HOLDS MEETINGS
THRUOUT CITY
City Officials Make
New Gestures

Mass meetings of protest against
the impending seven cent fare were

end while officials of the city and

to traction controlled legislatures.
Mass Indignation Rising.
Considerable mass indignation has
been aroused over the failure or re-
fusal of the state authorities and the
Tammany Hall city administration tc
take any action to protect the work
ers against the moves of the Inter
borough which have been engineered
almost in the open. 1t is believed
that the present rise of worker senti.

ney for the transit commission Sat
urday sent request to United States
Senators Copeland and Wagner to
take immediate steps to obtain from
congress legislation limiting the
power of the federal courts in rate
suits such as that in which the In
terborough has obtained the right to
the increased fare.
Empty Gestures.
This request followed on a similar
one which was in the form of petit
tion to congress made last Friday by
a resolution Of the Board of Estimate.
Neither of these requests is consid-
cred to be of any significance so far
as any effective relief is concerned
because no one really believes that
congress can or would take from the
federal courts this much cherished
power.
The move on the part of Inter
myer is believed to be merely an at
tempt to commit democratic senators
Wagner and Copeland to the apparent
fight against the traction interests
now being staged by AL. Smith and
his spokesman, Untermyer, against

Re-test of Cattle.

An inspection of the farms and a
tuberculin re-test of cattle among the
herds of Garrett county where a re-
actor was found in the recent tubercu-
lin test, have been made during the
past two or three days by Dr. C. E..
Poe, government veterinarian, assisted
by ]. L. McGlone, county agent. The
result of those tests will not be known
until tomorrow, it was said at the of
flee of the county agent yesterday.
The purpose of the test, Mr.. Nc
Clone said, was to see if any cattle
which had been exposed to the reac-
tors in the spring have contracted the
disease.
During the spring test of total of
3,246 dairy cows was made for tuber-
culosis and in that number only q
had been found to be afflicted with the
bovine plague. These reactors were
slaughtered and the barns formerly
housing them disinfected. The re-test
during the present week was only
precautionary measure against a pos
sible spread of the disease.
George Smith, veterinarian, was
also here during the past few days
