REPORTS OF CASES. 
ing of the near hind leg and sheath, extreme irritability, loss of 
appetite, excessive thirst, harsh staring coat. The temperature 
registered 104 2-5 0 F., the pulse 70, the respiration 30. This 
condition continued during the day and evening, temperature 
varying between 103° and 105 1-5 0 F., accompanied with gradu¬ 
ally increasing prostration, the animal being loath to move, 
almost falling down when compelled to do so. 
No swelling was found in the inter-maxillary space, no dis¬ 
charge from the nose, no eruption on the mucous membranes. 
The following day the temperature registered 103° F., the 
swelling at the seat of inoculation had become enormous in size, 
very hot and painful. Gradual increase in the swelling of the 
near hind leg and sheath. 
The animal was condemned as suffering with glanders, and 
destroyed. 
The post-mortem examination revealed that malleine had 
told the truth. 
The mucous membrane of the turbinated bones exhibited 
I 
only a small spot of recent eruption, that of the larynx, trachea 
and bronchia being apparently normal. The lungs, however, 
contained a few well-developed tubercles, but the entire structure 
was studded with an immense number of small hard tubercles 
of the size of the head of a small pin, granular, and of most 
recent formation—characteristic of pulmonary latent glanders. 
With all its apparent symptoms of perfect health, this horse 
was most certainly unfit for the object he was bought for, viz., 
the preparation of diphtheritic anti-toxine. 
PSEUDO-CHOREA. 
By D. S. Wright, D.V.S., New York. 
Dear Doctor :—Perhaps this case may prove of some in¬ 
terest to your readers as an illustration of pseudo-chorea in dogs: 
I was called a short time ago to see an Irish setter about six 
months old, which his owner stated, has frequent fits. I watched 
him carefully, but could notice nothing abnormal about him, and
