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.

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. CLOSINQ PRICES.

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. Robbers Given a Warm Reception. Guthrie. O. T.. Mav28.
