AGAINST AMERICAN PRODUCTS.
Evaporatea Apples Under the German Bar

Evaporated Apples Under the German Ban.
WASHINGTON, May Sit appears
from report made by our consular
agent. Krausse, at Seitau, Germany,
that American meat is not the only
product of the United States which
has fallen under the ban of German
consumers. American evaporated APP
plies have been condemned in German
journals to such an extent that the
demand has fallen off perceptibly. 1t
was stated that these apples were
sufficiently impregnated with oxides of
zinc as to make their use dangerous.
The authorities filed complaints against
grocers for violating the food laws by
knowingly selling apples contain
ing zinc. Two cases were brought for
submitted statement that the zinc
contained in apple jam made from dry
apples was about one-ffth of the
amount of that mineral which might
be given to an infant without nausea.
But at this time, Krausse asserts that
the Germans object to taking any food
impregnated with zinc, and the result
is American apples are not in demand.
He says the only way apples can be
restored to favor is by showing that
they are absolutely pure and by
packers being careful to see that zinc
is not mixed with them, either from
the drying pans or for other purpose.

SITUATION IN NICARAGUA.

Bitter Feeling Against Great Britain.
MANAGUA, Nicaragua, via Galveston,
May 10. There is no longer any doubt
that G cat Britain viii receive her
smart money on time. The fifteen
thousand pounds sterling to be paid by
Nicaragua to Great Britain has been
raised here by popular donations.
Three German mercantile firms have
given about 1000 pounds, and the
whole amount will be ready to be paid
in London in few days. The raising
of the money, however, has only
increased the popular feeling in
Nicaragua against Great Britain, and
the feeling now is very bitter; indeed.
more SO, if possible, than when the
British landed at Corinto. The general
opinion seems to be that the Central
American republics will form a COM
bination, possibly secret, against Great
Britain, and that everything possible
will be done to exclude British goods
from Central America. This feeling
will probably result in commercial
gain to the United States. There is no
doubt, however, that the action of the
three German firms in subscribing so
literally to the indemnity fund will
prove good stroke of business to
them. The United States steamer
Alert arrived few days ago at San
Juan del Sur from Panama.

EASTERN SITUATION.

Hone KoNG, May s.--Five thousand
troops have started from Canton to
Formosa to suppress the anticipated
opposition Of black flags against the
occupation Of that island by the
japanese under the terms of the treaty
of peace between China and Japan.
The troops are considered unreliable
and may join the black flags.
LONDON, May s. A dispatch from st.
Petersburg to the Times says that the
Russian government is satisfied with
Japan's reply to the protest of the
powers and regards the incident thus
far closed. Russia IS evidently glad to
get out of a very awkward position
without haggling as to the particular
form of language in which Japan
agrees to refrain from annexing the
Lao Tung peninsula. The Russian
military preparations in the ia east
have been suspended in accordance
with the orders from the war office.

Parts of the Old Walls and Beautiful

DR.. Bliss is having good success in
fulfilling the task of locating the an
cient walls of Jerusalem, which he has

over 1000 feet the southern wall of the
city, which was probably one of the

DR.. Bliss came upon a large drain.
Above this he discovered the pavement
of a street, which he followed by it's
regular paving till he came upon the
remains of a gateway. Four sills, all
footworn, one above the other, repre-
~senting four periods in the history of
the gateway, We're found, and the
sockets in which the gates turned. DR..
Bliss thinks this an important find, for
he takes the gate to be the Dung Gate
of Nehemiah and the Gate of the Els
senes, mentioned by Josephus.
Another important discovery has been
made near where DR.. Bliss is eXcavat-
ing A storm the other day blew down
a door, which for years had been fas-
tened against the wall, and a votive
tablet to Jupiter inscribed in Latin was
laid bare. The tablet had been set there
by the third legion on behalf of the
greatness and prosperity of the EN-
peror Trajan and the Roman people.
Workmen digging the foundations for
a new house the other day by the Da-

On the following day we discovered
the entrance to a beautiful grotto, which

While feasting our eyes on the beau

to where three dark passages led deep
err into the bowels of the earth, the cen

the others turning off respectively to
the right and left.
We took the middle one, which was
about ten feet wide and as many high,
and arched at the beginning with near
ly as much regularity as if cut out by
the hand of art.
After advancing few PAGES we
found it gradually narrowed, and began
to descend somewhat abruptly, the
air becoming more damp and heavy.
Presently it expended into long, low
hall of solid rock, which, unlike the
first apartment, was dark and gloomy,
affording the widest contrast.

six passages leading off in as many diff

that at first we were compelled to stoop
and then to crawl forward on our hands

We kept on in this manner for some
distance, and then the passage enlarged
and led up a steep ascent.

a clear bed, and fell down, with sud-

dark abyss that was frightful to be-

AS we stopped and contemplated this
wonder of nature with the lurid torch
lighting up the awful scene, suddenly
perceived what appeared to be several
bright sparks of fire in the bed of the
stream.
AS the depth of the water was only
a few inches, I fixed my eye on one,
