the owner took this means of getting her away
from his premises. If not already So it should
be made illegal to convey infected animals from

owners of diseased animals should be compelled
to bury them instead of hauling them out into
old fields, to poison the air and spread disease
At any rate the county authorities should have

Southern had agreed to haul 30 car loads
Of grain for j. r. TOllison, grain broker

CITY OF MExIcO, Aug. 13.-The Cabi-
net, after protracted discussion, has de-
cided on the nature Of the reply to be
made to the representatives Of the rail
way companies on the question Of whether
the railways were TO be exempted from
the operation of the decree of June %.
The government has decided that no ex-
cepti0n shall be made in favor of the
railroads, and that the law OF June %
shall be enforced TO the letter. Subsidies
VIII not be paid and not one cent OF the
customs revenue will be appropriated TO
the railroads, which will have to
submit to the eXigences of the
situation. Tho government maintains
that it owes the railroads nothing.
except a small amount Of subsidy which
would have accrued 10 them since
the publication of the decree, and this
amount, ana that falling due in the future
months, will be included IN the govern
ment floating debt. The government will
not even deliver up the subsidy certif-
Gates TO railroads. claiming that the roads
have no right to them, and
that even if certificates We're still receiv-
able tor customs duties the government
would not be Obliged ia deliver up more
than enough 90 keep the railroads sup
piled with the amount required to cover
theirmonthly subsidies. The government
objects 10 the railroads amaesing a largo
amount Of certificates, and using them as
security for loans, and considers that IL
was enient 10 the Central road before in
permitting the Central TO Issue debentures
with subsidy certificates as security.

L0ND0N'S LAST SCANDAL.
MISS FRANCIS ACCUSES HER
FATHER OF BLACKAIAIL..

Intimacy with Mr.. Pearce Admitted bu6
the Charge Of Seduction Pronounced
Untrue--A Horrible Version OF tho
Affair tSiven to tha Public by the
Father.
LONDON, Aug. 18.-Mr. Francis, the
gentleman who yesterday fogged Mr..
Pearce, of the Glasgow ship-building firm
OF John Elder q Bros, for alleged betrayal
Of the formers daughter, to-day insti-
tuted criminal action against Mr. Pearce.
Yesterday the latter explained the diff
Guilty to reporter OF the Pdy Nall Ga
zette by saying that the charge Of seduc-
tlon was false, and that the whole thing
was but case Of blackmail Of a pe-
culiarly bad kind. For this statement
Mr.. Francis brings his action. He says
that he thought that Mr.. Pearce had done
him wrong sufficiently cruel in betraying
his daughter, under the Ruise OF friend-
ship, without adding the insult OF de-
scribing his family as one of blackmailers.
STANDING OF THE PRINCIPALS.
Mr.. Pearce Ia a rich Conservative. and
had been selected by the Tories to stand
as their candidate for Glasgow in the
coming election. He was recently APP
pointed to represent the British shipping
interest on the royal commission to i'm
quire into the causes of the depression in
the English trade. Mr.. Francis s gem
tleman OF respectable social standing, and
is member Of the government civil sers
vice, being an inspector of customs.
PEARCE's ATRoCIoUs CRIME.
The crime of which Mr.. Pearce is ac.
cused is one of remarkable atrocity. He
beguiled the cirl away from her home five
years ago. kept her secluded, butin luxury,
in London two or three years, until he
tired of her, gradually neglected TO pro-
vide for her necessary living, and when
she appealed to him for assistance, through
the laxity OF the lunacy laws aud accom-.
mOdatIng doctors, had her incarcerated in
alunatic asylum. Herparents here found
her and took her home. She had never
been insane, but had been hysterical when
she realized that she was abandoned by
her betraYer.
Dir. Pearce, the shipbuilder, says that
he does not intend to notice the action OF
Mr.. Francis in bringing suit against him
for libel on a charge of blackmail, believ-
ing, he says, that Mr.. Francis Is ''cranky.v
Mr.. Pearce to-day attended the first sit
ting Of the Commission on Trade Depres-
sion.
MISS FRANCIS UPHOLD5 PEARCE.
Miss Francis, associated with the
Pearce-Francie scandal, admits that she
WAS intimate with Mr.. Pearce, but SAYS
that he did not betray her. She has not
seen him for three months, and since tho
separation she has been trying to earn an
honest living. She exOnerates Mr.. Pearce,
and says that her parents only wish 10
blackmail him.

PEoRIAs ORooKED BARREIs
A Cargo Of $50 Packages Seized at a
Philadelphia Depot.

A Cargo Of 100 Packages Seized at
philadelphia Depot.
PHILADELPHIA, PA, Aug. l3.-Another
seizure OF Peoria whisky was made yes
terday at a railroad depot In this city.
The cargo numbered about packages,
and was composed OF "funny" barrels Of
the same pattern as those recently found
in a Wholesale liquor establishment. 10
has been learned that this fraud Of
Western distillers upon the revenue II
confined 40 far as IL known % several
large concerns in Peoria. Three OF
them have already been arrested
In using barrels. and they have been ship
Ming them far and wide. To just what
extent the fraud has been practiced can
not be told vet because the matter IS still
under investigation. The scheme Is re-
garded as one OF the most gigantic
swiudies ever attempted upon the govern
ment. and the entire country has been
hooded with crooked barrels. They are
so constructed that gauger's rod and
caliipors d0 NOT give the true register Of
the contents of the package. When the
iiouor has been poured out into buckets
IA mas been found that u measured a
creator quantity than tho gauge rods
showed. This led 10 the investigation and
eoIxure.

MUzzLrNG THE PRESS.
Panamss "stRr and Herald" Notified

fAnama's "StRr and Herald" Notified
Not to Publish Governmental News.
PANAMA, Aug. 13.-The editor Of the
Star and Herald received a notification
the other day that he should publish no
more news or matter relating TO govern
ment affairs unless the same was sent di-
rect from the different Secretaries of the
government in the public departments
to which such matter related. The reason
alleged was that that sheet was
hostile to the government and that
martial law allowed the latter to
muzzle the press. The Star and Herald
published this notification, and informed
its readers that hereafter no news of any
sort relating to Colombian affairs, either
official or otherwise, favorable or un-
favorable, would be admitted to it's
columns. Denied the right of free speech.
no official utterances would be allowed
space in Its columns. The movers against
the free press seriously contem plated
suppressing that paper, but they were
informed that 1t belonged TO an American
company, and that they would consult
the best interests Of the country by leav-
ing it alone.
