sUBsIDENCE OF THE ROwDY ELEMENT-THE


QUARANTINE REGULATIONS STRICTLY EN-


FORCED BY THE SHERIFF


There was marked change in the vicinity of the
cattle stables at Blissvile yesterday. 1t is but
ures passed upon him in regard to the denquencies
of his subordinates to state that he has given
effect to Governor Robinson's quarantine order in
such manner that no charge of negligence can now
be laid his door. One result Of the conference
tween him and General Patrick Wednesday was
that person shall be admitted within the enclosure
without permit from the General. To
facilitate business the Sheriff was author
lied to issue permits to stablemen employed
in the yards. The deputy sheriffs at their
posts, not only at the gates but through the yards
and around the stables. Under Sheriff Rushmore
remained with them the entiro day, after having
been up all night. There very little business at
the stables, as no cattle removed. The only
evidence that business was not entirely suspended
was furnished by the crowd of boys that collected
with their little wagons and wooden pals outside
the fence to receive the swl from the "shoot lead
ing from the vsts within. The number of cattle
remaining in the stables is 21S. of which ten
spasms Wednesday night and died in short
time. An application to remove the animal was
made yesterday morning to General Patrick. but
refused on the ground that no removal can be per-
mitted until inspection has been made by DIR.
Mclean some other sanitary officer.


ALL THOUGHT VIOLENCE ABANDONED.


A HERALD reporter took survey of. the stables
and agreeably surprised mt the absence Of the
rowdies and bullies. 'We have driven that away
from here" said Under Sheriff Rushmore, 'and we
regret exceedingly the unpleasant affair Monday
(alluding to the attack the HERALD
porter. You may travel around here
and for yourself. and / warrant
you no one will venture to molest YOU"
Mr.. Rushmore defended tho conduct of his deputies
in general, some of whom he said. had rendered
good service in the capacity of policemen at Concy
island and Rockaway during the bathing season.
No cattle will be moved from the premises before to-
morrow. 1t is believed that within two weeks ali
the cattle will have been slaughtered. Whether the
Flcischmann firm will consent to the burning down
Of the old sheds has not yet been decided.


The slaughter houses of the Messrs. May n Bern
stein, Johnson avenue, are pretty well stacked
with meat The Sudden influx of the Blissville cat
tie in addition to the ordinary business has filed the
houses to their utmost capacity. Ono portion of


General Patrck's order in regard to cattle transit in
Brooklyn has given rise to complaints the part of
cattle owners in the interior of Long Island, who
regard the operation of the order in its present
state as n grievance. The only depot designated for
cattle is at the foot of Broadway in the Eastern Dis
trict, and while this location may be convenient for
cattle drovers in Brooklyn and New York. II will be
very embarrassing to of cattle in the interior
Of Long Island, who would be properly accommo-
dated by q depot the confines OF Williamsburg.
As the rule stands, cattle coming from the mid
land section of the island must DO driven down
broadway to the dock.
