" niSSATlsriKI ) K.VXICEUS. Protest Asninst the Callina ; of the Three 1'crCcRt. Bonds. WASHINGTON , Sept. 20. Inquiry was nmdo at the treasury department to-day in regard to the published statement that na tional banks .are being greatly disturbed by calling In the three per cent , bonds which form the prlucipal basis of their circulation. It was learned that several of these Institu tions have given notice of withdrawal from the system and others are trying to havn their called bonds returned as a basis for cir culation , preferlng to forego the Inteiest al together rather than risk buying tlio four and four and one-half per cents , at tlio present high premiums. It has been held by the treasury department that wnen the bonds cease to bear Intelest they become unavail able ns a basis for circulation. This ruling , however , has lately been contested bv some banks and the question has been referred to the attorney general for his opinion. Until this decision Is rendered the department must , of course , adliuro to Its practice. In many OT-e-t. however , banks whose bonds havoh. ; called are deferring their replacement , ex pecting , apparently , a decision allowing thosn bonds to remain. In the meantime the comptroller of the currency , treasmer and register are so busily engaged with replace ments and withdrawals that it Is not consid ered likelv the department will bo very exact ing with the banks that have failed to .surren der their called bonds. A letter was lecel ved to-day from H leading financier of Now York suggesting that , as an exchange of bonds will lock up a good dcalot money lust at this time when it is In great need In moving crops , etc. , it would not bo well for the cov- cinment to foice the banks beyond a reason able degree of diligence In substituting other bonds for the calU d Us.

( Special Telegram to thu UIK. ) ( ifivei nor Dick Oslcsby , wearing a critical look bun I ml liU "specs , " headed the parly of plouio pneumonia experts that took the ic ular dally excursion out tothol'liicnlx distillery this morning to Inspect the cattle there tor traces of the dreaded disease. The governor was accompanied by Dr. Salmon , state \cterlnarlan ; Attorney General Hunt , who came up to discuss the le a ! aspect of the matter ; Dr. Itauch , secretary of the state board of health , who saw In the excursion a good opportunity of Investigating the quality of milk extracteil fiom cows fed on swill and quarteied In bad-smelling sheds , and by Dr. ISobeitson , president of the Iowa state boaul of health ; Dr. Do Wolf , Vetcilnarian Cas- well , Dr. W. O. Baker of Champaign , 111. , Mr. Pearson and Mr. MeCliesney of the state live stock commission. Pearson's streak of economy , which led him to make i o of the North Side street cars to get to the distillery jestciday , vanished this moining In the presence of so much authority , and ho hired tin ee hacks to carry the distinguished visit or ? . The party left the Giand Pa cific at 11 o'clock and got to the distillery a llttlo before noon. A half hour was consumed by the go\ernor In nibbing his rleht ear against the cow's ribs to detect the presence of some tlaw in the lungs , and In scraping small spots of swill from his fall overcoat , and then the crowd adjourned to sco a sick cow despatched by Dr. Baker. The governor shuddered as the animal kicked In her last struggle for life and cast her fast-glaring eye on him lu mute appeal. But when the doctor dragged thu ungsoutand sliced thorn up , the governor pa/ed on the moist chunks with the Inteiest of an old expert in animal diseases. All thu doctors agiced that the animal had a splen did case ot plemo , and Dr. Uobuitson took n slice of the light lung away with him to show the Iowa people what kind of a breathing apparatus the Illinois cattle have. After this examination the excursionists dioyo over to the Shufeldt distillery to make an inspection tlii'ip The visit of Dr. Rauch Is looked upon with suspicion by milkmen , as It is feared he will make n report to thu boaid lecommunding the stoppage of the sale ot milk I mm dis tillery cows. Dr. Kauch took possession of the I'lucnlx about twelve yeans azo , ns he savs , because of the filthy condition of the stables. He would not say to-day whether the stables aio any cleaner now than they were at the tiuio men tioned. Ho also lofused to tell what ho in tended to do with refeienco to the milk ques tion. Tlio milkmen aic still protesting - oiously against the condemning ot the nni- maK Ono of them this morning objected to the doctors "making any experiments" with his cows , and ho looked with stloomy disfavor on the governor in his act of testing the les- pliatlon of thu brutes. He was told that ho would be paid for all the cows killed and his wi.xth subsided. Another milkman last night got his cow out of quarantiuo and , eluding tlio sheriff , swam it across tlio river behind a boat. But the cow was unable to land on the other side , and after repeated efforts to get a foothold on the dock , sank back into a watery giave , leaving the owner to mourn her loss. Tlio state live stock commission held a long meeting with closed doois this attcrnoon and evening , and discussed the disposition of the cattle aflllcted with pletiro-pneumonia In Chicago distilleries. Governor Oglesby , Attorney General Hunt and Dr. Kauch , ot the state board of health , took part in thopio- coedlngs. Veterinarians Salman. Casewall. Hughes , Baker , Murray , Atkinson , and the Iowa state veterlnailan were present. J. 13. Sherman , president of the live stock ex- chanire , Elmer Washburn and the exchange attorney , Mr. Coy , also attended the session. The latter three gentlemen admitted that whether tlio sickness was contagious plcuro- pneumonia , as the veterinarians had all de cided , or something else , it was unquestiona bly a dangerous disease und one that should bo exterminated at all ha/ards. They agreed with the board and veterinarians that the only safe thing to do would bo to destroy all the animals that had been exposed or were ntfected. It was proposed that a post mortem examination on napfi animal should be held , and these found to be healthy should fco 8 M for beef. The representatives from stock yards strenuously opposed his proposition. They said they would not allow the exposed cattle to bo placed on the maiket either on hoof or as beef. The live stock interests of the west weio too great and widespread to be so jeep ardised. Humors would soon be cast abroad that diseased meat was ollercd for sale in Chicago. The eastein and foielgn trade would surely suffer. Canneis would not daio handle beef , as a largo part of their trade was with foielgn countries and they would not take the risk of having edicts Is sued by other nations pioliibitlng the Im- poitatlon of American canned beef. Tim sale ot healthy caicasses mlcht also give nn oppor tunity for the disease to spread and become a standing irenace to the gieat cattle inter ests ot the we.st. During the discussion it was developed that should the li.ooo cattle now under quai- antino bo slaughtered and either actuated or sent to rondel Ing establishments , ( lie expense would probably reach S10J.OOO. An addi tional S50.0X ) would bo icqulred to replace the sheds If burned. To cover this outlay of MSO.uoo there Is only available an appropria tion ot Sf'J.OOO. Governor Oglesby stated the sum In hand could bo exhausted and hu felt confident the balance could be depended on from thu next It was finally decided that nllthecattlo now quarantined in the l'hu > nlx nnd Shu feldt distilleries , numbering ' . ' ,000 head , should bo slauglitcied. Tno-hQaid was In doubt whether ( hero wcroanycasvsDf-plcurO' pneumonia in thu Chicago and Kmplro dis tilleries , but It was determined that it , on ex amination by thu mt-mhers to-monow , thcie shall prove to bo a single case of the disease | u either , all the animals exposed will bo slaughtered. When the Conference closed Chairman IVaison said : "I'ost moitem examinations will bu held on the animals slaughtered and well cattle will bo appraised. It is estimated the a\erago appraised value will bo Sin a head. It is not acculcd whether the car- passes ot well cattle will bo sold in tlio mar kets or rendering establishments. Dr. Sal * moil nssmes us that the national govern ment will contribute toward compensating the owners. Congress will bt obliged , how ever , to pass a law permlttlnu such appro priation fiom the government except for slaughtering animals in states having no au thority to slaughter them.
