State-wide Quarantine
to Be Considered at
Meeting This Evening
The State Livestock Sanitary Board
will decide to-night or to-morrow
whether to establish a State-wide
county quarantine for foot and mouth
disease which will put a stop to any
shipments or movements of livestock
within the State.
The board was scheduled to meet to
day. but as Dr. C. J. Marshall, the State
Veterinarian, was still in Washington
In consultation with officials of the
Bureau of Animal Industry, the meet
ing will not be held until his arrival.
Messages received at the Capitol to
day indicated that a serious condition
prevails and that the shutting down of
all cattle shipments of whatever char
acter is impending. The effect of this
would bo to cause a meat famine sooner
or later, as not a steer could be moved
from Chester to Philadelphia, from
Reading to Lebanon, from I>ancaster to
Coatesvllle or from Harrisburg to
Carlisle.
The disease was definitely located in
Perry and Adams counties this morn
ing.
Reports are that the slaughtering
gangs are at work in several counties
and that railroads are everywhere hold

tinuous ovation in his honor began.
The train stopped at Mount Union ten
minutes. There the Governor-elect was

Hundreds of school children waving

gratulatory shouts from friends on all
sides, works shut down that the em

big Mount Union gathering which Dr.
Brumbaugh addressed from the real

tendered him at Mapleton, Mill Creek

GREAT BRITAIN HAS HER
INNING AT SEA; FIGHTING
ONLANDRAGES FURIOUSLY
Germany and Russia Both Lay Claim to Successes Along
Eastern Frontier of Prussia; French Official State
ment Tells of Terrific Battles Along Belgian Sea
coast; German Fortress at Tsing Tau Handed Over
to Japanese Government
Great Britain has had her innings
on the sea. The famous German cruiser
Eniden has met her fate. The Koenigs
berg, another German scourge of the
seas, has been bottled up. Thus Eng
land obtains partial revenge for the
havoc wrought on her sea commerce
by Germany's elusive marine raiders. ,
Fighting on land proceeds with sav
age intensity, but without definite !
issue on any of the fields of battle. In i
Belgium Germany's renewed, attempt |
to break through to the English Chan
nel has brought on a fearful struggle I
still to be decided. Along the eastern I
frontier of Prussia both Germany and i
Russia lay claim to successes. In the I
near east the Russians are meeting un
expectedly stiff resistance from the i
Turks.
On the European battlefields the j
fighting is fiercest along the small strip j
of Belgian territory in possession of
the allies, from the sea to Armentleres,
near the French border. Of the series
of desperate assaults made hy the Ger
mans. the present is probably the most
severe, since the allies have declined to
cede the offensive entirely to the
enemy and are meeting attack with
attack.
I To-day's French official statement
I reports that the lighting is especially
violent, that the German advance
| south of Ypres, a few miles north of
the lYench border, has been checked,
I and that further to the south fhe
[ French have made some progress. All
accounts agree, however, that it Is
slow work. The troops are fighting in
a dense fog, from one sand dune to an
other, sometimes creeping slowly j
through the thick grass to win a few j
additional yards.
Situation is Unchanged
Paris advices indicate that elsewhere
along the main battle line the situation
is much the same as It has been for
several weeks. Here and there advices
by the allies are reported and the offi
cial statement announces that the new
German attacks at various points have
been checked.
The Importance attached to the
great battle along the eastern fron
tier of Germany is shown in dispatches
from Berlin, which saw that atten
tion there has been turned from thß
western scene of action, desperate and
Weslnnjton. Nov. 10.— Senator Penrose, re-elected in •!»

* POSTSCRIPT
momentous ns it is, to the east. Ger
many repeated to-day its claim to an
important victory over the Russians in
the north near the scene of the dis
astrous Russian defeat early In tho
war. The Russians apparently at
tempted to break over the East Prus
sian border at the same time they
were pushing their advance further
south, along the river Warthe, where
the main forces are employed. On
this the most important phase of the
battle both Berlin and Petrograd were
silent to-day.
Russians Being Resisted
I The Russian forces which Invaded
| Armenia are meeting with obstinate
resistance, as is admitted in tht offl
!cial Russian report of the Cacasian
I army staff. The Turks apparently of-
I tlcered by Germans, massed large
forces for an attack near Erzenlum
and it was only by hard fighting that
the Russians were able to defeat an
attempt to envelop one of their flanks.
The Russians state, however, that they
maintained all of their positions.
Severe encounters are in progress
between the Servians and Austrians
and while reports are conflicting, the
i best available Information would seem
to show that the Austrians are now
fighting in Servia, well over the bor
der.
The German fortress at Tslng Tau
which surrendered three days ago was
1 formally handed over to-day to the
J Japanese and British conquerors.
