tourney, Aug. 7.-(Special.) )-sig-
" has been the scene of excite
: since last Friday evening, be-
of a very peculiar complaint
al ong the horses at Barlow's livery
barn. Friday evening ABOUT o'clock
one horse had commissions and died
early Saturday morning. Yesterday
morning about $3.50 another showed
symptoms, and at 1890 was dead.
About dozen of the horses have been
affected since Friday evening. Drs.
Stevenson and Barrett, of Sigourney,
are attending the cases, and on Sat
urday Assistant State Veterinarian
Brown, of Oskaloosa, and DIR. Miller, of
,Ottumwa, We're summoned. Their
opinion is that the horses are suffer-
ing from the effects of poison, but
whether from poison of some charac-
ter deposited by man in the food or
drink, or from some poisonous sub
stance of natural growth found in
the hay, is the question: One peculiar
circumstance connected with the case
is that no two horses standing in the
same stall have been affected. The last
horse was opened and the brain and
stomach removed, and after chemical
analysis of the contents of the stom-
ach perhaps more will be known. The
state veterinarian arrived this morning.
