8 THE CHICAGO DATLY TRIBUNE: TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 18 THE HORSE DISEASE. This Community Brought to Realize ike Usefulness of the Equine Species, An Exiraordinary Revolution Wrought in Four Days. The City Railway Companies Authorized to Use ¢ Dummies,” 0x Teams and Man-Power Brought into Requi- sition, Condition of the Horses Yesterday--- Four or Five Deaths Re= porteds A Variety of Interesting News tfrom the Stables. Teiegraphic ltems Concerning the Dis- ease at Other Points. CHICAGO. It is hardly necessary to state that the horse disease still rages. The quiet and comparatively deserted streets of yesterday told the story. There was very litile work or business done. Building was at a stand-still. The material delivered lzst week was all used up, and there wasno way of getting more. Tho streei-cars were resting ir the barng, and the horses were undergoing treatment. The Nicolson pave- ment bad arest, and 2 painful silence pervaded the air. Pedestrians made the best use of their Jegs. Mlen, women, and children went on foot, if they went at all. Some of them did not enjoy it, especially those who believe ° that legs were made to convey their owners 1o the nearest street-car, and no farther. If the prevalence of the disease convinces them that their legs can really stand more exercise, it will not have prevailed in vain. Walking is the best kind of exercise,and if the entire population walked more, we should have a healthier and happier community. DURATION OF THE DISEASE. The diseese, like the chicken-pox or mesgles, “must have a certain time to run. In the East, it Tan its course in about ten days, and we cannot expect that it will cease sooner here, especially if the meteorological conditions continne unfa- vorable. . Every man is doing the best he knows how for his animals. There is 5o uniformity in the treatment, bui disease I don’t know. They would be travelling dovn town, buying Tight and left, utterly reck: less of my inability to meet their extravagant Dills, God Dbless you and the horse disease, You aro dollers and salvation to my credit,” and Le diszppeared like a flash of summer light- ning. LATEST FROM THE HORSES. Our nabobs on the South Side were in the same sorry plight yesterday as they were on Satardey and Sunday, and again had to uso ‘“‘Shoemaker's black mare” to take them to their places of business and to their homes, which cxertion created such an appetito that ‘Wabash avenue boarding-house ladies are seri- uugly considering the propriety of raising their prices of board to something like an adequate compensation for the tremendous smount of hash that disappears daily from their tables. TEE STREETS were again conspicuous by the absencs of street- cars, omnibuses, and vehicles of all kinds ; but, instead,; many novel sightacould be observed. The Boston Square Dealers had wagons out with the inscription, *Mules do not catch the epizootic.” These wagons were drawn by red-shirted clerks, and the zbove ““ motto ” must undoubtedly have referred to them. Warner's medicine wagon was propelled by a lot of dirty-shirted and dirty- faced urchins. The “motto” on this wagon was ¢ Necessity Compels,” and from the looks of the urchins they were undoubtedly compelled by necessity to do the job, Downer & Bemis sup- plied théir customera with the exhilarating fluid of Gambrinus as usual; there were twelve stal- wart brewers harnessed to the wagon, and & stoppage was made at every saloon, where the ** horses ” unharnessed and rubbed their throats (on the inside) with fusil oil as a preventive sgainst the * epizoot.” Many ox-teams could also be observed, and they were stared at as quite a curiosity, Chicago mever does_ things by halves. We mean to be champions in everything, oven in the epizootic line; and, according to the way things looked yester- dey, this city will be ns much_superior 0 other citiesin that discase as it is to-day ahead of them on conflagrations. Two of the 86 horses of Avery Bros. are down quite soverely, end the propristors are ap- prehensive of losing them. AT THE BIG STABLES. Frank Parmelee’s horses seem to be doing better; they aro coughing less and are commenc- ing torun from their noses. Ar. Parmelee still continues to transfer passengers. The horses at Farwell's stables arestill dressed in the height of horse-fashion, and seem quite comfortable in their red flannel Btockings. The express wagons of this firm were propelled by drivers, who trotted through the "rain _an mud all day without catching the disease, and they _ were not Dblanketed, either. Messrs. Farwell & Co. will have several ox-teams in use to-day. Field & Leiter's horees look about the same as Farwell's, and are dressed in the same style and fashion. All the horses in this stable have the disease in & very mild form, and hopes of their apeedy re- covery are entertained. This firm has been o fortunate as to secure nine teams of oxen, which they hed at work all day yesterday, and tfley are greatly satisfied with the experimént, Three of the horses belonging to the United States Ex- press Company kiad the colic night before last, and arenowin & dangerous