Kov. Ja.ln the cattle con. tlon Itr. Bynerson, of New Kixlco, yesterday offered as a substitute for tbe resolution requesting the fresident to appoint a commission of five practical breeders, a resolution leaving the matter in the hands of Congress, without restrictions, itrl Bynerson spoke at length In favor of his substitute, to the effect that Congress would have the final action at any rate, and It would be better that It be not hampered by suggestions The cattle men all want proper National legislation In the matter of exterminating disease, and are nnlted as they sing, We are coming, Orover Cleveland, three hundred thousand Shout ing the battle cry of quarantine." Mr. Babcock, of Ne York, saw bat little difference between the resolution and the substitute.

Mr. alercer, of Wyoming, asked that, in view of the fact that the Bureau of Industry had been attacked. Dr. Salmon. chief of that bureau, who was present, be heard in defense of tbe bureau.

(Salmon defended his bureau with some severe replies to the gentlemen who had attacked him, especially Messrs. Washborne of the Chicago Stock Exchange. Ha stated that the scare over the Missouri herd was censed by an expert State veterinarian, selected by the Governor as a practical cattleman, and indorsed by the Sanitary Commission of ths State. He gave a history of the Chicago score, and traced the cases of pleuropneumonia to their inception In the East, He said the coarse of the Chicago Exchange was prompted by a desire to' boom business, bnt it wss a blander. He claimed that the bureaa had --v 'j pon as much good as Its limited, power would permit, The expenditure of $20,000 in Missouri would have saved $2,000,000.

and the outlay of 40,000 in Kentucky would hare saved 10.000,000. bnt the bureau had not power to maks this expenditure. Operated in harmony with tbe cattlemen of the West, and with Urn power properly increased, the bureaa oould soon remove all vestige of the dreaded pleuro pneumonia, and aeep it and other diseases from tbe herds west of the Allegheny Mountains Mr. Axall, of Texas, favored the substitute. Sir.

HabooU. of New Mexico, favored toe substitute warmly. Tbe cattle men for ten years had labored for the establishment of the Bureau of Animal Industry, and now the resolution proposed to slap Congress in the face by undoing- what had been already done, Jar. Simpson, of Texas, moved the nnan- imous adoption of the substitute, Mr. Kulp, of Texas, offered an amendment that a committee ot twenty-five be appointed bv the convention to co-operate with tne Bureau of Animal Industry in the recommendation of legislation to Congress, at naauourn, 01 Aiiinots, speaauog lor the Chicago Live Stock Exchange, favored tee resolution and opposed tne substitute.

uenerai javored the substitute. After further remarks by General Curtis and Mr. Clereiand, of Nevada, the Chair declared Kulp's amendment out of order, and a vote being taaen on Kvnerson substitute, is was adopted without dissent. iha third resolution of the committee's re port, requesting Congress to adoDt measures providing tor the regulation by quarantine of the splenetic or Soaniah fever, was mously passed amid great applause. MB.

a. EXDO, Or COLORADO, snbmittad a paper upon the mors- ment of cattle irom the South to the North. The paper waa an argument for a national trail, figures being Introduced to chow the inaoility ot too only two available railroads to carry the catue, as at the lowest estimate, during the removal season, would require '220 cars, equal to eleven trains of twenty ears each, daily to transport tne catue irom one section to the other. lie isTored railroad shipment as tho best, but in view ot tbe inadequate facilities and the uncertainty of shipment at certain seasons, he urged the keeping open of tho trau. On motion ot Judge Hancock, the paper was adopted as part ot the report of tlie Committee on Besolntionh to be forwarded to Congress W.

B. Boborts, Chairman of the Committee on Branding, reported there waa no other manner of aatisfactorily marking cattle than by branding the hides, but recommended as a remedy for the present evil that tho bnnds be made as small as possible, and be applied to that part of the animal where they would do the least harm to the hide. Mr. O. K.

Lapnam, of Chicago, representing the National Association of Tanners and Hide and Leather Deal era, commenced reading a memorial on the subject ot branding, but the matter was deferred and made too special order for to-morrow, and the convention adjourned. A EEPOSTES AJSgATT.TTv Dastardly Worst of Four Young Bloods' at LoqinTillc Their Prompt AnesU Loms villi, Nov. 20. Joseph Alsha-ler, a well known and popular Courier-Janr-nal reporter, was cowardly attacked and seriously woun Jed to-night by Howard Davis, Jesse MoComh, Charles Shrlor, and Wash Davis, sons of rich parents here. Alahnier knew none of the parties, and was harrying' ont Fourth street, when the four drunken dadee seised him and began beating; him.

Knocking' him down, they kicked and pounded him, and Howard Davis plunged a knife into his back, slashed him across the arm, then dragged him into a saloon and left him. The parties were all arrested and an Sort was made to hash np the matter with money, but they will be prosecuted. Much indignation prevails over the unprovoked assault, whiqh waa without cause. JACX 8tEYHa WILL HOLD OH. As tho term of Joha Stephens, Clerk of tbe Criminal Court, expires on Monday next, whilf the amendment to the statute regard thereto' provides for so election to fill said office ontQ next November, a little flurry of inquiry as to what is iha proper status of tbe question pervades Criminal Court circles.

"What do yon think soon ity wss the question put te States' Attorn Grinned yesterday by a reporter for The Ixtxb Ockam, and the question elicited the following answer: "I looked ths matter over some time ago sad examined the eonatttatioa and tbs statotes of tbe Btste coveting ths election law, aud have come to the conclusion that as the Legislature had failed to make any provision for ths election in November. 1Sj. tor tbe election of a clerk to fill the place of tbe present Criminal Court Clerk, sacfa clerk could be apoolnted only by the Governor of the State or by the judges ss judges of the Criminal Court, and ths more 1 investigated ths matter the more waa I disposed to believe, although I may be mistaken, that the Governor had no authority i tbe premisei, but that the court, having control and jurisdiction over Its own records, and politic, like nature, abhorring a vacuum, could appoint a man to fill the plaoe during the year notrrovided for, and in this connection I mav sav that I am desirons that Mr. Stephens should be appointed to the place, should it be determined thst some one must be appointed. If I have any thing to ssy about it.

Criminal Court Clerk Stephens was tben inter-Tiewed on the subject. "Jack" wss decidedly conservative, and stoutly stuck to tbe dictum of Tat Inter Oceak. declared in one of Its editorials several weeks ago, to tbe effect that. In accordance with the general ruie in such case, the present clei of the Criminal Court ouij bold over until bis aocsssor wss dilr eircied.
