DEALERS ASK CITY TO RECEIVE HIDES FOR JSf ECTIOfi Or. Wagoner Objects to Request of Dayton Firm to Ship Goods From Infected Regions. Farmers In every part of the county have been notified by mail of the mass meeting to be held at the court house Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock, to formulate plans against the spread of the foot and mouth disease In Wayne county. Dr. C. O. Wagoner, federal veterinary inspector, today directed attention to the necessity for immediate action to guard against chance infection.' He said that he had received word from a firm in Dayton, O., to the effect that they wished to unload a carload of cattle hides here to be disinfected, so that they could be shipped across the state line. "These hides were shipped out of Danville, 111., two days before the disease broke out there," said Dr. Wagoner. "They were shipped as far as Huntington, Ind, where they were held up by railroad orders which prevented them being forwarded into Ohio. The company now wishes to unload them on us to be disinfected. These hides have had a good chance to be infected with the germs of the disease, and if they are unloaded here and dragged across the railroad platforms, and handled by men who do not realize the danger of the disease, we have a fine chance to get an outbreak started here." Object to Action. It was also learned that this firm Intends bringing two loads of hides from the northern part of the state, where the outbreak has been the worst, to be unloaded at Richmond. Dr. Wagoner said he had no authority to prevent the hides being unloaded here, and that it was up to the local authorities. Dr. Wagoner said: "Thia Incident only goes to show how important it is that we get together as soon as possible and take means to prevent the spread of the disease." Dr. F. W. Krueger, county health officer, said today that he would be glad to co-operate with the farmers, and would attend the meeting Thursday afternoon. In case a representative of the state veterinarian's office Is not present he will present the regulations sent out by the state authorities. He Bald he had no authority to act unless the disease was contracted by some person in the county. Dr. Lou Clem, assistant state veterinarian during the spread of the plague, said that he had discovered a herd of hogs that had been vnccfnated by a Hamilton, O., veterinarian, with Kansas City serum. Cholera serum from Kansas City and Chicago has been condemned by state authorities, due to the discovery of infection in some of the serum at each place. Indiana veterinaries have been forbidden to use it. Call Interests Farmers. The meeting Thursday promises to be one of the largest gatherings of farmers ever held in the county, as they are all anxious to learn the facts regarding the disease which is threatening to tie up the live stock industry of the entire country for an indefinite period. Members of the Wayne County Farmers' association have been urged to attend the meeting and use their Influence in getting their neighbors to come. All farmers notified of the meeting are urged to call up their neighbors and tell them of the meeting, and ask the mto attend. Among other things, farmers will be urged to observe Governor Ralston's petitions issued last week, asking farmers to prevent hunting on their farms. It has been shown that liunters may carry the germs of the disease from farm to farm. The state game laws make it possible for farmers to prevent hunters from entering their premises. Word was received from Dr. F. A. Bolser of New Castle, that he was booked for meetings hi other counties every day this week, but an attempt will be made to have another representative of the state veterinarian's office present at the meeting with a Purdue speaker.

Prospects for farmers who have fat hogs to sell, have not brightened materially this week. The Chicago market opened fairly strong yesterday, but this will have no effect on the local market as long as the interstate shipping quarantine continues In force. The Indianapolis market only is open to local shippers. The continued large run of hogs at Indinnapolis is slowly hammering the price down. Commission houses dealing at Indianapolis say that if permission can be obtained to make consignments to eastern buyers under government seal, that prices will jump, as eastern men have big orders to fill as soon as the stuff can be handled. The Glen Miller yards received a car load of hogs today, and are offering $6.75 for good hogs, but their buyers are warned a'guinst making large purchases. DISEASE OF STOCK SUSPENDS HUITIIG Hunters Find All Farmers Against Tracking Across Farms for Game. Hunting has practically come to a standstill in the past few days in Wayne county. Although about 500 licenses have been issued in the past few weeks, the woods and fields are empty of hunters and cotton tails dare to expose themselves along public highways and in fields bordering on roads. Many hunters stopped plans for hunting trips by a general understanding that hunting will not be permitted while there is great danger of spreading the foot and mouth disease. Those who have tried to hunt within the past few days say it is impossible to find a piece of unguarded territory where rabbits can be sought. The farmers are following out a general rule of not permitting hunting or useless tracking over their farms. The foot and mouth disease has practically put a closed season on game and it is said there will be an unusual supply of rabbits and quail next year unless farmers change their attitude towards hunters. ! i DR.