condition. The horses of the American Express Compa- ny are down very severely, and one of their horses died of = gastric fever yesterday. Dr. Bovett, who has charge of the last two sta- Dles, says_the symptoms of the disesso were graduslly becoming worse, and that he now has more horses under treatment that have pneu- ‘monia than the epizootic. The horses at T. E. Morris’ stable, on Eighteenth street, seem to bo getting better, W. H. Young's horses are doing well, with the exception of one, who has the Jung fever, and will probably die. There are 50 borses down with the disease at Wilbur & Pike’s Omaha Stables on State street, below Twenty- second. These horses are all fast stock, and Sory vilugble, A Bashaw colt, 8 yoars old, is now dying of lung fever. The proprietors were offered. éfi,flDD for him a few days ago. The 500 horses in 2. I. P. omnibus stables are coughing uch experimenting, and by thetime the malady Gisappears a fremedy will probably be discov- ered. The pharmacopeis i being ransacked from beginning to end, and all sorts of drogsand decoctions are served up to tho horse, who is bappily ignorant of their ingredients. Horses &re human in NOT BELISHING MEDICINE. They heve a horror of doctors, and, if they geb well, the sight of one will scare away sickness forever after. Inthe barns they are 21l congh- ing. I they coughed simultaneously all over thecity they would be heard in New York, and might bring the houses down like the walls of Jericho, which, it may be remembered, suc- cumbed to the blast of a trumpet. A unani- mons cough might be sttended with fearful consequences, but it is not likely to occur. Itis recorded that once npon & time, and a very good iime it was, it was arranged that all the inhabi~ tants of the world should shont at the same mo- ment, in order that,the denizens of the moon might be informed that this planet was inhab- less amd commenced running from their noses. ‘The horses at THE CITY BAILWAY STABLES are doing well, with the exception of one, which seems to have pneumonia. Two mules in this stable canght it also, and they do not like it at gll. The Company received permission to run Gummies on State street at 2 o'clock p. m., and at 4 o'clock & *train,” consisting of 'a dummy and two cars, made ifs firs trip, und was cheered slong the line. After a fair trial they will attach abont six cars to each dummy. IN GENERAL. The horses of the fire department were the last taken sick, the first symptoms of disease having appeared among them last Thuredsy. They are all now more or less_affected, but only two very seriously. The Chief’s horse is in & dangerous condition, but it is thought he will recover. There were threo runs made yes- terdsy, which did not seem to make the horses worss, although it is_hoped there may occur no fires, 85 every work the horges are compelled to do seems to settie the disease on their lungs. The department is, s yet, able to do all or- dinary work that may be required of it. At the West Van Buren street car stablesthere jted. The time came, and everybody kept still to hear eversbody else, excepttwo deaf men, and though they yelled lustily, they yelled in vain. Probably the horses wonld do the same with re- gard to conghing. OX THE USEFULNESS OF HORSES. Horses, it need hardly be observed, are very useful. Womsn has the honor of being “ God’s 1ast best gift to man,” and horses might well put in & claim for the second place. We never #fully appreciate the worth of & friend until the friend is taken away, leaving an aching void that cannot be filled. A dead friend i8 a friend in- deed. We think more of him than ever, never ‘mention his fanlts, and blame ourselves because wewere not more kird and affectionate when e had the opportunity. Soit is when disease threatens to deprive us of the horse. We mourn ‘himsincerely,not himself exactly, buthisservices, and feel disposed to remember and enumerate his virtues. He certainly contributes largely to our comfort. When we are born he fetches the doctor. When we go out riding “ by moon- light alone,” he draws the buggy, and tells not the socrets he hears. He is & reticent animal. Ho ia the motive-power before the hearse that carries us to our last home. HE LIEES TO GO_TO FUNERALS. They go,_ elow, and ho rejoices when the ohancas and changes of life make him the prop- ertyof an undertaker. Ho loves us all; he Yicks our hand; he kicks our enemies—some- times ourselves. He propels street cars at five centa o ride, giving employment to large num- bers of conductors gnd drivers. He eats oats, and hay, and corn, affording joy e&nd sometimes profit to the farmer. He drags the plow, and occa- sionally the plowman. He stands upon his ‘hind légs once and a while. He runs races and Tuns swey. He smashes buggies and gives ages to carriage-makers. He “gniffs the bat- tle afar off,” and gallops madly to death in the Cav: charge. He is_a courageous crenture, under the pressure of circumstances. He wina ‘applanse in horse opers, and takes the part of * " ¢HE “ FIERY UNTAMED STEED,” | with Mazepps strapped to his back, Heis one of the pioneers of civilization on the frontier beyond the city limits.

