Professor Salmon thinks there are about
2,400 cattle quarantined, and not 5000, as
stated. If the disease spreads to healthy cat
tie they will, of course, be isolated, as the
diseased ones now are A strict watch is be-
ing kept up at the stock yards for signs of
the disease, but no evidence of it have been
discovered
DR.. Salmon said with considerable feeling:
II have seen a great deal of this disease and
of other matters affecting stock interests, but
l never yet saw anything gained by hiding
the truth. This is genuine pleuro- pneumonia
and have put myself on record as so report
ing it TO the government, the statements of
interested parties to the contrary notwith-
standing. There has always been opposition
to the facts here in Chicago. 1t was the same
when the trichinB epidemic broke out. II
the truth had been acknowledged then, and
proper provisions made for the examination
of the pork, our meat would now be going to
Europe without question:
The live stock commission has not been
able to have full meeting yet, though ten
days have passed since the disease was dis
covered in dangerous form. The much
talked of slaug hter seems as far off as when
governor Oglesby was here last week. :.
Five OF the six government inspectors who
under DR. Salmon's direction will cooperate
with toe state board IL extermlnatlng pieuro-

that the quarantined animals in the infected
places viii not be Immediately slaughtered

the healthy ones from those that show signs

have been already.

Methods of Evarts and conklinr.

People have been RECALLED from time to time
with samples of the oratory of William NJ
Evarts, in which single sentences have been
given of more than 200 words each. As a
contrast we may mention Roscoe Conkling's
address to the jury in the case of Farnsworth,
receiver of the Bankers and Merchants Tele-
graph company, against the Western Union
Telegraph company, q pamphlet of forty
eight pages. in which the speaker uttered no
paragraph larger than sixteen lines, including
12o words, and this in five sentences. There

A Lawyers Novel Plea.

A very subtle plea was put forward recently
at Ofenburg by the counsel of an individual
who was being tried for having used insulting
language respecting the late King Ludwig II
of Bavaria. The lawyer proved that the au-
thorization for the trial had been signed by
the king on June 8 last, but that the report
of the medical experts, read in the Bavarian
assembly on June s. had established the fact
that the king, at the time he signed the docu-
ment, was no longer a free agent The court
entered a nolle pros. accordingly.-Boston

A Friend of Reporters.

Alexander H. stephens-peace to
his ashes-was the friend of the At
lantic reporters when he was Cover
nor" says the Constitution. "His
treatment OF the scribes illustrated
the way in which he always looked
after details. He never allowed any
OF the secretaries in the executive OF
lice to give out news. Reporters were
to be sent to him. AS the Governor
never went near the Capitol, the sec
retarles had a long rest from report
ers. Every evening about seven
clock the reporters would go to the
Executive Mansion and walk, like
home folks, INTO the Governor sroom.
They would find the great commoner
IN his roller chair, smoking pipe, and
resting from the days labors. He
near y always had some good stories
to tell in addition to the news, and
the reporters would never be anxious
TO leave. Often Mr.. Stephens would
have the points OF news, the executive
orders, etc, copied and ready for the
scribes, and the entire visit OF the boys
would be taken up with story telling.
The reporters had good time, and
got all the news. Nh Stephens never
suppressed anything the public felt an
interest in, but he always insisted on
giving the information directly from
his own lips"

An Aristocratic Gumboil.

Commenting on recent social event,
the Rochester Union very pertinently
observes: Rich Americans are inter-
ested at the collapse OF theengagement
between a certain New York heiress
and Lord Cairns, formerly Garmoyle
(vulgarly GumboiD, an English swell.
The lady, Miss Grant, is young, rich
and beautiful. The lord has become
widely known through the famous
breach-of-promise suit brought against
HIM by Miss fortesque. an actress, to
whom he had to pay $4,000 in lieu
of his affections. The fool, the black
guard and the peer seem to be mingled
in his lordship to the exclusion OF other
qualities, but the New York girl found
herself willing to marry AN earl, even
such Il one as he, and very nearly did
SO. What upset the match is said to
have been the peers demand that the
lady should pay all his debts. She re-
fused, and now, rs q metropolitan
Journal expresses it: "Her friends are
much pleased at herescape from con-
nection that promised anything but
happiness, Notwithstanding thegltter
OF an earldom." The disinterested
reader will hardly think the ladys
happiness is a matter OF much mo-
ment. When the woman is ready to
buy or to sell, and the man to sell or
to buy, other people may Justly be
amused ii they haggle over the price.
These dre not the sort OF lovers that
all the world loves.

Conviction of Criminals.

New York Letter.
Burgess, who endeavored to poison
his wife, was detected and convicted
by letter he had written to his para
mour and confederate in crime Had
it not, indeed, been discovered he would
have escaped, but never before has a
criminal been convicted solely by
letter. There was but one witness for
the prosecution on the stand, ana his
testimony was of little Importance,
the letter alone being sufficient to lead
the Jury to a verdict which must con-
sign the author to long term at Sing
Sing. A very similar case was that OF
Dr.. King OF Coburg, which occurred a
number OF years ago. He had poison
ed his wife, but within week after the
funeral a letter was found III his over
coat pocket addressed to a young
woman. This led to suspicion, and
the result led to his conviction and
execution. IN the present instance
the man failed of his object, and hence
a state prison sentence takes the place
OF the galloWs, though he richly deserv-
ed the latter. Going back in our own
record to the time when John c. Colt
was under death sentence, our sheriff
(the late Monmouth b. Hart received
an envelope containing 81 900 in cur
reUcy with thepromlse OF 81 900 more
if he would let the day of execution
pass without performing the sentence.
Hart handed the $1,000 to the city
treasurer, and this is the only instance
OF bride money devoted to pubic use
in the city.
