UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE,
BUREAU OF ANIMAL NDUsrRY,

DR.. D. F. Luckey, State Veterinarian,
Columbia, Mo.
Sir: The Bureau is in receipt
of a letter of the 1st instant from
DR.. j. B. Clancy, National Stock
Yards, ILL.,, stating that on Octo-
Der 1st a consignmentof of IA head
Of cattle from Otis Sloan, Doni-

arrived at National Stock Yards,
October 1st, via the st. Louis,
Iron Mountain & Southern r. R.,
in cars n. p. 1886 and M. p.
1866. On inspection at Nation-
al Stock Yards these cattle were
found to be infested with tioks,-
Boophilus annulatus. Speci-
mems of ticks were taken from
two steers branded sd" on left
hip. Tags in the ears Of these
steers showed the former, owner
to be Bud Doherty, Ponder, Mo.
On the same date a consign-
meEt of 80 head of cattle from J,
F. Smart, Doniphan, Nc, arrived
at National Stock Yards, H., via
the st. l.. |. M. g. S. Ry., in N,
Y. c. & st. l.. car S078. The
majority of the animals in this
consignment were branded CD"
on left hip and ear tags showed
same owner as above indicated.
In view of the continued ship
ments of tick infested cattle from
Missouri, The Bureau must insist
that the infected localities in that
State be Immediately placed un-
der strict quarantine by the State
authorities, or it will be necessary
for the Department to act in the
matter, in order to prevent the
spread of disease by the inter-
state movement of consignments

localities.

, from you on this subject as early
as possible.

ton is needed and will promptly
answer calls for the inspection
which should be done before the
cattle are driven to the station.
As soon as there is sufficient
frost to destroy such ticks as may
be on the ground around them,
the stock yard at Doniphan will
be opened up for the shipment of
cattle to the native pens.
Respectfully,

On learning Of the tragedy she
drove to Essex and upon seeing
the PROSTATE form of her para
mour, attempted to kill herself
with a pistol. Crow had apprais-
ed Montgomery Of the fact he was
not pleased with the attentions he
was giving to his daughter and
demanded that he desist in his
attentions. This was only a
short time ago, but the warning
seemed to have had no effect and
the illicit conduct continued.
The wronged father felt so out
ragged that he became almost
frantic with grief and the sight of
the man, who had imposed the
greatest indigities that could be
inflicted upon the home and FAM
lily, filled his heart with murder
and the life blood of the traducer
alone could appease, in part, the
injury. With this pent up feel
ing, Mr.. Crow went to Montgom-
ery's office and then shot him to
death with a large calibre revol-
yer. Montgomery was shot in
the head and in the body and
died within a half hour after the
tragedy occurred. Crow is good
sturdy citizen and stands
well in the community where he
lives. His friends came to his
assistance and rendered any aiC
that might be required. Mont
gomery is well connected, being
a grandson of the late Judge r
