Rabies in a -vcry violent form has broken out in several portious of Ontario, particularly the western district, and the provincial and Do- minion authorities are now 0::- changing correspondence and tak- ing steps to prevent the disease“ A despatch from Toronto says:‘ from spreading any farther. That the outbreak is a serious one is not doubted, but the provincial au- thorities prefer not to discuss it. Numerous dogs and cows have been destroyed as a result of the out- break, and no less than four peo- ple have had togo to the Pasteur Institute at New. York for treat- ment, the result of bites by mad dogs. ' luvcstigatiou has proven that the origin of the outbreak is traceable 1.: an episode which took place three or four weeks ago, when a mad dog ran across the Interna- tional Bridge at Lewiston, to Quconston, and thence up the stone road to Niagara Falls, Ont.. where it b't several dogs on its rampage. it finally fell exhausted in a field and died.‘ Dr. G. A. Hodgctts, secretary of the Trovincial Board of Health and Dr. J. G. Rutherford, Dominion veterinary director-general, are in conference with regard to the situâ€" ation. The Dominion department has charge of all veterinary and live ,stock matters,- while the pro5 vincial authorities look after all questions pertaining to health. Numerous coufmrcuccs already have taken place at the Parliament Buildings with regard to what ac- tion is to be taken to cope with the spread of the disease. It is altogether probable that a general inspection will be ordered and stringent regulations adopted to prevent the spread of. bydrupboj bia, which has been alarming, to say the least. One ordc r which may be issued is that all dogs in Onâ€" tario mustlbc muzzlcd, and if so special officers will be appointed to enforce the order. The situation is regarded as bciugtmost dangerous in the citics. The real danger is from mad dogs running at large. Some owners of cattle. have destroyâ€" ed cows which'havc been bitten by mud dogs. and in two cases veterinâ€" arics were bitten while attending to sick cattle.
