Of that year. The construction officers
and workmen worked hard for two hours,
the same length of time that was spent on
the st. Paul, but the ship could not be got

HORSE MEAT
For the German Market Recommended /,
Consul Jingle.

Washington, March 31.-Edward s.
Tingle. United States consul at Bruins
| wick, Germany, in his report lust issued,
says:
I'm view OF the prohibition of German
markets to American cattle, there's an
| other direction toward which American
packers might well turn attention, and
that's the preparation and sale of horse
meat. While exact statistics as to con-
sumption of horse meat are difficult to OBJ
tain, it seems almost as great as beef or
mutton in the large cities of Germany.
In the smaller cities where there is some
prejudice against horse meats, the con-
sumption is about 80 per cent. of beef, but
in those places the use of horse meat is
growing daily. Its consumers are ex
| clusively of the poorer classes, and they
comprise nlne-tenths of the consumers of
the country Beef and other first class
meats cost 10 to 20 cents pound in Ger
many and are out of the reach of the aver
age workman, who receives rs cents CT
dollar day
The demand for horse meat in Ger
many, Mr.. Tingle states, has grown 20
such extent that it is beginning to he
difficult to supply it. Formerly the Ger
man butcher had little difficulty in pro-
curing for slaughter horses ether worn or
injured so as to be worthless, but the sup
ply of this class of animals is about ex-
hausted and horses for butchering now
cost $45 to $50, where formerly they could
be had from a to $40. The consequence is
the butcher finds he must raise prices.
Mr.. Tingle says horses can be raised in
the United States much cheaper than cat
tie. They can be slaughtered by any
American slaughter house as easily as
cattle and can be shipped alive across the
sea much more easily than cattle and can
be sold either on the hoof or dressed
at a price certainly greater than
seven cents pound. The meat
is consumed in Germany in both the sailed
and smoked state. with the astonish-
ingly rapid disuse of horses in America"
says Col Tingle, their raising especially
in the West, is far from being the profita-
Bile industry it was. If ranchmen can
make the raising of horse for food profita-
BILE why should he not do it,"

MANGleD CORPSE
Thrown Down in One Of New York's Busiest
Avenues.

New York, March 3l.-At s O'Clock.
this morning. a man passing down Sixth
avenue saw suspicious looking bundle
inside the railing in front of No 75. He
saw human foot protruding from the
covering.
He Immediately ran to the police station
and told of the discovery, The sergeant
sent two men with stretchcr to bring
the bundle to the station house The
bundle was found to contain the dead
body Of a colored woman. Both legs
were cut off just below the knees and
placed alongside the hips feet downward.
Around the neck was piece of pink
gauze or cheese CLOTH about five feet long.
twisted to serve as a rope this was knotted
once over the windpipe and drawn so
tightly that the strain had broken it, 1t
was evident that death was caused by
strangulation. The arms lay across the
breast. tied with a section of clothes line.
A chemise and cheap black cloth skirt
were all the clothing. and there was
nothing to identify the woman. She was
apparently about 2S or 80 years old When
found the body was wrapped in large
piece OF canton flannel of old gold color
such as is sometimes used as piano cover.
An important discovery. in the estima-
ton of Police Captain Delany. was a
small bag of table salt and a small bottle
of dark fluid. These, the captain thinks,
may led to the detection of the murderer.
The surprising thing is that the body
could have been deposited where it was
found without attracting attention. That
is busy part of the avenue, especially
Saturday night, even up to Sunday morn
ing. The face did not look like that of
dissipated woman

Mass Meeting Of Waterville Enforcement
leaque.

Waterville, March 31.-(SpeciaD. -The
main body of the Baptist church was
filed at the mass meeting under the au-
spices of the Watcrville Enforcement
League, Sunday afternoon. The meet
ing was opened with singing, followed by
Scriptural reading and prayer by Rev.
Dr. Spencer. DR.. Pepper made a few re-
marks in which he explained the purpose
of the organization of the league and al
so reviewed very briefly some of the work
which had been done by the organization.
The chief speaker was Rev. w. +. Berry,
who was there to criticize the action of
the last years city government, more
particularly Mayor knauff, for the atti-
tude which it was claimed was manifested
toward the temperance question. lie was
glad for what had been done to lessen the
sale of liquor by the city government of
last year. for he had the figures that over
$1,000 less had been sold at the agency
than on the year before. and he also be-
lieved that no liquor had been sold on
Sundays yet he thought that if it could
be stopped on Sunday it could on the
other six days of the week. He said that
the statute law which required innholders
and victualers to take out a license and
come under bonds not to sell liquor had
been completely ignored. He made the
statement that the law was less vigOr-
ously enforced in Waterville than in any
other city in this county. He said that
he wanted t. understood that City
Marshal McFadden had made faithful
search on every warrant which he had
placed in his hand and stated that when
evor he went to the municipal court room
to swear out warrant, spies were watch
ing him and every seller on the street
notified at once. He added, "If anyone
here thinks they can find rum in these
places. just let them try it tomorrow" At
the close Horace Purinton made o few re-
marks in which he invited persons present
to join the league.
