THE new German tariff on cereals imposes
tax of 1917 cents per bushel on American
wheat, while Russia wheat will be admitted
at lower rate. Last year the United States
shipped to Germany $50, 600 bushels Of wheat
and 81, 062 barrels of wheat flour, valued in
all at something over million dollars. The
best foreign customers for American farm
ers are Great Britain and Ireland. Our prin-
cipal exports thither last year in the line of
breadstuffs were, in round figures, as follows:
Corn 20, 400, 600 bushels, SIG, 400, 900; wheat
"A. 700, 900 bushels, $4,000, 900; wheat -four
$500, 900 barrels, s3l, 900, 600; oat meal 23,-
600, 900 pounds, $500, 900, or total of $780,
100000. Compared with this our export of
breadstuff to Germany sinks into insignifi-
canoe, aud the German high tariff will hurt
nobody but the people of Germany, who Will
have to pay more for their staff Of life Eng

Dodging State Quarantine.

WICHITA FALLS, Tex, March Arrange
ments have been cousummated whereby
Texas cattle for the Northern market will be
shipped TO Harold, the new terminus Of
the Fort Worth IL Denver railway; thence
on the drive north to Caldwell
and Hunniwell on the south line of Kansas
and thence by rail to destination. Those for
Colorado, Wyoming aud the Northern terri
tories will go from Harold by way of a neu-
trial strip, north by its panhandle and thence
north to their prospective destination. This
settles the outlet for the cattle drive this
year and saves the stock interest from being
seriously crippled through the quarantine
regulations in Kansas and other states.

The report published in a morning con-
temporary that the Wisconsin Central COM
pany had purchased the st. Paul, Four Lakes
u White Bear railroad, which as yet is only a
road on paper, is denied by General Manager
Finney of the Central. The privileges al
lowed by the charter of the White Bear line
would give the central a right-of-way into
st. Paul independent of the st. Paul & Du-
luth road, which it now utilizes for that pur-
pose, but Manager FinneY says his company
has not purchased the property, has not at
tempted to purchase it and has no desire to
purchase it. This statement he makes in
contradiction Of the reports published.

Three gangs of surveyors are at present

have not hesitated to say that they were en-

surveying parties were at work in North Park,

their company has surveyors at work in

THE New York Dial completed its first an
nual revolution last Saturday and has estab-
lished itself as one OF the permanent fixtures
in metropolitan journalism. The success of
the Dial in field so well filed with high
class newspapers has been rather phenom-
email. The secret of its success is told in its
own columns in the following words:
New York people are fast becoming thinking
people as well as reading people. They do not
take paper to tell them what they shall think
and do, as the old school papers still persist in
thinking. But they want first, the facts as they
exist; second, they want them in fresh, humor-
ous. condensed form; third, common sense, In
teligent, progressive criticisms upon the news
OF the day; and fourth, discussion of the new
issues of the times from an advanced standpoint.

AH agreed to the Adrance Rates.

CHICAGO, March 17.-The advance in
east-bound passenger rates from Chicago,
which was agreed upon Monday by all of the
lines except the Baltimore & Ohio, is now
assured. Advices were received yester-
day from E. Il. Lord, general passenger agent
of the Baltimore e. Ohio, concurring in the
action taken by his competitors and Mr..
Moore will probably tod " notify all the lines
accordingly In his telegram Mr.. Lord ex-
presses willingness to attend a meeting
for the purpose of adopting an iron-clad
agreement for the maintenance of rates. The
general sentiment, however, seems to be
averse to discussing the many delicate ques
tions involved in such q covenant, most of
the lines preferring to let well enough alone
and be content for the present with the adj
yancement of rates and simple agreement
to maintain them, allowing payment of the
commissioners and other problems to await
solution until later day.
