ErOIlI SICK dallIe.

From SICK fattles
CHICAGO, Oct. Sat last nights ses-
sion of the board of livestock commits
sioners, James Lynch of the Shufeldt
distillery, proposed to the commission
that owners be allowed to remove their
cattle if found to be in perfect health.
The commission thereupon rendered a
decision that will set the stock yards
people by the horns. It was declared
that if upon ante-mortem examinations
AN owners cattle were declared
sound he could take them out
and slaughter them. Then a post
norton examination wonld be held
by the inspectors, authorized by the com.
mission and il no disease was found the
owner could do what he liked with the
meat sell it, or destroy it rs he choose.
This is exactly what the stock yards Off
cials and business firms say ruin their
business, and what they particularly pro-
test against
Secretary Johnson in reported as say
ing "There is no reason why the state
or the government should pay tor healthy
cattle aud destroy them. The law itself
is against it. The stock yards people are
the only parties interested in destroying
the meat and if they want the healthy
animals destroyed their only course is to
buy them.n
Two cows were found dead at the
Ph@nix distillery yesterday and two more
new cases of sickness were found.
Commissioner of Health DeANolf said
last night unless the sick cattle were sep
arated from the healthy ones that he
would issue an order Thursday forbidding
the sale of distillery milk; this order
would have been issued two weeks ago
had he understood what he has just
learned-namely that the owners have
been selling milk from sick and well cows
indiscriminately. This notice caused
much complaining among the milklusn,
who are clamorous for some decided aG-
ton. MIR. Ames of the Phoenix diBtillery,
intimated before the board that if some
thing WIS not done soon the siop feed
would be shut of, leaving the owners and
the state to take care OF ], 100 head of
cattle.

DEATH OF WILLIAM @. GTBBDNs.

Company Expires suddenty nj

The President of ahe Pussy a. Jones
Company Expires Suddenly at
Second nnd Poplar Streets.
From Every Evening Of yesterday.
William q. Gibbons, President of the
Pussy a. Jones Company, died suddenly
at Second and Poplar streets, about 3
o'clock this afternoon.
Mr.. Gibbons, who was on his way to
the Office, suddenly felt i'll aud entered
the grocery store at the north east corner
of Second and Poplar streets, where the
proprietor seeing that the sickness was
dangerous, spread out some bags on
which Mr.. Gibbons lay down, but in
about three minutes expired, it Is sup
posed from apoplexy or heart disease.
A question being raised as to the right
to move the body without permission in
the absence of Deputy Coroner Palmer
from the city, Squire Yandegrift gave the
necessary permission and the body was
removed by Undertaken Mitchell to his
late residence, No. s05 West street.
Mr.. Gibbons was about 81 years old,
and was native of Chester county. He
came to Wilmington when young man,
about IS years ago and entered the office
of Gibbons & Hilles, the predecessors of
Seidel q Hastings, in which firm his
brother, Mr.. Richard P. Gibbons, was
partner.
The deceased subsequently acquired an
interest in the same firm and remained
there until he entered the office of Pussy
d Jones, some 80 years ago. In this
capacity he rose until atthe incorporation
of the Pussy d Jones Company, January
29th, 1879, he became its president, q
position which he had since held.
Mr.. Gibbons figured but littlein public
life, concentrating bis energies mainly
upon the advancement of the great ship
building establishment which he had
done 80 much to bring to its present
prominence. He was occasionally called
upon, however, to preside at important
meetings Of his party, the Demo
cratic, acting for the last time
in that capacity in the campaign
of two years ago. He was actively inter
ested, however, in the welfare and pros
perity of his adopted city and when the
Water Commission was created consented
to serve as one of the members of that
body, being succeeded in that capacity by
Mr.. Carmichael. He was closely connected
with EVERY EVENING, having been q
director in this company ever since it's
organization. OF his private life ii may
be truly said that those who knew him
best were his warmeBt friends.

