  Kabid 
  cattle 
  

   will 
  not 
  attack 
  a 
  person; 
  sometimes 
  they 
  will 
  butt 
  their 
  head 
  against 
  

   trees, 
  fences, 
  barns, 
  or 
  any 
  object; 
  they 
  wdll 
  also 
  paw 
  the 
  ground, 
  

   at 
  the 
  same 
  time 
  making' 
  a 
  peculiar 
  bellow; 
  in 
  walking 
  there 
  is 
  

   an 
  imsteady 
  gait. 
  The 
  eyes 
  are 
  dull, 
  and 
  the 
  animal 
  soon 
  be- 
  

   comes 
  eniax?iated 
  and 
  dies 
  in 
  about 
  three

  According 
  to 
  your 
  instructions, 
  Inspector 
  Quigley 
  was 
  sent 
  

   to 
  Buffalo, 
  to 
  ascertain 
  if 
  the 
  quarantine 
  was 
  kept 
  enforced 
  

   in 
  the 
  si>ecified 
  district, 
  and 
  report 
  any 
  new 
  cases 
  of 
  supposed 
  

   rabies. 
  At 
  different 
  times 
  he 
  caused 
  the 
  brains 
  of 
  supposed 
  rabid 
  

   animals 
  to 
  be 
  removed, 
  and 
  forwarded 
  them 
  either 
  to 
  Dr. 
  V. 
  A. 
  

   Moore 
  or 
  myself, 
  but, 
  in 
  several 
  instances, 
  as 
  they 
  were 
  not 
  properly 
  

   shipped, 
  the 
  brain 
  had 
  started 
  to 
  decompose, 
  and 
  this 
  prevented 
  

   animal 
  inoculation. 
  In 
  the 
  animal 
  inoculated, 
  the 
  period 
  of 
  inocu- 
  

   lation 
  was 
  from 
  fifteen 
  to 
  thirty 
  days. 
  

  

  In 
  a 
  letter 
  received 
  from 
  John 
  Wende, 
  V. 
  S., 
  he 
  states 
  the 
  

   following 
  : 
  

  

  " 
  In 
  answ^er 
  to 
  youre 
  of 
  yesterday, 
  will 
  say 
  that 
  Dr. 
  Thos. 
  Car- 
  

   penter 
  and 
  I 
  made 
  four 
  inoculations 
  with 
  an 
  emulsion 
  of 
  the 
  

   brain 
  of 
  a 
  rabid 
  dog. 
  The 
  subjects 
  were 
  two 
  dogs 
  and 
  two 
  rabbits 
  ; 
  

   one 
  of 
  each 
  species 
  were 
  trephined 
  and 
  inoculated 
  directly 
  into 
  the 
  

   brain. 
  The 
  rabbit 
  so 
  treated 
  died 
  in 
  less 
  than 
  eighteen 
  hours 
  from 
  

   cerebral 
  hemorrhage. 
  The 
  dog 
  lived 
  and 
  developed 
  the 
  disease 
  

   in 
  the 
  furious 
  form 
  in 
  twenty-three 
  days; 
  he 
  lived 
  five 
  days 
  after 
  

   \\"ith 
  the 
  disease. 
  The 
  other 
  rabbit 
  and 
  dog 
  were 
  inoculated 
  hypo- 
  

   dermically 
  in 
  the 
  neck. 
  J^either 
  of 
  them 
  developed 
  the 
  disease, 
  

   although 
  I 
  kept 
  them' 
  nearly 
  three 
  months 
  before 
  I 
  destroyed 
  

   them." 
  

  

  W. 
  L. 
  Baker, 
  V. 
  S., 
  states 
  the 
  following: 
  

  

  " 
  Dr. 
  Belser 
  inoculated 
  three 
  rabbits 
  with 
  the 
  brain 
  of 
  a 
  

   rabid 
  dog. 
  One 
  rabbit 
  died 
  the 
  same 
  evening 
  of 
  cerebral 
  hemor- 
  

   rhage, 
  the 
  other 
  developed 
  the 
  symptoms 
  of 
  rabies 
  in 
  seventeen 
  and 
  

   twenty-two 
  days 
  respectively. 
  Later, 
  he 
  inoculated 
  five 
  rabbits 
  

   at 
  different 
  intervals 
  with 
  the 
  brain 
  of 
  supposed 
  rabid 
  animals.
