TUBERCuLous CATTLE KILLED.
The Post-Wortem Examination of
GrnnfIand Herd Made Yesterday.

Dr. T.. p. Niles. State Veterinarian. as
sisted by Or. Thomas Sweeney. yester-
day conducted a post-mortem examina-
ton over cows found to be infected in
an examination held Tuesday at the
farms Of Messrs. w. j.. Grant and j.
W. Penick. at Grantland. on the James
River Division OF the Chesapeake and
Ohio road. a large crowd accompanied
the veterinarians from this city. among
them being Dr Oppenhimer. of the
Board OF Health; Drs. Paulus a. Irv-
ing. Jones, Ellis, and Blankenship. and
a number OF members Of the Board Of
Health and the City Council
Nine COWS were killed. and every ami
NAL showed wei marked generaIizeI
tuberculosis. Al but one were milch-
cows. two OF which showed tubercu-
losis Of the udder The diseased cows
which were not killed We're removed 10
Brooklani Farm where they will re-
main in quarantine. The infallibllisy Of
the tuberculosis test was Thoroughly de-
monstrared zoo this instance Not more
than Cre or two Of the diseased COWS
could be diagnosed as tuberculous bv a
physical examination. One cow. which

which was in fair condition. was killed.
Jul hlt'l I'D see NiiftNHI OF not any Als-
eased COWS had escaped unouced No
indication Of the disease was found. No
better demonstration Of the accuracy Of
the tuberculosis test can De gotten than
this.
The per cent Of tuberculosis I'm the
dairy herds OF this and other sections Of
the State will reach about % per cent. In
the tests made on a few dairy herds in
this section the per cent. has been on an
average Of over 80 per cent I'm the Grant
land herd Of dairy cows proper the per
cent was about 33.
None but healthy animals are now IN
the Grantland herd. and certificate OF
health was given to the oWners-AIessrs.
Grant and Penick.
The pOst-mOrtem examinations were a
thorough demonstration Of the fact that
consumers Of milk I'm this city are not
getting pure milk. and the opinion was
expressed by many who Witnessed these
evidences of disease that the Council
should at once pass an ordinance re-
qurug that all milk sold within the city
limits shall come from COWS proved TO
be healthy by an official dairy Inspector.

No Bulldozing on the B. & o.

The reports which have been in cir
culation for some time regarding the
bulldozing process going on along the
line of the B. & o. Railroad in order to
intimidate the employees aud prevent
them from exercising their rights of
franchise as American citizens, exists
solely in the minds of those who, for
their own reasons saw proper to circu-
late such unjust reports. Messrs. Cow
an and Murray have perfect right to
present their side of the case to their
employees and do all that honorable
men would do to gain converts to their
cause. So, likewise, have other gentle
men connected with this great corpor-
alton who differ with the above named
gentlemen the right to advocate their
side of the question. The conductors
on the B. & o., as rule, are men of
character and their manhood would
rebel at any coercion as to their rights
as citizens. The engineers, the brake
men, trackmen and general employees
will not be bulldozed or threatened
with dismissal in the event of their
voting their sentiments at the ap-
preaching election. We speak thus
positively because we deem it unfair to
the gentlemen at the head of this cor
poration to have them unjustly accused
regarding such an important matter.
We know personally many of the men
connected with the B. & o., and we
have their word for the statement we
thus publicly make that every man
will exercis his own judgment and vote
as he may think best for himself, his
family and his country.

great big failure. Well, who would
have thought it, with the electric cars
running TO Middletown, the stars shin
ing brightly in the heavens, pat iotism
on tap and the gold bugs upon the
front seats. What is the matter? The
speakers were all 0. K; as national
orators they have their names in the

Used an outpouring of the united fac
tions of the Republican party of Fred
erck. But the boys would not take heed;
they did not unite worth cent, and
black were the looks of the gentleman
who draws eighteen hundred dollars
a year from the government. 1t is
even intimated that he is going over
to Wellington, as he believes the MOtter
and Pearre factions can not deliver the
goods. Well, if he does there Will be
blue blazers all along the line and the
fine old Irish gentleman will realize
that Frederick man can raise small
sized cyclone, especially when Pearre
gives them an Alleganv County
swing. The meeting was tame, in
other words the peoples hearts and
best wishes are with the gallant Bry-
an, who is 50 anly fighting the mil
lionaires and all the trusts and corpo-
rations of the country. 1t is hard for
them to take part in a fight against
their own kith and kin.
