Besides these cases of total seizure, single organs and parts 
were condemned from 23,297 cattle, 9 calves, 9,051 sheep, 
19,459 pigs. There were also withdrawn from consumption 
2,727 unborn but nearly developed calves, 7,993 calves in less 
advanced stage of development, and 157 animals that had 
died. Tuberculosis was detected in 4,300 cattle, 8 calves and 
6,393 pigs, and on account of that disease the entire carcasses 
of 985 cattle, 8 calves and 1,442 pigs were condemned, while 
8,322 organs or parts were withheld from consumption. The 
actinomyces in the muscles led to the seizure of 69 pigs, and 
67 in addition were condemned for calcareous concretions. 
In the cases of partial seizure, the following parts and organs 
were condemned : for the presence of echinococcus, the lungs 
of 5,128 cattle, 3 calves, 3,348 sheep and 3,681 pigs; and the 
livers of 1,887 cattle, 2,436 sheep and 4,715 pigs.- The pres¬ 
ence of the liver fluke led to the condemnation of the livers 
of 2,108 cattle, 2 calves, 2,212 sheep and 137 pigs. The pres¬ 
ence of thread worms led to the withdrawal of the lungs of 
788 sheep and 3,237 pigs. No fewer than 249 persons are en¬ 
gaged in connection with the meat inspection in the city of 
Berlin. 
In the quarantine limits around Baltimore, that is, for a 
distance of six miles from the City Hall, an accurate account 
is kept of the cows slaughtered. Dr. G. C. Faville, at the 
head of the United States Government Inspection Service in 
Maryland, furnishes me with the following statistics: From 
November 1st, 1888, to November 1st, 1889, post-mortems 
were made on 5,297 cows, showing 159 cases of tuberculosis, 
which is a little over 3 per cent. The above data refer chief!3" 
to pulmonary tuberculosis. In those cows dying within
