Diseases Among Stock.
P. Frandsen, professor Of zoology at
the State University, arrived in Eu-
reka on Wednesday to look into the
nature of the little understood sheep
disease known as "swelled head"
which has attacked the flocks here

appears to be either hog cholera or
swine plague, both highly contagious
diseases. 1t may be well at this time,
to urge upon those of our people, who
contemplate buying hogs for the pur-
pose of raising them, to use every pre-
caution in selecting only animals
known positively to be healthy. Such
diseases as these yield to no known
treatment and we ought to realize the
importance of the ounce of proven
ton by quarantining and disinfecting
everything that may have been con-
taminated and Immediately burn or
carefully bury the carcasses of all
animals that have died of contagious

Will Test the Law.

A law manufactured by the last
Legislature provides that electric
light companies must connect with
houses and other buildings when the
wiring is according to the rules OF
the underwriters, whether performed
by an agent of the company or not.
The Winnemucca light company re
fuses to connect with houses unless
they have been wired by their own
electrician, and action will be brought
against them under this law. 1t was
we'll understood at the time of the
introduction of he bill in the Assem-
uation in Winnemucca especially.

A Bio SHEEP CENTER.
Thousands are Loaded at PendletOn for
All Parts of the West.

Pendleton is one of the greatest
sheep shipping centers of the Pacific
slope, railroad men say. About 10e,.
coo sheep have been shipped from and
through that point this season. A
great many more will be shipped be-
fore the winter season comes on, as
the fall movement has just become es-
tablished.
The o. R. & N. reports that 800 cars
had been shipped from and through
that point, while it was ascertained
that the w. & C. R. had handled 200
cars. The cars, as a rule, are loaded
with about 240 sheep each.
These shipments are much heavier
now than they were last year at this
time. The shipments of the entire
country will greatly exceed the ship
ments of last season, for the reason
that there are more sheep in the
country, and feed is exceptionally
scarce and sheep raisers are forced
to sell. The season is now fairly
opened and heavy shipments will con-
tinue for the next month or so.
Most of the sheep have been ship
ped to Portland on the coast and Seat
tie and other Sound points. Some
have been shipped as far east as st.
Paul. Heavy shipments have been
made to California points. No rea-
son is assigned for this extraordinary
activity, beyond the fact that scare
ity of mutton prevails in the Utah
section. Many sheep Of Montana.
this year, have been killed by severe
storms, and there is not the usual sup
ply there.

TREATY IS DEAD.
Panama Canal Held Up by Colombia I'm.
til Time Expires.

Washington, Sept. 23.-When the
state department closed yesterday at
4 o'clock it was agreed that the Pana'
ma canal treaty was dead, although
eight hours yet remained within
which the Colombian congress might
take affirmative action upon it. Moth
iug, however, had been received during
the day, either from Minister Beaupre
at Bogota or from Mr.. Herran, the Co.
lombian charge here, which gave the
slightest hope Of favorable issue.
A report is current here that the Co.
lombian congress, in secret session, has
clothed President Marroquin with full
power to negotiate treaty. II this re-
port should turn out to be true, Presi.
dent Marroquin, who is counted a
friend of the treaty, could proceed un'
trammeled by the fear of future reckon
ing with his congress.
In any event, President Roosevelt
must now take the next step. He can
elect to proceed under the Spooner act
and take up the Nicaraguan route, or
be can allow the matter to drift for the
present in the hope that way may yet
be found to straighten out the present
difficulty in the path Of the Panama
route.
Contrary to his custom during the
summer, Acting Secretary OF the State
Department Odell remained in the city
Yesterday in order to be on hand to act
prom ptly on any information which
might come from Mr.. Besupre regard
ing canal matters at Bogota. Up to
80 o'clock, however, nothing had been
received. DR.. Herran, the Colombian
charge, also waited anxiously for news
from his government, but likewise was
disappointed. Colombia, 1t is known,
is anxious to keep alive the canal ne
gotiations.
One interesting feature in connection
with the legislative situation in Colon
bia is the fact that the terms of one
third of the members in the senate,
numbering nine, will expire on the
goth of next July, when the life of the
present congress will end. These nine
senators, it is said, are averse to the
canal treaty. The hope of the advo-
Gates of the treaty will be to elect SEN
ators in their places who are favorable
to the convention.

PUMPS FOR GRANT
WORK CAN NOW PROCEED ON DREDGE
WITHOUT DELAY.
Few Weeks Should See the Change Com
pleted- Operations on the Mouth of
the Columbia WIN No Doubt Begin
Early Next Month -Englneers Show
That Haste Has Been Made.

Washington, Sept. 2S--A telegram
was received by the chief Of engineers
today stating that the pumping ma
chinery for the converted dredge Grant
has been received at the navy yard,
and will &C once be placed in position
on the ship. From this it is inferred
that recent predictions will be fulfilled
and the Grant will be ready for opera
tions on the Columbia river early in
October.
Today's mails brought to the depart
ment notification Of the criticism that
has been passed upon the engineers
for taking so long in equipping the
Grant. To show that instead Of delay
the Grant has really been converted in
a comparatively short time, the acting
chief OF engineers called attention to
tho progress OF work on number OF
sea dredges now being bnilt for use on
the principal harbors Of the coast.
He said arrangements we're made for
converting the transport Grant into a
dTedge about February / and on Sep
tember / the work was 8S per cent
compls ted.
Two sea dredges to have pumps the
size Of those supplied the Grant for use
in New York harbor, which we're au-
thorized December 1S, are not yet 10
per cent completed. There has been
no actual work on dredge for Lake
Michigan authorized March Is, while
the Southwest Pass dredge, begun Feb
ruary rs, is only l5 per cent complet-
ed, and dredge for the Mississippi
river, contracted for September l, 1901,
is but 73 per cent completed. A
dredge for Charleston, S. c., will be
ready for action next month, but it wat
authorized December 20, 1900, nearly
three years ago. In the case of these
dredges the work is all new.

PALMA ON CUBAN TOUR.
President of Republic Urges on People
Necessity for Civil Comfy.

Necessity Tor CIVIL Comfy.
Santiago De Cuba, Sept. 23.-speak'
ing today at the village of Ell Caney
close to the scene OF the battle between
the Americans and the Spaniards, Pres.
ident Palma urged the Cuban people tc
guard the Ideals they had obtained by
means OF intervention.
The presidential party we're enthusi-
astically received on their arrival at Ell
Caney. Fhe Alcalde having remarked
that the gathering WAS composed of vet.
erans, President Palma assured them
that he wanted to pay the army as bad
ly as anybody, because the payment
was not only an act of justice, but was
necessary to the reconstruction Of the
country. Nobody loved Cuban inde-
pendence more than himself, continued
the president.
The only way to sacrifice the repub-
lie would be to bring about civil war.
He believed there was not one veteran
in thousand who would not prefer to
maintain the honor of Cuba, even to
the extent of forfeiting his soldier's
pay. The Cubans, having accepted
United States Intervention as a means
of ending their troubles. we're under
an obligation to follow those ideals and
prove themselves a peaceable people.
Speaking Of the appearance of the
band OF insurrectionists near Santiago
President Palma condemned the hid
den instigators Of the uprising. The
AlcaIde declared that no one within
two leagues Of Ell Caney had joined the
band.
