this time forward. Otherwise the cat
tie are in good condition. Referring
to the quarantine law against which
there has been considerable outside
protest, he said that it needed revis-
ing in several particulars, and added
that the worst feature is the system
of fees charged by inspectors,
which requires owners of cattle
to pay them instead of the Territory.
inspectors get no pay unless they ad-
NIT cattle. You can see what a
temptation it is to let in cattle instead
of keeping them out" Gov. Ross
says there is no truth in the rumor
that he intends to raise the cattle quar-
antine.

The Appropriations Committee

The Appropriation Committee
Ready to Report--Physlclans and
Drummers to Be Taxed,
Special to Commercial Herald.
JACKSON, MISS, Feb. 23.-The ap-
propriations committee has completed
its labors and will make Its report to
the legislature in few days. The hi /
is now in the hands Of the State print
er. The ways and means committee
is hard at work and will report soon
after the appropriations committees
report is submitted. The privilege
list will be largely extended and the
revenue from this source greatly in
creased. 1t is highly probable that the
State tax will be increased from two
and half to three mills. The COM
mittee thinks the bill under considera-
tion will make good all deficits. Under
this bill it is thought physicians and
drummers who have heretofore been
exempt will be required to pay priv
ilege license.

THE OHIO ELECTION CASES
Dan Dalton's Application for Re-
lease on Habeas Corpus Re-
ferred.

COLUMBUS, o., Feb. 22.-Judge
Wylie, of common pleas court, this
morning decided the case of Daniel J.
Dalton, clerk of the courts Of Hamil-
ton county, on application for writ Of
habeas corpus. He was arrested at the
order of the house of representatives
for contempt, in refusing to produce
before the house or house committee
returns from precinct A, fourth ward
OF Cincinnati, for being photographed,
and also refusing to bring them out
side OF Hamilton county without an
order of the court. The application
was dismissed, and Dalton was re-
manded to the custody Of the sergeant
alarms. Dalton is not in town, and
the attorney general states that unless
he arrives here by the first train he
will forfeit his recognizance, which is
in the sum Of $4,000. The relator has
the alternative, under the house resolu-
tion, of either producing the returns
as required or serving specific time in
Jail.
CINCINNATI, Feb. 22.--The decision
of Judge Wylie, of Columbus, in the
habeas corpus case of Daniel J. Dalton,
creates the liveliest interest here. The
fourth ward returns, which are the
subject of controversy, are now in the
hands of the chairman of the senate
committee, which is here taking testi-
moDy concerning the election. A mo-
tion to photograph the returns is now
pending before the committee. 1t has
not been able to meet this morning,
owing to theillness Of senator Coulter,
Republican member, but it is thought
he will be able to serve sometime dur
ing the day. Rumors Of an attempt to
create disturbance in the committee
and destroy the returns has brought a
number of persons into lobbies. Daniel
j. Dalton is here, and says he will do
as his attorney says about going to
Columbus. His attorney proposes to
appeal the case to the supreme court.
The senatorial investigating COM
mittee held a meeting this afternoon,
without Senator Coulter, who was
too unwell to sit. The question
of photographing the returns OF
precinct A, fourth ward, was argued
at length until Mr.. Follett, attorney
for the Democrats, announced that, in
his judgment, the right to photograph
should be conceded. The Democratic
members Of the committee reluctantly
accepted his advice and Moses Van
Cleaf and Pringle were appointed to
have Photographic copies made and
allowed three days time for that pur-
pose. Mr.. Follett urged the utmost
dispatch in the matter, in order to re-
lieve Mr.. Dalton, who he said had been
acting throughout under legal advice.

A Case which Attracts the Atten-
ton of Physicians.

YOUNGSTOWN, Feb. 22-Hattie Stan
ley, aged eight years is suffering with
a disease which is attracting the atten-
tion of the medical fraternity. Two
years ago the child was attacked with
rheumatism, affecting the heart to
such an extent that it did not have suf-
ficient vitality to send the blood to the
extremes. Her hands and feet have
become lifeless and the child is slowly
dying of dry gangrene. The fingers
of each hand up to the knuckles are
black and withered and her feet pre-.
sent a similar appearance. The child
has suffered excrusiating pains for the
last eighteen months and looks for
ward to death as the only relief.
The disease is often with aged people,
but this is the only one known where
the sufferer was so young.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.-Hon. Geo.
d. Wise, Of Virginia, will endeavor to
get the floor tomorrow In the house Of
representatives for the purpose Of
making reply to the renegade Brady.
who recently cast reflections upon Mr..
Wise, at a thinly attended night ses-

Brady also attempted to disprove
Mr.. Wise's statement in reference to
the Norfolk navy yard and to defend
the infamous Malone party from the
charges made by Mr.. Wise.
The latter has some damaging polit-
ical letters against both Malone and
Brady, and the reading Of the same Is
apt to staTtle the renegades, and will
show the outside world what the Vir-
ginia people had to contend with under
Mahone's rule.