CHICAGO, Oct. ga special from Win
nipeg says: Particulars of q customs
sel@ure of Montana cattle for alleged non-
payment of duty have been received, and
are as follows:
"Twelve or fourteen days ago the
Northern Montana Cattle Company started
u herd consisting of l,66S head of cattle
from Fort Benton with the intention Of
driving them across the international
boundary to Medicine Hat on
the Canada Pacific railway and
shipping them from there by
rail eastward to Chicago via St. Paul.
The necessary papers were made GU.
showing the herd 20 be in transit and
were in charge Of the company's agent
accompanying the herd. After crossing
the boundary severe storm came on and
the cattle, becoming unmauageable, made
westward for the Mcleod district. On
reaching Leith bridge, the customs officer
at that point, unacquaintsd with the sys-
tenn in vogue of shipping American cattle
via the Canada Pacific road, seized the
entire herd and placed mounted police
men in charge, although he was
shown the proper papers, showing the
herd to be in transit After OBTAINING
them several days he agreed to accept the
cattle company's bond for $4,000 and
allowed the cattle TO be shipped. II is
understood his action will be the subject
of investigation, as the Canadian Pacific
Railway Company has taken up the
matter.n

The wife and two children of John
Dousherty, Waterman at the Union
National Bank, living at Twelfth and
Lincoln streets, were poisoned Sunday,
it is supposed, by eating fresh pork, as
they have no other poison about the
house. Mrs. Dougherty, her daughter
Elizabeth, aged II years, and son Philip,
aged 10, were the only ones who partook
freely of it, and they are the ones who
suffered most severely. All three began
to yomit soon after eating the meat and
were considerably relieved. They are
now doing we'll and will recover. Mr..
Dougherty did not ent any of the meat
and the other three children ate but little
and none wore taken sack. The cause of
the trouble was trichinae.

UnsnVOry Reports OF the celebrated
Catholic Priest From California.
A dispatch to New York paper from
San Francisco says that Monsignor Capel
received very cold reception in Cali
fornia from the archbishop and the regu-
lar Catholic clergy. He stayed at the
hotel and not at the Cathedral palace and
lectured under the auspices of the Jesuit
fathers, who ore at fued with the See.
Catholic society also ignored the former
fashionable prelate of London and not o
single church offered him q pulpit.
A still more unpleasant scandal is now
attached to the Monsignor's name. He is
charged with breaking up the homo of
Count Valeusin, who invited him to spend
some time on ranch on the Sacramento
river. The affair between hush and and
wife is now in the courts.
The clergy of New York generally de.
cline TO discuss Monsignor Capel, although
a majority convey the impression that
they are in no manner surprised by the
report. A few, however, say that the &C.
cused priest has been prosecuted by his
superiors, with whom he quarreled prior
to coming TO America, and that they have
thrown their influence against him with
the American hierarchy.

What mrs B4yaEd Wtit Probably DO
in the Cutting Case.
Philadelphia Press special,
WASHINGTON, Oct. 3.-Secretary Bayard,
who will be back at his desk early this
week, is expected to turn his attention at
once to the questions growing ont of the
Cutting difficulty, Mr.. Sedgwick, the
special envoy of the department, who
made the trip to Mexico TO investigate the
affair, has his report ready and in such
shape that the information can be brought
on the case OF once. 1t will be used not
only in the further negotiations with
Mexico, but will also be in pretty copious
quantities in the paper ON the subject
which Mr.. Bayard will contribute
to the Presidents annual message.
It is said among Nj. Bayard's friends
here that he will not recede from his
original position in the matter and that
reports to the contrary are calculated to
do him an injustice. He will instruct
Minister Manning, it is said, to resume
the negotiations which were broken of
by the departure of Mr.. jackson and will
endeayor to secure the agreement that il
the extra territorial jurisdiction statute is
not repealed, 1t shall never be enforced
again in the case of any American citizen