ONE HAPPY MAX. An elderly gentleman, with & gTay ‘beard, bat- tered hat, and dripping overcoat, forced his way into the local room of THE TRIB 0 evening, and demanded the City Editor. On being presented to that personage, the old_gen- tleman thrust out his right hand. ~ He said: I am indebted to you, sir, more than I_can tell. You are dollars in my pocket, sir. You have gaved me money. My wifeand dau, ‘hters do not Jmow it, but you are my salvation. The City ‘Editor gazed inquiringly ab him, and muttered something about being “ ‘most happy.” The ex- cited _gentleman continued: *“Yes, s8ir; you rprought the horse disense here; Jou “and _your paper You prevented 1he cars from running, and nOW m; y wife and the irls can't get down town for the life of them. ney is ECAICE, gir. That $44,000,000 will not boe reissued, and I have only 72 cents in my Roskety Yhsp 1 showld do Puy for the horsg woxE office, Jast | is an evident improvement in the condition of the horses, many being now quite well of those earlier taken. They are giving to their horses ten drops of tinctura of aconite and belladonua, altornately, overy two hours. It was hoped that tMyers' Pneumatic Motor,” which shands in the car-house of these stables, would be in use during this week, but the difficnlty in procaring 5 prmp of suflicient size to supply it with air will prevent it being used for some time to come. The livery barn of Haas & Powell, on Madison street, is in a better condition then most livery barns, Here they have 110 horses, 20 only of which are sick. They avoided the disease by ad- ministering medicine to the unaffected horses and by, keeping their stables clean and free from any disinfectant, which the doctor at those stables (Henry J, Hofilk) most severely de- nounces, claiming that the air is, by the useof it, made héavyand impure, and the lunge of the horse thereby made liable to disense. 5 Major J. W. Byne, of Calumet, has sixteen Thorses, all of which are down with the disease, and some of them have it quite severely. $wo mules caught it first. The Major reports that the farmers in the country are greatly slarmed, and refuse to bring snything into the city, and consequently hay has advanced to $20 & Joed, and is scarce at that price. The West Side omnibus line were the first to withdraw their horses from labor. The first horses that were taken sick was an indication to them that the disease, then in the East, would extend weastward. They have becn rewarded by the majorify of their horses being now able £0 work, and it is probable that they will resume operations by next Wednesday or Thureday. Parmelee & Co. have withdrawn all their Boraes from genoral labor, and are transporting only through-baggage, which is light. The through-passengers are transferred mainly at the various junctions of the railroads. They re- ort that travel, by reason of the horse disease, Eu somewhat fallen off. Their horses areina good condition, and they hope to resume opera- tions in part the first of next week. S 'All the horses of the Btockton Freight Line of wagons, 100 in number, are_sick, but 2 number of them are sufficiently well to work if the weather was pleasanter. ~ They have withdrawn their horses from their line, but it is moreas a precautionary measure than because the se- Yerity of the disease among their horses will prevent their using them. Atthe stable of Dwight & Ramey, on San- gamon street, thereare s number of turf horses. hey raport that these seem more liable to the disese than thoso that have less gentle care. Their feed i8 two quarts of scalded oats twice a day, and the same amount of ‘bran-mash once & day. ’ihe Post Office horses were down severely yesterday, and the mails had tobe hsuled by man-pover. “x0pSE” EDDY REPORTS a1l his horses . well again. He says he can eure any horse, that is not_too far gone, with his “Nagic Powders,” which he invented himself. Ho further says bandaging or blenketing a horse, while boing used, is very injurious, becauso it will create perspiration, and, when the animal stops, creetes a counteraction. The horse should be blanketed whon stopping. The legs of horses ghould not bs_blanketed a all, but rubbed with alcobol mixed with tincture of capsicum until the desired circulation is obtsined. The diet ghould be reduced ot least one-half, and should ‘be composed of equal parts of bran ond oats. in oxtreme cases, the food should be first sealded, but given cold. ~Every effort should be made to keep the blood of the horge as near as possiblein its normal condition; excessive covering leaves the animal so relaxed 25 to make. him comparatively useless when ap- parent Tecovery scems to be indicated. ] further remarked that the disease now preva- Jent, althongh & new one, shouid' cause no ap- rehensions of & permanent or fatal character. \While not a professional veterinary surgeon, he had found no difficulty in treating his own and hie neighors’ horses, every one of which, save one, which was too far advanced whon treaf- ment commenced, Were now entirely well. JESULT OF A POST-MORTEM EXAMINATION. | Aveterimasy sWg9QR bas mado & gost-mortem examination of & horse that died of the disease on Saturdey, and reports es follows : ‘Haying made a pst-mortem examination of & horse that died on Saturday, it may bo of interest to your readers to know the condition in_which I found the throat, and to know thot the disease has o nome. First, the name—acute larygitis; or inflammation of the larynx. I found upon esamination the upper part of the larynx, glottis, and epi-glottis very much in- flamed. 