shop
propretors in that city Monday that his COM
pany would discontinue furnishing them with
Chicago market quotations after January L.
This is in compliance with notice served by the
Chicago board of trade on General Superintend-
ent Clowery. of the Western Union company.
The bucket shop men say that the action OF the
Chicago board of trade was caused by represen-
tations made by a committee OF st. Louis
brokers who visited Chicago for the purpose OF
breaking up the bucket shops and that they
secured this action on the representation that
the brokerage business between st. Lous and
Chicago would be two-thirds larger than it is il
bucket shops were closed The bucket shop
prOprietOrs claim that they can avert the
threatened disaster by having new signs painted
describing themselves as bankers and brokers.

ern Union claim that they viii have to be full
filled no matter how great is the pressure
brought to bear upon the company.

RAsCALLY LAW CLERK AND A HANDSOME

was yesterday developed in the district attor-

self as an unmarried man to Mr. Sutphen As
such, in the course of business, some months
ago. Mr.. Sutphen executed condition deeds
transferring four lots in 18th street. eight
houses and lots in Brooklyn, and farm in East
chester, Westehester county, in all valued at
$40, 600, to him. The deeds were not recorded.
it being meant to convey the property temper
arily to Shibly for the purposes of Mr.. Sutphen's
business, and that he should recOnvey or the
deeds be destroyed when the business was CON-
pleted. The deeds were placed in the safe for
safety. An attractive young woman who con-
stantly visited Shibly was introduced as Miss
Jennie Brooks. On the 10th of November the
law firm of Brown & Wescott at lis Broadway,
paid Shibly $14 S2S. 10 i'm a check on the Ameri-
can Exchange National bank for money owing
to Sutphen. Shibly had the check certified, and
represented to Mr.. Sutphen that the firm had no
money in the bank and the cashier had kept the
check, refusing to certify to it until the money
came in. He then tried in vain to purchase u.
S. bonds with the certified check, but the
amount OF it was too large to negotiate.
He then disappeared and was not subsequently
seen until his arrest When he disappeared he
took the deeds for the property conveyed to him
by Mr.. Sutphen with him. The following day
Kipling called on Mr.. Sutphen and offered to
procure the deeds for consideration. Miss
Brooks also called and introduced herself
as Mrs: Walter F. Shibly, wife Of the fugitive,
and as such entitled to dover right in the
property. She refused to sign a lease or tell
where her husband was. Her husband wanted
money for the papers. and would not give them
up unless he received the money. Mr.. SutpheE
refused to pay anything. and invoked the aid of
the police. Both Shibly and Kipling were ar
raigned in the court Of general sessions. where
they pleaded not guilty. Bail was fixed at

Meeting Of Brewers.

Delegates have arrived in Chicago to con-
vention Of the brewers Of the northwest, to be
held in that city TO-DAY. They represent the
brewing interests in st. Louis, Milwaukee,
Detroit, Toledo and many other cities. The
object Of the convention is to take into consi-
deration the state of trsde and discuss means
that will promote it, the main question being to
arrange plan whereby the brewers can act in
harmony and become united in the matter of
prices, and other routine affairs connected with
the business. In the matter of the national tax
on beer, it is given out that the brewers will
seek in no way to sway Congress one way or
another on the subject. To-day's convention
has no significance in connection, the delegates
say, with the proposed Internal revenue reduc-
ton on spirits and malt liquors.

APPEARANCE OF THE DISEASE IN CAMDEN AND
ELSEWHERE.
From the Philadelphia Record. Dec. 10.
The Camden transfer company was obliged to
stop running some of It's coaches on Saturday
afternoon last and to-day all but few will be
withdrawn from the line, owing to its horses
being afflicted with eIazooty. The disease
first broke out on Friday night. One of the
horses fell in the street. and on being taken
to the stable of the company, at Wrights-
vile. it was discovered that the animal was
suffering severely from epizooty. Seven
others became sick the next day. State Veteri-
nary Surgeon Dr.W. B. E. Miller was called in TO
attend the stock, and he pronounced the
trouble dry epizooty. Five of them had so far
improved yesterday that they were declared
convalescent. Two of the others will, 1t is
thought, be able to pull through, but the one
which was first afflicted will probably die There
are ~ horses In the stables and it Is believed
that all will catch the disease in few days
DIR. Miller said yesterday that the disease is
very infectious and is likely to spread. 81
have been informed" he said, ''that it has
broken out in a number of places in this state
and in Pennsylvania. All the reports
describe the same symptoms The horses refuse
to eat at first, and then rapidly become sore and
stiff. There is no discharge at the nose, as was
the case during the disease nine years ago. The
present affection is what might therefore, be
termed dry epizOoty, which is far worse than if
the poisonous stuff was discharged through the
nostrils. The great trouble with the Transfer
company's horses is that the blood is being sur
charged with the poison, which can only be
driven out by powerful doses of medicine. The
horses threats get to be sore that they can
not swallow, and medicine must be forced down
them, for it cannot be administered by hypoder-
mic injections, as the weakness of the
animals will not permit resorting to such
method. All the muscles of the spine
become affected, and the general condition of
the animal is painful to behold. There is one
horse at Wrightsyille that has not lain down to
sleep since Thursday night, as his joints are too
stiff and will not bend. That one think, will
die. If this disease spreads, as believe it will,
1t will be far more fatal in its effects than the
pink-eye. / think that the atmosphere is
charged with the germs OF epizooty, and if the
owners OF horses and the superintendent of the
large car stables are not particularly careful of
their stock, it is likely that they will be oc-
casioned much trouble before many days"
