Fox Hunting Under
Ban of States Live
Stock Sanitary Board

Fox hunting, the great winter sport
of Delaware, Chester and other coun-
ties in vicinity of Philadelphia has
been put under the ban of the State.
The State Livestock Sanitary Board,
which has plenary powers to prevent
spread of disease. has issued an or
der which prohibits hunting in every
county under quarantine for foot and
mouth disease. The board stopped
movement of cattle over highways in
quarantined counties weeks ago and
permits cattle to come into the State
for immediate slaughter only.
When the news of the order be-
came known to-day the officials at the
office of the board said that the order
was issued to stop hunting of all kinds
because dogs were liable to run
through farm yard where cattle were
luarantined and that in hunting
horses might follow and infection be
spread. When it was asked if this
would put stop to fox hunting it was
said that 1t would and that the State
would have to enforce the order.

Neither Governor Tener nor members

appointments If the Governor declined
to recall them. They declined to talk
about HI m and most of them smiled
when asked for statement.

II. & o. Wants Rehearlng
Informal application was made to the
Public Service Commission to-day by
officials of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail-
road Company. for rehearing on the

ton of it's lines. The commission will
consider 1t later in the day and also
discuss the application of Il. NJ. Abbott
for rehearing of the rate case.
II. i. Everett. of Norrlstown, in a
letter to the commission, declared that
the cost of q 100-trip ticket between
increased more than 60 per cent. and is

GERMANS BELIEVED To

London, Dec. II, 1895 a. m.-The
Gripping of telephone and telegraph
wires by the bombardment yesterday
of three ports on the east coast of
England by German cruisers, together
with the precautions thrown about
these towns by the police and the mill
tary authorities made it impossible
even to-day, more than twenty four
hours after the shelling of Scarbor-
ough, the Hartlepools and Whitby, to
obtain more than an approximate es-
innate of the civilian dead and
wounded.
According to the best reports avail
able this forenoon, between 81 and Al
persons met their death in the Hartle-
pools, while between $50 and 16O were
wounded. At Scarborough II dead
and 30 wounded was the toll. Both
official and unofficial estimates place
the Whitby casualties at two dead and
two wounded. OF the Hartlepool
casualties seven of the dead were SOL
diers, while of the wounded fourteen
men blonged to the military. The
maximum of wounded is close on to
$50 persons. This does not include
the slightly wounded civilians who
bandaged their own hurts and left
, town on the first trains.
According to an official statement
given out to-day a total of 55 persons
met their deaths in the Hartlepools,
while 115 were wounded"
