REGREENING OF VEGETABLES.
French Industry that Has Reached
Dangerous Proportions.


Dangerous Proportions.
1t may be superhuous task to paint
the lily or to gid the refined gold. but
the regreening of vegetables has as
suned the proportions of a gigantic
industry. which has its headquarters
in France, gives employment to 20. 600
persons, and represents q business OF
40, 00o 600 francs.
Nine-tenths at least Of the green
preserved vegetables sold in France
or abroad are said to be regreened
with sulphate of copper to give them
the appearance of freshness.
According to the British Medical
Journal the Glasgow health committee
have decided that as the French
Government have annulled their re-
greening prohibition, it remains for
consumers to take care of themselves.
"A foolish British public" saws the
Glasgow report, expects to get green
peas at Christmas such as it gets from
the market gardens in summer. The
French manufacturer makes them to
suit his within. The consequence is
that it eats stale peas greened with
sulphate of copper all the year round.
A curious fact is said to be that the
largest sale Of preserved peas takes
place in that period of the year when
fresh peas are in season.

nothing lately about the Banks avenue

Another Old Soldier Made Happy.

During three years of the late war was
member of Company 1, One Hundred and
Forty-ninth Regiment, Pennsylvania Volun-
teers, or Second Bucktaila In the second
year of service I contracted chronic diar-
rhoea, which has clung to me ever since, and
in addition to this I was shot through the
body near the small of my back (in the bat
tie of the Wilderness). One of the lasting
effects of this wound is such that during
attacks of diarrhoea I have no retaining
powers over the movements of my bowels
I have used many remedies, but up to Au-
gust, 1889, I had supposed that there was no
remedy that would quite reach my case,
but since then myself and my family have
thoroughly tested Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and have
found it to be by far the best remedy we
have ever used for bowel complaint, and
without any hesitation whatever, cheer

RESTRICTIONS RIDICULED.
The Prohibition on the Importation of
Cattle Severely Criticized.
rBY CABLE TO THE DIsPATcH.l

lBY CABLE TO THE DISPATCH.1
LONDON, June 13.-Mr. Chaplin, Minister
of Agriculture, continues to be haunted, or
processes to be possessed, with fear of the
cattle disease. Colonel Cody's bufaloes are
to be quarantined on arrival from the Conti-
nent, and the Minister has caused an i'm
mense Inconvenience by ordering that no an
imal shall be sent from any district, sched-
uled as diseased by the Board Of Agricul-
ture, to this years show of the Royal Agri-
cultural Society at Doncaster.
Plain words were spoken about MI. Chap
lin and his proteges at the annual dinner
of the political economy circle of the Ma
tional Liberal Club last night when Mr.. Al
fred Mines, the well-known authority on
the subject, read paper entitled Foreign
Cattle as Food Supply and the Recent At
tempts at Protective Restriction"
Mr.. Mines contended that if trade in the
line of cattle should be destroyed the dead
meat trade could not adequately replace it
and the audience, which included many
members of Parliament, heartily agreed
with him. He further declared amid ap-
proving cheers of his hearers that the de-
sire to check the live cattle trade was due,
not to the fear of disease, bnt ';to scheme
to protect the stock farming interest which
bolstered up the tottering fabric of agricul-
tural rent"

Mayor to discuss the Situation and, if pos
slble, to devise remedy. All conceded,
even the officials, that the people had grleV.
anees, but all thought that the action that
the city took in the matter looked too much
like persecution of the railroad company.
The meeting was largely attended by the
representative citizens and committee ap-
pointed to wait upon President William d.
Vanderbilt and lay the matter before him;
The committee went to New York and
found Mr.. Vanderbilt anxious to open
negotiations that would lead to relief Dotn
to the company and the city. The matter
was fully discussed and a plan OF action
laid out.
A few months after a plan for elevated
tracks was submitted to the officials OF the
company that was found to be entirely
practicable. The New York Central othclals
met the City Council and proceeded to con-
slider the details and amend the contract.
The Common Council took the grounds that
it had no right to enter into contract Tor
the city, and that the citizens committee,
having no legal status, could take no action
that would be binding by law, and after
long controversy over the matter II was
finally delayed for several months Inc
people, seeing that the railway authorities
were anxious to do something, demanded
that some action be taken at once, and
more meetings were held. The subject OF
depressing the tracks was broached, but de-
clared impracticable. Finally the necessity
of holding meeting with the railroad
officials, and constituting the citizens com.
mittee into body that should have Legal
force, became apparent, and the proceedings
finally took shape in bill drawn by the
best legal talent and taken to the State
Legislature.
Into Legal Shape at Least.
This bill became law April 23, 1850.
Commissioners were appointed and dele
gated with full power to execute contract
for the city. The scope Of their labors was
explicitly defined They were to agree with
the railroad company on a change OF grade
of all or any parts of the tracks in the city;
on the manner in which such tracks were to
be carried over or under the streets; on the
changes in the width of grade of any street
for the purpose of efecting such improve
ments, and to grant the railroad company
the use of such streets, lanes and alleys as
might be needed to prosecute the work.
The committee also had full power to
close such streets, or parts of streets, as the
exigencies of the undertaking might de-
mand; to employ a competent person to