'The epi-glottls, which 15 located on the upper extremity of the traches, and whoso use is to close the top of the trachea wheever the animal swallows, was threo times its natural size, very much thickened, hordened, and inflamed. Just Delow this comes 1ho_glottis, Which was alsomuch gwollen and of a dark brown, almost black, color ; and thio upper third of the trachea, or wind-pipe, Wwas very ‘much inflamed or swollen, £0 45 to close the upper end ofit, There seemed tobe o large amount of sub- ‘mucous infltration of the surrounding parts, There Was Do exudation, no false membrane, no ulceration, simply acute inflemmation with swelling and infiltra- tion of mucous membrane, The cause of this diseased .condition may be exposure, colds, hard labor, etc., but most_probably it i8 produced by some ntmos- pheric poison. The ireastment should be the Bame as for a person, but as the horse is a disagree- able animal to take medicine, we cannot expect the same result from medicine that we would i adminis- tering to a person; the disease must vary in intensity, Tike ail others; and in mild cases the animal will neo Dut very littlo medicine ; keep them warm and quiet give one drachm of the catbonate of potash in one-half pint.of water, every six hours, and apply to the throat externally equal parts of the oil of cubebs and cinna- ‘mon oil, three tites a day, until it produces considera- bl irritation. In the sevérer forms I should give the potash every two hours until it acted upon the kidneys Ireely, threo times a day; also, take six ounces tincture of bloodroot, six ounces' of glycerine, one drachm of each the tincture of jodine and tincture of aconite root and thirty drops of carbolic acid, mix them al to- gother, snd give one_tablespoonful threo times a day, in onehalfpint of water; apply a small 8y blister to the throat externally, and 'hold the animal's head over some hot water, and steam it by adding hot brick to the water, t the same time covering the head with 3 ‘Dlanket; dlso, give ten gruins of quinine, and one-half grain of morphine night and morning ; snd if the ani- mal gots g0 it camnot swallow, 1 would 'give ono grain of suiphate of morphine, with the hypodermic syringe, night and morning. Keepthe animal warm, and wait for nature to produce resolution, or perform the opera- tion called tracheotomy. MISCELLANEOUS HORSE NOTES. 1t is the opinion of horse men that the epi- demic in this city has reached a crisis, and that to insure a speedy abatement of the disease, no horses should be worked who are in the least affected, as the result when they are worked is that the disense settles upon the langs, in which case the animal is in & very serious condition. The disease when it settles upon the lungs is ag contagious a8 at first taking, and will affect all those horses who are in & convalescent state. Therefore, all sick horess on the street should be at once removed, that we may not suffer the severity with which the malady has been attend- ed in the East. An ordinary occurrence on State street yester- day afternoon, attracted most_extraordinary at- tention. A horse hitched to a buggy determined to show that he was free from disease, begana series of lively movoments, whereby he became almost unmanagesble. Ho attracted s crowd of epectators, and made himself & hero of what is now-a days a most remarkeble circumstance. The deaths are few, and only result where the horse has been kept at work after the disease is upon him. It then settles upon the lungs, and is generally fatal. We hear of four deaths yes- terday, one of a horse belonging to the Mor- chants’ Union Express Company, one in Wallker's stone yard, one in Price place, on the West Side, and Mr. W. W. Boyington's’ $1,000 animal. Tllere is always some amusement croated by & general calamity. _ This was exemplified yester- 6ay afternoon by the appearance on the streets of aclosed wagon, covered with flags, contain- ing & fife and drum band, sent out by the Bos- ton One Price Clothing House,” drawn by a number of their employes in rubber coats. Dr. Henry J. Hofolk reports that the diseaze hea not developed any more serious phases, and if horses are Erapnrl cared for thoy will all have recovered in three weeks. He advises that where horses have swollen glands and are dryat the nose, they bo stesmed every two hours with bran or hay-flowers. This will soften the glands and start their noses to running. The Fire Patrol, an institution run %y the Board of Underwriters, which has on numerous occasions proven its great utility, has submitted to be nnboreed, and, while the sick animals are carefally looked to, have organized to run with the drag-rope, carrying their canvas and axes in s light wagon. Tie Soclety for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals have nngluged three more special pagca, among them Dr. Zarembs, of vapor bath celeb- rity, and are doing good work, especially on the West Side. W. W. Boyington lost s fine horse yesterday ~valued at 31,000, It took cold following the epi- Zzootic. Only the greatest caution can gave many of the animals now suffering under the malady. ‘We noticed several grooms more zealous than judicious out with valuable sick horses giving