lie. To efficiently keep up single Quaran-
tine is difficult matter, but when we attempt
to maintain 500 or 1000 at time, it is task
that can only be accomplished with an i'm
mense force and an immense cost. The COM
missioner narrateS the unavailing efforts to
maintain qugrantine during the outbreak OF
pleuro-pneumonia in Kentucky in 1882, first
by force of public opinion, then by the joint
efforts of the state board and the department.
of agriculture, and describes the suppression
of the disorder, two years after the outbreak,
only when the legislature had authorized the
slaughter of the infected cattle. II have re-
Gently had reliable reports from that vicinity"
the commissioner continues, land am sat
istied that no case of pleuro-pneumonia has
occurred since the slaughter OF the infected
cattle in March; and in my opinion,
THE LOSS INFLICTED
upon the cattle breeders of Kentucky by the
infection and its consequent results would
have been entirely prevent cd if there had
been authority for this department to have
caused the prompt destruction of infected
herds when the plague was first discovered.
The commissioner closes as follows: 81 desire
to urge the necessity of legislation granting
to this department power to carry out the
measures required for eXtirpating pleuro-
pneumonia untramelled by state laws or
state authorities, if it is expected to promptly
suppress this disease. The task is a difficult
one at best and fear that under any plan Of
cooperation our history will be that of
England where, for years, the failure of local
authorities to enforce the required regula-
tions has not only perpetuated the contagion,
but allows such frequent and alarming extern
SiOnS as have lately occurred"

A STREET CAR WRECKED.
1t Comes in Collision With a Train
and HAVOC Follows.

CHICAGO, Dec. 27.-A few minute be
fore Z o'clock this morning stock yards
car left ON ell street with the usual crowd
on board. Three minutes later it crossed
the bridge over the river and slowly went
down the grade toward the tracks OF the
Chicago 81 Alton railroad. The conductor
ran ahead to the tracks to see if any train
was coming. AS he looked down the track
he saw the st. Louis express dashing down
toward the crossing, and he Slgnaled the
the driver to look out. The driver set the
brake, but slowly and surely the car slid
down the grade on the tracks. The driver
and conductor yelled to the occupants OF
the car, but the windows were thickly
coated with frost and it was impossible to
see out, and the fifteen men and boys did
not know of the danger which was so close
to them. The engineer of the train saw
the street car and blew the whistle repeat
edly. 1t was impossible to stop the train,
and in another instant the engine struck
the street car. 1t was knocked into Spllnt-
ers and the passengers were thrown in ev-
ery direction. Those who witnessed the
accident rushed to the crossing expecting to
see many dead. but happily no one was
killed. Four men lay on the ground groan-
ing in pain. They were picked up and taken
into neighboring drug store A hasty ex-
animation was made and then it was seen
that beyond few slight bruises, none Of
the men had suffered injury. In the mean
time the train had been checked, but after
making sure that no one was killed, it pro-
ceeded into the city.

ATHEATER BURNED.
Heavy Loss by Fire at philadelphia
1.-TWO len Ruried In the R miNs.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 27.-Fire broke
out in the basement OF the new Temple
theater about II o'clock this morning, and
the entire building was soon enveloped in
flames. The theater is owned by William
NJ. Singerly, proprietor of the Philadelphia
Record. The roof fell i'll at 2:40 o'clock,
and taking portion OF wall with It,
buried three firemen under the heavy timber
and stones. One OF the men, Hugh Col
gan, was dug out alive, but the others,
John johnson and John Gibson, are still
buried under the debris and cannot be
reached. They are dead beyond all doubt.
The theater with its Improvements, cost
Mr. Singerly $4O0, 900, and was regarded as
the handsomest theater building in the
country. The insurance on the property
amounts to 1927, ,00O The fire was gotten
under control at about s o'clock tonight.
the flames having but kept within the walls
Of the theater building The building and
its contents, however, are completely de-
stroyed. Portions of the front and back
walls are standing, but will have to be torn
down when new building is erected. Mr..
Singerly paid for the ground and building
$225, 900, and expended S175.O00 on re-
modelling the structure and $50 600 for tlX-
lures, etc. On these losses there are in
surances amounting to S125,O00. Mr..
Singerly claims, however. that there has
been decided increase in the value of the
ground since he purchased the property,
and that his net loss after deducting the
insurance will be less than $100. 900.
George G. Brotherton, lessee of the
theater, will lose about $25, 900 on seen
cry, stage settings, etc, on which there
is an insurance OF $500. The loss on the

The United States For Evil

Commissioner Coleman's Report On
the leuro-Pneumonfa Ep1-
demic.

WASHINGTON, Dec, 27.-The president.
although still suffering from rheumatic
pains, is somewhat easier to-day. Abso-
lutte quiet and rest are necessary for his
cure. He was obliged to deny himself to
callers to-day, and the usual afternoon re-
ception was omitted. He remained in bed
most of the day. DR.. @. Reilly. his attend
ing physician, said to-day that the presi-
dent is improving and would, he thought,
be able to be about tomorrow, but he
would have to keep very quiet for few
days yet He attributes the recurrence of
the trouble to the presidents unwillingness
to remain quiet any length of time. The
president said to Col. Lamont last evening /:
Il had my OWN way when l was sick be-
fore, but guess [ will let the doctor have
his way this time.'' The present attack is
not SO serious as the first, and it is expected
to yield more readily to treatment. The
president expects to be able to carry out his
programme OF receptions beginning with
the one on New Years day.
Col. Lamont says tonight that the presi-
dent is in improved health as compared
with last night. and that his condition is
steadily growing better. The president in
tends to rest quietly tomorrow, and it is
thought that by the day after tomorrow he
will have recovered from his indisposition.
Gov. Hill, of New York, was to have spent
a few days with the president this week,
but postponed his visit owing to the presi-
dents illness and the death of Gen. Logan.
The visit was to have been purely social
one.

