BECAUSE OF sCAB DISEASE
Federal Authorities Announce Con-
ditiOns on Which Animals May Be

The disease Of sheep known as scab OF
scabies has become so prevalent in Ken
lucky that the Secretary Of Agriculture
has considered Il necessary 70 declare a
quarantine. This ectiou comes after a
thorough examination into conditions
The fact that the disease IS contagious

States. but conditions there are not seri-
Gus enough 10 require Federal quarantine
The order for the quarantine which is
effective August &c, provides that sheep
shall be moved interstate from Kentucky
only under the following conditions:

and that have been dipped once in an ap-
proved dip. under the supervision OF an

sion, or they may b. shipped Interstate

date slaughter without dipping.
Inspection and dipping under the regu-
lauons will he performed only al points

proper yarding and dipping facilities
should be installed al other points the De-
partment Of Agriculture would consider
the advisability OF establishing inspection
at such places for the convenience Of
shippers.
Prevalent in the West.
For many years sheep scab has been
quite prevalent I'm the West. but as a re-
suit Of the combined efforts OF the Fed
eraI and State authorities much territory
has been entirely freed and the injection
in other sections has been greatly re-
duced. and il is hoped that within a few
years more the disease viii be entirely
stamped out. This is the first time that
the disease has obtained a sufficient foot
hold east OF the Mississippi River TO re-
Cuire a Federal quarantine.

Edwin Fuss, Dismissed by
Butcher, Takes Poison in
Fit of Dependency.

Dependency over the loss Of his po-
sition. which he had held for sixteen
years, caused Edwin Fuss % years old,
of 40 Liberty street. to commit suicide
by taking cyanide of potassium early
today. He was found dead In bed when
his brother, William Fuss, called TO see
him about 0 o'clock.
Fuss was employed as a butcher by
Fred Garwood, In West Kinney street,
until three weeks ago. when he was
discharged. 1t was the only place he
had ever worked and he became dis
couraged. For two weeks he has threat
ened frequently to shoot himself. but
none of those to whom he talked be-
lived that he would carry out his
threat.
This morning about o'clock Mrs.
Mary O'Brien. the landlady, attempted
to wake Fuss. She received no answer
to her knock, so sent her sister around
to look In at the window. She saw Fuss
sitting in q chair. Later they looked In
again and saw him lying dressed on the
bed. When his brother arrived the door
was locked and had to be forced open.
On the table was the glass from which
the poison had been taken. Beside it
lay a note, which read:
"Goodby to all the boys. Please no.
tify Mr.. Fuss 81 Gohle street, Newark,
