Now that Maine, New Hampshire and
Vermont have established quarantine
regulations that prohibit the importation
of cattle suffering from tuberculosis, the
state of Connecticut appears to be the
ia yorite dumping ground for diseased
herds. AS considerable portion of the
milk supply of New York comes from that
state, the papers of Gotham are beginning
to show uneasiness upon the subject. The
use of the tuberculin test furnishes an
absolute method for determining the pres
enoe of this dread disease, and the various
states of the Union are rapidly coming to
appreciate the Importance Of its USE We
remember with what indignation the
Massachusetts press resented the state
ment, by the chairman of the Maine cattle
commission several years ago, that the
herds OF the old Bay state were fairly
honeycombed with tuberculosis. and yet
the Investigations Of the Massachusetts,
cattle commissioners during the past year
or two have fully demonstrated the truth
of that statement 1t is evident, however,
that this condition of affairs will soon be
changed there, If the present energetic ef-
forts in that direction are adhered to.
New York has perfect right to demand
that the Connecticut farmers, who find
market for milk in that city, shall awake
to tho Importance of this subject, and that
prompt and effective methods be adopted
to free their herds from this dread disease.

THE GERMANS
Put Out Over France and Russia Sc.
curing a Chinese Loan.
The German Syndicate Will Seek an En-
tente With the English Financial
House in the Matter of Good
Share of the Larger Loan.

BERLIN, June TO- The news Of the
Franco-Russian loan of $50 900, 600 to
China has proved to be disagreeable
surprise both to the government and
to the leaders in financial circles who
had been relying upon official action
to secure large share of the Chinese
loan for Germany. Immediately upon
receipt of the news of the Russian coup
the members of German syndicate,
Royal Seehandlung is the head, COM
municated with the financial depart
ment of the government upon the
prospects of Germany's securing the
main indemnity loan, which will
amount to S15O, 900 or 5000, 1000, 900,
and negotiations were also resumed by
the syndicate with the London Roth
schilds on the question Of the cooper
alton of English bankers in the scheme.
The syndicate has received prompt
assurance that the government will in
tervene to obtain for Germany a share
in such further financial arrangements
as China may require. AS the $50, OOO,-
600 now guaranteed by Russia covers
only the indemnity to japan for the
surrender of the Lia-Tong peninsula,
German financial houses are confident
that China must have recourse to them
to float the larger loan, which Russia
could not guarantee nor French finan-
ciers supply without outside assist
ance. The German syndicate, with
the approval of the government, will,
therefore, seek an entente with the
English financial houses in the matter
of the larger loan.
In the meantime the political impor-
tance of the Franco-R Russian arrange
ment is keenly felt, and it is probable
that that loan will not be admitted
into the German and English markets.
This. at least, is the feeling of the syn
dicate, which includes in it's member
ship the Bleichroeders, the National
bank of Germany, Behren g. Sons, of
Hamburg; Won der Heydt & Co., the
Dresden bank, the Schaafthausen
bank and other leading financial insti-

FAIRMoNT, w. Va, June 1O.-About
o'clock Sunday night fire broke out in
Crawford's livery stable, at Cameron,
town of 1,200 population, between
here and Wheeling, and at midnight
the stable, hotel, drug and two general
stores and several dwellings were de-
stroyed, the post office, Baltimore &
Ohio Railway Co. S warehouse and many
more dwellings were in flames, and
there was every prospect that the en-
tire town would be in ashes by day.
light High winds were prevailing,
and the water supply of the town was
exhausted, with the exception of that
contained in the railroad company's
tanks, which was being used as last
resort with but very little effect.
Aid was asked both from here and
Wheeling, and steam fire en-
gine left the latter place at II
o'clock for the scene, though it is
thought the lack of water will render
it useless. Telegraphic communica-
ton is now cut off, which is taken as
an indication that the Baltimore and
Ohio depot has been burned. The loss
at midnight was estimated at $4,000.
No loss of life is reported.

European Delegates Refuse to Have More
To DO With the Turkish.
LONDON, June 1O.-The Daily News
Monday published dispatch from
Turkish Armenia, dated June 8, and
sent via Kars, Russia, dated June 9.
The dispatch says that the Armenian
commission that was sitting at Moush
closed on May 81, the European dele
gates telling the Turkish members
that they could have nothing more to
do with them. The final cause of the
rupture was the refusal of the Turkish
commissioners to examine important
witnesses, basing their refusal on pure
ly farcial grounds.
OThe Daily News, commenting on the
dispatch, will say that the attitude of
the Turkish commissioners has been
invariably increasingly dishonest, and
that their recourse to bribery and coer-
cion was prompted and ratified by the
highest authority in Constantinople.
Great Britain has appoint ted a vice con-
sui for the Vilayet of Bitlis. He will
reside at Moush.

