WASHINGTON, ID. c., March 1T.-Jerry
Rusk has his mad up. He doesn't pre-
tend to be diplomatist, but he Is urR ing
on the state department that certain sep-
resentations be made to the foreign gov
ernments discriminating against the
American hog. He wants 1t done with
nj the vigor that cAD*6e Injected into
diplomatic correspondence. Uncle Jerry
says in effect to Secretary Blaine: 'Be
polite about 1t, but let them understand
that we are tired of their nonsense and
mean business" This relates to some
instructions said to be on their way to
Minister Phelps at Berlin. Secretary
Rusk was asked what he thought of the
alleged statement made by DIR. Won Boet-
ticher In the reichstag on behalf of the
German government to the effect that
the new sanitary measures adopted in
the United States were inadequate, and
therefore that the government did not
intend to rescind the prohibition placed
upon the importation of American hog
products. He said:
/ can hardly believe that such a state

or pretended ignorance OF the legislation
now In force in this country providing for
meat inspection. The last meat inspection
law passed by congress provides for the
most thorough and complete system OF in
spection possible, and it will be more thor
ough than that now in force In any other
country in the world. Not only will cattle
and hogs be examined Immediately prior to
slaughter, but l have the power to cause
post mortem examination to be made, and
In tho case OF swine microscopic examina-
tion all export hog products, and every pre-
caution that science can avail itself of to
detect disease will TO adopted. The certif-
cate issued by this government
after such examination will guarantee
that the animal from which the
product came was free OF disease. II an
ante -mortem examination and micro
scopic examination after death will not sat
isfy the German government of the purity
of our hog products, then 1t is simply be-
cause 1t purposely proposes not to be salts
fed with any system of inspection. This
government has long and patiently suffered
the imputation placed upon its meat prod
uct by foreign nations under cover OF Just
rived with this unjust discrimination
against our meat products and the false
statements as to their purity as the excuse
Tor prohibition must cease. Sach state
ments as imputed to DR.. Won BOetticher
will no longer be permitted to go unchal-
lenged by this government, and such redress
as the laws OF this country permit to be had
should in my judgment be enforced.

TORONTO, Ont, March 17.-The sensa.
tional termination OF . marriage that
took place in ST. Luke's Anglican church
last night is the talk of the city to-day.
At o'clock Fred w. Hall, of Cleveland,
o., and Miss Katie Warren, OF Ottawa,
were made man and wife with all the i'm.
pressive rites OF the Anglican church.
The bride and groom and invited guests
went back to Mr.. Warren's house, where
the wedding supper was laid out. The
guests had just sat down and merriment
was holding full sway when
friend Of the young lady beckoned to the
groom to come to the door Of the room.
Hall Immediately grew white and replied
nervously: us 1t me you want?" He
went out. The friend charged him, upon
information brought by q gentleman who
knew Hall, with being . married man
and having family. After some hesi-
tation Hall admitted that he had been
married In England, but claimed that he
had obtained divorce. The matter be-
coming known the greatest excitement
prevailed. and In the midst OF II, after
Miss Warren had given back the we'd
ding ring, Hall disappeared through the
back dour and has not since been seen.
It Is supposed that he left for Cleveland
on the night train. The young lady has
the sympathy OF every one, and steps
will at once be taken TO have the mar.
riage Nnnulled.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, March 17.--W. A. Pink
erton was actively engaged in the work
of prosecuting Hennessy's slayers, and
says the outbreak and lynching was
what he expected. Two weeks ago Mr..
Pinkerton was In New Orleans, and he
received assurance from over 100 of the
most prominent citizens that, II the cow
ardly murder was left unavenged by the
jury, the Italians would surely meet
their fate ut the hands of an angry pop
ulace. Mr. Pinkerton was present dur
ing the impanelfng of the jury, and as
serts that $50 Of the talesmen summoned
were in the power Of O'Malley and men
who would not stop at anything to re-
lease the prisoners. The prosecution
was aware Of this at the commencement
of the trial, but was powerless. Mr..
Pinkerton would not say how many of
O'Malley's friends succeeded in getting
on the jury.

much pleased to know that the conserva-

poets OF reciprocity treaties with Canada. l

cause it would make every Canadian farmer

agriculturalists along the border. What

want any reciprocity where the balance Is