ENGLAND MUST PAY TAX RATE INCREASE FOR WAR PURPOSES War Loan of $1,750,000,000 Asked to Meet Expenses Incident to Fighting: the Germans. BY LEASED WIRE. LONDON, Nov. 17. Additional taxes will have to be paid by British subjects to finance the British war operations, Chancellor of the Exchequer Lloyd George announced in the house of commons this afternoon. The new revenue producing program will include an additional tax on British subjects of an income tax to double its present standard. The chancellor stated that the country now has more than two million men under arm, and within a few days this vast army will be increased to three millions. "It is estimated," said the chancellor, "that the loss of revenue directly attributable to. the war Is $56,750,000. There are more than two million men under arms, and the country will have to find for the end of the financial year $2,6766.835,000. The deficiency will be $1,697,655,000. The first two years of the war will cost $2,500,000,000. New War Loan. "If two million men are added to the army, the separation allowances, (for families of the soldiers) will cost $325,000,000 yearly." Preceding, the chancellor announced that the government would issue a war loan of $1,750,000,000. He stated that the prospectus had already been issued for this loan, and that $500,000,000 had already been offered. Great surprise was caused by the announcement cf the income tax increase. It had been understood that this would be delayed until the budget was presented next March. It had also been understood that the war loan would be for only $1,000,000,000, but the amount asked was nearly double that. It is probable that the war loan will bear interest of 3 per cent, .and will be issuod at a price that will yield 4 per cent to subscribers.
JURY HEARS TRIAL OF POTATO SELLER FOR SHORT WEIGHT Stray er, Defending Branson, Puzzles Opponents With Questions About Cubic Inches in Bushel Measure. A jury is today hearing, in city court, testimony concerning the alleged violation of the weights and measures act of Thomas L,. Branson, a farmer. He is charged with having sold Albert Griffith, a member of the fire department, five bushels of potatoes but only delivered four and a half bushels because his measure was defective. Weights and Measure Inspector McKinley brought the charge against Branson. Not much trouble was experienced in obtaining a jury. One man, summoned for jury duty, E. J. Sostmeyer 311 South Thirteenth street, was dismissed by the state following a tilt with Prosecutor Reller. He made the assertion that in his opininon Inspector McKinley should "go after the big fish as well as the little ones." Asked whom he regarded as "big fish" he said he referred to coal dealers. Asked what made him believe they gave short weight he tartly -replied he had formed this opinion from personal experience. He said that he recently asked the inspector to examine some coal he had just purchased but the -inspector neglected to do so. He was then told that his services as a juror were not required. Attorney Strayer, representing Branson, in cross-examining McKinley, said that the inspector had testified that he had qualified for his position by passing a state examination. "Now, to see whether you are qualified, I wish you would tell me how many cubic inches there are in this standard bushel measure," said Strayer, and McKinley was busy with pencil and pad for some time before this knotty question was answered by him. Prosecutor Reller made a vain . attempt to solve it, and finally laughingly complained to the court that if Strayer persisted in asking such a questions he ought to be compelled to try and solve them himself. "I won't," retorted Strayer. "I'll admit that I couldn't, but McKinley says he is an expert, and I want to see if he is." LEARNER SPEAKS ON BROTHERHOOD A meeting was held at the Whitewater Friends' church last night for the purpose of organizing a men's brotherhood. Secretary Ellis Learner of the Y. M. C. A. addressed the meeting and urged the completion of such an organization, and showed the good that would result to the church.

"Not a ripple will be caused in Richmond by the opening of the federal reserve banks," was the statement of A. D. Gayle, president of the First National bank today. Mr. Gayle said that Richmond banks have not for fifty years been called on to borrow money from other banks as the supply of money here is adequate to meet all demands of borrowers. "Richmond is one of the wealthiest cities per capita in the United States," Mr. Gayle said. "The banks have always had enough money to meet all demands while in other cities banks borrow promiscuously from other banks. The Richmond banks are not lenders to other banks as the New York or Chicago banks are, but they ! are always able to meet the local demands. That is why Richmond is ! called "panic proof." Richmond banks are not effected by, the $135,000,000 cotton pool which is '. being raised to relieve the southern ' markets, Mr. Gayle said. Allotments j are made to banks in which regularly organized bank exchanges exist while in Richmond the work and functions of bank exchange are performed in the banks by agreement. INFANT CHILD DIES.