Cuban Expedition From Florida
Joined by 1000 Men.
Gen. Comes, Reported Killed, Has Invaded

the, Fla, in the Early Morning.

KEY WEST, Fla, June 1O.-It is now
known that the expedition which left
Wednesday night landed on the north
of Cuba, in the province of Las Villas,
near Sagua Lachico. The expedition
was under the command of Gen. Roloff.
Immediately upon the landing they
were joined by 1000 insurgents, under
command of Zayas, Castillo and Reyes.
1t was undoubtedly the best equipped
expedition that has left the United
States in the cause of Cuban liberty.
Gen. Gomez, reported killed by the
Spanish newspapers, has invaded
Camaguey at the head of 2,5O0 of the
best equipped men. At Camaguey
Gomez was joined by 700 men. The in
vasion of Camaguey is considered of
great advantage to the insurgents.
The province of Camaguey is guarded
by the best Spanish forces. Martinez
Campos, who was in Camaguey at the
time of the invasion by Gomez, imme-
diately left for Havana and called a
meeting of the reformest and conserva-
tive parties, with the idea of a fusion.
The home rule party, being ignored,
has decided to disband, the OBJ
ject being to create bad blood
or race war, Cubans against
Spaniards. Many young men of
the best families of Cienfuegos,
Santa Clara and Remedies are joining
the insurgents. In insurgent official
circles the death of Marti is denied. II
is reported that Cuban who deserted
the insurgents stole Marti's CORE
spondence and delivered the same to
Gen. Salcedo. This is the foundation
for the report of Marti's death.
1t is rurhored that another expedi-
tion has landed, consisting of three
generals, one American, South Amer.
ican and a Cuban.

Applauded and Free Silver Roundly De-

Held at Winchester, Ky.

Applauded and Free Silver Roundly De.
nounced by Democratic Convention
Held at Winchester, Ky.
WINCHESTER, KY, June S.-The dem.
ocratic convention called to nominate
railroad commissioner for the Third
district Friday afternoon speedily
evolved itself into a wild demonstra-
ton against free silver. President
Cleveland and Secretary Carlisle were
indorsed and Gen. p Watt Hardin,
tion of governor, was hooted and de.
MED hearing.
In fact, the proceedings at Ovens
boro were completely reversed. 1t was
the delegates who did it. The leaders
were afraid to touch the question. No
one knew what the temper of
the convention was until it chose
to express itself. Congressman
w. NJ. Beckner was made tenn
porary chairman, and Capt. T. d.
Markum temporary secretary. The
following committee on resolutions
was appointed and retired immedi-
ately: Congressman A. S. Berry, of
Newport: j. A. Sullivan. of Madison;
]. @. Ward, of Bourbon; J. d. Black,
of Knox: b. NJ. Carr, of Morgan: Louis
-Apperson, of Montgomery; II. Ken
nedy of Nicholas; .. L. Pollard, of
Lee, and j. Strotter, of Carter.
While the committee was out the
work of nominating a candidate was
taken up. Those put before the con-
vention were G. r. Keller. of Nicholas;
Dewitt Hager, j. Smith Hayes and DR..
L. v. p. Williams. Hayes withdrew
before the ballot was taken and Keller
went through with rush.
He received ISL votes, and while the
splendid Duncan Band. of Carlisle,
played "Dixie" Mr.. Keller was escorted
to the platform and declared the NOM
inee. Meanwhile the committee on
resolutions was struggling with the
money plank in a parlor of the Reeves
house, opposite the convention hall.
After couple of hours the commit.
tee came in with four closely written
pages, which it announced was an
answer to the platform adopted by
the republicans at Louisville, and the
following on the money questions:
1--WE indorse the declaration of prin.
ciples of the national democratic con-
vehtion at Chicago in 1892 and the
conservative course of the party on
financial question, which has at length
restored confidence in the business
future of our country"
Several delegates were instantly on
their feet. Chas. j. Helm, of New.
port, gained the eye of Permanent
Chairman Rolla Hart.
THAT does not express our senti-
ments," shouted Helm, "and l want to
offer this, with the motion that it be
added:
'''Be it further resolved, That we
point with pride to that administration
at whose head is our matchless presi-
dent, Grover Cleveland, and in whose
council is the great and honored Ken
tuckian, Johns G. Carlisle, who has
guided the government from the abyss
of financial ruin to the threshold of a
prosperous future.
The name of Carlisle created thun-
derous applause, and the motion was
carried unanimously 1t was then that
Gen. Hardin left his chair across the
street and entered the hall with the
intention of making speech. 1t was
an unfortunate moment for Hardin.
He, however, was shouted down.
