END OF TEXAS FEVER.
Cattle Will Be dipped Like Sheep
Previous to Shipment

The Kansas state live stock sanitary
commission and W. e. Skinner, general
manager of the Fort Worth, Tex, stock
yards, are considering the adoption of a
plan which will revolutionize the cattle
business of the west and south and open
to the markets of the north two and one
half millions of cattle which now held
below the quarantine line at the COM
plete mercy of the packers.
These cattle are prohibited in the mar
kets of the north because they are reared
in infectious territory.
The Fort Worth Stockyards company
proposes to inaugurate a system of
dipping cattle in watts, containing a
preparation guaranteed to kill the Texas
fever ticks. thereby Kidding the cattle of
disease and placing them upon a footing
equal with native cattle who have never
been exposed to the fever.
This is distinctively a new plan. 1t has
never been attempted in the United
States SO far as cattle are concerned. The
only process of dipping known in the
west is that to which sheep are subjected
to cure the scab.
Last year shippers and small feeders in
Kansas drained Arizona. This year the
safe area in Texas will be drained to a
similar extent and then the cattIenen
must look to some other source for cat
try In the north where such cattle are
available. The markets here have been
limited The opportunity is in the south
but there it is henmed in by the quaran-
tine line. To go below that line is de-
cidealy dangerous, a fact which is evil
denced by an example just reported from
Montgomery county where the grand jury
has indicted ]. e. Turner and Dan Late
for bringing infected cattle from the I'M
safe area infSa KaDRaS
Were the restrictions removed by the
dipping process the Kansas buyer could
go into the markets of protected Texas
as the quarantine line now stands, and
have free access to the immense herds of
cattle which can not now be reached.
Mr.. Skinner and the members of the
sanitary commission held a conference
with the governor today and left at noon
for Kansas City where the subject will be
discussed with Albert Dean, the govern
n1ent live stock inspector. Mr.. Skinner is
prepared to demonstrate that the pro-
posed plan of dipping cattle, will destroy
the germs of disease incident to Texas
fever. If that can be done the cattle will
be admitted to Kansas. but the commits
sion will not pass Judgment upon the
matter until convinced that no danger
will arise.

Lathrop Wins Over Melton.

WASHINGTON, July 25.-The President
appointed Lathrop to-day in self-defense
and upon. the assurance that no objection
would be made to his Immediate confr-
nation. Outside pressure for other can
didates p%recipitated the action to-day. It
was not the Presidents intention to make
the appcintment until after the adjourn
ment of congress, but the Melton demon
stration decided the matter. 1t is a Web
ster triumph and so it will probably be
to the end of the South Carolina appoint
ments.
Both Melton and Won Kolnitz say they
will not acceptsecond place under Lathrop,
but they may reconsider. No promises
have been made, Webster says tonight,
in the appointment Of the two assistant
attorneys. Judge Evans of Marion, it Is
understood, is slated for one as the assis-
tants. Webster is "cock of the walk"
and Lathrop's appointment may be ac-
copied as an expression of the Presidents
policy in making South Carolina appoint
ments.
Col. r. M. Wallace arrived to-day and

Capital News and Gossip.

WASHINGTON, July 2l.-President Nc
Kiuley was the recipient to-day Of an
unique complimentin the shape of a huge
Georgia watermelon. Several members OF
the delegation in Congress, accompanied
by a number of ladies and w. N. Mitch
ell, of Atlanta, the southern freight agent
of the Baltimore and Ohio, made the pre-
sentation in the Blue Room Of the White
House. The melon was about two and a
half feet long and measured six feet in
circumference. It was packed in a gold
en- hamper, wrapped in the American
flag and entwined with white silk ribbon,
on one end of which was the flag of the
United States and or the other the arms
of the State of Georgia. 1t weighed sew
enty-eight pounds. 1t was secured by
the Southern office Of the Baltimore and
Ohio, which offered a prize for the largest
melon grown in the South this year. The
States Of South Carolina, Georgia, Flori-
da and Alabama competed for the prize.
Representative Livingston made the pre-
sentation speech. In doing 80 he referred
to the adage about the Greeks bearing
gifts, and assured the President, when
opened, no ofice-seeking enemy would
emerge. The President made a happy
response, saying among other things that
he was especially gratified for the assur-
auces that it contained no ofice-seekers.
