A PLEURo-PSEUMo FRAUD.
Cattle InoeuIated 20 Sell to the Gov
ernment for Slaughter.

LoSG ISLAND CRY, y. Y, Dec. 27.-
Inspectors OF the bureau OF animal
industry of the United States have
unearthed q novel swiudling scheme
1t has been the custom, since the bu-
Teau extended its operations to
Queens county, for all cattle killed be-
cause OF being infected with plearo-
pneumonia 70 he appraised ana paid
for out of the United States treasury.
The apprai ed value has averaged $50.
The swindle Just discovered en-
ahled the perpetrators to pocket from
$40 to SIS each for a large number of
cattle condemned and slaughtered
The swindler would procure a small
farm in the town of Newton or Jamal-
other places droves of cattle
purchased at from $50 to s25 per head.
The carcas>es of some cows which had
died of pleufo- pneumonia would then
be obtained and exposed near the cat
tie sufficient length of time 10 insure
incubation with tue disease. iuSpec-
tors visiting the farm would pronounce
the herd infected. and an appraise-
ment and slaughter would follow.
Although the inspectors have no
doubt whatever that the owners OF cat
tie have perpetrated deliberate swim
die, they have been unable to obtain
conclusive evidence 10 warrant arrests.
In order 10 prevent any more such
swindling the chief inspector has de-
cided 10 pay for no more infected cat
tie. 1t is believed that the treasury
has been defraude of between $40 1000
and soc by dishonest cattle dealers
during the past year. One man alone
had three herds condemned.

hardly sanguine enough to expect
representation in the cabinet, we
would be pleased TO furnish member
for the secretaryship of the interior.
We transact so much land business in
our country that it is only fair that
this official should be selected from the

OF a secretary OF the treasury who ad-
yocates more coinage.
OF the alleged atrocities purported 10
have been committed by the Alsaka
Fur Company employes on Alents,
he saws that these stories have no par
ticle Of truth in them. As far as the
outrage part is concerned, they are
originated by jealous people who are
sworn enemies OF the Alaska Fur Com
pany and do not want to see their
lease renewed in 1880.
