issued by the Spanish government for
the release Of all Of the tobacco held in
Cuba for cSIaet to the United States,
under the prolIbitory rule OF Captain
General Weyler, issued last year Each
case is being treated on Its merits, and
the only general order issued relates to
the evidence that must be produced by
the American owner of the tobacco, such
as proof that the contracts for delivery
OF The tobacco were actually made prior
to the issue OF the prohIbtory rule;
dates Of the various steps In the trans
action, and explanations OF the reasons
why the tobacco had not been shipped
before, In some cases there has been

that this evidence has been sent TO Ma

THAT CURIOUS DISEASE
Which Caused the Death Of Tanners at
DnhnIA. PrnnhNlNnnIn.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 1s-sur-
geon General Weyman has telegraphed
the Pennsylvania board of health for
particulars regarding the death of cat
tie and persons reported to have result
ed from anthrax germs brought in
hides from China to tannery at Du-
bols, Pa, The creek which runs by the
tannery Is said by the newspaper re-
ports. to have become infected by the
germs.
Surgeon General Weyman says that q
similar case was reported two years
ago, from Bosbury. Pa, but upon in
vestlgation 1t was discovered that the
deaths, both of men and animals, had
resulted from fly bites The files fed
upon the decaying flesh on the hides
and communicated the poison to the
men and beasts which they bit The
surgeon general thinks It probable that
the deaths at Dubois may, upon inves-
tlgation, be placed to similar cause.
