"Tho official declaration of the free-

been delayed until fully six months
i from the occurrence of the last ease, on
which occasion the animal found dis-
I eased as well as all others with which
it had come in contact were purchased
and slaughtered and the premises quar-
antined to all cattle from that date to
the present time. Although in many
rases four months is regarded as suf-
ficient this extension of the period of
complete immunity from four to six
months was advised to satisfy the most
conservative, anf} the grounds for the
present declaration and its issue and
the raising of quarantine in the United
States for tills disease is thoroughly
justified by the facts.
"The inspection system advised by the
department has been maintained in full
force and efficiency in the eight dis-
tricts heretofore infected during that
period. The seaboard and frontier in-
spection and all necessary cattle quar-
antine will be strictly enforced, and
there being no possibility of the occur-
rence of contagious pleuro pneumonia
save by its introduction from foreign
ports, the country may congratulate
itself upon the removal of all apprehen-
sion for its cattle on tlv

Tins National Switchmen of North was deliberately planned and most sue
line. In twenty minutes the vessel
j careened outward and lay with her port
i guard rail almost even with the water's
I edge and the water poured into the hold
below the cabin-deck and filled it be-
fore getting between decks through the
hatches. Otherwise, the 150 persons
who were engaged in examining the
curiosities in that portion of the vessel
would have been thoroughly ducked
and perhaps drowned.
There was no panic. Fully ten min-
utes elapsed between the time the sand
scow struck the old vessel and the time
she careened Several employes of the
owners of the old craft were aboard at
the time and they had presence of mind
enough to hasten the visitors ashore
without frightening them. One crip-
pled man who could not move
rapidly and maintain a good equi-
librium was carried down the
gang plank to the dock by one of
the sailors. All the other visitors
walked off without accident before she
turned on her side. When the sand
scow struck her the shock was so great
that every person on the vessel was
frightened and began to investigate tho
cause of tho trouble. The temporary
steps from the dock to the vessel were
broken by the shock. The old whaler
was jammed up against the dock and
on the rebound her forward end floated
out about twenty feet, where she final*
ly settled.
