WASHINGTON. Qct. 27- During the last
two years "the riepurtniejj b grlculturo hn
conducted' a sej-jes o ( ; < a 'erlmenta In 'the
tiso of fccruw as a remedy for hogt ) affected
by cholera or'awlne plague. The experl- I
ments were conducted by Dr. U. E. Salmon , j
chief of the Uureau of Animal Industry , aud
the results were eminently satisfactory , I
proving that the dreaded disease can be euc-
ccssfully treated easily and Inexpensively ,
The losecs suffered by the farmoru of the
United States annually from bog cholera
aggregates an enormous sum. In Iowa
alone , during IS'JS , it Is estimated that the
hog ralscre " lost through the ravages of the
disease" $15,000,000. Scores of remedies have
been tried , but nothing even approximating
n specific for the dlaeaso has ever been dis
covered tintU the Department of Agriculture
began Ita experiments. Last year the ex
periments were conducted In Page county ,
Iowa , the results showing a losa of only 20
per cent of the affected droves. This year
the experiments have been extensive and
far-reaching. Thu bureau treated 922 hogs.
Of theno , 170 died , the number Havcd being
olghty-ono out of every hundred. The loss
was only 10 per cent. The animals com
prised neveutecn droves , and of thcco , nix
drovea lost only ono hog each. On the other
hand , 1,107 hogs In other droves were ob
served , nnd not subjected to the uerurn treat
ment. Of these 879 died , showing a loss of
79.8 hogs out of every hundred.
Speaking of thu treatment , Dr. Salmon
.said : "There Is no qucntlon of the effect
iveness of the eerum treatment. Our oper
ations have been viewed with skepticism ,
but the serum treatment for hog cholera Is
no longer on experiment. It Is a proved
success and undoubtedly will save to the
farmers of the United States millions of dollars
lars every year. "
The chofcra serum Is procured by keeping
apart for treatment an animal a horse or a
cow and Injecting Into Its blood a small
amount of the blood of the cholera dUcased
hog. This will elckeu the subject , but It
will recover , when another doao will be ad
ministered and to on time after tlmo until
finally tils blood becomes so Impregnated as
to render him practically cholera-proof.
Then his blood Is Irt. and the clot drawn
off , leaving thu thin yellowish portion ,
which la the scrum. This la used to Inject
Into the diseased hogs and operates to ren
der them llkcwleo cholera-proof , or oven
cures them of the dlacasu after It has de
veloped.

WASHINGTON , Oct. 27. U Is understood
that a presidential edict reni6tlng a large-
number of government officers ftom the civil
service probably will bo promulgated before
Thanksgiving day. The order Is one which
hna been In contemplation many months ,
baUuB been deferred from time to' time
owing to pressure of war business.
As at present determined upon the order
will affect upwards of 6,000 places. It will In
clude deputy collectors of luternal revenue ,
who are authorized to become acting collec
tors , actually serving In that capacity. There
nro about 2,000 of these deputies. The largest
class affected Is thu corps of examining sur
geons of the pension bureau , of whom there
arc in all over 4,100. There seems to be a
general understanding that It will be better
to have these left out of the civil service ,
although Secretary Bliss , whllo understood
to favor such action , would not recommend
it. Over 3,000 of these- surgeons aru stated
at the Civil Service commission never to
have been classified under the civil service
law. The order will clear up the misappre
hension of the status of the whole corps and
place them all outside. About fifty office
deputy marshals heretpforo reported as
classified , but concerning whose status there
has been some doubt because of their being
In the judicial branch of the service , are ex-
i pectcd to be placed In tbo exempt class.
There are other scattering positions , Includ
ing some of a fiduciary and confidential
{ character , which will aggregate possibly
i several hundred.

