With the discovery of blank checks

The State Livestock Sanitary Board
will decide tonight or tomorrow
whether to establish a Statewide inter-
county quarantine for foot and mouth
disease which will put stop to any
shipments or movements Of livestock
within the State
The board was scheduled to meet to-
day, but as DR.. c. J. Marshall. the State
Veterinarian. was still in Washington
in consultation with officials of the
Bureau of Animal Industry. the meet
ing will not be held until his arrival.
Messages received at the Capitol to-
day indicated that a serious condition
prevails and that the shutting down of
all cattle shipments of whatever char
acter is impending. The effect of this
would be to cause a meat famine sooner
or later. as not steer could be moved
from Chester to Philadelphia, from
Reading to Lebanon, from Lancaster to
Coatesville or from Harrisburg to
Carlisle
The disease was definitely located in
Perry and Adams counties this morn
ing.
Reports are that the slaughtering

Great Britain has had her innings
on the sea. The famous German cruiser
Emden has met her fate. The Koenigs-
berg, another German scourge of the
seas, has been bottled up. Thus Eng
land obtains partial revenge for the
havoc wrought on her sea commerce
by Germanys elusive marine raiders.
Fighting on land proceeds with saw
age intensity. but without definite
issue on any of the fields of battle. In
Belgium Germany's renewed attempt
to break through to the English Chan
mel has brought on a fearful struggle
still to be decided. Along the eastern
frontier of Prussia both Germany and
Russia lay claim to successes. In the
near east the Russians are meeting un-
eXpectedly stiff resistance from the
Turks.
On the European battlefields the
fighting is fiercest along the small strip
of Belgian territory in possession OF
the allies, from the sea to Armentieres
near the French border. OF the series
of desperate assaults made by the Ger
mans, the present is probably the most
severe. since the allies have declined to
cede the offensive entirely to the
enemy and are meeting attack with
attack.
To-day's French official statement
reports that the fighting is especially
violent, that the German advance
south of Ypres, a few miles north OF
the French border. has been checked
and that further to the south Che
French have made some progress. All
accounts agree, however, that it is
slow work. The troops are fighting in
dense fog, from one sand dune to an
other, sometimes creeping slowly
through the thick grass to win a few
additional yards.
Situation is Unchanged
Paris advices indicate that elsewhere
along the main battle line the situation
is much the same as 1t has been for
several weeks. Here and there advices
by the allies are reported and the off,
cial statement announces that the new
German attacks at various points have
been checked.
