JOSEPH TO ACT MONDAY Other States Expected to Fol- low Suit in Short Order. HOW TO TREAT AILMENT . (From a Staff Correspondent.) Washington, Dec. 1.—(Special Tel- egram.)—Careful and systematic ob- servation of the Nebraska cattle found last week in the Kansas City stock yards suffering with sore mouths has failed to reveal certain typical symptoms of foot and mouth disease, according to the Bureau of Animal Industry, United States De- partment of Agriculture. The spe- cialists therefore are of the opinion that the disease is vesicular stoma- titis, a mouth ailment which ordinar- ily affects horses and sometimes af- fects cattle. The most striking symp- tom of this disease is the occurrence of blisters and sores on the tongue and other portions of the mouth. Not of Serious Character. This disease, while undoubtedly contagious, is not of great economic importance, as animals ordinarily re- cover from it in eight to ten days. Vesicular stomatitis is known in Europe and South America and has heen found occasionally in the United States. The present outbreak, how- ever, is the most extensive yet noted in this country. The specialists of the department, therefore, are advising state officials in whose territory the disease is found to impose local quar- antines to prevent its spread. They advise all owners and handlers of horses and cattle, particularly livery- men, managers of stock yards and breeders, to separate sick from well animals, to clean up and disinfect their premises, and to wash out the mouths of sick animals with a weak solution of permanganate of potash or picric acid. What Experts Find. The belief of the specialists that the malady is not foot afid mouth disease is based upon the fact that persistent observation of sick animals and ex- periments in inoculating animals with the infection at.Washington failed to reveal certain typical symptoms which would be expected in any case offoot apdimouth. disease:+The sic bering,and blisters and Sores are sim- ilar'in appearance to the mouth con- ditions produced by foot and mouth disease, but in none of the sick ani- mals examined has there been found any’ soreness of the feet, whioh is a common symptom of foot and mouth discase. Moreover many horses have this particular ailment, and horses have not been observed to contract foot and mouth disease in any of the previous outbreaks in the United States. Hundreds of hogs exposed to the disease and in closc association with the sick animals show no signs of the malady, and this is regarded as significant because during the re- cent outbreaks of foot and mouth- dis- case hogs “were as susceptible to foot and mouth disease as were cattle. Sheep Not Affected. Exposed sheep also fail to show the disease, yet those cloven foot ani- mals are also susceptible to foot and mouth infection. This bears out the diagnosis, since vesicular stomatitis affects only horses and cattle and not hogs and sheep. _ Finally, the low percentage of ani- mals infeted in ecach of the herds, only a small proportion out of some hundreds, would indicate that this ail- ment is not the highly contagious foot and mouth disease which once it is introduced into a herd quickly affects practically 100 per cent of the cattle and hogs. Where vesicular stomatitis is pres- ent among cattle and horses, immedi- ate steps should bé taken to control & S = (Continued on Page Four, Column Six.) The Weather IFor Nebraska—Falr.

El Paso, Tex., Dec. 1.—“This fight against Villa has just started,” An- dres Garcia, inspector general of Car- ranza consulates, declared today. “We have an expression in Spanish which says, ‘It is only the first plume from the cock,’” he added. “We will have enough forces opposing Villa within the next week to crush the arch-bandit and his following.” “People on the border need not fear an attack from Villa bandits, Garcia continued. “We will have 1,500 men and a large number of field pieces in Juarez at once, drawing gar- rison troops from other parts of the State, and we will have 4,500 men be- tween Chihuahua City and Juarez to prevent any movement Villa may at- tempt.” It was announced by Carranza Con- sul Bravo that refugees had reached Aldama, about twenty-two miles northeast of Chihuahua City; accord- ing to a telegram he had received from Ojinaga, Chihuahua, opposite Presidio, Tex.

British bluejackets were or- | dered to co-operate and the admiral gave warning that prominent person- ages taking part in any resistance would be arrested. The Greek government has given guarantees that order will be main- tained, but it is feared the calling up of reservists will have the opposite effect.

The Russians meanwhile have been attacking heavily all along the fron- tier of Moldavia, the Roumanian prov- ince which projects northward be- tween Transylvania and Bessarabia, in an evident attempt to create a di- ‘version in Roumania's favor. Today Petrograd reports a pronounced suc- cess in its offensive, declaring the whole range of heights along the frontier south of Kirlibaba has been taken by the Russians. Whether this success will have any immediate effect on the operations of the Teutonic armies engaged in the main attack on the Romanians has not yet been indicated. Apparently it would require a considerable pene- tration of Transylvanian territory by’ the Russians to affect the southern campaign. Serious Crisis ‘in Greece.

The unknown craft, the officers said, was moving in a southerly direction, following a Spanish sailing ship. The belief that it might have been a submarine was strengthened, the of- ficers asserted, by the fact that they had picked up several wireless mes- sages from naval stations ‘n Bermuda and from British warships warning British ships to look out for sub- marines.