In this city. It was the concluding state
ment In an address largely ( levelled to a de-
fcuso of his course In the recent mlno rloia

Ho held the operators to bo false In their
deallngh with the strikers , and then revert

Just to forbid the taiporiat o.i of foreign la
bor Into this country : "I felt that I was
fully justified In the couise I took at Vlrden.
That trouble never would have occurred If
the negroes had not been brought here to

tations were representative of the scum of
the country ex-convicts and worthless char
acters generally and the suto of Illinois
should not bo made a dumping gtound for
such reprobates. I do' not pronoie to allow
the operators to bring thcde people here ,
and I took what I considered and still con
sider the proper means to p.-event It. "
Then followed his uncoinpromUlng dcilar-
atton that any train entering the scats uider
similar conditions In the futuovould bo
met at the border and shot to places with

commissary supplies , but that there was
some delay In furnishing quartermaster's
stores. The sick had been well taken care
of , nnd , whllo he had seen some criticism
In the New York papers , he thought most
of the .sickness- originated In tbo swampy
camp at Tampa. There they had to die
only six Inches for water and there were no
tent floors. Ho said there had been sixteen
deaths | p the regiment.

Captain Charles V. Parkhurst of the Second

did not have food. There was also plenty
of forageforthe horses. Ho was wounded
twlco on tbo at'coml day of July and his
wounds were dressed Within a few minute ?
after they were received.
First Lieutenant Conklln of .the First ar
tillery , who was lu the Santiago campaign ,
said the only material defect In the supplies
was In the powder , which he thought should
have been smokeless. He said that In going
to Cuba the suns and horses were separated
but 1m understood that this could not bo
avoided. Ho waa the only member of hlK
battery , officer or man , who had not been
elck as a result of the Cuban campaign ,
Imt he did not think tbo sickness could have
been proverilod.
Major Lebo. In command of the Sixth cav

ing lumber , firewood , horseshoes aud stoves
In the camp here. Ho also said the tents
wcro of poor material and leaked even when

ical supplies In Cuba and that the transport
Onto City , In which the command came

Captain Slretch of the Tenth Infantry gave

IUKKR CITY , Ore. , Oct. 27. A special
from Canyon City states n young man who
was n member of the sheriff's posse Juit
returned to Canyon City with a report of n
desperate flght which occurred between the
whites and a renegade band of Indians.
The nineteen white men and live buck war
riors were about forty feet apart when the
battle began. George Cuttings received a
ball In the left arm , the missile passing
through his lungs. Ono of thi'Indian * , who
was shot and killed , fought with desperate
courage. After being repeatedly shot he
continued firing with his rifle until It was
empty and then fired his revolver until
the muzzle dropped so low that the bullets
struck the ground near the dying redskin's' '
side. Gcorgo Cuttings , after receiving a
wound , started In company with M. Mosler j
for Izee , near the scene of the trouble.
The wounded men became so weak that he
was left near the trail , propped up. against
n tree. When a searching party went to
look for Cuttings they found his dead body
near a sprlug , where he had crawled. The
posse continued In pursuit and after a
running battle killed all Ilvo Indians.
Settlers have been sent to Canyon City
for more ammunition , stating that the In
diana are getting near Izec In large num
bers. The trouble arose over the Indians
accusing the whites of stealing horses.

