the disease exists, and that cattle have
been sold from affected herds which
have been sent to other States, notably

Gov. Hamilton he recommended until
all localities in which the disease exists
have been made public that Kansas
shall quarantine against the world, and
admit no cattle unless they undergo y
strict quarantine for period of twenty
days. The Live Stock Sanitary Com
mission will consider the matter at a
meeting to be held in a few DAYS.
