she Eeppcry KANSAS senator.
TOPEKA, Nov. Ex-senator Ingalls, will
not succeed himself in the United States
Senate without hard fight The legis-
lature which will choose his SUCCESSOR
will be elected year from now and the
Republican majority will be by no means
so overwhelming as 1t has besn hereto
fore, Judging from present indications,
and eantor Ingalls, seat may be said to
be in danger.
Tbs thing that complicated the eitua.
ton, 40 far As Ingalls, ia concerned is the
growing sentiment in favor of resubmit-
ting the prohibition question to a vote Of
the people with the end in view of repeal
ing the Law On this question this battle
will be fought next year. Senator Ingalls,
has already declared himself on the
question. He said: "Rebubmission is all
nonsense. The people don't want it.
| Ihey'Ye got what thty want--prohibi
ton. II tue question were submitted to
a vote it Womb carry by more than the
famous 80 600 majority"
IL may seem nonsense to the senator,
but it is dead earnest question TO mauy
| other Republicans in the state, and one
of the strongest opponents of ingalls, will
be J. O. Foster, iudge of this United
States circuit court OF this place. He is
o Rtpublican, and he announces that hs
has sent in his resignation to join in the
resubmission crusade aud contest Mr..
Ingalls, seat. He is very popular in Kan

troller Matthews made decision
yesterday In the matter of gov
eminent telegraph rates. The final de.
cision of Postmaster General Wanamaker,
promulgated on October Both, fixed the
average rates at about one.half what

Lines Telegraph Company submitted a
bill for messages sent by the treasury
department from July LIST to October

first named date. The first comptroller,
to whom the bill was referred, yesterday
made his decision 20 the effect that the

same subject, and it will affect all the
other companies that carry government

Quarantine In Cnos,er county. PA.

Nh u sAs
WAsHIEdroY, Nov. IS. Secretary
Rusk's attention was called to sn item
sent by telegraph from Harrisburg, Pa,
relating 10 the quarantine of GONE IL
herds ~ cattle in Chester county, Pa, by
the agents of tho department of sgricnl-
tu"3 sud stating that tho department had
exceeded their authority in tho matter.
The Secretary say5 that the state suthori-
lies of Pennsylvania had notified the
burenu O. animal industry that they hsd
found an oUtbregk Of contagious pleuro.
pneumonia among cattle OF Upland, Ohes.
ter county, In that state, and that two
OF the animals had proved 10 be so
diseased by post mortem held by
the state veterinarian. In accordance
with the rules ard regulations
OF the department made by his prede-
oesaor, Secretary Coleman, under the
Law Of Congress creating the bureau, an
Inspector was sent to Upland, and arriv-
ing there he placed quarantine upon
sill cattle that had been exposed to thoss
said to be diseased. He found that the
premises where the alleged outbreak &C.
cured was cRttle.yard, from which
cattle were sent to the Philadelphia
markets and from thence transported to
other states and territories. For this
reason 1t was believed necessary that the
premises and exposed cattle should be
quarantlned in order TO prevent any
spread of the alleged disease TO other
states. The action of the department
wss taken simply for the purpose of pro-
tecting the great cattle interests of the
country and to guard against any posi-.
BILE dissemination of the dreaded disease
OF contagious pleuro. pneumonia, for
which special purpose the bureau of
animal industry was established by Con.
