Gov. Tanner Witnesses killing Of a
Herd That Furnished Him MIX.

CHICAGO, June 5.-Governor Tanner, at
the stock yards to-day. witnessed the
slaughtering of twenty-seven cows in a test
conducted by the State Board of Health and
the State Board of Livestock Commission
ers. Twenty-Five were found to be in an ad-
vanced stage of consumption, and the other
two had wel-developed cases. This herd
came from dairy farm in Sangamon county
that supplies the Governors family with
milk and he expressed himself very forcibly
on the subject. That test demonstrates, -
said he, 1.-The danger that constantly con-
fronts the public and proves that the live
stock commissioners should be invested
with power TO examine every herd in the
State, whether private or not. DR.. Lovejoy
tells me that this herd is the worst that he
has met yet Why, they were simply rotten
with disease. which must certainly spread
the germs of tuberculosis
Governor Tanner has ordered the imme-
date inspection of all cows used for fur
nishing milk to state institutions. The first
to be inspected by the live stock commits
sioners will be those at the Kankakee and
Elgin asylums and at the Home for Feeble
minded Children at Lincoln. There are l5C
head at each of these Institutions, and the
examination Is to be made TO find out how
many Of these animals are infected with
the tubercuar germs.