them gentle exercise yesterdsy. - This is wrong, and dangerous. The exposure must be avoided. Tn the matter of feed, a peculiar thing has been found at the Stockton stables; horees which would eat nothing else, will eat apples with great relish. DUMMY ENGINES. A specinl meeting of the Council washeld yesterday afternoon to consider the question of permitting the horse-railroads to temporarily run their dummies within the city limits. Alder- man Holden was in the chair. Present, Alder- men Knickerbocker, Otis, Dixon, Coey, Me- Genniss, Thompson, McAvoy, Daggy, Stone, Schmitz, Tracey, Cullerton, Bailey, Bateham, Porwell, Holden, Bond, Sweet, Witbeck, Hesth, Gardner, Sherwood, Gill, Cleveland, Schmidt, Stout, Lengacher, Carney, Clarke, Busse, ‘Woodman. Alderman McGenniss offered the following or- dinance: Be it ordained, ete. ; Sectiox 1. That permission snd suthority be, snd the same is hereby, given to the Chicago City Railway Company, and tho North Chi- cago Railway Company, to use on thelr respective railways dummy engines, propelled by steam, forand during the term of — days, or during the discrotion of the Mayor. SeoTION 2. All ordinances and parts of ordinances, conflicting with this ordinance, aro hereby repealed. This ordinance shall be in force from and atter its ‘passage. 'Ald. Daggy moved to strike out the words “be it ordained,” and insert tho word * resolved.” Ald. McAvoy moved to amend by inserting the words * West Division.” Y Ald. Holden said that was the division where the greet trouble was, snd if Aldermen could provide some way of getting adummy over there, they would be much obliged. Ald. McGonniss understood the South Side Company had but two dummy engines, which could not be run_around curves, 80 they could Dot get over on the West Side. Ald. Clark thought it wise to include the West Division, since the West Side Companies might have time to get & dummy; the disease might 1ast for some time. Ald. Tracey offered the following : Resolved, That the Chicago City Railway Company be and they are hereby requested to Tun a dummy engine and cars on Archer avenue. Ald. McAvoy's amendment was adopted. ‘Ald. Thompson moved to fill the blank with fifteen days. ‘Ald. Gardner moved to amend so as to make it read, *fifteen days or less, at the discretion of the Mayor.” Hedid not wantto give too great a discretion to any one. 'Ald. Daggy thought the resolution proper as it was. The horse railronds would put their horses on as soon as they were able, and they would take off the dummies. It was nof for their accommodation, but that of the public. They would tako ol the dummies as soon 23 pos- sible. Ald. Clark said they could not tell how long the disease might last, but still it was as well to Jeave the responsibility of continuance with the Council. ‘'here was no doubt the companies would put back the horses, since they were ches) As for Mr. Tracey's resolution, he did not t! it advisable ; it was better to leave the companics to settle where they would run. d. Thompson’s motion ws agreed to. ‘Ald. Gardner moved to strike out the words, 4 or during the discretion of the Mayor.” It was adopted. ‘Ald. Thompson read the charter to show that a three-fourths vote of the Council was required to pass such a resolution. y Ald, Daggy took the same view, and thought the second section ought to be stricken out. A later provision of the charter was read, showing that only & majority vote was required. Ald. Knickerbocker eaid the representatives of the railway company would accept the proposi- tion to run the dummies. Ald. Bateham had no fear of the dummy en- gines being run long. They wers fow and ex- pensive. He, too, wanted the second section D oaes d b 2ggy’s motion was agreed to. ‘Ald. Bond offered the following amendment : That, from and after the expiratlon of the term of fiftecn days, all ordinances now in force shull b and remain in force the same as if this resolution had not been passed. Ald. Clark thought that repealed all ordinances for fifteen days, and allowed the companies to chaxge o dollar & ride if they leaso. Ald. Enickerbocker showed that the cherter fixed the rates of fare. | "Ald. Bond said the resolution repealed no or- dinance; it simply suspended one. It didnot affect rates of fare, and was added simply as & matter of safety. Ald. Clark thought the first resolution stron; enough, and that the second one did repeal xfi ordinances. Ald. Bond's amendment was lost—yess, 8; nu%s, 21. 'he resolution was adopted—yend, 80. Ald. Tracey's resolution was taken up. Ald. MeAvoy moved to include Stato street, Indiang avenue, ete. The resolution was adopted. The Mayor said two points of objection had been made to such a resolution. It hrl been feared that the roads might raize their charges to more than 5 cents, and the other, that they might not need the dummies on the road for fifteen days. The disease might pass off before that time, and animal power could be replaced. Ho had, therefore, to meet thoee points, drawn up the following additional clause: That nothing in this resolution shall be construed to permit or anthorize said horse railway companies to charge more than G cents fare. This_resolution - shall be subject to repeal ut any meeting of the Com- g:;_: Council before the exsirstion of said fifteen That last clause he had drawn up for the fol- luwu:‘g reason: It might happen that horses ‘would be alarmed