THE NORTH PLATTE SEMI-WEEKLY TRIBTOE: FRIDAY EVENING, MAY 2V1895T
ATTACK Olf MEAT INSPECTION.
frcretwy Mertoa and Dr. Salmon Greatly
Exercised Over the Slatter.
Washington, May 23 Secretary of
Agriculture Morton and Dr. Salmon,
chief of the bureau of animal industry,
are very much exercised over the attack
made upon the effectiveness of the meat
Ihspect.on now carried on under the act
of 1890. The inspection provided for
under the act was to meet the demands
of foreign governments to which our
meat was exported, but the authority
given the secretary was insufficient,
and Mr. Morton has tried in every way
to induce congress to cure the defects.
The truth has been that while the in
spection separated the healthy from the
diseased meat and prevented the export
of. the latter, the secretary was not
clothed with authority to compel the
destruction of condemned meat, and this
could be sold in the domestic markets.
If the legislatures of the states had ta
ken steps to co-operate with the depart
ment by providing for the destruction
of carcasses condemned by the federal
inspectors the inspection wonld have
been rendered effective. But this was
not done and the secretary appealed to
congress. Last December while the agri
cultural appropriation was under discus
sion he drew up an amendment to the
inspection act and urged Senator George
and others to incorporate t in the bill.
The amendment the secretary prepared
empowered him to cause all carcasses
which have been inspected, and for any
hygenic or other reasons condemned to be
tanked, rendered or otherwise disposed
of in a wav that shall effectuallv ore-
vent the sale of the same for human
food. The amendment was accepted in
a greatly modified form, but does not go
into effect until July 1. Meantime,
however, the department objects strenu
ously to the intimations thrown out that
the inspection as at present conducted
in nowise protects the domestic con
sumers. The Becretrayjwithout the defi
nite authority of law insists that he has
accomplished much with reference to
trichina? in pork.
BIG MUDDY GROWING RESTLESS.
River Again Encroaching Upon Nebraska
Soil and Trouble May Ensue.
Decatur, Neb., May 53. The Big
Muddy is again playing havoc among
the farmers on the Nebraska side, op
posite this city. It is conceded here
that at least one-third of the original
townsite has vrashed away. Two farm
ers, O'Rourke and Evans, have lost
large portions of their farms.
BiiAiit, Neb., May 23. The Missouri
river is exhibiting premonitory symp
toms of going on its annual June ram
page. The railroad company is pushing
work in the effort to protect the ap
proaches to the Blair bridge. The river
shows some indication of a desire to
slightly swerve from its course and the
railroad company is making extra efforts
to prevent such an occurrence. A large
force of men is employed in construct
ing the ripraps.
Will Be Tried In Boyd County.
Lincoln, May 23. The supreme court
has refused to grant the request of
County Attorney Murphy of Holt coun
ty to remand the trial of the' alleged
lynchers of Barrett Scott back to that
county. The case against the men un
der arrest will be tried in Boyd county.
TEMPEST IN THE WHEAT PIT
July Made a Wild Lunge For the Dollar
Mark, Touching 32 Cents Cables
the Feature.
Chicago, May 23. Wheat started
with a wild lunge for the dollar mark to
day, touching 82c for the July option
before 9:30 o'clock. The traders had
prepared themselves for another wild
day in the pit, and at the tap of the
opening bell almost every man on the
floor apparently was yelling for wheat.
There was but little on sale, and the
market opened wildly at from 3c to -Jc
advance over last night, the first trades
ranging from 80c to 81c as compared
with 77)c at last night's close. The
Wo-nmfits in 81c wheat were too allur-
ine for many of the fortunate holders,
i 1-4. 1 .
and as tney Degau iu ju uj. iul&v
quantities tho buying panic of the open
ing subsided and prices dropped from
the high point. From 81c July tumbled
rapidly to 79c, reacting about 10
o'clock to 81&c
The market was very nervous during
the last hour, July selling at 81 to 81c
and -was very erratic finally, closing at a
decided slump, the last figures being
78Kc for July.
The immediate cause of the bulge was
the condition of the foreign markets.
Liverpool was reported as plunging
madly, about 5o above yesterday's price,
and other European markets were al
most as radically strong. Crop damage
reports were still pouring in from all
portions of the wheat belt, adding to the.
fever of the bulls and the stampede of
tho bears, and much of the routine mar
ket news was bullish as well..
Corn and oats followed wheat.
Provisions were steady on the strength
in grain despite heavy hog receipts.

Experience of a Dutch Brigantine In
the Mediterranean.
CAPTAIN AND MATE KILLED.
Teuel Bobbed of Everything Movable and
Left to Drift Almost Helpless or tho Sea.
Consul Spragne's Report to the
State Department,
Washington, May 23. Piracy in the
Mediterranean sea, almost within sight
' of Gibraltar, is so unusual as to lead
Consul Sprague at Gibraltar, in a report
to the state department, to give an ac
count of the experience of the Dutch
brigantine Anna off the Biff coast on
April 12. The vessel, laden with ou,
was becalmed about seven miles off the
shore, when a boat approached, manned
by seven or eight savage looking Moors,
stripped to the waist, with their heads
shaved, except a long tuft of hair on
top, and armed with rifie3 and long
knives. They hailed the Anna and or
dered the captain to lower sail. Upon
his refusal to, they began firing and
then boarded the vessel. The crew re
sisted desperately, but having no fire-
arms, save one revolver, were overpow
ered. The captain was mortally wounded
and died that night, and the mate, after
felling one pirate with a crowbar, was
shot and vpounded in four places. The
pirates carried off everything movable,
even the cabin doors, and left the ship
without lights or compass, to be worked
with great difficulty by the crew to
Gibraltar. The affair 'has created a stir
at Gibraltar, where it is held that such
outrages almost within sight of Europe
are a slur upon civilization, and the
Dntch government is investigating the
matter.
Reithmann Has Not Made Reports.
Denver, May 23. Zeph Thil, re
ceiver of the German National bank,
has begun suit in the district court
asainst tho assignees of John J. Keith
mann and John J. Reithmann & Co. to
compel them to show cause why they
have not made reports of the condition
of the estate and to collect the individual
liability of Reithmann as a stockholder
of the defunct bank. It is set forth
that John J. Reithmann owed the Ger
man National bank $125,597.29, and
was owner of 1,057 shares of the bank's
stock, which, under the ruling of the
comptroller of the currency, on the
liability of individual shareholders,
should realize $105,700. The German
National bank is therefore the largest
creditor of the Reithmann concern.
The report filed shows only the status
of the wholesale and retail drug store
property. The real estate amounts to
more than 1,000,000.
