COMES FROM THE WEST
Plenty of Meat in Great Britain
Notwithstanding the Embargo
on New England.

London, Dec. 5-The board of agri-
culture has intimated its willingness
to remove the embargo on. cattle ar

ever the American department of ag-
riculture considers that the outbreak
is suppressed. The board tonight is.
sued an order permitting the landing
of cattle, under certain restrictions,
from the steamer Irishman, which has
arrived at Liverpool from Boston; the
steamers Kansas and Victorian, due
today at Liverpool from Boston, and
the steamer Cambrian, due at London
from Boston.
Meantime the importers here say
that the quarantine has little effect
on the American meat supply, since
the bulk comes from the west, and it
is merely a question of shipping the
cattle by way of New York instead of
Boston. Regarding the general ques-
ton of opening English ports to Can
adam and Argentine live cattle, there
is not the slightest likelihood of the
admittance of Argentine cattle until
the board of agriculture is satisfied
that the foot and mouth disease has
not only been stamped out in the Ar
gentine Republic, but until the latter
establishes an effectual quarantine
against the surrounding infected ter
/ ritOry of which there is no immediate
/ prospect.
On the other hand. the importers say
| that the opening of British ports to
\ Canadian live cattle is not only inn

/ ably affect the English meat supply
! because it is cheaper to sell Canadian
! range steers in the United States and

up. The worst conditions for the tele-
graph companies were in New England

were being towed up the river broke
adrift near Yonkers and one of them

DEATH OF DR.. CUTLER.

Swampscott, Mass, Dec. 5--Dr. Hen
~ S. Cutler. a composer and musical
conductor, credited with introducing
vested male choirs in this country died
here today. DR.. Cutler was formerly
orgonist and choirmaster of Trinity
church in New York City. When the
Prince of Wales, now King Edward,
visited this country in 1860, DR.. Cutler
conceived the idea of having a vested
choir in Trinity similar to those in the
English churches because the Prince
of Wales had decided to attend the
service there. The idea was at once
taken up in this country and became
general.

CONCESSION WHICH
MEANS MONOPOLY

San Diego, Cal. Dec. 5.-The Mexi-

Which seriously interferes with the oc-
equations of a great many fishermen
of this city. The instructions from
Ensenada are that no more fishing
schoOners from this or any other
American port viii be allowed to take
fish in Mexican waters. This action
is the result Of a concession which
has been granted to a company thought
to be the Pacific Fishing & EXplora-

lean vessels are to be excluded has
been confirmed by a telegram from the
American consul at Ensenada.

SMALL OPERATORS
WILL SELL TO BIG ONES

Scranton, Pa, Dec. 5.-Recent events
have given ground for the belief that
the result Of the negotiations now in
progress will be the ultimate sale of
the properties of the individual opera
tors to the large coal-carrying COM
panies. This viii not be done at once,
but it is regarded here as certain to
come in the not distant future because
it is believed to be the only solution OF
the present situation, and is the out
come which both the independents and
the large companies desire. 1t is esti-
mated that the collieries of the sixty
seven independent operators can be
purchased for S145. 900, 600. These opera
tions produce three tenths of the total
output of coal.

Alliance, Neb., Dec. Sat meeting
today of many stockmen at this place,
the center Of the cattle raising interests
of the state. it was decided to send a
petition to congress and the president
protesting against the immediate re-

the conditions there, the belief being
that with a better understanding the
order for tearing down the fences may
be delayed or rescinded.
