WASHINGTON, March 24.-There is
an intimation of the levying of in
creased taxes on American imports
into Jamaica in copy of the annual
message to the legislative council of
the governor of that island, trans
mitted to the department. by United
States Consul Eckfort, at Kingston.
The significant paragraph reads:
The withdrawal of the government
of the United States of America from
the reciprocal arrangements with this
colony entered into in 1891, and the re-
imposition of the duty on sugar, leaves
us free to restore to our tariff some of
! the sources of revenue abandoned un.

FOUGHT THE SALE OF OUR MEATS
Agrarian Party of Germany Caused a
Good Deal of Trouble.

Washington, Jan. lit is stated at
the agricultural department that the
agricultural or agrarian party in the
German empire brought about prohibit
ton of the importation to Germany of
live cattle, dressed beef, canned beef
and other meat products from the
United States Secretary Morton says
the canned beef proprietors are protec-
tiOnists who teach McKinleyism and
high duties. They desire, he says, to
exclude all competition which may arise
from the fertile lands of the United
States. In proof of his position the sec
rotary gives out the following extract
from the morning edition of Dec. Z,
1894, No. 572 of the Kreuz Neu Vissische
Zeitung, published at Berlin, which is
the acknowledged organ of the agrarian
interests:
Business firms of Hamburg interest

TRAIN ROBBERS MADE A MISTAKE.
Forgot TO Take the Express Car Up the
Track to Loot 1t.

Camden. Ark, Jan. six masked
men made an effort to rob the north
bound Cotton Belt train 10 miles south
of Camden at IL p. m. The object was
to secure the express money. The train
stopped as usual TO take water and the
negro porter got off the train to go
around to the tank to let the water on.
He was stopped by a Winchester in his
face and ordered to uncouple the cars.
This order was obeyed. The engineer
was made to run up the track from the
train a distance of half a mile. The
bandits discovered too late that they
had made a waterhaul, taking the bag
gage car instead of the express car.
They had to grin and take their medi-
cine and go to the woods. The leader
told the engineer that he had the laugh
on them, but would see him again. The
work was SO quickly done that the pas
sengers did not know what was going
on until the would-be robbers had found
refuge in the dense forest

are Of the opinion that Texas fever has
no dangerous character and is not con-
tagiuus at all II is to be hoped that
Hamburg gentlemen will be mistaken
II they are of the opinion that this opin-
ion. which from their standpoint is
easily explained was shared by respon-
sible authorities. The Hamburg bust
ness interest was warned when il formed
the idea several months ago Of replac-
ing the expectation Of human beings
(emigrants) with the importation Of
cattle. The conservative and agrarian
press had already at that time called
attention 10 considerations against 1t
on account of the danger of infections.
but, as is always the case, no impression
was made.
THE new course (Caprivis) had ham
pered business in so far as it was not of
an agricultural character to such an ex-
tent that business people had an idea
they might do anything. Therefore the
cattle steamers were built and the ball
began to roll. That this proposition,
coming sooner than anybody could have
anticipated, is disagreeably felt We are
ready TO believe. but we are all the same
convinced that Hamburg business in
terests will bear this loss better than
German agricultural interests could
bear the importation of dangerous and
contagious diseases, and we therefore
hope, as already stated, that
the English travellers experience Of
the Hamburg export will be shelved
with records as valuable material in
Berlin and elsewhere"
