CHICAGO STOCK TflRDS
ABE ORDERED TO CLOSE
For Ten Days in Fight Against
Dread Disease.
Conference of Packers, Dealers, Com
missioners and the Governor of
the State Decide on Meas
ure of Precaution.
WILL NOT CONTEST ELECTION
C. Ed Taylor, Esq., Republican Nomi
nee for State Senate, Satisfied
With Honest Expression.
Chicago, Nov. 4. After a conference
here today between members of the
state board of live stock commission
ers and the leading stock dealers and
packers with Governor Dunne, the
Chicago stock yards, the largest in the
world, were ordered closed for a per
iod of ten days, in the campaign
against the hoof and mouth disease.
The stock yards, it was officially stat
ed, probably will remain closed ten
days. The order will go into effect at
the close of business November 6th
and continue until the opening of bus
iness November 16th.
In ten days it is planned to rid the
stock, yards of contagion. The pro
cess of elimination will include the de
struction of infected cattle, the disin
fection of cattle pens and the killing
of rats. The immediate effect of the
suspension order will be to stop ship
ments of cattle, sheep and hogs to the
Chicago market, which amount to al
most 100,000 head daily.
All cattle carrying railroads were
notified not to accept live stock for
the Chicago market. The closing cuts
off at once the chief market for 22 cat
tle raising states. .
It was said that stock, instead of
being sent to Chicago for slaughter,
will be sent to Kansas City and other
points.
F. E. White, a director in Armour &
Company, said he believed neither the
meat industry nor meat prices would
be affected by the suspension of the
Chicago end of the business.
WORST EVER KNOWN.
Disease Threatens Nation's Food Sup
plyMay Need Money.
"Washington, Nov 4. The outbreak
of foot and mouth disease among live
stock which, has forced Federal quar
antine over six states, and threatens
a temporary reduction of the nation's
food supply, is the worst ever known
in the United States, according to Agri
cultural Department reports. An
emergency appropriation by Congress
may be required to finance the cam
paign to suppress the epidemic.
New York and Maryland were added
to the'list of quarantined states today.
In Maryland the diseased cattle were
discovered at Hagerstown. Inspec
tors of the shipment traced the cattle
from Chicago.
n Even should the epidemic not leap
beyond the bounds already marked by
it, some three months witt pass before
most of the quarantine now imposed
will be lifted, according to department
officials.

Democratic Senate Assured. '
.- Latest returns indicate that the Sen
ate will remain Democratic with prob
- ably an increased majority. Although
.there is uncertainty regarding the elec
tion in Utah and Nevada, indications
are that the New ' Senate will consist
of 53 Democrats, '42 Republicans and
, one Progressive. The re-election of
C. Ed Taylor, Esq.; of .Southport, Re
publican nominee for the State Senate
from the Tenth Senatorial district,
composed of the counties of New Hano
ver and Brunswick, will not contest
the election of Mr. W. B. Cooper, of
Wilmington, the Democratic nominee,
on account of the unfortunate mix-up
of the ticket voted in Tuesday's elec
tion, according to a telephone message
received from him yesterday by Rob
ert Ruark, Esq., of the Wilmington
bar.
Mr. Taylor phoned Mr. Ruark that
he had information at Southport with
reference to the mistake in the origi
nal ballot voted In New Hanover Tues
day and the attempt to correct the
mistake by putting on stickers, and
while he recognized that there was a
technical point involved, he had no
Hisnnsition to advantage himself of it
and if Mr. Ruark thought that the bal
lots as cast were an honest expression
of the voters, that he would not De ais
posed to try to take advantage of the
technicality.
Mr. Ruark told Mr. Taylor that he
was satisfied there had been an honest
expression of the voters and Mr. Tay
lor then authorized Mr. Ruark to say
that he would raise no question as to
the validity of the election.
This action on the part of Mr. Tay
lor is regarded by his hundreds of per
sonal friends in New Hanover as alto
gether commendable ..and " was simply
what they expected from him, knowing
him as a man of character; and fair
play, regardless of politics. As a high
type -of young man Mr. Taylor has few
equals in the regard of practically his
entire acquaintance in New Hanover
and his magnanimous action in the
matter on Tuesday is being favorably
commented upon everywhere.
BASKETBALL AT BRIGADE
H6HT UNTIL DEATH"
GENERAL
CARRAnZA
Rebels Defeat Bugs and Orioles Win
From Sketters by Close Score.
The basketball games at the boys'
brigade proved as predicted, such as
to call forth all the pent up enthusiasm
in one's nature. These younger players
have been steadily improving until at
the present time they are playing a
high class of ball. The opening game
was between the Bugs and Rebels. This
was a very one sided game in every
particular as the Bugs and Rebels
seem to lack most of the finest points
of the game, their passing, team work,
handling of the ball and goal shoot
ing being far short of the kind dis
played by the other teams. Their
work is slow also as compared with
the others.
In contrast to their work the Rebels
showed much speed, clever passing and
team work which kept their opponents
confused most of the time. In the first
half the Rebels caged the ball for 11
points and the Bugs ut four and these
were all from the foul line, they fail
ing to secure a single field goal. In the
second half the Rebels opened up in
earnest and before the sesBlon had end
ed they had secured 12 field goals and
three foul goals for a total of 27 points,
while the best the Bugs could, do?was
one field goal and two foul goals, for
four points. The total score was Rebels
38, Bugs 8.
The second game was a far better ex
hibition, as these teams are both good,
and they showed much class in their
work. In the first half the Orioles se
cured 20 points and the Skeeters 12.
It looked as though the Skeeters were
in for a bad defeat but they came back
strong in the second half and by fast
work coupled with, accurate goal shoot
ing, they secured 13 points to 7 for the
Orioles. However, this was just not
enough to win as the final score was:
Orioles 27; Skeeters 25. The two points
by which the Orioles won were award
ed by the referee. To select any play
er as star would be difficult as all
played excellent ball though the good
work of James at forward for the Ori
oles and Futrell for the Skeeters was
very fast and good while the shooting
of Rourk took the lead, he securing
five goals from field, while his nearest
competitor was James with four. The
guard work of each player was fine.
