RETALIATION UN.
importation of Fresh American Beef and
Cattle Prohibited by Germany.

importation of Fresh American Beef and
Cattle Prohibited by Germany.
WASHINGTON, October 28.-The Ger
man Ambassador yesterday formally no.
tilted the Secretary of State that in con-
sequence of the introduction of Texas
fever by means of two shipments from
New York the importation OF fresh beef
and cattle from the United States to
Germany will shortly be prohibited. The
Department of State officials declined to
comment on the matter. 1t is thought,
however, that this marks the commence
ment of policy OF commercial retalia-
ton against the United States on ac-
count OF discrimination against German
beet sugar in the new tariff law, as 1t
seemed that no cattle affected with Texas
fever or any similar complaint could
have been shipped from New York as
claimed by the German officials. No re-
ports have been received which indicate
! that this disease or any other could have
recently been exported from the United
States. No complaints have been re-
ceived from other countries. The De-
| partment of Agriculture will be called
upon TO investigate the complaint made
| by Germany, and Secretary Gresham, il
is expected, will send a protest against
! Germany's action to that government
! through the American Ambassador a.
Berlin.

Held for the Full Amount.

New YORK, October 27.-Fred N.
Pauly, receiver of the California National
Bank at San Diego, CAL, secured YER
diet for $28, 104 to-day before Judge Wal
lace and jury in the United States Cir
cult Court against the American Surety
Company. The receiver sued for $25, 900
and interest from 1891, and the verdict
was for the full amount asked for. The
American Surety Company gave $25, 900
bond for the President of the bank, John
w. Collins, who was largely to blame for
the failure of the bank in 1891, The de-
Tense was that the company was not
liable under the bond, the limit of time
mentioned in the bond having expired
before the failure. A verdict of $l5 ,OOC
was recently obtailyl against the com
pany for the bono OF Cashier George n.
O'Brien OF the same bank.

HOTEL FIRE AT SEATTLE.
Sixteen Dead and Several wounded i'm
the West Street Hotel Fire.


SEATTLE, October 2S.-Sixteen dead,
several injured and the loss of $17, 725
worth of property are the results of the

Saturday morning. The fire was extin-
guished at 80 o'clock, and by 8 O'Clock
sixteen bodies had been taken out of the
ruins.
LIST OF THE DEAD.
Mrs. Otterson of California, aged 60;
Andy Otterson, her son, aged 49, Mrs.
j. Huffman of Falls City wife of far
mer; Mrs. J. II. HancheI of Role, Iowa,

both ankles broken, may de- Ed Have
lin, head cut badly, back hurt; G. b.
Johnson, hands burned.
The naturalization of some of the bodies
will not be complete for several days,
and in some cases probably never.
ORIGIN OF THE FIRE.
How the fire started is best told by
Spencer f. Butler, son of the proprietor,
who is night clerk: about l o'clock
this morning" said he, 81 went to the
kitchen, which is at the head of the
stairs, to get my luncheon. | lighted
coaloil lamp, and then l heard noise
downstairs and went to see what was
the matter. Then | heard the explosion
up stairs, and when ran up stairs the
kitchen was all ablaze. The lamp had
exploded, and the table, floor and walls
were on fire. l tried to put out the fire,
but could not do So"
STORY OF THE HOLOCAUST.
Butler raised the cry of fire, which
aroused the guests with whom the hotel
was crowded, and the rush for life fol-
lowed. 1t was not any too soon, for the
flames were fiercely rushing through the
long, narrow halls. The flames broke
DUB so suddenly and so tiercely that the
were taken by surprise, and
there was a wild panic men and women
jumping from the windows in all man
ner of attire. The iron sides of the
building prevented the escape of the
flames and made it a sheet-iron furnace,
in which the bodies of the suffocated
guests were literally charred to cnders,
many of them beyond Identification.

BRIGHT OUTLOOK.
Hawaiian Sugar Crop of Next Year Will
Be Success.

BE success.
SAN Francisco, October 30.-The out
look for the Hawaiian sugar crop of 1895
is very fattering. For years this indus
try has been in depressed condition.
This has been due in part to successive
seasons of drought. The dry seasons
have taught the sugar growers a lesson.
Most OF them no longer depend on the
elements alone for their water. I'M
mense reservoirs for the storage of water
have been built in the mountains, where
the rainfall is always very heavy. From
these reservoirs the water is conducted
to the plantations across hills and sandy
places by means of wooden or iron aque-
ducts, in some cases as far as forty miles;
For one the Hawaiian Commercial and
Sugar Company has expended nearly
$3.50, 900 in the development OF its water
supply this year and now has over
seventy miles Of bitches. The sugar
crop OF 1894, which will begin to come
into the market very soon, Is estimated
at $50, 900 tons.
