Cattle Discasc i'm Chicago.

AT a recent conference between members
OF the Live Stock Commission and officials
OF the stock yards in Chicago, Mr.. Pearson
said that the Commiss 'oners had decided
to kill all the cattle now in the Phoenix and
Schnfeldt distlleres (ovcr 1000 head, and
that upon post mortem examination all dis
eascd cattle would re cremated and all
healthy sold to the highest bidder. Presi-
dent Sherman, President of the stockya1ds.
replied that millions Of dollars would be
lost to the packing interests Of Chicago if
the report went out that beef from the in
fected distilleries, healthy or not, was be-
ing shipped from Chicago. Mr.. Pearson
then informed the gent men that the Com
mission had only $4,000 with which to
compensate the owners of healthy cattle.
and that if none Of the healthy beef was
utilized the State would be Mt an expense of
double that amount. He then suggested to
the stock yards men that they buy up
healthy beef and help the Commissioners
out OF their dilemma. He said the Com
mission would exhaust the appropriation in
hand. No decisive answer to the PROPOSE
ton was given. Excepting 400 cattle owned
by the Fairbanks Company, Of which Mel
son Morris is President, the minority Of
5000 under quarantine belong to men de-
pending on their two or three COWS for a
living. When the news Of the extension of
the quarantine reached them they were
thoroughly aroused They say the State
will be obliged to destroy all the Leef, and
the quarantine extension is conspiracy TO
keep the disease among the quarantine cat
tie until slaughter takes place.

Pronounced q Hoax

Washington special says the story of Il
treaty with CANADA, which came in recent
dispatch has no foundation in fact, so far
as the alleged facts are stated to have been
submitted TO President Cleveland and Sec
rotary Bayard and agreed upon. No nego-
tiatons for any treaty with Great Britain
on the part of the United States have been
entered upon since the convention which
was laid before the Senate at its last session
and was left Enacted on. 1t is within the
limits of possibility, Assistant Secretary of
State Porter says, that the prospect for the
suggested convention amendatorv of the
treaty of 1878 may have been forwarded by
the British colonial office to the Canadian
Ministry for suggestions, but no credence
IS attached to the statement that modlica-
tons of details have been teicgraphed in
cipher by Sir John Mcdonald to the Brit
ish Minister here is purely imaginary and
untrue. The British Ambassador does not
receive instructions OF suggestions from the
colonial authorities.

Russia's Mi,itar, Strength.

Gen. p. NJ. B. Young. OF Georsia, Con-
sui General to st. Petersburg, who is in

says this of Russia's milituy strength and
OF the Czar's Eastern policy: "Inside Of
twenty-four hours Russia could have an
army of 625, 900 men OH the move and in a.
month could SO add to it that she would
have l,500,000 men ready for action; and
they would all be soldiers, too, not raw re-
cruits, for Russia has a reserve Of men who
really belong to the army, but who are not
under pay. In this way Russia is able to
keep up such powerful military establish
ment. She has thorough soldiers in Ii +
reserve, and they cost her nothing, except
when she calls them out to fight l do not
believe that Russia would for q moment
seriously consider the question of fighting
England for India The reason for her ut
titude Oh the Afghanistan frontie, is sim
ply because She wants to let England know
that she must not interfere with Russio.
Her position in regard to India is simply
menace to England. She holds England
i'll check by the implied threat conveyed by
her activity between Merry and the Casnlon
Sea. AS for Afehanistnn. RUSSIA does
not want that country either. If she did,
all she would have to do would be to take
it, She could do that very easily. What
Russia is working for on the frontier is tne
friendship OF the Ameef That potentate
is now Engl,nds friend. and Russ IL is I'M
dermining that country's influence with
him. That is al she is now working for
in that direction. She does wan. Con

has between fifty and eighty thousand men