FROM STEAMSHIP TO JAIL.
AN AMERICAN ARRESTED AT GER
MAN PORT FOR LARCENY.

Hamburg-American Officers Refuse to
Allow Scotland Yard Officials to Board
Their Vessel at Southampton-English
Police Greatly Incensed at Their Action.
rBY CABLE TO THE DIsPATCH.l
LONDON, June 13.-True W. Holt, alias
E. T. Shaw, passenger aboard the Nor
MAMMA, must have heaved sigh of relief
when the big steamer, after putting into
Southampton water Thursday night, sailed
out again without any inquisitive person
coming aboard to make inquiries for him.
His satisfaction was of brief duration,
however, for on the arrival of the steamer
at Cuxhafen this morning, German detec-
tiyes boarded her and arrested him on the
charge of larceny preferred against him by
the Wellsbach Gaslight Company, New
York. The revulsion of feeling was so great
that Hoit's dark complexion turned to
ashen gray, and he almost tainted in the
policemen's arms
A reporter learned that warrant was OBJ
tanned at the Bow Street Police Court late
Thursday for the arrest of Holt, alias Shaw,
on cable requests from New York, which
also promised the dispatch of the necessary
documents to justify It by the next
mail The London police authorities
communicated WIFI Sule1 SOusGdulo
Clay, of the Southampton police, and In
spector Moore, of Scotland Yard, went
down to southampton with a warrant. To
the astonishment and indignation of those
officers, the Hamburg-American people re-
fused to allow them to go on board the ten
der or on the Normannia.
The United States Consul was communi-
Gated with, and kilograms were sent to Scot
land Yard, as 1t appeared the steamer people
acted within their legal rights. Cablegrams
were sent to New York suggesting that the
United States Minister in Berlin should be
instructed to act. The suggestion was so
promptly acted upon that almost before the
Normannia had left the Solent the warrant
had been issued in the German capital and
detectives were on their way to that port to
execute it.
The conduct of sthe neutrality-suspicious.
people has greatly irritated the English
police, who fear that if they continue such a
policy, and the fact becomes publicly known,
all fugitive American criminals will travel
by that line, and business legitimately be-
longing to Scotland YARD, will bestransferred
to the foreign police.

New Uses for Electric Light.

Some of the conditions to which the use
of the electric light gives rise have gro
tesque phase. In town in Connecticut a
new industry has sprung up. 1t appears
that the strong light of the arc lamps has
the effect of attracting worms out of the
earth. An ingenious boy conceived the
idea of turning this peculiar phenomenon to
account, and scooping up the worms into a
basket nightly, he started trade with the
local fishermen for the bait which they are
always glad to get. The youngster was in a
fair way to fortune when the secret of his
quiet little business was discovered, and
now groups of BOYS with tin cans can be
seen every night at work under the electric
Lights in the development of this new
branch of commerce.
But while enabling bait to be thus secured
for the fishermen, the electric light is actu-
ally bait itself for the many moths and
bugs which fly by night. The English spar
row has been quick to take advantage of
this, and numbers of the little hustlers can
be seen waiting for the street lamps to cool
after the current has been turned off in the
morning. Presently there is futter and a
rush, and sometimes as many as half dozen
birds are inside the globe struggling for the
fat and tender morsels which it contains.
Since the discovery of this bonanza on the
part of the birds, the entomologist, who has
come to rely greatly on the same source of
supply, must be up early if he would save
his rare specimens from being served up to
hreak fast
