A Disease of Mules Simulating Glanders.* * We shall be glad if you will kindly publish our report in your Journal, as we are unaware of any published description of the disease. We note on page 600 of Ostertag's “Meat Inspection,” third edition, 1907, that a pseudo-glanders bacillus staining by Gram's method was isolated by him from horses. It is to be noticed, however, that the disease investigated 'by us was confined to mules, although there were horses in the same stables, and that the Schneiderean mucosa was affected in all cases, whereas the cases from which Nocard isolated his organism presented only skin lesions.—A. 1. and D. L. E.
