AiiTI - TOXIN E SERUM THE Tciisiuan-.Thc Serum SaT-n32.8 Per Ccut.,and at 11 Nominal Cost of Only 10 Cents a Head. The chtei of the bureau of animal ia dustry. Dr. D. F. Salmon, at Washing on, has Bubmitted to Secrevary Wiisca a re; cri upon the experimeats made ia the treatment of hogs for hog cholera with anti-toxiae eerum. This p crura ia made upon tho pame principle as the stiti-tuxine of diphtheria. Good serum has been obtained from both horses and cut tie, a horse or cow being heated with the hog cholera virus in sm-i'd q ;antit;e3 at lirsr, with latere doses cf ttr bailable intervals of time, "i he re bibtaucc of the animal is thus raised to the highest practicable point. Tho blood of f.uth an animal whn injected under tho ekiu of Bwine has been found ;; j!..eeS: both a preventive and a cuio fcr cholera. jl.;s fcvurr. v,am first tested upon suvi'l euirriais in ths laboratory uud bemg foui.d efficacious, was last fail tested in Fa-'e county, Iowa, oa tev ernl herds or swiue containing nltu-f-etber 2.S animal. Leaving out or.o Lird, from which definite returns a to Cuuso of death could not bo obtained, crdy oJ died oat of 244 animals of vh'ca were sick. Consequently 2.3 per cent cf the auiinals in these'herds v. eve Paved. Of untreated herds kept under observation riuriug the p. : iodre-ferrf-d to about 63 per ceut of tho ant raa'.s died. l;r. Sairoou believes that with expei ience a better quality cf ee i'i.m can bo prepared end he has doubt that this percentage can be maintained hcrc-yftcr. Fefeiring to this report Secretary Wilson remarked that undoubtedly the results reported by Dr. Salmon'wero most encouraging to hog raisers. The cost of tho eerum now, paid tho Fscre taiy, is but 10 cents per head of ani in ds treated, only one dozen being re quired, and doubtless ia course cf time this liht cott may etiii bo further re durod. "it is my opinion," said the secretary "that it is of the utmost importance that this ecrnm for the next year tt leaat be mado by the bureau, under our otva supervision, and distributed iu largo quantities iu order to dcracn ptiao its eCic.oncy upon a more ex tended scale. It is absolutely essential that during tho experimental etage pu um of undoubted quantity be Used. Unless the hog growers can obtain it frcm this depaitmeat they wiil bo forced to depend upon what "can be ob tained frcm private sources1, and owing to the raovei ty cf this product, not only wiil disconragingly exorbitant price's lo charged for it, but in many cases inferior products may be offered. This would pieclude the possibility cf mak ing u satisfactory test on a widely ex tended scale. "I proposo to ask congress to provido an appropiiatioa necessary to enable this dspartment to furnish 2,000,000 dozens of serum during the next year, and to nake n considerable portion of tho appropriation immediately availa ble. It seems from Dr. Salmon's re pert that it takes three or four months to put a horse or cow in condition to supply the serum; consequently the work upon an extended scale must be undertaken at once. "The losses from hog cholera are fo enormous and have weighed so heaviiy for years upon our farmers that I can not imagine that Congress will for a moment make the appropriations ne cessary to carry on this work thor oughly Indeed apart from the great Piake the farmers have in this matter, to refuse to provide for a thorough tet of this remedy now would be, indeed, pennywise and pound foolish; fcr the di.-covery cf this serum ha3 involved already many years of work and a very large sum cf money. It would be a greit mistake, now that so great a dis covery seems to have been made, not to lud.sh the work by giving it a thorough and extensive test. STONED BY STRIKERS.

