tion Supervisors for Baltimore city,

Cattle Disease Costly to State

Secretary Charles w. Melville of
the State Live Stock Board yesterday
made public report showing that the
recent outbreak Of the foot and mouth
disease in Maryland is going to cost
the State, exclusive of the money paid
out in the way of expenses connected
with the suppression OF the disease,
the sum of S21,313.91 for live stock
that had to be slaughtered. The Unit
ed States Government will have to pay
out similar amount to Maryland cit
liens.
There have been 35 outbreaks of the
foot and mouth disease in this State
this fall. The first case was discover
ed on the farm of w. Harvey Hykes,
about six miles from Hagerstown, in
Washington county. 1t was diagnosed
by local veterinarial on November 2.
Where Outbreaks Occurred.
OF the 80 outbreaks noted, seven oc-
Cured in Washington county, two in
Frederick, seven in Carroll, four in
Montgomery, two in Howard, one in
Prince Georges, two in Baltimore
county, one in Hartford, one in Queen
Anne's, five in Talbot and three in
Caroline. The last infection was dis
covered on last Wednesday. Singular
ly enough, it also was in Washington
county about four miles west of the
farm upon which the first outbreak oc-
Cured.
The development of this disease in
Maryland has necessitated the kill
ing OF S27 steers, 299 cows, AZ heif-
ers, 1877 sheep, 420 hogs, 20 shoats, and
81 calves, or total of 1,349 head of
live stock of the different classifica-
tions. The greatest amount of money
that will have to be paid out to any
one person as result of the killing
of his herd will be $1,623.1S to Will
liam II. Mckinney, of Frederick, who
had to sacrifice "a steers, Ga sheep
and 81 hogs.

THAW LOSES FIGHT
IN SUPREME COURT
Unanimous Opinion Holds Slayer Of
Stanford White Must Return
To New York.


Harry X. Thaw lost his fight today
in the Supreme Court of the United
States against being extradited from
the State of New Hampshire to the
State of New York.
In a brief decision by Justice
Holmes, which was the unanimous de-
cision of the court, it was held that
the celebrated prisoner should be
turned over at once to the New York
authorities to answer an indictment
charging conspiracy to escape from
Matteawan Asylum for the Criminal
Insane.
Whether his escape from the
asylum, while, as his counsel contend
ed, he was insane, constituted crime,
and other questions, the court dis
missed with the comment that they
could not enter into a habeas corpus
proceedings, and that they were pro-
per questions for the State of New
York to decide.
Actually the celebrated Thaw case
the killing of Stanford White-was
not before the Supreme Court. Merely
the question of returning Thaw on
the conspiracy indictment was up for
decision.
What other moves, if any, were op-
en- to Thaw's counsel to prevent his
return to the State where he was
twice tried and had made many futile
efforts to be released, those familiar
with the legal procedure were at a
loss to forecast.

alton of the compressor within 20
days from date of contract. The con-
tract also provides that the compress
or must be approved by Assistant San
itary Engineer Tollman and DR.. Levin
West, the Brunswick ealth officer.
Chairman George Catlett and men,
bers of the water committee, are much
pleased with the project. Before the

WILLARD is ENCOURAGED.
President of b. & 0. Says 1t Would
Have Been Better ii Full Increase
Had Been Granted.

Speaking of the recent decision of
the Interstate Commerce Commission,
granting most of the per cent.
freight rate increase asked, Daniel
Willard, President of the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad, said yesterday:
Il am disappointed because the
commission has not granted the full
5 per cent. advance which was asked
and that coal, coke and ore, which
constitute nearly two-thirds of the en-
tire tonnage handled by the Balti-
more and Ohio Railroad, were among
the articles to which the 5 per cent.
increase does not apply.
while l earnestly believe that it
would have been better for all if the
full increase had been granted as re-
quested, nevertheless l have found
much in the decision that is encourag-
ing"
President Willard believed his COM
pany would realize $2,0O0,0OO per an
mum, or approximately one-half OF
what per cent. increase on freight
rates on all traffic would have
amounted to, as result of the de-
cision.
