NO AMERICAN BEEF.
Germany Very Much in Earnest
on That.
Nevertheless II Is Stated That the
Measure Is Not One of
Retaliation.

BERLIN, Oct 27.-On receipt of the news
of the prohibition by the Hamburg and
Lubeck Senates of the entry of American
cattle and fresh beef at those ports. the
Associated Press correspondent made in
qairies at the American embassy and the
German Foreign Office respecting the
political aspect Of the prohibition,
and was assured both by the latter
bureau and by Embassador Runyon him.
self that the measure was In no wise in
tended to be a retaliatory one and was
adopted only as sanitary precaution. at
the Foreign Office the correspondent was
told that retaliation against the American
sugar tariff would be resorted to only as
last eXpedient.
HAMBURG, Oct. 27.-The Sen ate to-day
published decree prohibiting the impor-
tation of American live cattle and fresh
beef, on the ground that two cargoes con-
tanned several animals suffering from
Texas fever. Consignmenis which are
proved to have left America by October
81 ars exempted from these provisions,
but the animals imported must be killed
at the abattOir here Immediately after
landing.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.-To-day the fol-
lowing telegram was sent the Secretary of
State:
Referring TO your communication In regard
to The prohibition of American cattle aud fresh
beef by Germany please represent TO the Amer
can ambassador that Texas fever Is not commu-
ncated by diseased cattle; So even II the report
ed discovery of this disease be true. there is no
danger TO German cattle.
Also that meat Of cattle affected by this
disease has never been shown TO b. dangerous
TO consume. This Government inspects all
meat exports and certines the cattle were free
from disease when slaughtered. Vigorous pro-
test should the(Store be entered against the
proposed action. CHARLES w. DABNEY,
Acting Secretary of Agriculture.
| 1t is said at the depaI tment that it
would be extremely improbable that di :
eased cattle could have been shipped, as
all expectations are absolutely prohibited
from the zone In the southern section of
the United States where the disease ap-
pears. and rigid inspection of the sys-
tenn would prevent such cattle from reach
| ing New York or Eastern ports.
II is admitted to be within the bounds OF
possibilities that some catl--cars, with soil
and water from Texas. might have gotten
to the Northwest and thus caused one Oh
two cases OF fever, but it is said to be very
! improbable.

terror. Governor Mckinley of Ohio took
tour through the State. while Governor
Flower will begin his trip Monday.
During the early part of the week many
Democratic conferences were held, it was
said. solely in the interest of harmony.
Senator Faulkner came here from Wash
ington with the avowed intention of
uniting the cOntending factions if pos
sible, the object of the controversy
between the Grace and Tammany Demo-
Gratis b. ing the Congressional nominees in
several districts. So far as indicated the
question of harmony was left TO right
itself, as no concessions were allowed on
either side. Senator Hill left here a few
nights ago, however having first expressed
himself as perfectly satisfied with the
course events were taking.
The situation in State politics is prac-
tically unchanged from that of the open
ing of the fight. The most important of
the days incidents was Colonel Strong's
reception of the district leaders of the
German-American Reform Union at his
headquarters in the Sturtevant House late
this afternoon. Its special significance
lay. in his speech to the German reformers.
Active supporters of Colonel Strong re-
gard the expressions in his speech in re-
gard to excise laws as likely to have a
powerful effect in securing to him the vote
of the Germans of all factions who are
not regularly allied with Tammany.
The most interesting piece of news al
Democratic State headquarters in the
Park-avenue Hotel to-day was statement
made by a prominent politician who did
not wish his name mentioned in connection
with it. He quoted Francis Lvnde Sfesor

 The amiable policeman who stood at the door of w. E. Hall & Go. Saturday must have had an object lesson of the effect a fire sale can have upon the minds of the public. The excitement and eagerness which some people showed to get into the big store at times bordered upon frenzy. The policeman told BEE reporter that he had great difficulty in keeping back the crowds who surged all day and night long in front of the store. This sale stands without doubt one of the most celebrated bargain sales in the history of dry goods selling in Bridge port. w. B. Hall S5 Co. estimate that fully 25.000 people passed through their doors from I o'clock until 10 and that they were buyers too and that the army of salespeople was wholly inadequate to cope with such an ocean of humanity. The first day of the great fire, smoke and water sale passed off, however, without a hitch and was ably handled by opening the store doors at intervals of 15 min utes apart, allowing those who had com. pleted their purchases to pass through a rear door into Fairfield avenue.

than it's share of sudden deaths and other unpleasant casualties. The shock of one scarcely dies away before another occurs. The death of Mrs A. w. Perry on Friday last was so untimely and sad as to make a profound impression on the community. For a considerable time she has been a great sufferer from neuralgia, for the relief of which she had used all anodynes, including chloroferm inhala- tions. On Friday, just before noon, she retired to her room to get some rest. Wetting cloth with chloroform she laid down on the bed, as she had often done before. Whether due to prolonged in- halation or an unusually weak condition, she was overcome and not discovered for nearly an hour. Friends in the neighbor- hood and a physician were summoned, but too late to avail. The husband and two little daughters returned home late in the afternoon, to receive Q terrible shock. The sympathy of the whole con- munity goes out to them. The funeral services were held on Tuesday afternoon in the Congregational church, Rev MT Child officiating. The church was filled with sorrowing friends. The floral tributes were magnificent and profuse. The bearers were E. w. 5. Pickett, w, M. Bulkley, James H.
