prompt ACTION
Taken BY the Mexican Authorities
In the Matter of the Injected
Cattle From Texas.

From the Chihuahu Enterprise
There has been considerable excite
ment among local cattle men during
the past week over the threatened in
lection of Texas fever among the ma
tive herds On the 10Th day of No
| vember there crossed the Texas border
shipment of 80 fine Texas bulls, pur-
chased by Don Miguel Salas at Bee
vile. Texas, and consigned to his ranch
| "El Charco," on the chihuahua & Pa
cific. They had scarcely been unloaded
until the Chihuahua hacendadoes, hear
| ing of their arrival, were filled with
| alarm, as the bulls came from the in
fected district where Texas fever eX-
| lists. This is a disease wholly unknown
among Mexican cattle in this state,
and as it is a dangerous infection the
prominent cattlemen took prompt and
| active measures 10 insure their herds
from danger.
A petition was Immediately circulat-
ed and signed by Gen. Luis Terrazas,
| and Messrs. Carlos Zuloaga, Gonzales
| Hermanos, Luis Faudoa, Sucrs., Jose
| Maria Falomir, Sucrs., Ramon r. Luz
| jan, Sucrs., and others, to the COVER
nor of the state of Chihuahua asking
that immediate steps be taken to avoid
the infection of the native cattle.
Several solutions were offered.
among them being the suggestion of
Gen. Luis Terrazas to buy the cattle
and then shoot them. Another Sug-
gested that the bulls be shipped back to
Texas, and the final suggestion, which
was finally adopted by the authorities
was that the herd be isolated. This
was ordered through the Jefe Politi-
CO of this district, Don Ygnacio Enri-
quez, VINO disposed of the matter by
issuing the following order:
| In the city of chihuahua, the fourth
day of December, 1900, the Jefe Politi-
co (mayor) of the district of Iturbide,
state of Chihuahua, Ygnacio Enriquez,
resolved to comply Immediately with
the order of the governor of the state,
which order by virtue of the petition of
several breeders of cattle, was given
to isolate conveniently the 80 head of
| cattle which Mr.. Miguel SalaS has i'm
ported from the United States from
| the zone of the state of Texas, where
| there is a disease known as the Texas
fever and which is considered as infec-
| tiouS.
Therefore, and in conformity with
the commands of article % of the sani-
tary code of the state the Jefatura
| (mayor) orders the complete separa-
ton of the mentioned cattle, which
shall be confined in an enclosure in
lpasture grounds on the hacienda
(ranch) Eel Charco," the property OF
the said Mr.. Migue, Salas, said cattle
to be in this manner completely sep

arated and isolated for the term of
three months, counted from today, and
in order that this order shall be strict
ly complied with hereby appoint as
inspector vigilante Mr.. Cayetano
Guardado. who will take care that no
communication nor even approxima-
ton with the cattle of the state shall
occur with that in the fenced up ground
where the suspected cattle are confin-
ed belonging to Mr.. Salas, who, pre-
himself to be in conformity with the
above mentioned resolution, stating at
the time that the cattle spoken of had
beeen completely isolated since its i'm
portation and have been fenced in at
a considerable distance from where his
and those belonging to his neighbors
were grazing.
At the same time Mr.. Cayetano
Guardado, who was present and being
made acquainted with his appoint
ment, said that he accepts and at once
takes possession of the charge and
promises to comply faithfully with his
obligation to see to the separation of
the suspicious cattle before mention
ed; besides, this Jefatura has to say
that. in the opinion of competent per-
sons, there is no danger of conta gion
from the mentioned disease, consider
ing the altitude of chihuahua and the
present temperature, which fluctuates
from between zero and two degrees
(Centigrade) more or less, and, if any
remote danger should occur of con-
tagion, it will disappear completely
with the isolation of the three months
already ordered by this Jefatura.
In testimony thereof, this act has
been signed by the mayor jefe politi-
COZ of the district, the proprietor of
the suspicious cattle, Mr.. Miguel Salas.
and the inspector appointed to watch
the inspection of the said cattle, and
immediate notification of this act is
given TO the executive of this state
for his authorization and for the ends
to which the petitioners allude in their
respective petition.

The Kimball was loaded by hand, the

of 16O tons. AS against 20 tons handled

}A NAN DROWNED At AEA enterprise THAT AND Ito ON THE SITUATION
CAUGHT IN PUMP PIT BY THE
FLOOD.
No Longer a Doubt but that Naone,
Native Machinist, Is a Victim of Yes
terday's Storm.

Naone, a native workman on the
pumps of Honolulu plantation, was un-
doubtedly drowned at his post of duty
by the floods of last night. The pit in
which were the pumps is thirty feet
deep and Naone was in there when the
Waimalu stream oVerflOwed, filling the
pit The pit filled so quickly that all
the men in it had to scamper up the
ladder TO save themselves. 1t is be-
lieved that Naone failed to get out as
he has not been seen since.
The rain started in at the plantation
at about 4:30 o'clock. At about $50 it
looked like the pit might be filled and
several men were sent down to shut off
the valves and prepare the machinery
for a wetting in case it should come to
that. Waimalu stream rose rapidly
and burst it's banks suddenly and unex-
pectedly, rolling over into the pit Some
of the men saw the danger and escaped.
Engineer Smith staid with the pumps
until the full danger was upon him.
When the party reached the surface
Naone was not to be seen.
Mr.. Smith thought the native had es-
capped and so reported to the plantation
office. AS he did not show up, however,
inquiry was made at his house and un-
availing efforts We're made in other
quarters to locate him. All night he
was looked for and this morning the
search was continued to other houses in
the neighborhood.,
This afternoon telephone message
from the plantation is to the effect that
| there is no longer any doubt but that
the unfortunate man is at the bottom of
the pit. Arrangements are being made
to pump out the place to recover the
body. 1t is supposed that something
| knocked down by the torrent of water
when it entered, struck the native and
! is probably still pinioning his body, pre-
venting it from rising. Another theory
is that it is caught in the machinery.
This is the only casualty thus far re-
/ ported in connection with the storm
| Manager Low reports that at Homo
lulu plantation the storm was exceed
! ingly severe. Considerable damage was
| done. One or more small cottages were
washed away. The damage to the
pumps will probably be $500.