Prosecuted bV His Sister.

NEW YORK. Dec. 27.-William K.
Soulter. formerly Of the banking firm of
w. K. Soulter & Co., which failed in Sep
4ember. 1885. with heavy liabilities. has
been indicted by the grand jury for grand
larceny. He is accused of misapproprat-
ing the estate of his grandfather, James 7.
Soulter, who died in 1878. making the ac-
cused his executor of the immense prop
erty. The complaint is made by his sister,
Charlotte, Duchess DAnxy, one of the
heirs of the estate, through counsel who
acted for her in civil proceedings based on
the claim over q year ago, which is now
pending before referee. 1t is asserted
that the accused has applied S1SO,000 Of
the estate to his business. There are four
indictments, one of which charges that he
used ten bonds of, the city Of Mobile, Ala,
valued at So, 900 each. Mr.. Soulter was
to-day baiied in S150. 900 to answer. His
bondsman is deacon" S. V. White.

How Negroe. TURF, white.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 27.-Dr. J. v.
Shoemaker, of this city, laughed heartily
yesterday when shown a newspaper article
giving the alleged wonderful case of a
negro man and woman who had turned
from black to white. and whose transforma-
tion could not be explained. 1t is not an
uncanny skin disease" he said, land is
known as teucodermer. In white people
the skin turns milky white, but it is more
noticeable in colored persons. OF course,
owing to the contrast with the dark skin.
The change of color is caused by the de-
struction. or rather absorption of pigment,
which is not formed again and is not pain
full. The disease can only be cured when
it is taken at the very start. 1t is, not
fatal, and the only bad effect is the de-
formity or piebald color it causes. 1t is
quite common among the negroes in the
South. where it is often produced by

Springfield, who rendered a choice of places

various organizations of that city, and from
influential personal friends. There is reason
to believe that if Chicago makes suitable

A Lively Fight.

TRINIDAD, Col, Dec 27.-Sunday two
young men named George McCember and
w. w. Wearthwax attempted to rob store
keeper named Morgan at Stonewall, thirty
five miles up PurgatOry valley. They told
Morgan to throw up his hands. and, while
Morgan turned to reach for revolver, Nc
Comber shot him in the back. Morgan's
clerk came into the store to see the cause of
the row and was badly wounded. The muir
derers fled and were followed to Trinidad,
where they stopped at house of ill-repute.
They were discovered by the sheriff and
posse at 6 o'clock this morning. and an at
tempt was made to arrest them when a
fight ensued. The sheriff's posse literally
riddled the house with bullets, shooting
McComber through the right lung. Nc
Comber, however. who is still alive. says
he shot himself to avoid capture. Wearth
wax gave himself up.

IN A BAD TANGLE.
An Outlook for Serious Trouble
Among the knights of Labor.

NEW YORK, Dec. 27.-Organized labor
is in a bad tangle. which grows worse
instead of better. The dissatisfaction in
the Knights of Labor is growing more wide
spread, and some members of the order are
afraid that the present difficulty can only
result in split. There seems to be little
doubt that the legal requirements for call
for special session Of the general assem-
bly will be fulfilled within short time, or
that the call will be signed by district as
sembles in at least half dozen states,
perhaps twice that many. Among the dis
satisfied element. however, the feeling is
that no matter if the call is made out ac-
cording TO the constitution. there is no GER
tainty that the session will be held. One
of them said yesterday:
One of the principal things against which
we protest is the assumption of dictatorship
by the general executive board, and their
evident intention to override the constitution
whenever it conflicts with their own ideas.
If Mr.. Powderly should refuse to call the
special session, what could we do? The gen.
eral worthy foreman, the next highest officer,
would not take any action. General Secre-
tary Lichtman certainly would not nor would
the executive board, for with the single ex-
ception OF Barry they are all in accord with
Mr. Powderly. Our only remedy would be to
call a special session ourselves and then all
who attended it would be in open revolt and
would be either expelled Or suspended. This
would mean a split; and whether or not we
are prepared for this I am not able to say.
But it may come to that. / should be exceed
ingly sorry to see it, but if the order is to
continue to be of any use in the labor move
ment something must be done pretty soon.'
THE SAME OPINION
was expressed by many other knights.
Even some of the members of District No.
40. the leaders of which are in thorough ac-
cord with the general officers, show signs
OF a disposition to kick over the traces, and
ONLY the iron discipline maintained by T.
B. Mcguire, the former master workman.
who is now on the general executive board,
keeps the dissatisfaction from being shown.
The local fight between the knights and
the open union grows in bitterness, and the
time is not far off when open warfare will
be proclaimed. The action of the trades
unions in Columbus in the formation Of the
American Federation Of Labor has encOur-
aged the trades unions. 1t is said on good
authority that j. II. Cassidy, one OF the
most prominent members Of the American
Society of Carpenters and Joiners, an
nounced last Sunday that he intended Ito
declare war to the knife against the knights
of Labor" The knights show no DISPOSE
tion to shirk the fight, and if they and the
unions do not find some common ground on
which they can stand, the chanceSare that no
strike will be won by the carpenters Tor some
time, for the knights will take the places OF
the striking trades unionists and the union
lists the places Of the knights when they
strike.
