COUNTY- TO ALLOW SHIPPING OF HIDES UNDERSTATE LAW Wagoner and Clem Believe Disinfecting by Dayton

Firm Removes Danger of Plague's Spread. Satisfactory arrangements have been made by the Dayton firm which is making shipments of hides from various parts of Indiana by way of Richmond, to meet the quarantine regulations and provide a guarantee that the hides cannot possibly become a source of bpreading the foot and mouth disease. Before accepting the hides for shipment the railroad companies require an affidavit showing that the hides have been dipped in strong disinfectant. This affidavit is attached to the bill of lading. Dr. A. P. Nelson, state veterinarian, has issued a permit to Ihe company to make shipments within the state of Indiana when they comply with these rules. The interstate quarantine laws require the hides to be disinfected by a government inspector before allowing them to be shipped into another state. There are only a few inspectors in the state, and as Richmond is the most logical shipping point to Dayton, the company desires to have all hides unloaded here and disinfected under supervision of Dr. C. O. Wagoner. Dr. liOU Clem, assistant state veterinarian, said today that he had looked up Ihe case, and discussed it with Dr. A. F. Nelson, state veterinarian, by telephone, and having found that the company had met all the state requirements, it would be allowed to unload the hides here. He further stated that the hides had been handled so carefully there was no danger of the foot and mouth disease being spread. SLAUGHTER STOCK TO CHECK PLAGUE EATON, O., Nov. 19. In an endeavor successfully to combat a spread of hoof and mouth disease in Preble county, livestock valued at nearly $7,(100 will bo slaughtered Saturday at Ihe farm of George C. Sauer, four miles west of Eaton. This action was decided upon Wednesday following a thorough examination conducted by Federal Inspectors D. It. Peeple, of Denver, and Dr. B. P. Booth, of St. Joseph, Mo., and State Inspector Swinehart, of Denver. When discovery of the disease was made a few days ago, but eight head of cattle were infected. Investigation Wednesday revealed the fact that seven head of milk cows had contracted the plague, making a total of fifteen The contagion appeared first in cattle which Sauer had purchased in Chicago a few days before the Union Stock Yards, were closed. The cattle later infected, however, were among those Sauer raised on his farm. QUARANTINE ENDS SALES OF STOCK EATON", O., Nov. 19 Because of f,tate-vide quarantine to prevent a further spread of hoof and mouth disease, a number of public farm sales in I Preble county have been postponed in- i definitely. Previous to the quarantine. farmers who held sales wen compelled to part with cattle at a dirt cheap price, because bidders were not keen to take a chance on that stock contracting the plague. RUSSIANS ADMIT Czar's Forces Give Ground in Poland and Retreat From Tharu. BY FRANCIS LAVELLE MURRAY, Staff Correspondent of International News Service. . PETROGRAD, Nov. 19. -It was admitted today that the German forces along the front from the Vistula to tin- Warthe had made some marked advances, but it was pointed out that this was due to the numerical superiority of the Teutonic troops rushed into Poland from Thorn, and thw withdrawal of the Russian forces to ground more favorable for waging a great battle. The following general review of the situation was given by tlio Army Messenger: "The lack of definite news indicates that the Russian armies aro marching 1o take strategic positions for the great battle that is; developing in Polish territory. The advance lies with the Russians, who will be able to pick the ground on which to tight, the Germans being the attackers. Russians Retreat. "The Russian pursuit of the kaiser's forces on their retreat was pushed to within a couple of marches of the German fortress, but when the Germans were reinforced by new corps drawn from the front, they turned back the Russian cavalry. The latter retired upon a previously determined line which the Russian infantry has no occupied, despite the difficulties caused by the heavy storms of the last few days and the destruction of roads and bridges by the Germans on their retreat. "General von llindenburg is steadily pouring troops into the region between the Vistula and the Warthe rivers. These have greatly strengthened the German advance lines. Though these were checked on Monday they have now advanced, and fighting goes continuously. "The Russian advance guards have withdrawn up the Vistula a short distance. The Germans are also strengthening the other end of their line around Leczyca and Orloff. A great battle is imminent, as the Germans are throwing the most desperate energies Into their efforts to frustrate the Russian operations in East Prussia."

The condition of the two abattoirs of Richmond received favorable comment from the public health committee of the Commercial club which has done inspection work this week. In the committee's report, the abattoirs were commended for replacing old wooden work with concrete wherever possible and for repainting other wood work.

The work of the state and government in this direction is sufficient until the aspect is more serious, the committee believes.

CARRARA FACTION WILL WAR ON VILA BY LEASED WIRE. WASHINGTON, Nov. 19. War will fellow between the Villa and Carranza factions in Mexico, administration officials fear today. Dispatches received from Constitutionalist agents at El Paso report the imprisonment by Villa of the entire convention at Agnas-Cal-lentes, together with Provisional President Guiterrez. American Consul Silliman's reports to President Wilson still have a very gloomy tenor, saying that affairs in Mexico are more serious than at any time since the beginning of the peace parleys. Carranza, says Silliman, has been misunderstood as to his offers to retire. He intends to hang on until he can place the executive power in tha hands of a man of his own choioe, preferably General Pablo Gonzales. Meanwhile Villa is vigorously pressing toward Queretaro, where the Carranza forces are concentrated and where the first big armed clash will occur. 15 STORES BURN BY LEA8ED WIRE. G1RARDVILLE, Pa Not.
