DISEASED CATTLE.
Ohicago Greatly Exercised over a
Prevalent Bovine MaIndys

CHICAGO, September 24.-Chicago is
greatly concerned over q cattle disease
prevailing in the suburbs. II was pro-
posed to kill all cattle exposed to the
disease, hold post mortem examinations
on each carcass and sell those exhibiting
no signs of disease for beef. This Is de
clared Objectionable as rumors would
soon be cast abroad that diseased meat
was offered for sale in Chicago. Her
eastern and foreign trade would surely
suffer and Gamers would not dare to
handle beef, as a large part OF their
trade is with foreign countries and they
would not take the risk Of having edicts
issued by other nations prohibiting the
importation OF American canned beer.
During discussion Of the Commission
ers IL was developed that should the
5000 cattle now under quarantine be
slaughtered, and either cremated or sent
to rendering establishments the expense
would probably reach 500, 600. An ad-
ditional $50, 900 wonld be required to
replace the sheds. If burned. 1t was
finally decided that all cattle now quar-
antned in tho Phoenix and Shufeldt dis
tilleries, numbering 1000 head, should
be slaughtered.
