AGAINST HOME HORSES.
Provision in Tariff Law Which At
fects the American Circus.


Despite the weeks of argument pro and
con during the last session Of Congress
as to what was protection and what was
tariff for revenue only. the Payne tariff
law ran the gamut Of protectionists, free
traders and revenue only advocates
with provision which Is none OF these
things and which is interpreted to be
decided discrimination against the Ameri-
can product. Whenever a circus, which Is
considered distinctly American product,
ventures forth into a foreign country, the
managers of the show will find 1t to their
advantage to eliminate all animals born
in the United States from the menagerie.
Under the law OF March 3. 1895, fore. .gn-
born anima's may be taken out of the
country with menagerie or circus and
brought back again to this country with
out paying a duty. This section OF the
law was not changed by the Payne law.
The latter, however, stipulates that all
domestic animals taken out Of the coun-
try with circus must pay duty upon
being brought back to the United States.
The new law. however. permits the ex-
portation Of domestic animals for ex-
hintion purposes at fairs and expositions,
with the option of bringing them back
free of duty.

DAMAGE DONE BY NINE CAVE
WEST SCRANTON SUFFERS LOSS
OF 100000.
Worst Disaster Of the Kind City Has
Ever Experienced-Area
Affected.

SCRANTON, Pa, August 30.-Fully
100000 damage was done to West Scran-
ton property yesterday by mine cays,
the worst the city has ever experienced.
Abandoned workings OF the "Old Cork
and Bottle colliery' of the Fairlawn
Coal Company, which ceased operations
twenty years ago, gave way under
side hill, and an area equal to two city
blocks sank from two to eight feet, throw
ing houses from their foundations, crack
ing walls and otherwise damaging build
ings
Public School Nc l6. a $4,000 brick
structure. was 50 badly damaged tnat
it will have TO be torn down. The other
properties damaged arc mostly frame
residences on Fairview and Chestnut ave-
nues and Robinson street, with few
small store buildings.
One of the biggest items Of loss Is the
land. which. on account Of being steep
hillside, Is probably made unmarketable.
Depth of the Disturbance.
The disturbance is estimated to be about
1870 feet below the surface. Fissures eS-
tending to the surface and three feet
across al the tops show themselves in
a number of places.
A new three-story tenement on the
brow of the hill slid down the declivity
six or seven feet. and is Threatening to
topple with further settling.
Gas and water pipes We're broken in
all sections of the disturbed area. and
police are keeping people from attempt
ing TO enter upon II for fear OF lighted
match starting a fire.
Rats by the thousands ran through the
fissures and scampered over the streets.
Wisps of hay and straw that have lain
in the old workings for twenty years
were blown through an unsealed OPEN
ing on the river bank by the force Of the
compression of air resulting from the
settling.

And Not Scarlatina or Scar
let Fever Say the
Doctors.

AIT. CLARE, Dec. 21-In your
Saturdays issue, there appeared an
article from this place, one para
graph OF which refers to an epidemic.
of scarlat.na prevailing here, which
reads in part: An epidemic, or rati.
or a contaglon. OF disease which the
local doctors have been slow In d.
agnosing; but which public opinion
pronounces scarlatlna. has been pre-
yailing here, form some time" etc.
To this clause OF the paragraph our
local physician takes exception;
claiming that the accusation of "be-
ing slow In diagnosing the cases.
was either a reflection upon his in
tegrity or his ability as a physician
Us he now insists that in the early
stage of the disease he diagnosed it
as German measles. AS the writer
of this vas the author of the para
graph referred to, Wish to state
here that in using the language

disparage the Doctor in the least in
his profession. We have been, and

ability and integrity as practitlon.
er. as I have in any other doctor;
but this must not bar me in stating
facts for the public good. 1t shoulu
be no reflection upon him that
scarlatina and German measles are
so closely related that the doctor
himself was for some time in doubt
as to which 1t was. Nor was it a re-
Election upon him when doctor
from a neighboring town was first
called in one OF the cases. that he
was also at a loss in naming the dis
ease, but expressed himself to me in
person. that he was suspicious of It's
being scarlet fever. / am told this
same disease prevails at Buckhan-
non. and some of the physicians
there call it scarlet fever and others
German measles. In recent years. we
have had two sieges of smallpox in
our town. and In both cases. they
also were diagnosed as measles of
some sort at the start. and the last
time the disease was allowed to
spread to many families before it
! was detected. i will not dispute the
correctness of his latest diagnosis as
being German measles" but any
disease that affects the throat as badly
and SO long as this has done-hold-
ing some Of the patients down for
