The Deadly Cattle Disease Prevalent in
New Jersey-can be Transmitted in MIX
The state Health Authorities Have
Taken Action.
Trenton, Aug. 1.-The state board Of
health and Dairy Commissioner George
Mcclure are considerably alarmed to-
day over the reports received from the
inspectors throughout the state giving
the details of the rapid spread among
the cattle, horses and mules of the dead
ly disease known as anthrax,
The reports indicate that the disease
is rapidly spreading to all sections of
the state, and over 100 head of cattle,
horses and mules have succumbed to
it within the past ten days. Just how
many cases there are in the state at
present the state authorities are unable
to say, but the belief is that they will
run UP into the hundreds.
So alarming has the disease become
in Salem and Cumberland counties that
the state board after a brief consulta-
ton employed DR., H. G. Powell presi-
NfNAAS VI NAiN A'A4NSSAOll lONeNl 6OoAN "
health, who is specialist on anthrax,
who, with a corps of assistants, is di-
rected to make farm-to-farm tour
through the two counties and stamp out
the disease if possible The doctor is
empowered to draw on the state for any
amount required to accomplish this.
Each of DR.. Powell's assistants is
equipped with hypodermic syringes and
quantities of anthrax preventive. They
are directed to inoculate all healthy
COWS, horses mules, sheep, goats and
swine in their district Other physi-
clans with the same Instructions may
| be sent to Essex and Hudson counties
and also here in Mercer, where the
disease is reported to have broken out.
| The state board Of health has no
hope of saving any animals that have
already taken the disease, it being so
deadly that by the time it develops
sufficiently to be known to the medical
| examiner, the animal dies. The only
hope of saving the herds, the state
authorities say lies in incubation,
which produces a mild form of the
| disease and acts as preventive of a
more acute attack
The deadly scourge is communicable
| to man, and Dairy Commissioner Nc
Guire is greatly exercised for fear that
| the large quantities of milk daily ship
ped to New York city and Philadel-
phia from the affected districts will
| cause an outbreak.
He has sent Special Milk Inspector
P. L. Vandegrift to Cumberland county
and a corps Of inspectors to the northern
part of the state with specific instuc-
| tions to destroy all milk from the af-
fected diaries. But already thousands
OF gallons of this milk have been shipped
to the metropolis, for the farmers and
dairymen of some of the affected dis
tricts, fearing to lose their business and
profits, have failed to report cases OF
anthrax as promptly as they should.
Little is known of anthrax by the
medical authorities When an animal
is affected there suddenly appears q
swelling of the glands, similar to thai
of diphtheria In the human being, and
before any assistance can be rendered
the animal drops dead. The discharge
is always fatal to man.

Salt Lake, Utah, Aug, Ia dispatch
from Soda Springs, Idaho, received at
l;2o this morning, said that wagon loads
of ranchers and their families, comprls-
ing all the settlers in Gray Lake re-
.glon, and many persons from Blaekfoot
River, arrived there yesterday.
They report that the Indians have left
Jaekson's Hole and are moving south
via the Salt River trail, A band Of In
dams numbering from 700 to 900 camped
at point ten miles east Of Carrlboo
last night Couriers were sent out to
warn settlers on the lake, and all start
ed in night for Soda and have been ar
irving all day.
One woman who received a warning at
2o'clock yesterday morning packed her
children into wagon, and when she
arrived here her baby was still UNI
dressed, Just as she had snatched it
from the bed. The woman is COM
pletely FRUSTRATED with fright and ia
tigue.
Couriers sent from Gary's lake to
warn the Star Valley settlers found all
the ranches deserted. They afterwards
learned that all settlers there had gath
cred in the upper valley and were pre-
pared for defence
| The best posted men here in Soda
Springs think that the Indians are Civ

back to the reservation.
Jackson's Hole Wyo,, July 80, by
courier to Market Lake Idaho.-The
| United States representative arrived
this morning and the situation looks
very mild. Strange to say the first per-
sons spoken to in Jackson's Hole We're
not frightened settlers moving out but
party of Utah people coming in.
There are about twenty-five men here
now, the others being scouting the To-
| cation Of the Indians. The several
scouting parties number some thirty
| five men.
Irving Wilson, a young man who was
with the shooting party of two weeks
ago. said the leader of the party who
arrested twenty-five men, was Bill Man
ming, the constable. When the bucks
were arrested they were not searched,
which Wilson ADMITS was grave er-
ror Manning anticipated a break
away, in fact, all signs were for one,
but took only the precaution of telling
| his men to shoot at the Indians horses.
| Wilson said he knew nothing of the
number Of horses shot in obedience tc
his command, in fact, he is not sure
| that any We're.
| There Is remarkable lack of knoWl-
edge about facts Of this kind evinced
| by the settlers. There is some talk Of
/ other Indians being killed in the noun
tains, several persons having come in
to tell of having killed several bucks
| When asked the direct question as tc
whether he believed these stories, Mr.
! Wilson admitted that they sounded tall

Aug. PATSY Dolan of Southbury
has his leg cut off by a freight train

his legs amputated. His left leg was
cut off by the train in Hartford some
years since and the bone became dlseas-
ed, SO that the same leg was amputated
twice afterwards in the New Haven
hospital, The sound leg was the one
cut off this time. 1t was done in the
night and he corded it with his hand
kerchief and suspender and as another
train came along the conductor saw him
and they carried him into the Bridge
port depot. 1t was feared he would not
live, having lost so much blood, but
he is now out of danger and with his
accustomed grit declares he will soon be
around on cork legs as lively as any
Of them. He is cared for in the Bridge
port hospital.
