Meeting of Stockmen and
Statesmen at the Capitol.
Measures to be Taken Against
PIeuro-pneumonia,
Bills, Resolutions, Committees
and Other Work.
Cattle Committee at Washington.

Washington, January ia meet
ing OF the members of the house com
mittee on agriculture and the members
Of the committee appointed by the cat
tlemen recently at Chicago. was held at
the capitol. A general discussion Of
contagious diseases among cattle was
INDUCED in.
Hunt, of New Jersey, said il con-
gress would appropriate an adequate
amount payable to the order OF the au-
thorities OF the different states, and
protect New Jersey for six months
from the importation of diseased cattle,
that that state would in six months
stamp out rleuro-pneumonia from its
territory.
DIR. Law, of the cattle commits sion
treasury department, said the disease
was undoubtedly the result of importa-
tion. He said with plenty of money
and n federal law, it could be eradicat-
ed in twelve months. He advocated
burning the buildings where The dis
ease occurred.
Judge Carey, of Wyoming, gave a
history of the disease, saying it was
like the Asiatic cholera spreading
through Europe, reaching New York
forty GEARS ago. 1t existed on the con-
tinent of Europe, in Great Britain,
Australia, New Zealand and this coun-
try. All that saved the west from this
disease was the line of transpo. tat on
from east to west; had it been other
wise, the western plains would be at
feeted. and once in existence there it
would spread over the entire country
and could not be stopped. He said
that one hundred million dollars was
invested in the cattle business in the
United States.
The legislation proposed to make the
shipment of cattle known to be dis
eased a penal o~ffense, establish a cattle
bureau in the department of agricul-
ture, increase the power of the commits
sloner of agriculture. provide funds for
the elaborate investigation of diseased
cattle, and provide an appropriation for
the purchase of diseased cattle so they
muy be destroyed. The appropriation
asked for the first year is $500, 900.
