THE FOOT AND MOUTH DISEASE
In Cattle. and the ru.lpuatlon. rArOWn Out la the
British Parliament About the Lnrlty oftho
American GOvetnmsnt-rAe Reply Of
tAs Treasury DspArtn,nt-Soles.

WASHINGTON, D. G., August 2o.-Tht
Acting Secretary Of the Treasury addressed
letter to the Secretary Of State in regart
to the foot and mouth disease, Of which tht
following is copy:
~ have the honor TO enclose herewith
newspaper alp containing a telegraph
dispatch from London, England, in which
it is alleged that Dodson, Chancellor Of the
Dutchy Of Lancaster stated in the HOUSE
OF Commons that 1t was an undoubted iact
that the foot and mouth disease in cattle
had been carried from England tc
America, and the American quarantine
system in relation to cattle disease gave nc
security against the conveyance of the dis
ease by men attached to the quarantine
stations and by articles taken out Of quar-.
autine yards, and that the system took into
consideration only Americans themselves.
I deem it due to American interests Ia
state that II the honorable gentleman
named made the remarks attributed 10 him
ii must have beeu done without knowledge
Of all the facts in the case, that in some 70.
specis such remarks arc calculated to mis-.
lead the public mind on the subject. i.
Attention is called to the enclosed report
OF the Treasury Commission in regard to
the foot and mouth disease among cattle
in the United States. While 1t Is admitted
that this disease did exist in herds Of
cattle imported from Great Britain, the
Commission gives emphatic denial to the
present existence Of the diseass among the
cattle OF the United States. The statement
is considered important, because 1t might
be iuierred from the remarks oi Dodson,
that the disease which had thus been im.
ported from Great Britain had not been
eradicated.

LONDON, August 2o.-In the Commons
tonight Gladstone replying to a question
OF Northcote relative to the case Of Shaw
imprisoned by the French in Madagascar,
stated that Shaw had been accused Of hay-
ing relations with Hovas and Of direct
acts OF hostility to the French. Gladstone
said Shaw was confined on board French
man. .oi.yar and would be tried by court
martial, having full facilities for defense
and the right Of appeal. Northcote was
not content with this statement and an
nounced that he would repeat the question
tomorrow. Gladstone declared that he
would be uaable to say anything further
relative to the case as public interests
might be injured. He said there would be
very grave cause for complaint II Shaw was
not accorded fair trial.