by running those dummies, and there gmghe be accidents, attended with loss of life or limb, and the Council might. feel_anx- ious to get rid of the responsibility inside of fifteen days. With a provision of that kind, the Council would not be tied down absolutely to fifteen days. The Aldermen or the Mayor could call . the ‘Council - together any y, _if an exigoncy arose, and repeal the permit. ‘He therefore’ suggested 'the adoption of the addi- tional clause, by way of aim]file ‘precaution, 80 a8 to guard cgainst the linbility to damages or abuse of that permission on the partof the hnr:: railways, or their charging more than five cents. i The resolution drawn up by the Mayor was thenread. Ald. McGonniss said that the railvay. compa- nies did not ask that tgrivilage; it was done at the suggestion of the city authorities. The companies could use these engines but with dif- ficulty. They desired to e no advantage ‘whatever of the citizena. Ald. Knickerbocker moved to reconsider the resolution just passed. Ald. Clark thought that unnecessary. They eould alza 1pm! the one the Mayor proposed. TThe resolution was passed. The Council adjourned. 3 _TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF. Chicago City Railway Company took imme- diate advantago of the above very much needed licene, and about 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon ran a train from Twenty-second street to Lake, consisting_of two large open cara and the dummy. This train will continue fo bo run, dnily, every hour, from Luke street to Twenty- gecond, firat train leaving Twonty-second streot at7e.m., and the last the commencement of the line at Lake street at 8 p. m. The Company 2ro now repiring tho other dumy, and will put it on the track on Wednesday or Thursday, when they will extend their line beyond Twenty-sec- ond street. The North Side Company will probably com- mence operating their dummies to-day. OXEN TO THE FRONT. It has boen the impression that the horse-dis- case would prevent our merchants from filling their country orders. This i8 very erroneous, as ‘they have not, as yet, been'behind on any orders, and rather than be, the inside Yorce will devote pert of their time to the transportation to_the ‘Tailroads of the goods they have sold. Nothing will prevent them from filling all orders that may besent. Country merchants will take note of this. THE POPULARITE OF OX TEAMS ith merchants, consequent upon the prostra- tion of their horses, is being taken advantage of by our ruatic brethren to dispose of their oxen. Yesterday morning at the coraer of Wash- ington ond Dearborn streets a team of oxen with & card upon their heads mpon which was printed in real rustic style #For Sule,” might bave been seen. The owner, upon heing questioued as to their price, ac- knowledged, with all blandness, that he was asking about twico their worth, becauso ho was sure he would get it, by reason of the great demand for them. Messrs. P. B. Weare & Co., commission mer- chants, ond §. B. Chase & Co., telegraphed to Towa, for soveral yoke of oxen for their own and others use. Mr. Weare says he drove oxen in his youth from Siouz City to Fort Randall, and ean'say “gee” and ‘“haw” 8028 to guide the most stubborn steer. He thinks that profanity enters largely, but unncceswarily, into the ver- nacular of ox drivers, and is foarful of tho effect of the introduction of oxon into the community, believing that it will bave & bad influence upou the youth of the city, and tench them new and strange imprecations. Fiu?d, Laeiter & Co., have stabled all their horses and are trausporting their goods by ox-power. They had fourteen yoke working yesterday, and will l}m on more to-day. A great crowd gathered on Market street, yesterday morning, at the side entranco, much amused to tee the heavily loaded trucks hauled by ox teams. They generally did their work, with the demuro patience, they would baul saw-loge in the bosom of a wild wood. Most of the teams are hired and with their accomplished_drivers, who beat them like men long used to the business. The United Statos Express Company bas re- ceived six_yoke of oxon from Wisconsin, and four from Indians. TFive yoke arrived yesterdsy morniag, and were put on'the road in the after- noon, to take the place of men and boys, em- loyes of the company, who have boen perform- Ing fots of draft since tho disoase incapacitated that corporation’s horses. Messrs.

The suburban trains of the Michigan South- ernand the Chicago & Rock Island Railroads did = good business yesterdsy, and greatly to he eatisfaction of South Side residemts. The number will be immensely increased as the pub- lic begin to appreciato the new connection be- tween. their homes and businces. To enters warmed snd luxurious car ot Twonty-second street and points below, and alide smoothly townward, stopping easily at all crossings, and moving without jur or jolt, was something so entirely unlike nsual street-car experiences, that it came goothingly to the mind of the citizen, harrassed by his sick horse, and the general equinine embargo. The railroads have done no- bly in this thing, and if the public make the use of the advantsges they deserve, it is by no means certain that wo have not established & new era. of city communications, essier, speedier, and every way more satisfactory, practically leaving the strest-cars to the service of shorter routes.

