Mexican Cattle Barred Out of Texas

AUSTIN, Tex, Dec. 25.-In view of the
fact that the live stock sanitary commits
sion of this state has been reliably in
formed that a malignant disease known
as spenetic or southern fever, exists
among the cattle in large part of the
republic of Mexico, and as there are no
sanitary regulations in that country to
prevent the spread of the disease, Gov
ernor Hogg yesterday issued a procla-
nation declaring a quarantine against
all such cattle.

The Governments Gold.

New YORK, Dec. 22.-Subtreasury Of
ficials say an effort is being made in
New York to juggle the governments
gold. Exporters are very anxious to
get hold of full weight coins and gold
bars and bricks with the government's g
stamp of fineness on them. Uncle Sam
has SAC, 100000 worth of these, but in
order to cut down exports, some time
ago the department made it rule to re-
deem treasury notes only in gold coin.
The lightweight coins complained OF
are all within the legal limit, one-half
of l per cent, but the shippers have felt
the loss and have sorted the coins, keep
ing the lightweight ones at home. The
banks objected to taking them, and one
foreign house took lot to the sub
treasury and asked that they be re-
deemed in paper. This the treasury
officials declined to do, saying the re-
deeming of paper promises to pay did
not carry with it the reverse duty of re-
deeming gold in paper. The only thing
left to do was to deposit the gold in the
bank, whence it would work it's way
back to the subtreasury. The assay
Office has received novel proposition
from an exporting house. It wanted to
deposit American gold coin and have it
melted into stamped bars. The propo-
sition was declined, though if the coin
was light or mutiIated it could be re-
deemed.

In Holland.

AMSTERDAM, Dec. 23,-Heavy foods
have been caused by the storm in, Hol-
land. The River Mas and the Rotte
rose twelve feet, inundating parts of
Rotterdam. Boats were nsed in the
streets, and in the market places. Many
of the dykes threatened to give way un-
der the heavy pounding of the sea.
In several places the water succeeded in
breaking through in the vicinity of the
breaks, and the country is flooded.
Nine houses collapsed. At Utrecht
several persons were drowned by the
capsizing of a boat. Telegraph and
telephone wires were everywhere
broken. The bark Caroline, from
Savannah for Hamburg, went ashore
near Egmondsee and became a total
wreck. Her cargo is being washed
upon the beach. Part of her crew were
drowned.

Heavy Snow Storms on the
South Side of the
SiskiyOus.
THREE PASSENGER TRAINS TIED UP
The NOrthbound is at Dunsmuir, One
sOuthbOund at EdgewOOd and
Another at HOrnbrOok.

ASHLAND, Or, Dec. 22.-The storms
which prevailed during the past week,
blocked traffic on 1.-THE Southern Pacific
on the south side of the Siskiyous to
Dunsmulr almost completely yesterday
and today, and three overland passen-
ger trains, one northbound and two
southbound, are blockaded in that Sec
tion. The severity of the storm is great
est on the south side of the Siskiyouss
and through the upper Sacramento
canyon in the Black Butte country, and
in the vicinity of Sisson and Edgwood.
Snow fell at the rate of foot an hour,
and for a time there was binding,
raging storm. There is reported along
some sections of the road, a depth of
eight feet of snow. On the Siskiyous
there is only about four feet. At Ash
land there is none. The railroad bet
ween Ashland and Hornbrook, on the
further side of the SIskiyou pass, is clear.
All the telegraph wires are down from
heavy weight of the snow in the vicinity
of Sisson and Edgwood, for some dis
tance, and this has retarded the move
ment of the forces working to clear the
track. Snow slides, carrying rock and
earth, having added to the difficulty.
A big rotary plow was put to work yes
terday near Edgewood, but broke down
this morning, and had to be sent back
to Dunsmuir for repairs. 1t reached
EdgWood again this evening at o'clock,
and started to work. The railroad
people expect that the road will be
opened for the passage ef trains before
morning.
No new snow snow has fallen today,
and that gives further encouragement.
The overland train, which left San
Francisco Thursday evening, is lying at
Dunsmuir now. The southbound pas
senger, which left Portland Thursday
evening and left Ashland yesterday at
noon, is at Edgewood, blocked. The
southbound passenger train that left
Portland last evening arrived here nearly
on time this morning, and was here un-
til about O'Clock this afternoon, when
it started south and crossed over the
Siskiyous without difficulty. 1t is now
lying at Hornbrook. Reports from
Sisson and Dunsmuir country indicate
that the storm has been as severe as
any ever experienced there, and the
snowfall greater than eyer before known.
Travel by snow-shoes is the only way
to travel. Further south in the vicinity
of Delta, the storm has been mostly rain,
Some rock .and earth slides were re-
ported last night from that region, but
it is thought there will be no serious
trouble there. On this side of Ethe Sis
kiyou mountains there has been no
snowfall to speak of, and there is none
lying on the lower grounds. The rail-
road has made no effort to run freight
trains during the past day:or two.

If someone told you that England

you would think it wasn't so. And
again, if someone told YOU that, on
the other hand, Uncle Sam, who is
supposed to have all the land at home
that he can attend to really owns

would doubt that, too. But both
statements would be true.
