The Cattle DiaehRe.

DENVER, Aug. 14.-Tbe cattle men are
meeting with only indifferent success in
stamping out Texas fever, as it still exists at
different points In the State. The Cattle
Growers Association have kept the State
veterinary constantly on the go for several
days investigating the reports of heavy NOR
tality among the herds of the northern coun-
ties, which are COZ stantly being received and
published. Every instance so far has been
found to be highly exaggerated, and in some
cases wholly false. The disease has not
made its appearance in any large herds on
the range. Leading cattle men do not regard
the danger as imminent.
ST. JOHNS, Aug. IA dispatch received
from Topeka, Kansas, says that the vetern-
airy has received advices that the Texas fever
has appeared In Pottawatamie, Morris, Will
son and johnson counties, making eight
places In the State where the disease exists.
CHICAGO, Aug. 13.-It Is reported that
pleuro- pneumonia has broken out in herd
Of cattle near this city. DR.. Solomon, Of
the Washington National Agricultural Blu
reau, has gone out to investigate.
HARRISBURG, Pa, Aug. 13.-The State
authorities to-day received word of new
case of pleuro pneumonia near Ephrat, Lam
caster county.
New YORK, Aug. 13.-Pleuro-pneumon;a
has been discovered In a COW stable at Bliss
VILE. The Questionable establishment will
be closed.

The Case OF Mrs. Halpin.

WASHINGTON, August 16. - Mr.. J. A.
Frank, a clerk in the Second Auditors Office
in the Treasury Department, received a let
ter to-day from Judge Kent of Middlebury,
Mass, an uncle Of the junior member of the
firm of Flynn & Kent of Buffalo, n Y, in
whose store Mrs. Maria Halpn was employ
ed prior to the occurrences narrated in the
newspapers of the indscretion of the Dem.
ocratic candidate for President, during his
residence in Buffalo. Judge Kent was for
several years a United States Consul In
Spain, and after his return home, was ap.
pointed to position in the Office of the Sec
ond Auditor of the Treasury Department,
which position he resigned about year ago
After the publication of the Cleveland scan
DIAL, Mr.. Frank, who has been an Intimate
friend of Judge Kent's while he was In the
Department, wrote him asking him to inquire
of his nephew whether Mrs. Halpn had been
in his employ as stated, and what her char.
acter was. The letter ne received TO day
was in reply to this request. 1t gives the
substance Of the letter received by the Judge
from his nephew, and is to the effect that
about ten years ago Mrs. Halpin was in the
employ Of the firm. She was in their EN-.
ploy for twenty six months, and was regarded
by the firm. as we'll as by her fellow employ.
ees, as a respectable and virtuous lady. She
was handsome lady, and Of a modest an
retiring disposition. During the two years
she was with the firm, not a breath of sus-
piclon was ever raised that she was not in
all respects the lady she appeared to be. She
left the firms employ of her own volition.
Two months after she resigned her position
In the store, Mr.. Kent was Informed that SHE
was in trouble, and shortly afterwards the
boy, whose paternity is in dispute, was born.
Up to the time she left his employ, Mr..
Kent says in the letter, her character had
never been assaulted. After the birth of the
child, the letter says, her downward course
began.

The Blaine Libel Case.

INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 15.--Nothing has
occurred for years that created so much gen.
ersl interest as Blaine's telegram. 1t Is uni
versally commended, and its manly and
naughty tone inspired Republicans with en-
thusiasm and determination to see the case
prosecuted to the bitter end. Democrats
who will express an opinion say Blaine has
pursued the only manly aud honorable
course left open to him, and the Sentinel
committed Il mistake that can but iDjure the
Democrats in the contest. One prominent
Democratic politician said to day that If the
Sentinefs publications had been made against
his family, he would have gone cunning
after the editor of the Sentinel five minutes
afterwards. 1t is said that when the copy Of
Blaine's letter was read by the editor of the
Sentinel he exclaimed, "Great God!" but
later he refused TO converse with any one
about the matter. Senator Harrison has
taken hold of the case in earnest, aud pro-
poses to prosecute it with vigor.

CONGRESS has voted 100000 in order to

hibit at the Worlds Exposition next winter.
Some OF the departments had only rudi-

have been increased tenfold since then, and
will be opened at New Orleans In fine order.

The star on the Scandal.

New YORK, Aug. 15.-The Star, the only
paper which prints the Buffalo special con-
tanning Mrs. Halpin's interview this morn
ing. has the following editorial, double
loaded: Our columns tomorrow will con.
tain history which must prove Of interest
to every American citizen. No more re-
markaole recital has appeared in dozen
campaigns. After four years of silence and
concealment, disclosure will be made
which may we'll cause honest voters to In
quire into the methods Of campaign mana
gers. As an independent Democratic news
paper, it is the Stars duty to publish every
thing Of interest to the people in the present
campaign, no matter who suffers by the dis
closures. Justice and truth demand the
publication, and IL 1t shall rid the great ole
party of an incubus of shame, the public
will thank us for It.

Political Notes.

NEW YORK, Aug. 14.-The Suns Wash
ington special says: Republicans are coloni-
zing negroes in West Virginia by the car
load, to vote for Blaine. A prominent Dem
ocrat said: "The tactics of the Republican
managers In the State are to bride and cor
rupt voters, and the feeling against Elkins is
so great it would probably be unsafe for him
to show himself in the State. The Demo
Gratis will have no easy job to carry the State,

Suns Augusta special: The Republicans
of this State have practically completed all
the details of this canvass. They expect
10000 majority. They will be content with
5000. If they get over 10000 they will go
wild. The Democrats concede 5000. They
will work to cut down the majority. Blaine
will not leave Maine during the campaign.

A Sun editorial. after reviewing the evil

we are forced TO conclude that If things now

In the United States of America a man less
likely to be nominated than Gov. Cleveland,
of Buffalo.
Boston, Aug. 15.-Capt. Ellsworth, Chair
man of the Executive Committee of the
American Political Alliance, said to. day that
the membership of the order is more than
475,000. Gen. Grant is proposed as its cam
didate for President. Capt. Ellsworth SAYS
"Though he has not as yet sent us his Off
clal acceptance, we feel assured, as he has
not declined the honor, and from private ad-
vices, that he will run" Gen. Fremont is
expected to accept the nomination for the
Vice Presidency. When asked If the ALI
ance had any connection with the old Know
Nothing party, Capt. Ellsworth said: Eyes,
sir, It has. Its platform is the adoption of
the Know Nothing belief in its broadest
sense. It believes in America for Americans
only, and condemns the elevation of any
foreigner to the dignity of office" The in
terview further developed the fact that the
Alliance was formed in 1872. In 1876 its
influence was thrown for Hayes, but in 1880
its members were allowed their choice Of
candidates of other parties. The Captain is
sanguine in his expectations for this fall,
claiming Louisiana, Maryland and Florida,
and possibly Virginia.