The prevalence of the horse disease, which has so disastrously affected business in this city and in other parts of the country during the lasy two weeks, makes it of some interest to note ‘hovw vasat is the capital invested in horses in this country, which has been placed in jeopardy by the epidemic. The number of the ‘horses in the country has more than doubled since 1850, and is estimated to have been 8,990,000 in February Iast. They are estimated to have been worth $659,707,916, the average price of each snimal being $73.87. They are owned in the largest numbers in New York, Texas, Ohio, Indiana, Tllinois, Tows, ‘and Pennsylvania—the great agricultural Btates of the country. There are also in the United States 1,276,300 mules, valued at §8,242,220. The gross value of ihe horses and mules of the whole conntry is $780,- 785,282, compared with $321,562,693 in oXen and other cattlo; $329,408,983 in milch cows; $88,- 771,197 in sheep, and $188,733,828 inhogs. It will be seen from these figures how serious an inroad would bemade upon the business of the countryif, from any cause, We should boe deprived of our horses ermanently, or for any lenfi:h of time. 1t is a fact, in ®pite of fhe great additions that are constently making to the means of geme- ral locomotion, that the demand for horses is rapidly growing in all parts of the world. The horseis an_indispensible agent in civilization. Every one has been made to feel how much dis- comfort ag well as actual loss is entailed upon the community by the absence of horses for & few days from their usual work, but it is too early yet to sscertain tho actual diminution of numbers which will result from the disease now raging. The number of horses in the country has incrersed very rapidly since the cloge of the war, and for the past year or_longer the price of horseflesh hag been much redu If the result of the epidemic shall be to raise the value of good horses for a time, some of the horsemen will not be sorry. ELSEWHERE. 'BOCKFORD, ILL. Special Despatch to The Chicago Tribune. RockForD, Til., Nov. 4.—At last the horse epi- demic has strock our city. Up to Saturday, not a case was reported, but this morning it seemed to burst forth suddenlyin our midst, and reports have constanily been received. Up to this writing it is estimated that no less than fifty cases of the malady are under treatment in this city. No fatal cases are as yet reported. NEW_YORK. ‘New Yonk, Nov. 4.—The horse disesse is rap- idly abating in this city, and tho streets seem to have their ucual number of horses. Large num- ‘bers, however, still show a running nose, and others slight symptoms of the distemper. 'The mortality was not 80 great yesterday as on Bat- urday, but many deaths occurred. ‘New YouE, Nov. 4.—Evening.—Thers was an incressed number of horses on the streets to- day ; also an increase in the number of cars run- ning on the_different railroad rontes. The dis- ease is avidenfii abating, but it will be some time yet, from the condition of the horses, be- fore the disease disappears from the city and neighborhood. A physician of Jersey City has four patients under his charge, who have been taken down, within the past two days, with complaints simi lar to the epidemic now prevailing among the horses. The doctor states that, about thirty yenrs ago, an epidemic broke out somewhat sim- T o tios one. and was followed by a like epi- demic among the human species. PHILADELPHIA. PrrApeLPEIA, Nov. 4.—The horse disease has caused a partial ‘suspension of business. Few horses are on the strect. Most of the cars have been withdrawn. Two deaths are reported. An attempt to run dummies failed, the wheels not fitting the track. Clear weather is improving the sick horses. PEORIA. PEORIA, 11, Nov. 4.—A fewcasesof the horse disense have appeared here, butno fearis en- tertained that it will spread. The dayis rain: and cold, and very favorable to the malady, and . thore may be an increase to-morzow. WABHINGTON. ‘WasrNGTON, Nov. 4.—The President’s horses are sick. 3Man power has been substituted for horse power in many cases. Mails are thus car- ried. The Departments suffer from the sickness of their horses. No street-cars are running to- day. Very fow hacka are in service. Nineteen- twentieths of the horses in the District are sulfering in & mild form. Several deaths are re- orted. The malady bas alao reached the mules. ‘ehicles are driven slowly, and the animals are otherwise treated with care. ALBANY. Axvmaxy, N. Y., Nov. 4.—There is as yet no abatoment of the horse disease here. RBOCHESTER, N. ¥. ROCHESTER, N. Y., Nov. 4—The horse epi- demic has go far abated that one would not sus- pect its being here at all. Meny horaes hove re- covered, and most are convalescent. The canal horses ‘are worse than the others, and a fow boats are detained. BROOKLYS. New Yorg, Nov. 4.—The disezse began to show yesterday, in Brooklyn, new and alarming symp- {oms, attended b{ swelling legs and a diecharge of blood from the nose and ulcerated throat. Trenty deaths are reported. NORFOLE, VA. L NORBFOLE, Va., Nov. 4—The horse disease has disabled nearly all the laboring horses here, and many in the surrounding country. The strect cars have stopped running. 0SWEGO. 0swEao, N. Y., Nov. 4.—There is no improve- ment in the horse disease. GOLDSBORO, N. C. Gorpssoro, N. C., Nov. 4.—The horse disease has made its appearance in this place. KINGSTON, N. Y. ExostoN, N. Y., Nov. 4.—Four deaths from tho horse disease are reported to-dsy. The in- fection is spreading moro widely. LANSING. Detrorr, Nov. 4.—The epizootic bas broken out in Lansing, Mich. PEORIA, ILL. Special Despatch to The Chiicago Tribune. PEoRIA, 11, Nov. 4.