Chambers.

| have a memorandum from J. ".
Shaw, ID. V. s.. to the effect that he
destroyed between January and March
9th OF this year " glandcred norses
and 4 glandered mules. Six of these
were among imported animals.
DR.. Rowat reports that since May,
| 1904, he has slaughtered IS animals
for ganders and two for tuberculosis.
DIR. Monsarrat has killed seven ami.
mails for CHAMBERS since January LIST,
1904.
I II Is my belief. however, that moro
than 81 animals have been killed for
glanders since the first Of the year.
h, the above data not being q complete
record.
Rumors have come to the Secretary
of an epidemic of CHAMBERS In North
Kohala district, In the Island OF Ha'
wall. Investigation by correspondence
has been unsatisfactory. II these fu.
pors are true those whose animals
baye been afflicted have tried to con-
ceal the fact.
The Territory is without funds to
meet the emergency Of any epidemic
among animals.