" STANLY COUNTY ENJOINED. Simonton Allows an Injunction That Diocks Repudiation Temporarily. In the United States Circuit Court at Charleston, S. C, Jndgo Simoaton granted Charles Prica, counsel for i Color & Co. , bankers of New York, an injunction in the Stanly county, N. C, bond suit. Tho injunction will for the present at least put na end to the repudiation cf bonds issued by Stanly and other counties for raiiroad-buiiding purposes. The case has already been before the Supreme Court of North Carolina and has attracted much cttentioa al! over ths Stato. Bworn toKoep tlie Peace. A crccialfrcm Richmond, Ya, says: The case of Gen. George J. Hundley, of Amelia, and Capt. John Cussons, cf Glen Allen, who were arrested soma weeks ago, charged with being about to engage- in a duel, was disposed of ia the police court hero on the I8th by the p'aciag of both gentlemen under bonds of 1,000 each lo keep tha peace for twelve months. Their arrest grew out cf a correspondence between the two gentlemen, coasequeat upon investigation of the caso of Colonel Stubbs, grand commander of the Grand Camn of Confederate Veterans of Vir ginia. Sergeant E. N. Thomas and Col. Jehu Murphy went on Col. Cus pou's bond, aud Mr. Geo. C. JeS'erson, Col. Joha Murphy and Senator W. E. Foster, of Norfolk, appeared as Eecur itic3 for Geaeral Hundley. The JJribtry Investigation. The Ohio Legislature has begun the bribery investigation against Marcus A. Hanua mado by Representative Otis during the recent senatorial contest. I The proprietors of the Neill House will be asked as to who paid the hotel bills of certain legislators, and the managers of the telegraph companies will be summoned. The investigation will drag alon for some time. As the Senate stands 19 to 17 against Hanna, with Senator Burke voting with tho Demo crats, it is quite probable that there will bo pome report adopted iuthe body to transmit to the United States Senate. In the House the vote is 55 to o3 the other way, and the House investigation committee may do little more than look oa at the Senate in vesication. Americans Lost Heavily. United States Minister Powell re ports to the Stpte Department from Port au Prince that American residents suffered very heavily from tho recent tire which destroyed'600 houses ia Port au Prince, rendering homeless more thin 2,000 people and entailing a loss cf more than a million dollars.

Manufacturing Activity Fcatare in llie South Rush for Alaska Ueuo. Bradatrcet'a Commercial Review for the past week says : "Distributive trade remains rather quiet, mild weather throughout tho country tending to check tho distribution of winter goods. Trices generally remain steady cr tend upward, eieept for some grades of iron, and oiders for spring trade, where re ceived are encoui aging, industrial ac tivity is rnost manifest tt tha West, where the demand for iron is large. Ihe feature of the week was tno plac ing of au order by one railroad fcr U;0, CO'Jtons of Bteol rails, with smaller orders eggregatitg in tho neighborhood cf 25,0-;-' fens ricre. l'?g iron produc tion is nc at an unprecedented rate, the furaacs capscby being estimated at 1,0 jO.u;:) tons a month. At the South manufacturing activity is a feature, sales of irca being very heavy. A good eiport demand for cottoa and gram at Bteady prices is also a feature. At the East a numLer of strikes against wage reductions are reported or expected ia the cotton industry. Some woolen mills, working on heavy men's wear goods, are refusing orders, their cai acity be ing fully booked. Anthracite coal pro duction, it is hoped ia that trade, will be restricted sulilciently to allow of the advance oi j to 4j cents per ton being ma-nttiined. 'i'kj -weather has been dis appointing at the Northwest, but aa improvement in tho demand developed at some centres as the week advanced. The rush to Alaska has already begun on the Lucille coast. Freight charters ore reported lower. Export trade con tinues large, again of a per cent on the total export cf bteadstuds, cotton and mineral oils, cctLlo and hogs and provisions being shown both for De cember and the calendar year. " TI1E CAMPAIGN OF IOOO. Wm. J. IJrynn's Intention? if He ! Nominated. W. J. Rryan, ia concludiag a 6peech before the Bryen League at the Tre mont Houao, Chicago, III., during a banquet made soma remarks which are interpreted as showing his intentions if he is nominated for tho presidency in 1000. In speaking 0f tho next presi dential election, Mr. Bryan said : "It may be wo will bo'ptrocg enough to win without any outside help. But, nevertheless, I prefer to win with the Populists on ono side and tho fiee sil ver Repub!icaii3 on the other. And we must not forget when the victory is won, that in tho campaign of last year it tool: more courage on the part cf the free silver Republican to desert their old rarty, nndmere Beli-sacriuce ou tha pan of tho i opniixts to go outside c? their organization for a presidential candidate, because he agreed with thorn on the pni amount issue, than it did for the Democrats to support the ticket which was nominated by their own na tional coaventiou. " FOR A FUSION OF ALL. Jones Is Act!i?R for the Democratic Party, Butler for the Populists. As a result of conferences held within the last few days at Washington be tween tho silver leaders of various par ties, it is understood that Chairman Jones, of the Democratic national com mittee, Chairman Butler, of the Popu list national committee, and Chairman Towue, of the Silver national Republi can committee, will issue a joint mani festo with a view to securing common action by tbe three organizations in the political contest of loVd. 'J he draft of the document is now in the couro of preparation. They will appeal to all those interested in the cause of silver to work in union and to avoid rival organi zations by which their common strength wiil be dissipated. LEFT SAFE EMPTY.