—Some feara are enter- tained that the horse disease will make its ap- pearance here, for the reason that a distemper similar to the epizootic cpidemic bas shown it- self among some horses. The .damp, rainy weather is very favorable, and & few days will show whether there are any grounds for appre- hension. AMUSEMENTS. ATEEN’S THEATRE. The statement sounds incredible, but it is- nonoe the less true, that, in spite of suspended street-car travel, and the general disability pre- vailing in the horse kingdom, together with a cold and drizzling rain, Aiken's Theatre was more thaa half filled, last night, on the occasion of the initial performance of “ Humpty Dumpty,” with George L. Fox ss the leading attraction. If a theatre could be helf filled under such circumstances, wWhat might have been in pleasant weather, and, with the customary means of travel, unimpeded? People would have been hurried away from the door every night of the engage- ment, and will be yet, no doubt, if our affairs get. straightened around within the next two weeks. Thisis the “Humpty” of all “Hump- ties,” and Fox is the only Fox. So far as man can 'be great, whose only mission on eerth is_to ovolve transcenlant fun and nonsense, Fox is great, and it is cortainly something to be the rentest of living clowns. His wkolo jorie lies in his wonderful facial expression, which is sim- ply immenso. He relies not at all upon bodily gymnastics and contortions; in fact, his gestures are few and far between; his countenance does it 2ll, and does it as not- even words could do. He is admirably supported by his_brother, C. K. Tox, as Pantaloon, snd by Mr. Ravel an Miss Blanc as Harlequin and Columbine. The pantomime has been handsomely placed upon the stago in point of scenic and transformation effects, and it is to be hoped that the liberal ont- lay made by Mr. Aiken in this direction msy not continue to be requited by epizootic_and equi- noctial. The public need fun once in a while, and everybody will wish_that wo may seo tho ond of our present; diffcultics long before “Humpty Dumptys” diminutivoe pony gets the _ catarth = and ig sent sbroad for his heslth. The incidental features of the performance are in the main of the highest order. We have hadno_finer ath- letes than the Wilson Brothers; Mons. dar- ten’s burlesque of the ¢ Carnival of Venice” is & genuine oddity in violin golos. _ Senor Cassell’s Wire evolutions aro excellent ; the infent veloci- ede exorcise is especially neat; and the cab uett by the Martens is something almost in- ‘human in its feline fidelity to nature. The latter waa received with the most uproarious spproval, and won & hearty encore. From firat to last, the performance is notably fine. s A NEW DRAMATIO COMPANY. _ . Mesers, B. M. Hooley and John W. Blaisdell will go East next week for the purpose of en- aging first-class dramatic company for Hoo- Tey's Theatre. Their design is to secure & com- pany equal to any in Americs, P8ying especial attention to the requisitesnecesssry for the pro- duction of elegant comedy and the best modern a5, and Mr. Hooley hias determined to thor- oughly test Chicago’s appreciation of plays su- perbly mounted and finely-produced in -2l xe spects. Mr. Blaisdell, always a favorite actor in this city, will bea prominent member of the company, as will also Mr. J. G Padgett, who will assume the stage management. If Mr. Hooley ehall be equally fortunate in the Belection of the remaining members of his new company, we think we need have nd fears for the future. The new order of things will egin on or about Dec. 23. " A'VICKER'S THEATRE. ' Z Among her other woes, Fanchon last night surveyed tho melancholy epectacle of a nearly empty auditorium. We all know why. it was 80, end il trust that before the week is over Mg~ gic Mitchell may havo the pleasure of eeing her .many friends out in full force.

It must not be supposed that, because « Humpty Dm}uty ™ ig splendidly prodiced else- where, it is neglected or pnoxlg done at'Hooley’s by the Abbott & Kiralfy Combination. Indeed, there are many distinctive feature of excellence which, under ordinary circumstances, would win a large share of public sttention. -Notable among these are the specialties of the Kiralfys, chief among which is the Shield Ballet, which is one of the finest effects of the kind ‘that have been given by this talented troupe.

Daniel Davidson, the engi- neer of the passenger train, had his head se- verely cut, and-an arm broken. A brakeman known as George had his right leg fractured, and w8 internally injured. Themail agent and sev- eral of the passengers were severally bruised, though none were fatally injured. In the train there were seventy-five passengers, whose es- cape from instant death was miraculous.

The work of remov- ing the wreck was continued all night and all day yesterday, and at 7 o'clock last night, when our reporter left, the fires made of the ruined cars were still burning. The accident was the result, it is said, of & most stupid and criminal negligence.

This applies to some of the finest pairs in London, for whosa hire a large sum is paid. -The conyenience of the plan is that it eaves trouble, and if a horse falls dead it can be instantly replaced withott cost to the hirer. The carriage horses in London have shown a decided improvement since the fall of the second empire. Louis Nspoleon's sgents ond Parisian grandees were previously continu- ally buying up tho finest. A pair of fino coach horses £2,000. Those of the late Lord Foley, who died o years ago, were long noted as the finest in Londor. That nobleman gold his ancestral es- tates for 84,500,000 to the present Earl of Dud- Toy, and, concentrating all his forces on his Lon- don establishment, achieved the proud distinc- tion of having the best dinners and best ap- pointed equipago and servants in the town. Oddly enough, it is the custom for peopls who have grand equipages to make their bravest show 'at 8 o'clock in the even- ing, when they go out to dinner, and when there i no one in_the streets. The coachman and footman are then in their finest liveries, the former sitting imbedded in his ham- ‘mock-cloth on the box of the stage coach.

These wheels are costly, but run safely and easi- iy ; they have been known for some time to car buailders, but their introduction inio general use has been prevented by the expense. Sheets of common straw paper are forced into 8 compact mass by a pressure of 850 tons.
