Bisbee Review: A telegram was received last night from the Secret ary of Agriculture at Washington by Captain Burt Mossman advising him that the state of Sonora had been quarantined, and that no more cattle would be passed over the line into the United States from that part of Mexico after the second of January, 1902. The cause of the quarantine was the finding of ticks on cattle recently passed over which had Texas fever in them. This will work quite hardship on the Sonora cattlemen, who have been preparing to make some heavy shipments next month from the different ranges in differ ent parts of Sonora.