( Correspondence of the Associated I'rosa )
SAN JUAN. Oct. 13. There may bo said
to be three elements In the population of Sun
Juan today the conquered , the coniiuorlng
and the Islanders. The Spaniards are going
out , but bcforo they go they llml many lit
tle matters to attend to. They have bceu
eo long In posse-salon that an Inclination to
linger for a few final collectloni from the
customs houses , for a few laat round-ups
of this or that business which has n Rolilcn
link can bo understood.
The Americans , na the conquerors , are anx
ious to move In and begin housekeeping.
The Islanders look forward with nil kinds
of rosy dreams to a. new existence under the
stars and stripes.
The ouc thing the three element * , col
lectively and Individually , wish to know
the question you hear on the streets , the
question the Spaniards ask of the Americans
and the 1'orto Htcans ask of both Is this :
When will the Americans take hold ? and
nobody knows. If General llrooko or Captain
General Maelas has an Inkling lie l ° t
divulging It and In default of definite In
formation on the all absorbing topic specula
tion has a good field.
The Spaniards are anxious to leave the
Island and get home. Over 5,000 have gone
already and there are still some 3,500 await
ing transportation. Of this remnant many
are officials , Judlclals and governmental em
ployes and their families. They wish to see ,
the laat of Porto Hlco as soon us possible , ,
as their Hltuallon here Is more or less un
pleasant , the degree of unpleasantness de
pending upon the amount of Castlltau prldo
possessed by the Individual.
llenr Old Grmlfcrfl.
Tills desire to leave Is augmented by an
other consideration. For some time It has
been rumored that the Porto Ulcans will
take advantage of whatever opportunity of
fers to avenge themselves on old masters for
past sins that a knife thrust in the dark
will HCttlo an old score. Consequently , the
Spaniard la nervous. Who knows , ho says ,
what the American ! ! will do In the cose of ti
Spaniard against a Porto tttcan ? It is hard
for him to believe that ho would get fair
treatment , and one of the first things to bo
done after the Americans are in control will
be to dispel his fears on that point.
Meanwhile the Spaniard goes armed at
night , while handbills are circulated con
taining threats against the departing Span
iards , and there Is a revival of the old ,
senseless talk of a general uprising. These
apprehensions of the Spaniards have been
Inflamed by a recent occurrence In Daja-
meti , a town ten miles off , where for some
years has lived an oillcor of the guardla
civile , Captain flotanes. This mai : teems
to have been a good Illustration of Spain's
tyrannical military power. Ho has ( logged
men on suspicion ; his soldiers obeyed lilru
tremblingly , and ho has always been cor
dially hated in Dayamen. Here In San
I Juan It was said that If any Spaniards were
, hurt before they left for Spain he would be
i among the number. So when he was stabbed
In the back the other night the comment
was , "I told you so. " The Spanish authori
ties Immediately arrested thirty-two persons
for alleged complicity In the stabbing. Two
days later all but two were released and
thtRO t\vo have bpen declared Innocent of
all connection with the affair. Hut a flutter
of excitement ran through the Spanish elo-
racnt In Snn Juan when the story became
known.
Arreeelho Incident.
Full details of the Arrecelbo Incident of
Sunday last ( October 9) ) have been received
here , although the Spanish censor declines
to allow tholr publication In the local news
papers. It appears that the trouble began
'
in a row between some soldiers of the Al-
foiiso XIII battalion and a number of coun
trymen. The soldiers retreated to the neigh
boring barracks and after arming thorn-
solves with .Mauser rifles returned and fired
on the crowd , killing four men and woundIng -
Ing many. The crowd , to the number of
200 , DC-cured machetes and rushed through
the streets , the soldiers retreating to the
barracks.
The pcoplo then can-fed tholr wounded to
the house of the British consul , where they
_ found several United States officers and sol-
i cllers , from whom they asked justice. When
i the wounded were cared for the townspeople
i returned to the scene of the conflict to destroy -
; stroy the houses of several well known
Spaniards. Ultimately , however , the per
suasive words of cooler men. coupled with
the establishment of a vigilance committee- ,
succeeded In restoring order. Hut
only for a time. The same afternoon
I a party of forty Porto nicans completely
destroyed the business house of a well
known Spaniard. During the affair an
American was killed. The night was not
[ without Its alarms , There was shooting at
i the barracks , though no one was hurt. Seventeen -
| teen different fires In the surrounding coun
try were counted from the housetops of
1 Arrecelbo.
IneendlnrleK nl Work.
On the following day most of the business
housfa remained closed. That night twenty-
four fires were counted. On Tuesday mom
of the Spanish business houses renialnct.
closed and those who opened their doors at
the beginning of the day were soon forced
to close. Thy military commander at last
Issued an order directing that all place * of
business bo closed forthwith.
The Porto Illcan Is of a revengeful iu-
turo. During the unsettled days of the
Uland transition from ono dominion to
another ho has seen a pretty good chance
surely the beat he will ever have to pay
off Eomo oAl grudges against Spaniards In
general and certain Spaniards In particular.
Ho realized that the time of bucb llccnso
Is but brief and that drastic measures will
bp taken to restrain him aa noon as thu
American are In control.
Nevertheless , there are In Porto Hlco to
day many young men who would prove
good material for a native mounted pollen
force. The higher officers would be , of
course , Americana. Hut If an effort were
made to make the service honorable and
attractive an esprit do corps would be es
tablished , the men would be put upon their
personal and national pride to maintain
order and a reliable organization of provin
cial police would probably be forthcoming ,
constituted of men of good family and
standing. There would be no lack of appli
cants. Spain has found It nec < sary to have
such a force In her departing guardlu
civile.
