CAPITAL BRIEFS.

The encouragement has given an opinion
to the president sustaining the eligibility of
Mr.. Lawton of Georgia, for the appointment
as minister to Russia.
The silver men expect the whole power of
the administration to be brought against
them in the next congress. and say that the
fight has already begun over the organization
of the house. They say Mr.. Randalrs friends
are working for him for the speakership, and
are backed by the administration. They
charge that the influence of the administra-
ton is now being used to strengthen Randall
if persevered in will "bust up the demo-
cratic party and they will crush out the ad
ministration. They do not think that there is
any danger of Mr.. Carlisle being beaten, but
they expect Randall to exhibit more strength
this time than he did before. The combined
power OF the tariff and the anti-siver men
they say, will be exerted to this end for the
sake of prestige, and that from twenty to
twenty-five members will be drawn over to
Randall and the administration by the use of
patronage.
A decision was rendered by the supreme
court of the United States on the 18th in the
case of Frances Dodge ct al appellant, against
Thomas Knowles, which presents the ques-
tons of the liability of married woman for
certain debts contracted by her husband,
nominally as her trustee The court holds
that neither liability for provisions supplied
at the dwelling house where the husband.
wife and their children are living together,
nor provisonary note given by the husband
describing himself as trustee for his wife in
payment for such supplies can be charged in
equity upon the wife's separate estate, with
out clear proof that she contracted the debt
in her own behalf or intended to bind her
separate estate for its payment. The decree
of the court below is reversed and lie case
remanded with directions to dismiss the bill.

FOREIGN NOTES,

A dispatch to Reuters Telegram company
from Cairo says it is believed General Wolsely
will soon return to England.
Recruiting for the British navy continues
with much activity and the admiralty have in
vitcd the navy pensioners to volunteer. Ac-
tive preparations for war are making in all the
Australian colonies.
Lord Edmund FitZmaurice, under foreign
secretary, in answer to an interrogatory put
by Sir Stafford Northcote in the commons,
said the government considered Penjdeh in
Afghanistan proper, but not far from the
Russian frontier.
1t is stated that Turkey has positively as
sured Russia that in the event of war no Eng
lish irOn-clad will be allowed to enter the
Black sea. Turkey has also declared that she
could make the Dardanelles impossible in a
few hours if necessary.
The emperors of Germany and Austria and
he czar of Russia are arranging for another
meeting to be held this spring. The place
chosen for meeting is the castle of Galacian
nobleman in Austria territory close to the
Russian frontier. 1t is understood that En-
peror William desires yearly meeting of this
kind as means of preserving peace between
the three countries.
In the English cabinet council the Anglo
Russian difficulty, it is said, was represented
to be as follows: England and Russia have
agreed upon basis for the delneation of the
Afghan frontier, subject to a satisfactory eX-
PLANTATION by Russia of the recent attack upon
the Afghans. According to this scheme it is
said Penjdeh will be ceded to Russia, provided
the ameer consents
General Komaroff has appointed a Russian
governor of Penjdeh and has put Sarik Off
cia,s in charge who are Russian subjects.
Everybody in st. Petersburg is convinced
that if war breaks out the Russians will seize
Herat before the English can turn around.

the London Times correspondent, General
Komarof advanced with express orders from
the government of the Caucasus and General
KOmaroff's telegram TO st. Petersburg ex-
preSsly stated this"
Gladstones hesitation over the Kushk river
affair emboldened Russia who is now taking
turn in demanding an explanation and with
drawals. The report is confirmed that De Giers
demanded an explanation of the presence of
Captain Yates of General Lumsden's staff at
the Kushk river battle of the part he is said
to have taken in provoking that enga ement.
Special dispatches from St. Petersburg assert
Russia demanded the withdrawal of Lumsden
himself, on the ground of his pronounced
sympathy with the Afghaps in their hostility
towards Russia, but this statement is doubt
full. The government is still wrangling with
Turkey over the terms of the proposed Anglo
Turkish alliance.

PLEURO PNEUMONII IN MISSOURI.


That the Commissioner Of agriculture says
Concerning the Plague.
An Associated Press reporter asked the
commissioner of agriculture Tor information
respecting the outbreak of pleuro pneumO-
mia III Missouri. He said in reply that the
disease had thus far been confined 10 IL single
county, and Inat the people OF the state were
acting energetically and intelligently for its
eradication. Their great difficulty was the
lack of funds. He thought the lepi lature Of
Missouri ought to be called together to make
more liberal provisions 10 meet this emer
gency, but there was doubt whether its mem
bers had been educated up to the point of
taking the only efficient means possible for
The suppression OF this scOurge. 1t was, he
sid. fact that no outbreak of this disc sc,
either in the United States or abroad, had ever
been suppressed without government AID
The bureau of animal industry OF the depart
ment, while rendering invaluable services,
still lacked the power under the former in
which experience proved to be the most eff
fective IN cases of this kind. There was no
known way of suppresslng pleurO pneumonia
but by killing every animal which had been
either effected or exposed. Having been
killed they should be buried deeply,
hides and all, for the disorder
was communicable after death. The
original law establishing the bureau of ami
mai industry gives authority for the expendi-
ture of such portion of the annual apprOpria-
ton as may be necessary for invest cations
and quarantine, but does not in direct terms
authorize the expenditures of money TO help
pay for cattle to be Led. Mr.. Coleman is of
the opinion that lndSfnucn as Oedtn only
means uisinfection where piem o-pneumonia
is concerned fair Interpretation of the law
would sanction the expend ture OF portion
of the appropriation for this purpose. He
intends to lay the matter before Attorney
General Garland for an opinion. The insid-
iOus and alarming nature of the infection
was, he said. illustrated by the origin of the
present outbreak. A young bull was pUr-
chased in Ohio or Illinois and taken 70 Mis-
souri,. 1t was suggested as a possibility at
the time of purchase that the animal bad
been exposed to pleuro- pneumonia and for
this reason 1t was quarantined three months,
after which it was allowed to run with herd
belonging to the insane asylum Almost i'm
mediately the herd became disinfected. The
entire herd has been slaughtered about 1GJ
animals being killed. but the comm ssiOner
thinks many more should be sacrificed. In
the expenditure said the commissioner. OF
$1,000 now may save US an epidemic which
will perhaps cost haf million to suppress
two or three weeks hence.
